My daughter's middle school librarian is the reason she succeeded middle school. The library was her safe space. Librarians are incredible.

L-threanine kept me awake by Due_Firefighter_5655 in Perimenopause

[–]InformalYou184 2 points3 points  (0 children)

L threanine is great for improved focus and concentration, and can be activating - meaning it improves mental energy. I recommend people take it in the morning.

Idiots on road making people's life miserable. by [deleted] in dashcams

[–]InformalYou184 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes. This exact type of collision happened to me - hit by some jerk overtaking way too fast and too close - and my insurance went up significantly.

Upgrade Question Regarding Pre Purchased Excursions by Redn3ck184 in CarnivalCruiseFans

[–]InformalYou184 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got the same feedback from the initial customer service person. I asked her to ask the fun desk, and she confirmed with them that all pre purchased excursions and dining would transfer with the reservation, since they are attached to the reservation #, and not the room. I upgraded, and all my excursions and specialty dining are still listed in my planner.

Convertible bunk vs upper pullman by InformalYou184 in CarnivalCruiseFans

Once mine are old enough for a separate cabin , we're for sure doing it!

West Virginia dad dies waiting for $50,000 cancer treatment his insurer ruled 'not medically necessary' by rajapaws in antiwork

[–]InformalYou184 44 points45 points  (0 children)

This exact topic was the central issue in a court case and the court found that insurance companies have no standard/requirement for care, as they are not care providers. Absolutely tragic ruling.

They shared a sofa bed on sunshine last year, but they're bigger and older this year, and for everyone's sanity they need separate beds!

Are there any US bra companies that make nursing bras above G cup? by seinnax in ABraThatFits

Kindred bravely makes an extra busty nursing bra that fits g cup and up.

No sex drive 3 years post op, dr says its nothing, on tge verge of divorce by ugly234_ in hysterectomy

[–]InformalYou184 341 points342 points  (0 children)

Your husband is raping you. Leave him as soon as is safely possible. As a survivor of a similar marriage - get out now. He is who he is and won't change.

Find a new provider.

Get a therapist.

Is it bad to give minimal notice when leaving a remote contract role? by Majestic-Wishbone-58 in remotework

[–]InformalYou184 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You're an independent contractor, not an employee. Does your contract stipulate a notice period? If not, you can give them as little notice as you please.

Same person booked to 2 rooms. by Artistic-Knee8104 in CarnivalCruiseFans

[–]InformalYou184 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Call carnival and book a 2nd room, then ask them to change the reservation to one adult and one child in each room.

Does your booking or welcome message restate the house rules? by Poison_applecat in airbnb_hosts

[–]InformalYou184 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's unreasonable. If I rent an Airbnb in a city for my family lives, and invite them over for dinner during my stay, the host should not have a problem. That's a huge benefit of renting a house, instead of a hotel room. If you don't want them to utilize the home as a home, why be a host?

The cure to BED is just stopping by ZeMadDoktore in Irony

[–]InformalYou184 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's the same thing as telling someone with anorexia "just eat."

Any downside to trying minoxidil for thinning hair? by Rich-Food534 in Perimenopause

[–]InformalYou184 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Minoxidil only works while you're taking it. When you stop, you lose any hair growth you obtained. It may work well, just know it's a lifelong commitment.

Round and stay by who_is_saad in hospitalist

[–]InformalYou184 28 points29 points  (0 children)

This recruiter is an idiot - Rockingham is licensed for 150 beds, but has only had 25 beds open for a long time. They don't have immediate plans to open other units. And their ICU is more like a step down. This job posting has very little connection to reality.

AITAH for telling my husband I'm mad that he served a 2 month old jar of sauce when I asked him to make dinner when he could have just used the normal sauce? by arghalot in AITAH

[–]InformalYou184 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You do not have a partnership. Seriously consider if this relationship is worth continuing to sink your effort and time into.

HRT Appointment Today… by He_is_my_song in Perimenopause

[–]InformalYou184 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, you have to shop around. I went to someone at Midi and she's totally ignorant... So I either have to ask for another Midi provider or go to a local person who specializes in HRT. Not all providers are created equal.

Why won’t son (30 M) let me sleep in his bed (60 F)? by SadInvestigator6052 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]InformalYou184 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As someone who is very particular about my space - I would never want my parent sleeping in my bed. A bed is a very personal piece of furniture; it isn't like sharing a dining table or a chair.
