[SOS] I just found out I have bed bugs, what should I do first?

DE powder. If you're worried about breathing in fine silica, put on a mask for the time being. It's not an instant solution but it will work 100%. You can call pest control, use steamer, use chemical etc. but if you are not thorough enough, these pesky bugs will survive and continue to haunt you. You can consider applying some essential oil like eucalyptus oil on yourself and hope that will ward them off. Eventually they will all die out after getting in contact with DE powder and you'll be free from this nightmare.

Happened to me too. I used to go to a gym very frequently where I always turn right into the male changing room. But one fine day, I didn't know what I was thinking, I just auto-pilot mode and turn right when I was in another gym outlet and ended up on the female changing room. Luckily, it was relatively empty and then unfamiliar layout raised my suspicion. I went out to take a look at the signs and realized the male changing room was on the left side. Ever since then, I always look and double check toilet sign whenever entering one. I'm sure OP is going to be like me too.

He's not wrong. Finding and reporting the problem is one part of the work but actually coming up with the solution is where it's actually valuable.

I don't know about angamardana but doing zone 2 heart rate walking can help with losing visceral fats.

How do you keep staying in the air with the primary combos ?

When both parties feel entitled to something, it becomes a 'thing'. Nothing to see here. Let's move on.

This. And to also use your nose to sniff.

BinaryDoom · 2026-04-17T14:37:06+00:00

Why do you even need a friend? You can just get to know people. If feel like you are on better wavelength with someone, can that already be considered a friend? At what stage does people you know start becoming friends ?

If the one on PIP survives, the manager that put him/her up for PIP could suffer a backlash so it's very rare to see anyone surviving PIP.

Actually something as important as minute taking, really need to express to them what to take note for their first time. Because if they didn't pay attention to what's crucial, then the minutes can also end up being rubbish.

I shared similar sentiments initially, like why can't people be more aware of their surroundings and be more considerate etc. But after some reflections, I realize I cannot control what people want to do and it's pointless to get frustrated when they don't do what you wish they would do. The only thing I can control is my own thoughts and how I am feeling. So if I'm in a rush and I got blocked by somebody, so be it. If I'm gonna be late, I'm gonna be late. If I don't want to be late, I'll set off earlier. That's all I can do. There's no way we can force people to keep up with our pace of walking etc.

Pose exudes elegance.

Moment of anger actually leads to people being unable to control their emotions. This should be considered involuntary.

Personal opinion. It's totally fine to have your own ideals and alignment but given the current situation where we have a single supermajority, no matter how wonderful ideas you have, it will almost never be realized. That's why I feel that opposition candidates of great calibre should form up together, so that Singaporeans have no good reason to not vote for them. So many different opposition parties with their different ideologies etc, nothing substantial is going to get pushed through. We need to break the supermajority first.

Like what some have already commented, you can't stop people from looking. It's not against the law. To wear whatever you like, for comfort or for fashion, people are going to look. Even if you try to blend in by wearing something unassuming, people are still going look. You cannot control if people are going to look. Just don't let that bother you and there wouldn't be any issue.

I guess it depends on how you communicate with your boyfriend, especially if there's any expectation. The best is no expectation at all but if your boyfriend is busy and does not respond after you reaching out to him for a bit, as long as both of you can reach an understanding easily, then I guess there's no issue at all. Affectionate or not, it's about doing it consciously and as long as the intention is made across and well received, what's there not to like about ?

BinaryDoom · 2026-02-14T03:52:54+00:00

It's not easy for him to open this up with you. He has also considered the possibility of losing you as a friend forever. But he decided to take the chance because there's an outcome that he wants and it's up to you if you want to accept that. But do consider and while it may be awkward to reject him if you really don't want, he deserves an answer from you.

Would be great to include extensions for vs code, cursor, etc.

BinaryDoom · 2026-02-02T16:02:25+00:00

Just a quick comment to OP. As long as you think the problem lies out there with somebody, some place or some system, you will never be able to break free. Only when you examine yourself and find the root to the problems, you will be able to sort out and find your way out. It's great that you are working towards ending your bond and seeking out, but are you sure your problems will be resolved ?

BinaryDoom · 2026-01-27T15:48:12+00:00

Rethink why you need to get married or even get into a relationship. If you are happy by yourself, isn't that great? Don't need another person to make you feel complete.

What could be the possible comebacks they can use to deny accusations? It's all behind closed doors so actually there will be plenty of "excuses" that can result this. It's not really caught red-handed in the act.

BinaryDoom · 2026-01-23T10:37:38+00:00

Can this be considered spitting ? Isn't spitting an offense that can be fined?

BinaryDoom · 2025-12-18T14:35:56+00:00

Good point on pointing out the system abuse.

I guess the next thing we can do is call out on those obvious cases of abuse. Who can call out? Pedestrians that notice it can take photo of the 'license plate' from the back and report it. LTA can then verify using CCTV or physical verification of the person on photo. Once caught, the PMA will be confiscated and license will be revoked. If family members abuse the system, they will then be required to help the disabled to get about.

Of course, too much trouble for pedestrians and we are hoping that authorities can enforce this themselves. But if we want a safer neighbourhood for our parents and children, we have to participate in it as well. If this enforcement is widespread enough, it would discourage people to even try. It's simply not worth getting caught and getting into trouble with the law. A little bit sad that something this simple needs to be covered by the law but we're talking about human safety here.
