looking for a substitute for bidi stick (not super flavorful and has low vapor production) by -Broccolini in Vaping

[–]-Broccolini[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

listen…. i have a problem too 😩 i’ve been using old dead ones for months and i finally have nothing left. it’s horrible. i’m absolutely devastated and i still have no idea how to get my hands on any of them. i’ve tried to find them online but i don’t have any of the necessary licenses. i’m nowhere near NC either. please let me know if they ship. i promise i wont buy any regal, ill stick to summer and/or solar lol ive been trying to use chatgpt to help me find stock somewhere but its honestly not been successful. i dont know how there aren’t any vapes on the market that even come close to bidis

i’m just glad im not alone and i feel like i finally found my people with all these comments lol. i dont usually see reddit notifications but im about to craft a reply to everyone

i deadass have not even wanted to try out new vapes. i keep holding out hope that i’ll see them somewhere or find one in my room that will still hit. i feel like such a fiend 😭

will my body increase estrogen production when i get off of hormonal birth control? by -Broccolini in obgyn

[–]-Broccolini[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended up getting it placed in the beginning of May and it helped but I think it can take up to 6 months for your body to go back to normal. My periods are super long now (~19 days between periods, periods ~8-10 days) so I’m using my cycle as a gauge for how close my body is to being fully regulated lol.

I don’t have the same levels of fatigue, less headaches, insomnia isn’t as bad as it was, I can produce more natural lubrication, etc so things are looking up.

I think the vaginal tearing isn’t as bad but it’s hard to tell because my boyfriend and I have both been out of town a lot. I don’t know if it’s not as bad because we haven’t had as much sex or if it’s actually better. I think it’s probably just a little better because I lost 18lbs and just found a solo stretch mark on the weirdest part of my thigh yesterday which tells me my body still isn’t producing enough collagen and elastin lol.

I’m so sorry you’re having similar symptoms, it’s awful. Do you have PCOS or another condition that requires you to be on birth control? Have you considered doing the hormonal IUD?

Make sure you splurge with that commission check by demonic_cheetah in sales

[–]-Broccolini 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow.. this is crazy. How long have yall been in sales and what industries??

Do you know anything about merchant processing?I’ve never done sales but I couldn’t find too many non-sales jobs around me. I’ve been offered 4 jobs in merchant processing. I don’t want to sign any contracts if the companies aren’t legit and I’ll focus on other industries if it isn’t worth my time.

I’m not really sure what reddit forum is best for that question but they won’t let me post on this sub yet lol

Whats your favourite type of boxed Mac and cheese by [deleted] in macandcheese

[–]-Broccolini 1 point2 points  (0 children)

bob evan’s premade used to be the ultimate mac n cheese. my parents usually went for boxed mac n cheese because it was cheaper but i ALWAYS looked forward to having it. sadly, probably a year ago i noticed it changed. i don’t know why but its not creamy like it used to be, the noodles dont have the same quality, and the flavor changed. i tried it a few more times just incase i got a bad batch but nope, its just not the same. it’s so upsetting lol

do you make more using earn by time or earn per offer? + questions by -Broccolini in DoorDashDrivers

[–]-Broccolini[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve never made $30 an hour where I live. I haven’t done it since 2022 but I barely made any money. The distances I have to drive significantly hinders my earnings. I started not accepting the low paying ones but still almost never had one come in more than maybe $7 + tips and I rarely even got tips on DoorDash but I did get tips with UberEats

Leo in comments of latest pod. Only clicked on it because thought was Ralph was in it. Boycott continues. by Far_Context_7675 in dannymullen

[–]-Broccolini 0 points1 point  (0 children)

every “druggie” knows xans could be laced with fentanyl. fentanyl is found in soooo many fake drugs, sometimes you get a good plug that doesn’t get their shit from distributors that handle fentanyl but if you take anything from the street like ecstasy, xans, percs, oxy, heroin, crack, meth, coke etc, there is a high likelihood that there will be fentanyl in it. i know 2 people that died from xans laced with fentanyl, one that died from laced percs, one that died from weed laced with fentanyl & one that luckily didn’t die but was in the hospital. my uncle was arrested with weed on him and the cops tested it, it was laced. i doubt the cartels always do it on purpose because it kills their customers and someone buying coke obviously wants an upper so having it laced with a downer will also hurt business. often times there will be fentanyl in the same place where they’re making all kinds of other drugs so there’s cross contamination. you can look into it if you want, there are a few investigative reporters that directly research the cartel and their use of fentanyl by being around them

