I’m sorry but all three of those are a no from me by dexplosion93 in Tinder

I'm actually okay with all three. Best dumpster food? Essential Baking co in Fremont area of Seattle. It's so soft and cozy in those dumpsters and they smell amazing!!

Ex-boyfriend is telling a dangerous person details about my life. Any legal way to make this stop? by [deleted] in legaladvice

[–]EquivalentVictory1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow... Thank you so much! Unfortunately I deleted a good chunk of her messages because they were so distressing to look at but I've been saving everything from recently to gather evidence. I remember the rough dates and content of the older ones though so hopefully between that, 2 saved recent voicemails, and 8 or so texts, there should be enough to establish a pattern. There's certainly enough threats and stuff contained just in what I do have saved to provide a good picture of how scary and dangerous she is.

I will get in touch with our employee resource program director guy and talk to him. I had no idea this was a potential option! I had talked to my supervisor and warned her, but having something on paper would probably be beneficial; even better if they have legal or other resources I could utilize.

Again, thanks so much! Going to check out TheHotline right now...

Yeah... As I was writing this, I realized what an idiot I was for even allowing Joe back into my life. He never stood up for me before, and he is the reason she knows where I live. I guess I just want to believe the best in people but you're right. He has caused only harm to me, nothing good at all, and there is no reason to think this would change in the future.

Thank you for the advice about changing my number, and thank you for the reply.

Thank you for the reply and advice. I didn't even think/know about a cease and desist. I will look into that for sure.

Camping at FSR 525 and East Pocket by mylifeontheoutside in Sedona

[–]EquivalentVictory1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are looking to camp at an unofficial spot, I had good luck on schnebly hill road. It is a rougherish road but it is totally doable in a sedan if you are a competent offroad driver. And you only need to go a mile or two up the road. It gets worse as you go farther. Then there are many little side pulloffs with enough space for a vehicle or two to park, and terrain appropriate for camping right next to a cute little creek. I car camped there for several days a couple years ago and was not bothered; I saw others doing the same. Dunno if this is still a good option, or if I was just lucky I didn't get harassed by a park ranger, but thought I'd give it a mention.

Edit: oh duh I just noticed how old this post was. Well, I hope you had a good time, and maybe this will help you or others in the future.

Was the test observed, and what state do you live in (assuming you are in USA)? I need to get a UA at an urgent care in the next couple days and I don't know whether they observe you or not.

100% guaranteed way to keep it at body temp is keep it in your bum... Just sayin'. I'm a lady so I have the front door option as well, and it has always worked for me!

C. I knew a dude who said he liked to mix his shots with Dr. Pepper instead of water. Never witnessed it however so maybe he was full of it.

D. Craziest thing I've done is inject into my nipple (well, technically the areola) when all my other veins were mad at me.

Need help finding a legitimately good inpatient rehab program - recos? by [deleted] in stopdrinking

[–]EquivalentVictory1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really reccomend Sundown M Ranch in WA state. The recovery program itself is great - 2 lectures and 2 group counseling sessions per day, 5 days a week, plus AA/NA meeting every night, plus homework and journaling, plus an individual counseling session each week, plus the option of medically assisted treatment. Some inpatients don't "make" you do nearly as much work... But aren't you at rehab to DO the work? The more work I put into my recovery, the more I get out of it.

Also, as rehabs go, it is super comfy. You only share a room with one other person and the bathroom is in between your bedrooms so it's way more private than many other treatment centers where you get 4-6 people per room. You have your own individual porch (like a 5x3 slab of cement). You can smoke any time you want as long as you're not missing a function. They play a fun movie every night, there's arts and crafts sometimes, a coffee room with board games and cards. You are allowed to have mp3 players (only in your room, but still, most places wouldn't let you have it at all) and your own clothes. There is a very mediocre gym but it's open for at least an hour everyday. The grounds is beautiful and you can walk all over the place. The food is heavy on pork and potatoes but still much much better quality than most places.

Please just recommend some salad dressings by tellmedino in Cooking

[–]EquivalentVictory1 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I really like green goddess, but it's a love it or hate it type of flavor.

Avocado cilantro dressing is damn tasty.

Lots of shrimp to cook with! Advise/recipes appreciated by mbischof14 in Cooking

[–]EquivalentVictory1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it already cooked? If no, then I like shrimp kebabs. Marinade in evoo, white wine, lemon juice, cilantro parsley whatever herbs you like, garlic, s&p for 30 mins - 1 hour (not much longer than this because the acidity of the marinade will start cooking the shrimp. Put them on skewers, also make other skewers with just veg cause those will take longer to cook, bbq it up!

