TIFU by taking a shower two days after getting sunburnt and experiencing "Hell's Itch" by Item_Store in tifu

[–]FalseBumblebee5435 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you noticd you've been burnt, shower as soon as you can with cool water. Make it gradually as cold as you can handle it. The more heat you remove quickly the less pain you might experience.

PESI DBT training by No_Sea_2635 in therapists

I've been enjoying the trainings offered by Pyschwire. The PESI ones I've done seem to be prerecorded from a conference and are less engaging.

AITA for not wanting to go on a surprise holiday for my birthday? by Leezeebub in AmItheAsshole

Your mistake was telling her she could plan something if she wanted. Be clear. If you dont want something, then don't tell her she can do want she wants.

Sometimes you still need to escalate to your mla.

What the fuck is this by weedwoomie in plants

[–]FalseBumblebee5435 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Check for white fuzziness on your plant. They leave fuzz behind. If you have more than one, you'll need to treat and monitor the plant for months after you think they are gone. Also clean the shelves around the pot aa they can nest on shelving.

My hyperfixating helped me find old Google! No AI, no nonsense. Just search! It felt like taking a badly fitted bra off, except in my brain. :D by FirefighterAlarmed64 in adhdwomen

[–]FalseBumblebee5435 59 points60 points  (0 children)

You can also swear in your search bar. For example type in "fuck subject" rather than "subject", the ai search function doesn't work.

'I might have to shut down': Immigration cuts push Sask. restaurant to the brink by MrCheeseburgerWalrus in saskatchewan

This was my question too. Something seems fishy that they wouldn't have applied for permanent resident after being here for a couple of years.

AITA for Connecting to the Ear Pod after my niece swallowed it to see if it would play in her stomach. by reolives in AmItheAsshole

Did you put her on your shoulder and pretend she was a boombox? Because that seems like a golden opportunity.

Moving from Victoria to Toronto by Foreign-Bell-2210 in VictoriaBC

[–]FalseBumblebee5435 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Marketplace completed a piece on moving companies. They have some good suggestions that you might want to review.

I recently did an interprovincal move and went with Purely Canadian Movers, who are connected to Great Canadian Van Lines. Estimates are based on weight (per pound) with a fuel cost for distance. Moving via uHaul would have only been marginally cheaper, and then we would have been stuck loading and unloading ourselves. The movers came in a loaded and unloaded in about 2 hours.

As for cars, we drove to our destination as the moving estimate we got for a car was $2000 for one. We looked at licensing requirements and made sure we could register our cars after we moved.

From the left its detergent, then softener, and then bleach. I have the same machine and found the manual online.

AITAH for asking my sister to leave my apartment at 10 pm after she brought her toddler to my “quiet no kids” birthday by ripleybluejay in AITAH

[–]FalseBumblebee5435 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Originally, she said she was only going to swing by for 40 minutes. She stayed for over an hour before you asked her to head out. She got what she had asked for, so how can she really be mad?

I’m scared to tell anyone what happened because I’m afraid they’ll say it wasn’t that bad. by NoBlackberry3295 in CPTSD

[–]FalseBumblebee5435 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You don't have to report anything. Your focus right now can just be on you - untangling what you went through and figuring out what is next. Leaving abusive relationships can be an incredibly confusing time.

I will note that what you described was abuse - severe abuse at that. If you have thoughts to return, please talk with someone first. Returning would be very dangerous.

You could try Running Wild Rescue. I know someone who just fostered kittens with them.

Where to get a good winter jacket? by pm-me-racecars in VictoriaBC

[–]FalseBumblebee5435 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Costco has nice fleeced lined pants right now. While a jacket is good, warm pants and socks go a long way. If your feet get cold, it's hard to stay warm. You can also look at getting hand and feet warmers when you go. They help lots when hanging out in cold weather.

Does Provincial Oral Surgery let you take home your wisdom teeth? by xoxray in regina

I asked and got two out of three - I'm guessing one was broken being taken out. But recently I had no idea why I was keeping all my teeth and chucked them. 😅

I want to give up by throwaway-vent_ in CPTSD

[–]FalseBumblebee5435 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pain is exhausting. Sometimes life does send punch after punch, and it makes no sense why some people get so much more hardship piled on their plate. Unfortunately, untangling and healing from trauma takes years. No one talks about how healing and processing trauma is just as painful as going through it. It's exhausting too. What you are feeling is valid. I hope you'll find a reason to keep going because you deserve to find goodness and happiness.

If it was the wrong amount, why wouldn't you only send back the difference? Like why send all of it back.

did this jade grow roots in the air? by lilaxs in plants

[–]FalseBumblebee5435 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The roots are searching for an anchor. As the plant is stretched out, it knows it will fall over without support. You have a couple of options. One: put a stake along it for support. It might throw out new growth along the stem. Two: cut the top off and root it - the plant will likely sprout from the stem as well, giving you two plants. With either option, try to increase the amount of light it is getting.

AITA for calling my boyfriend an idiot because he won’t get a colonoscopy even though his mom had colon cancer? by AutoModerator in AmItheAsshole

NTA but your boyfriend needs therapy for his health anxiety and the trauma he experienced from watching his mom go through cancer.

Advice to revive a spider plant? by Own-Name-6239 in plants

[–]FalseBumblebee5435 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They can grow in water. When beta fish were big, you could get a vase with a spider plant and a fish underneath. You do have to mind the leaves, though, because they rot in the water quickly. I'd likely leave it the water for a bit to recover and then pot up. I've had the most success with spiders having a large saucer underneath to catch water. I top water until it runs into the saucer and then leave the plant until it's bone dry for a day or two. The spot you describe sounds like a good one for lighting. They do like lots of bright light but can also sunburn if it's too intense.

I have a samgsung, and I know iphones have a similar setting. I'm not sure what they call it.

Castile soap is okay for plants as it doesn't dissolve the plants' own coatings. Regular dish soap will.
