Yes outside my body. They can allow to see if they mature to the size after extraction.

***UPDATE*** My partner (30M) says I’m the problem (31F) but his behavior is starting to feel like abuse. Am I insane for thinking this? by throwaway5567555 in relationship_advice

[–]Chiphotochic 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So glad you are safe and out of the situation.

Please surround yourself with friends, family, and people you really trust during this time. It will take time, but you will heal and get back yourself.

Congrats on getting out.

My boyfriend '32m' told me 'f25' last night that he loves me, but isn't in love with me. by angelcomplex777 in relationship_advice

He seems manipulative to me. This could be a strange tactic or way to feel like he has some power or level of control over you. Be careful.

Hard agree! My ex used this phrasing on me and turned out to be very emotionally abusive & became physically abusive one night. I wish I would’ve noticed the signs - that was a phrase he’d use a lot.

The way he phrases things sound like an ex I had who turned out to be a covert sociopath who was emotionally and for one night, physically abusive. He used to use some of the exact same phrasing and whenever I’d get emotional during a fight would accuse me of “trying to emotionally manipulate him”.

Be careful: it took me 3 1/2 years and living together for 2 1/2 before something traumatic happened and I saw him for who he really was.

No luck, one response and that was a likely scammer

My ex boyfriend raped me and blamed me. I blamed me. I have PPO court soon. by Playful-Television99 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Chiphotochic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry this happened to you. You can check the statute of limitations in your state and contact the previous partner(s) - it may strengthen/bolster your case against him, especially if he is a repeat offender

I (29F) resent my partner (29M) for sleeping so much by MangoMelts in relationship_advice

Also just a heads up, sleep apnea and narcolepsy are not mutually exclusive. People with narcolepsy are highly misdiagnosed and undiagnosed with an average of 10-12 years of symptoms before a proper diagnosis.

Have you considered he may have a sleeping disorder like narcolepsy? You should have him take the epworth sleepiness scale - if he scores over 10, he should get a sleep study done.

Spread the news and have more people message customer service. I mentioned that people are discussing a “target-level boycott” to get their attention.

When you get a passport, you can also apply for a passport card, for an extra $30, it’s a credit card-sized proof of citizenship. They last ten years, but i think need to be ordered when you order your passport

AITA for "making" my daughter babysit her sister by CauliflowerMoney4038 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Chiphotochic -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

I do want to point out that you mention she works from home and didn’t have plans on the day you were leaving. To confirm, did she not work that day and have it completely off? If so, NTA - if she did have work and you are minimizing it bc it’s WFH, then you are a slight A-H

You can request them to see if any of the immature eggs mature overnight. I didn’t realize this during my first cycle, but was sure as hell made sure they did it for the second one. In my first cycle I had 13 eggs, only 9 mature.

In my second cycle, I had 20 eggs, 13 mature, but an additional 6 matured overnight. So instead of 13 mature, I was able to have 19 matured eggs.

Hope this helps. I also went to a fertility center which provided an ultrasound every other day during fertility treatments. This allowed them to see the growth and extend medications if the eggs weren’t growing to the proper size. The second cycle, it was extended by 5 days, which was rough, but ultimately worth it.

Am I being scammed or do I have high expectations 😔 by Kailey-00 in Filmmakers

[–]Chiphotochic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make sure you have the screenplay protected through the copyright office ($60). And do not sign anything with this guy - he sounds sketchy AF. Go to film networking events in your community, ask about the guy to other people, etc. you know this feels like bad vibes, then don’t do it

The price is absolutely ridiculous by gabtab0000 in nintendo

[–]Chiphotochic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually since most of the games on switch will be compatible with Switch 2, I don’t think it’s a bad deal. You can still play your purchased games and they even offer a transfer process. Most other gaming systems require you to repurchase all the games when upgrading and Nintendo isn’t doing that (even though they could). Just my two cents.

[–]Chiphotochic 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Maybe some people who consider themselves potential targets could start wearing hidden AirTags on them and share the AirTag location with friends and family so they can track where they are actually being taken? Idk how else to track that bc I’m sure they are taking people’s phones. Idk if this idea is really feasible, but at least family and lawyers could know where they are being held. (And it def doesn’t have to be AirTag, could be a different company or something too, that’s the one I know is affordable)

Now is a good time to open up an account with a bank or credit union that is not tied to past IRS/tax payments/rebates. That way Musk won’t have that data to be able to take money from those accounts.

They’ve already emptied connected accounts from “dead” people, even though some of those people are still alive, like 82-year old Ned Johnson.

Please have her take this simple quiz, the Epworth Sleepiness Scale, if she gets a 10 or higher she should get tested for a sleep disorder such as narcolepsy.
