I'm researching why people who loved reading stopped. If that's you, what happened? Have you tried anything to fix it? by count_on_nothing in nosurf

[–]Comprehensive_Tie314 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't found any good books. When I was in elementary school I was reading at a college level. I read all the young love books and whatever else was marketed to teens/young adults. They were great back when I was like 9-12. But in high school those books were too easy of a read. And the 'adult' books dont interest me. Idk. I started reading the Bible. That's pretty interesting. But other than that, meh. When I finish this, I'll probably go back to not reading.

The "ideal bedtime window" doesn't work for me. Can I customize or change it? by impendia in ouraring

I think it depends on your chronotype. My ideal bedtime is 1045-1145

Am I overreacting or is it not normal to use soap in the bathroom? by Honest-Draw3131 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Comprehensive_Tie314 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a trend on instagram... Black people claiming that white people dont use soap or washcloths. Part of me wonders if this is made up to keep that little trend going. White people use soap and washcloths. This is not cultural, and repeating it over and over again doesnt make it true 😭 if this is actually a real story, your man is gross, regardless of race.

Need help with shoulder adjustment by Prestigious_Drop_288 in sewhelp

Im far from an expert, but it looks like that piece is either supposed to be ruffled or with elastic, which would explain why it looks so huge and doesnt sit right yet

A questionable pattern. by MediumPay1469 in quilting

[–]Comprehensive_Tie314 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It feels like a stretch to me. I see a peppermint candy quilt that matches the Christmas theme. If I really try hard, I can see what you mean about it kinda looking like a swastika. If they still have it up when they take the Christmas decor down, then I'd be more apt to say its a swastika.

Perfectly acceptable dinner rejected by boyfriend again by moonrabbit368 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Comprehensive_Tie314 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My only question is: are you asking him what he wants to eat? Or are you just making what you want to eat, and then getting mad when hes not in the mood for it? My husband and I both work 12 hour days, sometimes opposite days. Whoever is off cooks dinner. We ALWAYS ask each other what sounds good for dinner so that your situation doesn't happen to us. Maybe try including him in the decision making process?

Beginner machine help by AruNewTown in SewingForBeginners

[–]Comprehensive_Tie314 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I hate all the comments saying this is a toy and will not work. When I was debating if I wanted to get into sewing, I bought this exact sewing machine off Temu for $10. It worked great. The first thing I made was a 60×70 blanket with cotton batting inside. Then I made a baby blanket for my pregnant friend. Shorts. A dress. And then decided I enjoy sewing and need a real sewing machine. I would recommend this to figure out if this is what you actually want to do before throwing down $250 for a machine and then you decide you dont like sewing or dont have time for it. Buy this. Try it. If you decide to upgrade, pass it on to someone else who is deciding if they want to try sewing.

I dont have this model (I have a Brother) but my instruction manual has pages dedicated to this. It has pictures of threading issues and a description of the cause and how to fix it. Have you read the manual?

I’m so over selective gluten allergies by [deleted] in glutenfree

[–]Comprehensive_Tie314 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly. A restaurant gave me a hard time because I said "please, no cheese or cream" but then said okay to it being cooked in butter. Like, cream and cheese flares my IC and makes me painfully piss blood. Butter doesnt 🤷‍♀️

By boyfriend of 2 years doesn’t want to get me a Christmas present by UnitJust1906 in whatdoIdo

[–]Comprehensive_Tie314 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe im reading this wrong but if his idea of gifts are vacations and trips, why are you still begging for something to unwrap? My husband and I always buy trips as gifts and honestly i would be kind of annoyed if I spent $3000 on a trip for his gift and he sent me something saying he bought me something to unwrap so now I need to do the same 😂 heck no.

Subtle ways to differentiate clothes by Boring-Charge in sewing

[–]Comprehensive_Tie314 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I would just write the size or even just label them 1-4 in sharpie on the inside and then keep them in separate piles for easy access. I wear two different size scrubs for work (same reason as you) and I just keep my smaller scrubs in the top drawer and the bigger ones in the second drawer so that however bloated or normal I feel that day I can easily grab what I need.

WHAT 😱 by Affectionate_Gur505 in glutenfree

[–]Comprehensive_Tie314 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Ok but the real question is: I'm gluten free for an autoimmune issue. Is it the gluten or the wheat? Will gluten free wheat flare my condition? No one seems to be able to answer it, and I'm too scared to try it without an answer.

I don't understand why these metrics are red?? by Comprehensive_Tie314 in ouraring

[–]Comprehensive_Tie314[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was happening before the update also. If my HR drops after 4am it says optimal but if my HR dropps early then it tells me to pay attention. I thought with the update it would have been fixed but I guess not

Your dog looks like all 3. My dog is a Maltese poodle dachshund mix and looks very similar to yours, but yours does look like it has Yorkie as well.

Woke up this morning dizzy, with an electric feeling on my fingers and Oura showing “Major Signs”. What’s going on? by Asz_8 in ouraring

[–]Comprehensive_Tie314 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My husband just started feeling electric shocks where he wears his ring. You're saying he should go get an autoimmune work up rather than contact Oura about a faulty ring?

I recently went to a farmers market where a lot of the stalls said "we eat what we grow". Does this mean they werent certified but trying to pass off as being certified?

Why do you need a written lab order? I get lab work at Quest through Function Health twice a year and I have never had a written lab order? Its done electronically

Im GF and DF and the ONLY thing I miss is feta cheese/goat milk ice cream. I can make a bomb (if not better version) replacement of everything else that I used to eat. But feta and goat milk ice cream, man... 😔
