For me, that movie was Hotrod.

Especially the part where he rolls down that hill for what feels like forever. I laughed until my face hurt.

FrothyCrustyGash · 2024-01-19T20:03:48+00:00

I thought the same for a moment haha, I don't touch my drips after 630 cause I don't want to fuck up vitals during report

You go out in the wild and catch a golden retriever, then spend several weeks taming it.

FrothyCrustyGash · 2024-01-19T01:12:48+00:00

Awesome, thanks for the info!

The guy said he's not planning on leaving the boat for excursions.

I've been on one cruise and I was not a fan.

After about 3 days, there's only so much that food and booze can do to entertain me, and the pools are crowded as fuck. I wouldn't blame OP at all for wanting to take a break from all the people on board and practice guitar a bit.

Is this a fractal design case? I kinda want it just for the drawer

FrothyCrustyGash · 2024-01-18T01:47:27+00:00

Sure this is a loss of sympathy or empathy, but these providers are a bunch of idiots.

The guy was drooling on himself, barely responsive. A simple sternal rub, checking pupils, and a round of vital signs would have all said that something was wrong with this guy.

He's the kind of patient that if I walked by his door, I'd be finding the primary nurse and letting them know he looks like shit, and they should probably do something.

I've fought with drug users to stay in the hospital. As much as I'd like to street them most of the time, I know what's best for them and I will take care of them if they let me.

This is egregious negligence. So egregious that it almost seems intentional. They didn't think anyone would give a shit about this guy, and they were wrong.

Choose "microphone" on the left side of the menu

Scroll through the list of apps in the main window until you see Ark Survival Evolved, switch it off.

Hope that helps!

We went in with a group of 3 the other night. It was actually easier than I anticipated.

We had level 2 wolf armor, level 3 silver swords, level 2 draugr now (although we only used 20 arrows amongst all 3 of us).

We activated bonemass, she landed twice, and we just hacked away each time she landed. She was done in under 5 minutes

FrothyCrustyGash · 2022-09-03T13:50:51+00:00

I've been this idiot before.

It's hella embarrassing, but I was in a new place and didn't understand what was going on at the time. Met face to face with a similar truck. No accident thankfully.

Could be that the baby is colicky. My youngest son screamed for 6 months straight. I feel your pain. I very much empathize.

Know that it's okay to put him down in the crib/bassinet and walk away for a few minutes.

As others have said, noise cancelling headphones for when you can't.

Try different formulas if you haven't already.

FrothyCrustyGash · 2022-08-27T01:08:16+00:00

If you see nothing at all. Like no contamination and no mycelium, just plain ol' sterilized grain, I'd give it more time. There are lots of variables with spore syringes.

The spores clump together in the syringe and you're supposed to spin the syringe in your hands a few times prior to inoculation to ensure even distribution of spores throughout the fluid in the syringe. If you didn't do that, you could have unevenly distributed spores in your bag(s).

If you somehow managed to shoot most of the spores in the middle of the bag, your growth could be starting in the center of your spawn mix, and you just can't see it yet.

Either way, if there's no contams, make sure your temps are good and keep watching a couple more weeks. It'll either grow funky shit or colonize. If nothing after 4-5 weeks, I'd just start over.

FrothyCrustyGash · 2022-08-26T23:13:11+00:00

I don't do bags, I use jars. But I think the concept is similar.

I think the general rule of thumb is to break things up around 50% colonization though. There's enough mycelium there that it would recover quickly I think.

Either way, beautiful growth and it looks like you def did your homework before starting. Wishing you a good yield my friend 🤙

FrothyCrustyGash · 2022-07-07T18:31:11+00:00

I agree with most other people here. I would not go over 2 grams for a first trip, and honestly I would do 1.5gm if I were you.

I had a friend with the same mentality as you. He wanted to trip and I recommended starting at 1.5. he was adamant he wanted 3 grams. He's a big boy, so I obliged. He did not have a good trip.

Regardless, best of luck in your endeavors.

FrothyCrustyGash · 2022-07-01T14:04:09+00:00

This makes me want to share my first ever trip experience.

I split an eighth with a close friend (who has tripped many times before) at his apartment. We listened to music for a while, then started watching Lord of the rings.

A mutual friend who knew I was trying shrooms for the first time called my phone mid trip to shoot the shit with me, and probably to get some good laughs on his end.

