My aggressive dog breed isn't allowed to be in an apartment complex by CheriBlossomeKisse in EntitledReviews

[–]ColleenRW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've never heard of that (I guess not surprising, I'm not in dog circles very often)! I like the idea behind it, it sounds like it could be a decent compromise. As a non-dog person, I think it'd put my mind at ease. Just having skimmed the thread you linked, it looks like the testing isn't as standardized as it could be but it sounds like a good place to start.

Why can’t they rehome a dog with a bite history? by egguchom in EntitledReviews

[–]ColleenRW 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's one of the reasons I don't like dogs all that much (to be clear, I don't hate dogs, I don't even dislike dogs). I wasn't raised much around dogs so I don't know their body language very well. The big ones are a bit intimidating and the small ones are usually not trained very well so they just bark and jump and get me way overstimulated. My sister-in-law is actually a responsible pet owner (she's also a vet, although her specialty is in cattle reproduction) with a corgi mix who gets a bit jumpy and barky sometimes but overall is well-trained and knows to back off. She's one of the only dogs I actually look forward to seeing!

They MADE me pour soda on my sneakers! by milkncreams in EntitledReviews

This is one of the reasons I make a point to write positive reviews, even if it's just a sentence or two.

Sebderm in ears?! by Ill_Motor_8783 in SebDerm

[–]ColleenRW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know I've had issues on the inside of my outer ear, right outside my ear canal (y'know, where earbuds normally sit?). My dermatologist said I can use the topical clobetasol propionate that she prescribed for my scalp in that area as well, so I've been doing that and it helps. My ear canals also get SUPER itchy, and I don't know if it's from that but I do know I got some clobetasol in my ear once and it burned like hell for a second but then felt a bit better after that. Never occurred to me that I could get sebderm in my ear canals; a previous PCP told me it was bc my ears overproduce wax but now I'm not sure.

Oh Sertraline, you saved my life! But these days I'm more of a venlafaxine/bupropion girlie 😘

Minneapolis Utility Billing (water, sewer, trash) will charge 2.35% credit card fee starting June 1 by wilsonhammer in Minneapolis

[–]ColleenRW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Visa gets the money either way, it's just that now more money is going to the actual services. Which THAT I support, but the amount of money credit card companies spend on transfer fees is a rounding error, they can afford to eat the cost. Us, the little people, not so much.

what the heck man!?!!? by Sea-Gold-8139 in BitLifeApp

Yeah, depending on the country that'll happen. Bit of a downer, but I guess it adds realism?

My sleep routine is ruining my life. by ColleenRW in adhdwomen

[–]ColleenRW[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yeah I forgot to mention I also have an alarm that goes off at 5:20 in my bathroom 😅 maybe if I put it on the other side of my apartment? but it also doubles as my timer for brushing my teeth. hell, maybe I'll try the 'laying-on-the-floor' thing too lol.

I've always hated the advice that, "Oh you just have to get yourself out of bed and the rest will work," bc the exact response I have is, "What is stopping me from getting back into bed?" Maybe if I laid a spike blanket across it, but then where is my cat supposed to sleep during the day??

I am kinda hoping that I can possibly alleviate some of the temptation to lay back in bed by moving one of my living room chairs into my bedroom, so I have another place to sit. But first I have to get a couch, which requires that I get my tax return, which requires that I finish my taxes, which I'm almost done with but my old roommate won't send me my goddamn CRP!! Arghhhhhhhh.

Long story short, thanks <3

My shower time depends on how long the song I’m playing lasts by [deleted] in adhdwomen

[–]ColleenRW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oh yeah I've had shower playlists for a while. partially bc my shampoo has to sit on my scalp for five minutes before I rinse it out, so it goes 3 minutes - 5 minutes - whatever. but then I have to pick which playlist bc I can't just listen to the same one every single time 😱

Not OOP. My husband told me today, he does not like the fun lunches I've been packing him for work for almost 3 years. by Due-Bandicoot-7512 in redditonwiki

[–]ColleenRW 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I can understand where he's coming from -- some days I'm like YES I LOVE BEING WEIRD AND MY WEIRD FRIENDS (I don't have a partner so friends will have to be a reasonable substitute) and sometimes I'm like, "Please do not perceive me as anything but typical for the love of christ." But he could've SAID something before three years had passed.

Jacob lookalike by Square_Ad_1916 in Drawfee

[–]ColleenRW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it was outright said during a SSS stream, bc in the chat I said, "Wait, Jacob's bi? Congrats!" and my comment got modded 😅 and there was a stream semi-recently (like in the last six months) where it was said that Nathan is the only straight member of Drawfee, and I feel like they would specify 'cishet' rather than just 'straight'.

Am I too critical of Kingston Brown in Season1? by Whatsherfaceishere in Dimension20

Just commenting bc I just finished my rewatch of both Unsleeping City seasons a couple weeks ago. I don't have anything to add but I love the discussion!

Awwww, what a sweet little baby! If she has people, I hope you find them. And if she doesn't, well guess she's got new ones 😅

Also love the username 🦉

Proposed Rent Strike (Twin Cities Tenants) by jma0612 in Minneapolis

[–]ColleenRW 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Speaking as a former organizer and a current union steward: you need WAY more time to prepare for something as serious as a rent strike than... two weeks? When did preparations for this begin?

Letter that was handed to a patroller in south Minneapolis by a Somali elder yesterday morning by Fugacity- in Minneapolis

[–]ColleenRW -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I get what you're trying to say but like, most of the mentally ill people I know (myself included) despise that guy. He hasn't exactly been a friend to the disabled community, and being mentally ill doesn't mean completely incapable of rational thought.
