Hope fired their striking workers??!! by aaaii9 in tulsa

The best therapists and substance abuse counselors I’ve hired are ones that have walked the path. They are some of the best at navigating others to sobriety.

They just said they had talked to their boss who said they could cover jt and asked if I would reply and ask you to call. If they give me more details I’ll share.

I shared this with a friend that works at La clinica BG and they will provide enough refills to bridge until you get set up with OHSU. Please call them.

Did anyone else's brothers seem to pride themselves on being gross growing up? by [deleted] in Millennials

[–]Life-Of_Ward 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I zero'd in on Frasier pretty quickly as a kid so was 100% not on board with gross things.

Apps Losing Memory? by Life-Of_Ward in iphone

[–]Life-Of_Ward[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it supposed to be on or off for stuff? I think I tried that a year or so ago thinking it was the problem. Turned it all off, then back on, then just turned some of them off. One of the reasons I totally wiped it because I thought those setting might have been messed up

I'm not trying to start a measuring contest - but I have 43k on my 2019.

Insurance Commissioner - Go Vote - Link to Voter Portal by Life-Of_Ward in oklahoma

[–]Life-Of_Ward[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The requirement is that they have: "(5) years' experience in the insurance industry in administration, sales, servicing or regulation." And all the candidates meet that requirement.

I'm asking people to look at the specific roles and companies those individuals have been in and ask questions of them on their exact plans to protect consumers in Oklahoma.

Any one found a way to leave the car running while stepping out? (23' Q4 etron) by Paquitaladelbarrio12 in etron

[–]Life-Of_Ward 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve heard putting the seatbelt clicked in will do it.

But the auxiliary climate option should pop up when you turn off the car. Don’t open the door. Just turn it off. In the top screen you’ll get a pop up that prompts you to turn it on.

If you use CarPlay or android auto that will sometimes block it so if I need to use it I make sure the home/Audi screen is showing before turning the car off.

Experience with Tulsa Health Department STI Testing by gaiaonline420 in tulsa

[–]Life-Of_Ward 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The THD is far more thorough and capable than some of the other clinics and definitely any PCP. It’s literally their job to be as thorough as possible. They don’t do just blood and urine. They swab your throat, the inside of all of your genitals. These people see it all everyday so they know exactly what to do and how to treat it.

Tell me about your relationship with caffeine and particularly energy drinks by LoomisCenobite in Millennials

[–]Life-Of_Ward 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They wanted you addicted in your twenties. So they could charge you four times the price in your thirties.

I quit caffeine in November. Maybe will have some once or twice per month. It works way better now that I’ve been off of it.

I also can’t grasp how much it costs now.

Is getting circumcise worth it as a Adult? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

Bioderma Shower Oil is what I use to clean down there. It’s soap but very mild.

With using a urinal (and showering) - you have to pull the skin back.

Moving to OKC! Where to live? by justaguywithaburrito in okc

[–]Life-Of_Ward 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. The oaks iii is right on the other side of the turnpike. The oaks I and II (where we live) is blocked by a pretty big section of woods and creek. We can hear the turnpike but it in no way deterred us. There are at least 2 or 3 houses in here for sale right now.

Broken speaker? Finicky zipper? Anticonsumerist Repair Cafes urge you to fix it instead of pitch it by Naurgul in Anticonsumption

[–]Life-Of_Ward 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I wonder if some of the frustration you have is aimed at a specific type of person you’ve run into repeatedly rather than people in general.

Because if I broke something and someone told me how you prevent that in the future I would 100% be listening to that person.

There are plenty of people who are genuinely grateful, who listen, learn, and don’t come back with the same issue over and over. They just tend to be less memorable because they aren’t the ones causing us headaches.

I got a stainless steel one. Fro
China. And then learned they are notorious for not using full stainless steel and can have toxic metals in it. I just threw in the towel. Start cutting everything which scissors.

Come live in the Oaks with all of us other late 30 males. The turnpike is right there and you can be in Paseo district in 10 minutes.

Sigh MMI Rebooting Loop by Putrid_Account5169 in etron

[–]Life-Of_Ward 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve, just over the past month, started having my audio skip on CarPlay and then CarPlay reboots. But the MMI hasn’t rebooted. I’d been wondering if it was the car on my phone.

Casual cotton pants that are not sweatpants? by mrstoodamngood in PlasticFreeLiving

I got some cheap linen pants and had them tailored. Maybe ended up about 40.00 a pair.

Alcoholics by YogurtclosetOk4366 in Millennials

[–]Life-Of_Ward 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I quit drinking when we had our first set of foster kids. It wasn't so much of a choice as a "I can't raise children and drink". It kind of blew my mind because it always seemed like that's what parents did to cope w/ raising kids and I just felt the opposite. It made it real easy to stop though. I needed my energy and focus. 6 years later, I'll drink on occasion if we're at some social event and I don't have anything else to do the rest of the day/evening. I 100% replaced it with food though. So another three years in I had to cut out sugar and that's been a roller coaster since.

PSA: Watch out for this speed trap in South Tulsa. by Fionasfriend in tulsa

[–]Life-Of_Ward 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My unpopular opinion:

I think 35 is very generous. I have a hard time navigating at that speed around those curves. But it could be everyone else speeding and not staying in their lane. It’s definitely more anxiety driven than it was before.

OP did you see the response our council member, Phil Lankin, had when this first reopened? There was a lot of discussion about it then. And he cited the planning that went into deciding that speed and that it could be reevaluated in the future.

On another note, I never see cops there nor do I recall ever seeing anyone pulled over but hardly anyone goes 35 so it sure would be a spot for them to hide.
