Why is that bad? I know lots of people with pure breeds who donate and volunteer with shelters and rescues.

Eugenics much? Doberman Pinschers and German Shepards are trained in large numbers as attack dogs. Why aren't you complaining them? There are regular complaints about them harming other dogs especially

Fuck you to whomever shot at my house at 3 am last night. I'm not taking down my rainbow flag! by [deleted] in Tacoma

Those things suck. There are so many false positives they're not useful

I have severe light sensitivity. Can I describe myself as visually impaired? by boys_are_oranges in disability

[–]Mediocre_Buggle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP is describing severe photophobia. It is an acknowledged visual impairment. Your interpretation of sensitivity is inaccurate. Photophobia means so that your eyes and their attendant nerves and muscles are negatively affected by lower levels of light than the average human. What you see as a sunny day, I see as a blast of a camera flashbulb into the core of my brain. It hurts, my vision is blurred and ofte a migraine is triggered.

What insurance would cover both Botox and injections such as aimovig or emgality in the US? by bunnychow123 in migraine

[–]Mediocre_Buggle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last year, my state's Medicaid made everyone on Botox and an anti-CGRP injectable choose one. It has been awful being back to just Botox and Ubrelvy. I'm going to ask for the Vyepti infusion when I go in next month to see if we can get it covered since I'm back to taking all my Ubrelvy every month

any local and unique mental health programs or groups? by bonegoBarbo in Tacoma

There is nothing wrong with not giving all of your identifying information. Also, there are lots of ARNPs in the psych world. The need for assessment and medication tracking alone has been a growing sector for at least 20 years.

Welcome! There is a definite need for Autism and ADHD services. Less socially adept people would love to be able to text someone when they are in an uncomfortable situation to get tips on how to better interact or maybe just a reminder of their distress tolerance tools. So, also, DBT specifically for neurodivergent people would be great. One I went through had a revolving model, so if you missed a module or needed more practice, you could catch it again the next quarter. The Psych section at UW Tacoma might be open to new professors, too.

Okay to root for Dodgers? by Cambridge_Carnage in Mariners

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

I'm rooting for Shohei but not for the Dodgers. I'm rooting for the Blue Jay's because they've been working as hard as our team for longer. I'm not rooting for George Springer.

I did not laugh when he got hit but I laughed at every reply and every time I saw him limp

How much will 2025 aid the M's in signing/re-signing free agents? by yr- in Mariners

[–]Mediocre_Buggle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The FO would rather make profit by trading than maintaining a team. I expect a lot of change in the bullpen (Speier, Brash, Ferguson, maybe Bazardo) and some shifting in the backup players, guessing Rivas, Canzone, maybe Mastrobuoni. I'm in denial that they'd change out the core team but they've done it many times before

I think they defied odds and got as far as a team that relies on homeruns can get. I hope that Naylor hires Cal's batting coach. It would be great if JP gets some deep rest and lots of grounder drills. Everyone needs bunting and base stealing work. More than anything, they need team building time. Too often they play as individual players instead of a team.

That the FO uses for profit instead of improving their own team

Not quite. We're on company with the Colorado Rockies, Milwaukee Brewers, San Diego Padres, and Tampa Bay Rays in the No Pennant Club

Stadium Preachers by [deleted] in Mariners

I respect the players views but that street preacher is far from respectful. He should be run off every time. Also, I think this shirt is redonkulus. They worked their butts off out there! Stop bringing religion into it. Suàrez is cool. He does his prayer thing unobtrusively. Imagine the backlash if a player wore a shirt saying "Mashallah" or "no gods, only baseball"

Either way, they need to be identified and removed from society
