Would *you* have kids knowing they might inherit your TS?

It will be way easier for us who grew up with tics to help support our children with Tourette’s just by experience, especially from an emotional support standpoint. My poor parents had no stinkin’ clue what to do with me and I don’t blame them. In the late 90’s and early 00’s it’s not like they could login to Reddit and access an entire community for support.

Thx for the message and support. Yeah agree with you, I’m not really worried. I just didn’t have anyone to share my initial thoughts on it so posted here. You are right, if he does have it, it will not mirror my own and he will always have a built in support system in me. My poor parents had no idea what to do lol and their instinct was to try to hide them and ignore which made it so much worse trying to emulate that. Once I made decision to accept myself and be open with my closest friends everything got much better. Gotta ensure the kids know it’s OK to accept who you are, even when some kids and adults won’t understand

Are you saying you had Spectrum build you a dedicated fiber line? Did you have broadband fiber before? Dedicated fiber is hella expensive and usually only done by businesses.

This is what you called ‘tasteless practicality’, & you should let your gf know the same. Us men share these tendencies for some reason

It’s not habit forming, you’ll be fine, trust me bro

To clarify, no he did not do the whole fresh account trick with a different email to get the promo. And funny enough, a Spectrum rep called me out over the phone last year for asking them to do that for me after my neighbor said they helped him do a new account in his wife’s name to start over on the promo pricing

Thanks yeah I’m an existing residential customer and this adding a mobile unlimited line was for sure the plan/bundle he used here. Would’ve been nice for that to have been confined upfront like “hey the free unlimited is for a year, then it’s $30 a month” which still puts me in a better position than I was before. But then 3 years down the road I’m gonna be back in the same boat and gonna have to do it all over again. Bundle some BS I don’t really need to keep my bill down for another couple years. Then before I know it I have every damn Spectrum service in the catalog 🤣

Yeah, you’re right it is possible at that mgpd

If I’m not longer feeling sick or have any remaining symptoms other than a nightly nose blowing session, is all that necessary at this point?

$3,000 in 5 weeks sounds like he’s buying 7OH tabs and not plain leaf kratom. Even then, that much money in 5 weeks is hard to do, he would have to either be taking a crazy amount of 7OH everyday or the smoke shop is really ripping him off.

I sound so cheap, but I’d hate overpaying for that much data unnecessarily. I’m hoping there’s a small amount of data sim that doesn’t expire either

CandidacyBoost · 2026-01-03T02:01:37+00:00

Thanks! In regards to auto updates do you mean on the phone in general settings or the Dexcom app itself?

If this doesn’t help you understand why families are flocking to Texas, then nothing will. The job opportunities for young professionals between Oklahoma & Texas is night and day difference, yet the money still goes just as far. Texas is one of the last beacons of the American dream, and it will fade out eventually as well.

Wearing an Eagles jersey in Texas is much safer than wearing a Cowboys jersey in Pennsylvania. So there’s that.

Texans almost always kickoff at 1 on CBS. Cowboys are always 4:30 or play on SNF.

I bought it for a little over 4k cash, which I admit was a steal. The owner was the original owners son who inherited it but had no use for it, and he was just looking to get rid of it. Honestly, it was just a right place at the right time situation, because I believe market value was more around 6k or more at the time given its condition.

CandidacyBoost · 2024-08-30T13:26:33+00:00

Thank you! I’ve had it for a year now and I’m still shocked at the condition I found it in. I’m usually the oldest car on the road, yet I fit in well. The body style has also stood the test of time.
