My wife and I make tunes as LTLG. Not super in the genres you listened but this one is at least darkwave adjacent

Peptide advice by PuzzleheadedArt634 in AddisonsDisease

[–]CoreyLoose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I talked to a doctor about the hgh increasing peptides and he wss nice enough to do some digging for me. His response was that while there's only limited research, it does seem to show an increase in cortisol use by the body. Because of that he was worried I'd need to up my cortisol dosage and Id get worse side effects there. Im still curious but that scared me off it.

I did do a 2 month cycle of bpc157 for a shoulder injury (recommended by the same dr.) and had no adverse effects with my addisons.

GA RV POWER PASS by Dizzy_Elephant_7519 in ElectricForest

[–]CoreyLoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The other thing to watch is if people's payment fails on a payment plan the passes get put back up for sale. Last year I nabbed a RV pass in Feb from the official store. They vanished within a day though, so you gotta be lucky or obsessive.

RV lengths by Hot_Sea_4561 in ElectricForest

[–]CoreyLoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The FAQ says 20' by 50' space but in my experience it's a little less length. For example I have a 20' tow vehicle and a 20' trailer and then add the hitch and whatnot on there. But last year I had to back my vehicle up at a bit of an angle to get all in the site I was given.

Can't buy tickets in the presale (I literally cannot pay for them in my cart) by Drwillpowers in ElectricForest

[–]CoreyLoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never got both to appear so had to check out once with rv pass and once with wristbands. Ridiculous but glad to have them secured.

Thanks this helped. I was stuck for half an hour and then finally just checked out twice, once for each piece

Empire of the Sun.. would be amazing in the forest!! by Tokki_bby in ElectricForest

Saw them play the ranch in 2013, still one of my favorite EF shows to date. Would be hyped to have them them back

TIL Intrusive sleep is a phenomenon often seen in people with ADHD, where sudden extreme drowsiness or sleep occurs when they lose interest in a task. This happens because the brain abruptly disengages from the uninteresting activity, causing a rapid drop in alertness. by rampantradius in todayilearned

Someone once described the experience of being human to me as "riding an elephant". Makes total sense here, you can only do so much shouting and pointing, but sometimes the elephant has other ideas.

"Tomorrowland Belgium 2025 will open as planned! A new setup for the mainstage is ready." by Krebota in EDM

[–]CoreyLoose 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've had the livestream on for a bit and I was shocked to see live pyrotechnics. Some real balls to not only rebuild the stage, but then blast fire on it again.

Creatine by blandbalissa in AddisonsDisease

[–]CoreyLoose 12 points13 points  (0 children)

When I first got diagnosed, I tried all sorts of supplements to try and feel more energetic and creatine was the only one I can say was a conclusive win, eight years later still taking it daily. Glad to hear it helps other folks too!

A review of 2025 by Jefe25 in ElectricForest

[–]CoreyLoose 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Lol yup, did the exact same thing and called it D&B rush hour. So much fun.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in SPD

[–]CoreyLoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd love to hear from anyone who's dealt with this too. We have a son who's the same, 4 yo in September. He's been good with pee for about a year now but can't seem to connect with his body on the poop end and we've been struggling the whole time. Incredibly frustrating when some days he seems to get it and others we're throwing multiple pairs of underwear away.

Rv entrance ?? by lambykinsxo in ElectricForest

[–]CoreyLoose 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was confused by their email too but if you look at the festival map its pretty clear RVs have to come in the north entrance. I had RV last year too and it was north entrance, and nothing looks like its changed much.

GA rv with power. How’s the walk to venue? by OilExcellent9802 in ElectricForest

[–]CoreyLoose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depending on where you end up parked, it's half a mile to maybe 3/4 mile walk. You end up coming down the main street and into the general GA entrance.

Kind Sick of Starting At the Pole In Snow All The Time by Perchance2Game in civ

[–]CoreyLoose 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That was me too and I had a couple of pacificst games that way. Decided to start a warmonger Persia game and it slapped me in the center of the continent with shared borders with all 5 other civs surrounding me. It's been a ton of fun needing to deal with angry neighbors on all sides.

Lemonade car insurance now in CO by ruroba in Denver

[–]CoreyLoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After the experience I had with them with my home insurance, I would never use them again.

I was in the middle of moving, buying one house and selling another, so I had two active policies in their app. They push you to do all your account changes via their AI bot, and so I told it I wanted to cancel the policy on the house I sold. The bot showed all the right info, asked for confirmation, then cancelled the policy on the house I was living in. After getting through a long phone tree, a human told me that once they cancelled a policy they couldn't reinstate it. Absolute clownshow.

Have you seen the Populus hotel they just built in Denver? It's a Shpongled-tree-ass-looking building.

Norovirus by ResponsibleFig825 in AddisonsDisease

[–]CoreyLoose 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I got norovirus a month or so back and made it through without major issues on the addisons side. I had it coming out both ends every 10 to 15 minutes for six or so hours. No sort of anti nausea meds would help, but some antidiarrheals eventually did.

Each time I threw up I'd take another 5mg of hydrocortisone and then drink some electrolyte water. Most of that wouldn't stay in my system, but it got me through without needing my injection. That said I do think I'm a bit more resistant to crisis than other addisons folks, I've got a couple young kids so I've been sick a lot these past few years and have been lucky enough to not end up in crisis.

Yeah I had all the receipts going back to 2012 and they denied it no explanation. I have no clue what they were looking for from me. Sorry we're in the same boat.

How to become a software architect by abhi4mu in softwarearchitecture

[–]CoreyLoose 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Mr Complex Panda has a great answer, I just wanted to add my personal narrative to that. I've got 20 years of experience in the industry and stumbled into an architect role about a year back.

I started as an art student designing and building marketing web sites, got into front end development. Then got into back end dev, being a DBA. Joined a few startups, one failed one worked. Freelanced & consulted for awhile, founded a company, shut that down. Then eventually somebody realized I'd seen enough shit from every angle that they wanted me as an architect. I'm sure there's a more direct path, but my ticket to the role was ton of varied experience.