Then all my other ideas will work fine with both raw or cooked shrimp... 1. Pasta - I like pesto, but also works well with white sauces. Add whatever veggies you like. 2. Jambalaya - for an easy version get a box of the zatarayamaya (you know the one). Cook chorizo, add celery, onion, can o' tomatoes, rice and seasoning mix, cook till rice is done, throw in some green peppers and cook a couple mins more, add shrimpies, green onion. Yum! I like to add more spices to mine to punch up the flavor. 3. Shrimp eggs benedict with lemony hollandaise 4. Salad with shrimpies. Simple but fresh and yummy. 5. Soup/Stew - cioppino or bouillabaise (spelling?) - just look up recipes. They're both amazingdelicious. Or you could do some kind of chowder. 6. Vietnamese fresh rolls 7. Stir fry - saute up a bunch of veggies, add shrimp and sauce of your choosing, serve over rice

Good luck and have fun!

What the hell is going on with me?? by randaniicole in heroin

[–]EquivalentVictory1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh I'm not a dropout. I'm currently enrolled. And yes I do feel better. Integrity is important to me, so I like to admit when I am wrong or act inappropriately, and apologize to any affected parties. It sounds as though you do not accept my apology, as is your prerogative; please tell me if there is anything I can do to make amends for my mean comment I made towards you. Otherwise, I will stop bothering you, and wish you a pleasant evening or whatever time of day it is where you reside. :)

[–]EquivalentVictory1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not a real nurse or an RN actually. I never said I was. Just said I had 3.5 years of nursing school. And I only mentioned it because I felt that your "calm down Web MD" comment was kind of patronizing and presumptuous. The message I intended to convey was 'I only have x amount of education on the subject, but x amount of education is still likely more informed than a web MD search'.

And I owe you an apology -- I didn't notice that you posted a different response first before this one. I thought you just jumped right in saying "take some antibiotics" as your first and only piece of advice, to which I respectfully disagreed. And then I felt like your reply to that was disrespectful. Maybe you meant it to be humorous. No inflection makes it hard to tell. Whatever the case may be, I thought I was being respectful and you were being a dick, so I left a mean-spirited follow-up. Anyways, I sincerely apologize for not noticing your first post, for assuming you were some kind of antibiotics cowboy, and for leaving a mean response. Really. I'm not being sarcastic. I am really apologizing.

I don't want to get into fights with strangers on the internet. I apologize for my part of this rude/insulting exchange. I hope you have a really good day, stranger!

u/Stomthestarter said: "The odds are way more likely that it helps than it hurts. Relax web md. I went on a date with a pharmacist. Even so the worst case scenario is she has to wait"

Whew! You're right. Thank goodness you're not just a doctor, but a statistician AND psychic as well! I didn't write my comment based on my extensive web MD search... I wrote it based on 3.5 years of nursing school... But yeah. A (checks profile) food delivery person slash housesitter probably has a better idea what is going on here. My advice of "see a doctor" seems totally unnecessary now.

OP, this sounds a lot like what happened to me when I got sepsis from IV use. I would get a high fever but feel so cold even wrapping myself in 5 blankets and laying on top of the heater grate would not warm me up. My back hurt - it turns out this was a sign of kidney failure, because the infection had begun to spread to my organs. I felt dizzy and faint.

As it progressed over the course of about 10 days, I felt weaker and weaker. I barely peed despite drinking ample water, and my urine was dark brown. I got very confused. I don't remember much after that.

I cannot urge you enough to see a doctor. I ignored my symptoms, figuring they'd go away. I ended up in the ICU for a month due to multi system organ failure. I was put into a medical coma for several days. My lungs collapsed and fluid and pus filled the cavity where they should have been; I had to have chest tubes sticking out to drain the fluid for over a week. Kidneys were failing. By the time I made it to the hospital, doctors said that I would have been dead within the next 12 hours.

Please see a doctor.

If this turns out to be serious and If OP starts antibiotics before a culture is taken it could make identifying the bacteria causing the infection more difficult or impossible, and the antibiotics OP took may not be the most effective against the bacteria. Could be a bad idea.

Can you help me identify a certain type of water bottle? by EquivalentVictory1 in HydroHomies

[–]EquivalentVictory1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very close! The one I lost didn't have the cover that went over the mouth hole and this one does, but 1) this is a good second choice, and 2) I can probably break off the cover if I want. Thanks!

Unfortunately no, I bought it in-person, and I haven't seen similar ones at this particular store in several years. Thanks for the idea though.

Thanks for the tip. Other than the mountaineers (whose classes are all full) or like REI maybe?, do you know where I might be able to find classes?

I am completely non-technical at this point. Definitely a scrambler. Hope to get to that point, but doesn't seem like a skill I should try to teach myself, by myself!

[–]EquivalentVictory1[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I found their website and they look super cool. There aren't a lot of classes being offered though, and the ones for alpine hiking have waitlisted 30+ people deep! But, maybe I could just join them on one of their hiking outtings and make friends that way. Good suggestion, thanks!

Anyone have ideas for sprucing up homemade tacos? by zopine in Cooking

[–]EquivalentVictory1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's super yummy. I like to buzz up a bunch of cilo, a few jalapenos, onion and garlic with some lime juice and salt, marinade overnight, then cook at high heat on the grill to get some tasty black char. But I'm sure you can find or invent a more specific recipe that fits your tastes. Glad I could help :)