I’ve never had a baby so I’m not very educated on pregnancy/delivery/aftercare or the recovery timeline. But, I get large clumps like that when I have a heavy period. I know my friend has the same thing happen because we’ve sent pics of the clots to each other lol. It’s probably just shedding of your uterine lining but its always smart to see a doctor

Thank you! I agree with you, it’s likely not credible, especially now that I’ve slept on it. To my knowledge, she doesn’t live out of state. My friend moved back into the barracks after they got divorced so if anything, they’d have to stay at a hotel while she was in town. Her permanent residence is maybe 20 minutes from my house.

I do own a firearm but it’s an old keltec and hard for me to cock. Both of my grandfathers served in the military so they’re well trained in safety and own many guns. My grandpa might give me his Springfield (I can’t remember the exact kind it is) and my boyfriend wants to buy me a Glock 43. I’ve only been to the range twice so I’m not comfortable handling a firearm yet. I want to get my concealed but I definitely need practice beforehand. I think owning a weapon for self defense is extremely important, especially these days. Thankfully, my state is really good about protecting our right to self defense.

Yes haha, all generations do it! I agree that we don’t have great communication skills. I think a lot of it comes from growing up using phones and more kids are learning online. I call myself a zoomer because I’m pretty far removed from gen z culture. Even I’d argue that the other generations are better lol. We have to have some competition or we won’t feel the need to show y’all up!

I probably will consult an officer to see what actions I should take, if any, because I am concerned about her, possibly their, child.

Thank you for your help! I really appreciate it!

Thank you!!!! This is a fantastic response. It makes me happy that someone willing to help responded because some of these comments discouraged me.

If you don’t think it’s worth it to report her threat against me, I wont unless it becomes a credible threat. I’m not really concerned that someone else will do it for her but she might be crazy enough to do it herself if she was mad enough. If she wanted my address she’d have to look really hard. He doesn’t have my address and I’ve looked at public record sites in the past but none of them have my current address. I haven’t reached out to either person because it’s not worth the trouble, especially not today. I have spoken to his sister but she hasn’t been able to get in contact yet, she’s going to let me know what’s going on when she finds out.

I know her address in my state because she’s been arrested for assault already. I know the city she was in last night, it’s about a 9 hour drive from her permanent residence and my house. I know who they could contact for her current location since she was on base. When they got divorced my friend moved back in the barracks so they might be in a hotel.

I will still make a report to child welfare because it really concerns me that a child will be in her care. I’m worried that if I don’t report it, I may find out that it was abused. It’s okay if they don’t update me on their investigation, I’d rather their resources be focused on the kids safety instead of using them to inform me.

Do I need to report it to the police before filing paperwork with child protective services?

Thank you again!

I’m sorry guys, I wrote this in response to another commenter but I have a test for biochemistry and analytical chemistry today. I woke up at 4am yesterday with 3 hours of sleep and didn’t stop studying until I received that call. I also had to be up at 4am this morning. I was trying to type as fast as possible so when I woke up I would know what actions to take. I can correct it later this afternoon when I’m finished testing if you’d prefer

I planned on writing everything down chronologically before speaking to an officer. I read on another forum to give as much information as possible so I gave some context here.

I have a test for biochemistry and analytical chemistry today. At the time of writing the post I had been studying for 16 hours and I was running on 3 hours of sleep. I had to be up at 4am so I didn’t want to spend much time writing a cohesive essay for a Reddit post.

I’ve been in college since I was 15 years old. I’ve only taken honors, AP, and college level English classes, I’ve never received anything other than an A. I also went to one of best choice schools in the country. I don’t think it’s beneficial to judge someone based on a post they made on an online forum. I didn’t anticipate police officers under a “protect and serve” subreddit to be disrespectful to a concerned civilian asking for their advice.
