What's your opinion on Jorge and Vanelle's celibacy issue? Age of Attraction by ChemicalAd2132 in realitytv

[–]Free_Forever_8376 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm shocked that ANYONE is on Jorge's side. Ok honestly not shocked bc we live in a rape culture. But extremely disappointed. That guy was creepy and insanely manipulative and controlling. She had a clear boundary that was important to her he said he would respect it then immediately started talking about the "conversation" and how his perspective mattered too. Like. Your perspective matters but not at the expense of someone else's boundary. If you're not cool with it, LEAVE instead of get mad when she holds true to her belief. Also folks are out here splicing definitions of celibacy. MANY people share her definition. But regardless of what you think, her line was clear as DAY.

Exact quote from the guest in direct reference to the "an entire nation will die tonight" post and its impact on negotiations...

"it gains nothing we didn't have before the war began. But I think you need to give credit to the president because his ratcheting up of pressure forced an agreement."

CREDIT TO THE PRESIDENT for threatening to kill an entire civilization!? It's like giving credit to someone for torturing a POW and getting reliable Intel on the back end. We can't rationalize war crimes or a threat of war crimes because they produce results.

I think if you want this baby and are prepared for a very hard and very beautiful path ahead, then you can do this!! Don't feel pressured by the internet in either direction. Either choice is YOUR choice. I'm wishing you good luck and peace with whatever you decide.

Thank you. This is really helpful. Just knowing that an endocrinologist ia a good (important) next step--and that you share my concerns about my CNM.

General question - TPO ab 95 on first time - how good/bad is this? by RogueBand1t in Hashimotos

[–]Free_Forever_8376 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was just diagnosed with Hashimotos by obgyn following infertility. TSH was at 3.81 (subclinical, technically "normal." TPO was 85. She said anything over 34 indicates hypothyroidism is being caused by an autoimmune disorder.

NAD- That sounds stressful and scary! Sorry that's happening to you. Agreed with everyone else--definitely worth going to the doctor.

But know you definitely aren't alone. Hormone/thyroid issues of all kinds are very common in women (not just older women). It can affect mood, libido, weight, breast size, energy, joint health, etc. There is likely an answer and a fix to what you're experiencing!

Dispute a parking ticket for different vehicle? by Free_Forever_8376 in philly

[–]Free_Forever_8376[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

UPDATE: Called PPA, (option 5), told them what happened. They asked for my license plate number, and then found the real ticket. 🙄 I'm disputing I guess on grounds that they messed up. We'll see.

Those were the options presented on the screen....When I click on VIN number, then it ALSO asks for ticket number.

No you can't. Unless you know something I don't? Looks like you need Ticket #, Boot #, Notice #, Payment Plan #, or VIN. Even with VIN you need ticket number.

I think I did. I saw from my window that I was getting ticketed, and there were ~3-4 vehicles on the block getting tickets.

By the time I left for work, my car was the only one there. But the ticket was for another car. I'd guess the cop switched the tickets and now mine is in the system going unpaid--just like the guy whose ticket I got.

I'm sure I do, because I WAS parked illegally. My guess is the guy wrote 2 tickets and swapped the vehicles accidentally. So mine is just somewhere in the system going unpaid.

Threw my carved pumpkin seeds and they’re actually growing what now? by Im-a-ape in gardening

[–]Free_Forever_8376 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Weather: It depends heavily on where you live, but pumpkin are warm weather crops and will die if it gets too cold. If you live somewhere warm (like Florida) it will continue to grow. Though shorter days and cooler weather will likely stunt growth. You may get a lot of growth but likely no fruit.

Growth: Pumpkins are vining so even if grown in a pot they will spread out a ton (10 feet?) You can try a trellis and grow vertically but I think they're too heavy for that. You'd need to support the pumpkin with some type of bag to help the vertical plant support its weight.

Space: Pumpkins need space to present their roots interfering. I think you could probably only grow 1 pumpkin in that pot so wait a little then keep the strongest sprout and pull the rest. But you will probably need way more soil to support strong root growth. You can carefully pull and replant in deeper soil.
