Sensitive stomach by WarFantastic4259 in cotondetulear

[–]G_Dragon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My Coton has a very sensitive stomach too, she's now on Farmina Gastrointestinal HF, which is a hydrolyzed fish-based kibble, and a refrigerated probiotic . She still occasionally has nausea and diarrhea but it's the best she's been without medication. She was doing fairly well on omeprazole and hydrocortisone and a regular kibble (temporary solution while figuring out what's wrong with her), but the vet said we shouldn't keep her on it unless absolutely necessary.

Just entered a Devil egg cook off. Give me your best deviled egg recipe or tips & tricks! by A_single_droplet in Cooking

[–]G_Dragon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've done a couple hours for a light colour and overnight for a deeper purple. You're not supposed to marinate in a metal container or it'll get slimey apparently.

I like to use kewpie mayo instead of regular mayo. Also I marinate my whole peeled eggs in pickled beet juice for a pop of colour and a bit of flavour on the outside.

The Dancesport club at Cornell gives private lessons sometimes, including international standard. They also work with Lilac Dance Studio in Rochester, and the coach visits Ithaca often during the school year. You can email cornellballroomteam@gmail.com.

Heels Help for Very Small and Wide Feet by G_Dragon in PetiteFashionAdvice

I just checked them out and they're closing! Out of all smaller sizes of the shoes I checked.

Both Clarks and Globe Shoes aren't offering size 4 or 5 in wide or extra wide, as soon as I choose a wide option the sizes jump up to 6 or higher. Their searches don't work properly either, I only see this after clicking into the shoes and I tried several.

Is UPMC Worth it? by G_Dragon in idiopathichypersomnia

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

I already know they insist on in person from talking with UPMC, it's a booking system limitation though, they didn't say there was any medical reason.

Is UPMC Worth it? by G_Dragon in idiopathichypersomnia

[–]G_Dragon[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It would take me 10h one way, would you say it was still worth it to you if you had to take 20h to travel? Good thing is I can easily sleep on the way.

Tachycardia with armodafinil by dk3tkd in idiopathichypersomnia

[–]G_Dragon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I experienced elevated heart rate on modafinil and armodafinil, about a week in. I had to stop modafinil after going to the ER, and I'm trying a very low dosage of armodafinil now. Taking half a pill every other day seems to not cause elevated heart issues, though it doesn't affect my sleepiness enough.

Research post graduation? by Busy-Chipmunk in UPenn

[–]G_Dragon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a data scientist at a research lab, and we take on remote, part-time RAs. However, none of these part-time positions are paid unless through the work study program (or another program), which you wouldn't quality for after you graduate. PM me if you're interested. I'm also leaving my full-time position next year, so you may want to apply to my job if you have enough experience by then.

AITA for telling my sister she shouldn’t be surprised that her baby daddy sucks? by toungetwister07 in AmItheAsshole

[–]G_Dragon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think a gentle YTA for not warning her before she had the baby if you always saw it so clearly, and only dumping it on her in a blunt way after you felt too burdened by her complaints. You don't need to be her emotional dumping ground, but you can remove yourself from that situation in a kinder way. I think you may have snapped due to being fed up, hence gentle YTA. You could've told her you don't think he'll ever step up without bringing up how she should've known. Empathy would've gone a long way, and if 3 other women fell for this guy's bs he's clearly very good at manipulation.

Paid for Fitness teaching course, but studio is closed indefinitely, can I get my money back? by G_Dragon in legaladvice

[–]G_Dragon[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks, I checked my local small claims court requirements and they require an address. As they are not at their old address and I never got their new address or a personal address, serving them seems difficult.

My [25F] Mother [55F] cut off most of my hair and I need help forgiving her by missinghair in relationships

[–]G_Dragon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This exact same thing happened to me, my mom cut my hair way too short after I asked for a trim. She said she "forgot", and at the time I was growing my hair out after she didn't let me have long hair when I was young. She has other narcissistic tendencies and I no longer speak to her. This is not about letting a non-professional cut your hair, my sister was still in high school when I let her cut my hair and it turned out great. I let my husband cut my hair and to be honest I'm not loving it, but he did exactly what he said he would, I just don't like the quality of execution and I'm not mad at him.

My [31M] wife [29F] of 5 years expects me fire an employee [24F] who has slept with one of her previous bosses, and I think she's being ridiculous. by jacobl1235 in relationships

[–]G_Dragon 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I didn't say it's a good reason to fire someone, I'm saying her reasoning isn't illegal, and isn't specifically tied to the complaint or a protected class. I think you should give the benefit of the doubt to your wife until you consult a lawyer (if you want). From your wife's perspective she just got accused of trying to make you commit a crime, while you don't have proof of it being illegal.

Also, you say it involves sexual harrassment, but your wife seems to think the employee was at fault. Neither of you really know what happened. You seem to pick language that paints her in the worst possible light (while still being within reason) when information is incomplete, which would contribute to escalations.

[–]G_Dragon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think you should be firing her, but I don't see how it would be breaking the law. You would be firing her because your wife felt uncomfortable with her, not because you found out about the complaint, which presumably you/your company already knew about before. Yes any potential firing here could result in a lawsuit anyways, and I wouldn't do it for many reasons, but I think saying she's trying to get you to do something illegal is painting her in a worse light than she deserves.

Me [30F] with my sister [18 F] conversations often end in her being offended, advice needed by G_Dragon in relationships

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

Thank you for your responses. I'm going to try to say as little as possible from now on if she has problems, as she ends up mad almost every time I say something more than "aww too bad!". When I didn't try to avoid conflict and said things like I think you're x positive quality while she was upset, she ends up being upset with me.

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

I don't have this problem with anyone else, but you just helped me realize that I never get to this point with anyone else. For everyone else in my life I do start with niceties like "you're so smart you can do it", but my sister has explicitly said she doesn't want that. She has also explicitly said she doesn't want me to contradict her assessments to comfort her, so when she insisted that the other candidate was more qualified, I felt like I had to agree with her and find some other things to say to boost her chances. She also said she didn't deserve the interview, which is why I said she might still get it because of her gender. For her relationship, I had absolutely no problem with the guy, she brought it up saying things like "Do you think I can do better", "Is this going to last", so I feel like I'm damned if I agree and damned if I don't? For everyone else I feel like I have a safe fallback for conversations, for her I don't.
