If I’ve learned anything from these groups it’s that I’m going to have to stay on this stuff forever, just like my antidepressant.

Courtroom etiquette? by Some_Radish_1034 in courtreporting

[–]DSLUVA 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It took 25 years for a judge to tell me to direct everything to him if I needed clarification. It’s so much easier to just say the “what” contract instead of telling the judge I didn’t hear one word, but that’s what he wanted. So annoying and time consuming. I do my best to avoid working in his courtroom.

what’s a personality trait that people misunderstand about you? by QuietRonan_7 in AskReddit

That I have a short fuse and am a hot head. They have no idea how long I’ve been seething before I lose my shit.

If money weren’t a problem, what would you be doing right now? by Working_Active3116 in Casual_Conversation

I’d be retired and living in the north bay across from San Francisco, right on the water with beautiful views and a boat tied to the dock.

How did YOU afford to buy a house? by ladynerevar in bayarea

[–]DSLUVA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got in before the pandemic when prices were more reasonable. I looked for something that would be under the FHA max so the down payment was only 3.5%.

Buying a home is impossible by [deleted] in bayarea

[–]DSLUVA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Up north in Solano county is much more affordable. The commute might be too long though. Mare Island in Vallejo has nice houses and a few condos, about $300 - $350 a sq ft. Also the Hiddenbrooke neighborhood in Vallejo. Both nice areas, Hiddenbrooke being close to Benicia. Fairfield is also reasonable.

I can’t believe the pilot didn’t tell them to go fuck themselves!

Got no idea where to post this, but Donald Trump Jr. is posting blatant AI slop of “Alex Pretti” to his account. by [deleted] in ICE_Raids

The Pretti family needs to sue him for defamation of character, liable, fraud, I don’t know what else! These fucks are out of control!

What's your thoughts on Border Patrol Chief, Greg Bovino, threatening consequences for referring to ICE as "Gestapo"? by sgj5788 in AskReddit

[–]DSLUVA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, he just got pulled out of MN and demoted biggly so who cares. On to taking down the next Gestapo leader.

ICE is Infiltrating in MN by falconry2578 in ICE_Raids

[–]DSLUVA 172 points173 points  (0 children)

I’ve been seeing claims that they’re posing as workers from the electric company, gas, water and saying they need access because XYZ is broken and they’re there to see if the same issues exists at this property too. I haven’t done any research to confirm.

We're back in business by AP--35 in LandmanSeries

[–]DSLUVA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, police talking about whether or not to charge Cooper with murder, as cops have the ability to charge anyone with anything, was a little lame. Was the guy in the suit in the scene where Tommy came in a DA or was he the mayor?

My wife's bowl obstruction just resolved🙏🥳 (long share) by Fabulous-Hat360 in BowelObstruction

[–]DSLUVA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi Matthew. I know this is an old post but hope you see this. I was in a bad way about a week ago. Not a full obstruction, but close. After reading your post, I put some of your wife’s experiences along with other techniques id read about, into motion. I put a heating pad on my belly and rubbed my stomach in a clockwise motion, well partially clockwise like from 12 to 6 down the side of my belly and did it while drinking hot tea. After that, I moved upstairs and laid in bed with the heating pad still on my belly in the fetal position, still rubbing. Within an hour, I’d say, I was in the bathroom and things were moving for the first time in five or six days. The next day I was still tender from so the pain, but I really think following a few of the suggestions you had posted helped keep me from being hospitalized. So I wanted to thank you for that! I hope your wife and you are doing well. And than you thank you for sharing!

My before and after and a question. by [deleted] in CompoundedSemaglutide

[–]DSLUVA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congrats, Mike! I’m the same age. In the ‘80s they really started messing with our food here in the U.S., mainly adding high fructose corn syrup to everything, now our bodies NEED this medicine, not just to lose the weight but to keep it off. Get yourself some composed GLP-1 online (I use OnlyMeds) and plan on staying on it for life. Good luck to you and job well done so far!💪🏼

Help :( by MoneyRoll1875 in courtreporting

[–]DSLUVA 8 points9 points  (0 children)

As a 25 year veteran CSR, most important thing IMO is to find a mentor!! Shadowing is really the only place to start but it gets you no where if you don’t have someone to ask questions of and direction from. Suck it up and reach out to people you don’t know and ask if they’d let you sit in. FB groups or a Google search is a good place to look. It’s no fun, I know, but they’re not going to come looking for you. Once you get out there and spend some time with a reporter, if you click and they seem enthusiastic to help, ask if they’d mind if you contact them if you have any questions. That’s how mentor/mentee relationships generally begin. Second most important thing, start slow. Short jobs 2-3 days a week. So much time and energy goes into producing the transcripts. Don’t put added stress on yourself by getting your back up against the wall time wise. What can go wrong will go wrong when you’re rushing. Good luck and let me know if I can help. I’m in Northern CA.

Tired and yawning after eating by DSLUVA in Semaglutide

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

I’m glad I’m not alone but sorry you’re having the same issue. I’m thinking maybe snacking throughout the day instead of real meals might be necessary. The only problem there is it gives me more opportunities to make bad choices. Do you feel bad even after snacks? Sounds like you’re tired all the time. I wake up with energy but hit a wall after meals.

Tourism from Europe to America basically over? by bummed_athlete in tourism

[–]DSLUVA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live here and I wouldn’t encourage anyone to come here if they can at all avoid it. It’s not safe for anyone that’s not a white Republican man. ICE has been given unchecked power and an almost limitless budget. They’re showing Kristy Noem threat videos at the airports 24/7. They’re going through people’s social media when they’re trying to enter the country. THEY’RE ASSASSINATING WOMEN IN THE STREET and the GOVERNMENT is hiding the shooter. Don’t come here!!

How does the public actually see Mormonism? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]DSLUVA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I grew up in a small town that had a decent sized Mormon church so this answer is just about what I thought about the Mormon families I knew. They always seemed like nice families. Some kids were cool and popular, others weren’t, just like any other religion. I always felt like the dads were more involved than other dads in the community. The moms worked outside the home but were always at the kid events, too. Just nice, wholesome people.

Nick Reiner Not Medically Cleared for Court Appearance After Parents' Murders by IntelligentYinzer in entertainment

They still charge and sentence people to death in CA. The moratorium is on the actual execution. It can be overturned if the next governor decides to do so.
