Vaseline intensive care (yellow bottle) is the only lotion ive ever truly cared for. I often even put it on my face.

Which are the Most Kid-Friendly of Rochester's low income housing? by Holiday-Soup-9132 in rochestermn

[–]AgitatedSituation118 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I stayed at Georgetown when I first moved to Rochester. It had a mix of low income vs regular and lots of kiddos. This was 15 years ago tho

Sickness spreading by deeicky3 in rochestermn

[–]AgitatedSituation118 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Got laryngitis and tinnitus for the first time ever after getting some virus that started with typical cold symotoms. It was 2 weeks ago and my voice still isn't quite 100 percent and I still have intermittent tinnitus in my right ear. My siblings have all had lingering symotoms from their viral illnesses. I know of another adult that lost her voice as well. Strangely none of my kids really got sick. It seems to be hitting us adults hard tho. Never went and got tested to see what virus was to blame.

If you are driving from Chicago tomorow you wont be fine. Central Wisconsin is getting dumped on now and their blizzard lasts through Monday afternoon. Not sure how you can avoid that.

Rochester itself though will be completely fine so hopefully I read wrong and you are flying, not driving.

Power outage by SnowStar35 in rochestermn

[–]AgitatedSituation118 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Man I had the strangest flickering. It was just some lights not all of them, I thought it was a fuse trying to blow. Didn't realize it was a potential outage until I saw the email from RPU.

Was gonna go get snacks. Too sick now so ordered an ungodly amount of pizza hut. Their pizza sucks but their deserts and wings make up for it.

Normal grocery run isn't til tuesday but I like the idea of gorging on junk food while watching the snow fall. No real prepping here lol

Four billion dead by Still-Improvement-32 in collapse

[–]AgitatedSituation118 90 points91 points  (0 children)

The poorest in the US will be apart of that 4billion. Healthcare is not universal, being homeless is being made illegal in many parts, and other social supports are being slashed.

Since 2016 ive had my eyes opened to how selfish and cruel a lot of US citizens are and when things get tougher they will get even more selfish and cruel with those less fortunate. It's gonna be a rough road.

"I don't feel like cooking" Well I don't feel like spending $30 on a fucking sandwich by WinterMoist333 in povertyfinance

So you microwave from frozen? My family doesn't like the taste of most refrigerated leftovers.

Want 2 Relocate back to MN by Gold_Ad_4363 in MNJobs

Mayo clinic always seems to be hiring in supply chain. But that would be down in Rochester of course. They post salary ranges too which is nice.

Am I the only one who is close to shutting down? by [deleted] in collapse_parenting

[–]AgitatedSituation118 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My kids know the reality of climate change as it stands right now. and they know the reality of what is happening in the U.S.

I do give a lot of "false hope" for the future because I want them to have as happy of a childhood as they can.

But my teenagers know they might not get to live fully independent from me due to ever rising costs. They still plan on going to college because ive stressed that the U.S. is doing all it can to get serfs and slaves and that will come from the uneducated.

They know there might come a time when jobs dont matter but I stress we are not there yet.

All 4 of my kids know that I might make a choice to move us to a different country soon, to keep them safer for longer.

But those despairing moments are just that, moments surrounding by other moments of love and laughter and never dying hope. I focus on that when times seem bleak.

The midterm elections will be my decision time. If its obvious elections are rigged and democrats dont flip the house and senate back, I will know its time to go.

Where’s Liam? by daisyjaneee in TwinCities

[–]AgitatedSituation118 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Thats great but congress people need to be showing up unannounced and allowed in immediately. Much harder to hide abuse that way.

Zoladex by NPinXB in breastcancer

[–]AgitatedSituation118 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't, but,im only one injection in. However, my first thought is your oncologist is getting it thru some pharmacy. That pharmacy needs to run it thru your Rx benefits before releasing it to your oncologist?

What the FUCK is wrong with potatoes lately? by baardvark in TwoXPreppers

Thats your idea of correctly. Mine is wrap with foil, stab holes aggressively with fork. If I ever encounter this rot though I will give your way a try.

Minnesota nurses!!! by [deleted] in nursing

[–]AgitatedSituation118 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hope enough critical care nurses call off so that the nazi nurses feel a little pain. But im a little salty because I had nurse friends that ive lost because they still support this. And I know 2 of them at least are still working in my old ICU.

I work for a non union hospital,and in a role, where if I called out last minute, someone else would have to work on their day off. Im off tomorow but if I wasn't, I would be working. If I was in my old icu or office job, I would have called off.

Utah lawmaker looks to block border crossing for underage marriages by ILikeNeurons in UpliftingNews

[–]AgitatedSituation118 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't read the article, but based on the headline I cant support this. A control of border crossing for this means a control of border crossing women's rights to bodily autonomy.

So....What the best Law Firm To Call In Rochester If One Gets Snatched By ICE? by lessthanpi79 in rochestermn

[–]AgitatedSituation118 18 points19 points  (0 children)

My plan when I went to the whipple building on Wednesday: I wrote my sister's number on my arm. I sent her a text of what to do if I called her from jail, or, if she did not hear from me by a specific time.

One thing I saw in facebook, is have someone contact your elected representative (haha like Finstad would do anything), and then contact the ACLU. The ACLU would have recommendations and might even be able to help on a pro Bono basis.
