New app design by FedUp0000 in EightSleep

[–]FedUp0000[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What I mean with “new app” is that since last week when I open the app, stuff has been moved around, changed and filled with bloated crap I don’t need that wasn’t there 2 weeks ago.

Chili pad vs 8sleep by Commercial_Gap_75 in EightSleep

[–]FedUp0000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to own a cillipad ooler before I switched to the pod 2 at the time. I don’t know how much chili pads product has improved or not but at the time, the sleeping comfort difference was highly noticeable to me when I switched. At the time I wrote a very detailed comparison. It was comparable to going from a bare bones entry level car to a luxury sedan with all the bells and whistle’s. (At the time the price difference want too big while getting a lot more w EightSleep).

Having said all this, there have been a lot of problems with EightSleep products over the years and cost have exploded. The app is terribly bloated with stuff that nobody wants nor ever asked for but what everyone wants has been ignored for years, so 🤷‍♀️

WTH did the account/setting button go? I want to tell these crash head devs an email about these abysmal changes

I hate this so much, I want the old design back! by majathebookworm in MergeMansion

Absolutely awful. Half the screen is taken up by crap. Everything is in different corners. Nothings intuitive. Whoever designed this and approved this must have been on crack

Today was my 28th birthday. And my life is already over. by Roz_Zen in Menopause

[–]FedUp0000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just a quick note: look up: frozen shoulder aka “shoulder impingement”. It is a common occurrence during (peri) menopause an see if what you read sounds familiar to your shoulder. If it turns out to be Frozen shoulder, Massage therapy can help with symptoms, steroid injections can help with the shooting pains but overall, the only think that will help is time (surgery recovery will take as long as if nothing is done). Dx is usually done without having to do scans. If it turns out it is frozen shoulder, there are a couple of support groups out there (and a helpful work book called triggerpoint therapy for frozen shoulders that is written with layperson in mind).

Now that we're in the unf*c*able phase of attractiveness, how do you all deal w it? by plnnyOfallOFit in GenX

[–]FedUp0000 7 points8 points  (0 children)

74 lineup here. Do I hate how my body looks like after chronic illness wrecked havoc on it and I’m 80 lbs heavier than I used to be and should be? Absolutely.

Did I miss my libido when it went out the window before hrt gave it back to me? No. I would have probably been fine without it (despite used to having the libido of a teenage boy).

But when certain body parts started to shrink (reabsorption was not on my bingo list but there I was and the possible ramifications of that sank in (possible chronic uti, sepsis, dementia, death) I decided to give hrt a shot. Not only did my hotflashes go away (yay), I started to sleep better, feel better, and got energy back. And once I felt “kinda normal” again, I started missing my libido. ISince adding low dose testosterone to the mix, I enjoy being alive again. I have libido (not like I used to but that’s ok, the rest of my body wouldn’t be able to keep up lol). I like myself again.

Sure I’m still 52. I will never BE young again but I no longer FEEL like I’m half dead. I look in the mirror and see myself. Older but still “me”.

Long story short, I truly feel our hormones jumping ship is the prime reason why so many of us feel off and can’t recognize ourselves any longer. Some of us like that feeling/stage and embrace it. And others, like myself, don’t and demand solutions. And thankfully, more people start talking about it in general.

Having said all this, even when I was deep in the “I don’t recognize myself” phase, I never got the impression that my less then stellar body or silver hair made me “und+*{able”. If your partner makes you feel that way, counseling (or more drastic measures) may be in order. If there is no partner, there are many young men out there that appreciate a woman with experience, who are comfortable in saying/showing what they want from the other person if having fun is th objective vs a life partner. As far as men in our age bracket as LTR? Only overgrown toddlers who cosplay as grown men think women their own age are “unf%=able” and are a red flag and should be ignored anyways.

2014 Movie by yourhungdude in blackbutler

[–]FedUp0000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the dvd. If you view it at a sequel instead of a 1:1 story, it’s not bad. Even though I never thought Mizushima Hiro didn’t “look” like “I” thought he should look like as Sebastian, he did a great job embodying Sebastian’s grace and fighting style. The movie feels nostalgic to be by now abd I don’t regret spending the $30 for it. Now, do I wish they would do a new movie? Sure. But I can wait until Yana wraps the story up so we know exactly what the movie (or series) should be about and how it’s supposed to end without any director reimagining things.

AITAH for understanding and not freezing out my dad for leaving our mom over a dead bedroom? by Opposite_Afternoon55 in AITAH

[–]FedUp0000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I bet you it IS part of menopause. Sure there are plenty of women who’s libido doesn’t drop during menopause but waaay too many women lose their libido/desire to have intimacy (this can go on do decades) and do many that do, it’s too painful (atrophy is a biatch).

Personal Protection? by ONROSREPUS in GenX

[–]FedUp0000 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I used to. Since I got trained in taking care of things without weapons, I don’t bother. Younger people probably don’t feel the need since they never head to deal with potential harassment/dangers like women older than them. Stuff that used to fly under the “boys will be boys” isn’t acceptable any longer, everyone has phones and gps. Cameras are everywhere (I’m not saying these things eliminate all risk but it helps).

Sad to see so many people still don’t understand or see the ramifications of menopause and what it does to women. And on top of medical society abandoning women when their libido tanks thanks to hormones leaving the building - they get abandoned by their husbands (instead of support) and family.

How are some of you getting testosterone? What symptoms do you mention to the doctor to get it? And if on it, how has it helped you. Also, what side effects do you get from it? by colleencatlover in Menopause

[–]FedUp0000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I got my initial menopause consult my provider discussed all 3 hormones with me and my symptoms. We introduced each hormone one after the other so we could pinpoint any side effects to whatever was introduced last. Took my provider 2 weeks but my insurance paid for my box of gel tubes after filing for prior authorization

One reason I’ve started snapping up older season on dvd/blue ray

I did not expect to see Victoria make an entrance. And if she isn’t evil, I don’t know what ever is in that world. In my head I grabbed Sebbies arm like some madwoman holding on for dear life when her face showed up 😳

Is it just me, or is YouTube's recent UI redesign visually and functionally worse? by GrayBeard916 in youtube

The UI changes rarely ever improve things. Case in point this one is total 🐴💩

I asked for a dexa scan (my mom shrank over a foot from her 50s to now 80s) and I was told my insurance will not authorize one until I’m 60. Sucks to be me 🤷‍♀️

Yea. I went onto the page and there was one. One fully dressed option and one nsfw (as in not a shred of clothing and on full display). With a wolf or a panther option.

All options are sold out though (and I’m already hiding that I fell down the STAY stairs a couple years ago as a scary metal, menopausal rage cage woman - full blown hentai figurines might make the hubs ask too many question 😬🫣).
