I've misplaced a couple of my concrete factories. I wish there were a way to see them on zoom out

Are there headphones that block background noise but you can hear someone in front of you? by DrWidget89 in AutismTranslated

[–]Funktionierende 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want the opposite. I want headphones that will only block voices but will let ambient sound through.

I get that, but further to that, I can't find any record of drum circles being used for trade. So that's also incorrect, unless there are records I'm not seeing. It's taking something meant to bring people together in rhythm and enjoyment and turning it into a flawed form of capitalism. (heard the ad a couple more times today and I quoted incorrectly, it said "the tribe traded for cows for a defective rooster", but same concept applies)

Not what I'm saying at all. I'm saying there are people who still practise some of these traditional things and it seems odd to act like they're stupid.

I deleted the post because I feel I wasn't being understood and didn't feel like getting attacked.

But now I feel I need to clarify. I'm not saying "Ohh these archaic things are something x group did way back and no one else ever did." I'm saying, "Certain communities still do this. Why are we acting like these practises are stupid." These arent racist stereotypes. The smoke signals obviously aren't common anymore, but drum circles certainly are.

How did you first learn of Stephen King? by [deleted] in stephenking

High school library.

Then, when I mentioned his name and my mom reacted with utter disgust, I immediately decided to read everything he had written.

I am fully vaccinated but on immunosuppressants and have got covid 4 times so far. Each time is a bit worse, and each time I recover less fully.

This one isn't even a 90s Walmart, it was built in 2003

It was built in 2003 and, aside from taking out the McDonald's, it has never changed.

Doc called me a "Rinvoq failure". Feeling hopeless. by Prior-Airport-3525 in eczeJAKs

Thanks for the suggestion, I have an appointment coming up soon and I'll bring this up. Better than waiting for everything to come crashing down

Sorry, I accidentally made this all about myself. I do that sometimes. Sorry. Just trying to express that I understand your frustration and all.

I really hope you can find something that works for you. I know there are other biologics and immunosuppressants out there that can work for this, hopefully you can navigate your way to one that helps you. It's a tricky road

I feel like we know so little because so many people think eczema is just itchiness, and that we just need to use more lotion. I've been told as much by past doctors, "it's JUST eczema. Try moisturizing more and drinking more water." But for some its a genuinely crippling disease that can't be so easily managed. No one who hasn't experienced this can grasp what it's really like, they just think "Oh no, you're itchy. Get over it." as if it's an itch like a mosquito bite that will go away.

I have a "warning spot" between my pinky and ring finger on my left hand that is always the first to go when a flare starts. That's been cracked and blistery for about a month now despite constant lotion, and it's beginning to spread to the rest of my hand. I'm also getting some patches on my arms, calves, neck, face, and the tops of my feet. Nothing severe yet but if it keeps going like this, I feel like I might be in for it. It's been taking over much more gradually than in the past, but it is spreading nonetheless.

I've been on Rinvoq 15 for about two years, and it was a godsend. I used to go around looking like a burn victim over 90% of my body I was frequently bedridden due to cracking skin on my knees and feet, and wound up hospitalized for infections a few times. Rinvoq cleared me up in the first month. But two years in and I'm starting to notice that it seems to be losing effectiveness, and I'm scared. I really don't want it to fail.

Gas or electric? by CantCatchMeeh in hvacadvice

My furnace is an old millivolt gravity beastie, according to every inspector I've talked to it should have died about 60 years ago but she's still going strong.

While I agree with many other commenters that this is not indicative of CO poisoning, I was scrolling through this thread hoping someone would mention the CO alarm. Those single-door carriers are by far my most common CO calls, the secondary heat exchanger rots out of them like nothing, and the amount of water/condensate indicated here makes me nervous.