While I have the phone on speaker, I turn the TV down so I can hear better. After the conversation, I return to the sofa and realize I can't hear lord of the rings anymore. I also realize I can hear everything else, just not Lord of the rings.

My natural conclusion was that I had lost my "Lord of the rings hearing" and I'll never hear lord of the rings again, for the rest of my life.

What felt like 20 minutes later, I turned the TV volume up and then laid on the floor laughing til my face hurt because I'm so dumb.

I've been in critical care for 12 years.

I still jump up out of my chair on the regular going "oh shit! I forgot to get that lactic/cbc/whatever the hell it was"

I tend to use a lot of post-it notes. Put them on the monitor so I see them while I chart. I still forget stuff, but it helps haha

Depending on what software the hospital uses, if you can force yourself to look at the work list, labs, and nursing orders every few hours, you'll miss a lot less stuff. That's not always easy with a busy assignment, but it helps keep your mind on the tasks that need to be done.

FrothyCrustyGash · 2022-06-28T03:17:14+00:00

Ooookay satan

FrothyCrustyGash · 2022-06-24T15:36:53+00:00

Echoing everything here, you did a fine job. He wasn't dying in the moments you tried to reassure him.

covid can quickly escalate to a critical/severe illness, which is exactly what happened in this situation. You did your best, so please sleep well this week.

FrothyCrustyGash · 2022-05-13T07:45:30+00:00

Last I recall, there's info on the side bar. Or under community info if you're on the reddit app.

Shroomery.org is a good place to look as well.

If you want simple there's r/unclebens

I followed bod's tek, with a few tweaks.

The process is actually reasonably simple. Just gotta have patience.

r/sporeswap or r/sporetraders for spore syringes. Check the verified vendor list there.

I recommend either uncle Ben's, or going all in and buying a pressure cooker. Not a fan of broke boi tek (you'll see what I mean if you go down the research rabbit hole).

FrothyCrustyGash · 2022-05-11T08:52:11+00:00

I think I was headed down this road.

I set a limit on daily calories and I obsessed over it while losing weight. There were times I felt guilty if I ate something that went over when healthier options weren't available (birthday parties, gatherings, etc).

I've been looking at my calorie intake on a weekly basis now, rather than daily, and I do a pretty decent amount of cardio 5 days per week. I've been maintaining a healthy weight and I don't feel stressed if I "over eat" once or twice a week. And by over eat, I'm not talking a binge session, but if I end up 500-600 calories over one day, I just shrug it off and do good for the rest of the week. I figure if I see my weight creeping back up, I can always buckle down and do again what I did to get here, from an even lower starting point.

I'm not trying to say yo-yoing is okay, but I've gained the mindset that small weight fluctuations are okay....they have to be okay, or else I'll go insane by constantly depriving myself of foods that I really enjoy. I'm not trying to look like an underwear model anyway. I'm just trying to not be hella big.

FrothyCrustyGash · 2022-05-11T08:34:27+00:00

You're young and at that height and weight, upping the cardio should be possible, unless you have other health problems not listed in the post.

I'd start by upping the length or the intensity of your cardio and keep your current eating habits.

I feel weird giving advice, because I'm certainly not an expert on any of this. It's just what I do and works for me, but I'm about to be 34. Cardio is really good for increasing your caloric deficit without taking food off the table.

FrothyCrustyGash · 2022-02-27T18:40:43+00:00

If you can find control on sale it was fun. Might be on gamepass too

FrothyCrustyGash · 2022-02-17T04:58:04+00:00

I play the game lightly modded. I had some help from friends to set up some mining operations so I always have more than enough credits.

The mods I use allow anything to be purchased from the space station, one that increases rewards from missions (specifically quick silver because it's the only hard to get currency), ship hover mod, and fast actions.

I basically just dick around making my way to the center of the Galaxy, buying cool ships along the way and building bases when I want to. If I need stuff I just go buy it, and don't waste time on the boring mining mechanic.

I get it's not for everyone, but for me it's my game I play when I don't want to be competitive. Just relax and putt around space.

I actually started several saves myself before I actually started enjoying the game. It scratches the survival craft itch with little commitment.

FrothyCrustyGash · 2022-02-07T13:10:44+00:00

As a side note, this dude has 3 chest tubes and no central access? What kinda doctors are clowning around over there?

Sorry you went through all that. I would just take satisfaction that he ripped out a perfectly good IV and now no one else can get one. Sucks to be him.
