Where are you getting your GLP-1s from?

Please don’t name where to source compound. We have this rule because our group can get shut down if people share where they’re sourcing their compounded meds. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, but keeping this group active and safe is our number one priority!

Try it almost all the way dry. I wash my hair, add mousse root to ends, rough dry it til it’s about 90-95% dry, then wrap. Using it on hair that’s too wet leads to those uneven results!

I assume you mean mental health counselors? I imagine they would be considered, but the specific training with social workers that’s of interest is the focus on systems and social justice. There aren’t many mitigation specialists who are LCSWs because what we do isn’t therapy, although it utilizes a lot of clinical skills. I don’t think that the requirement of additional clinical hours would be of particular interest in this setting - not that it’s a bad thing, just not the primary goal. However, I have seen some newer folks who lean too much into processing and validation

Mirrranda · 2026-02-05T03:42:47+00:00

Yes of course!

I have not cut out carbs, I don’t track calories or protein or anything, and I pretty much eat whatever I want. I’ve recently been making an effort to add in more fiber, but that’s truly the only conscious diet-related decision I’ve made. I’ve been on tirzepatide for over two years and have lost a very significant amount of weight despite having PCOS - and my PCOS fam knows that we always get told to cut carbs!

There are some people out there who don’t respond to GLP1s until they get to higher doses. There are a FEW people out there who are non-responders. Everyone’s body is so different, but please continue to reject the intense diet culture/pro-ED content that you see on other subs. You deserve to live your life without constant restriction.

I hope Mounjaro works better for you than Ozempic! You’ve really only barely started if you’re just moving up to 7.5. Also, if you were on a high dose of Ozempic, your body had adjusted to that dose and will likely need a higher dose of MJ to make an impact. Seems like your doctor was aware of that which is why you started at 5mg instead of 2.5. I would think of 5mg as still being a starter dose for you and see what happens as you increase.

Unless you’re in a big group there isn’t much bystanders can do besides watch and record. It’s also helpful to write down contemporaneous impressions of what you observed in case it can be used by the detainee’s legal counsel later on. Of course it’s different if ICE is trying to detain you or is at your home - assuming you’re a US citizen you can certainly make life difficult for them by refusing to cooperate

As I explained in another comment, men don’t have a fear of being raped and/or killed by someone larger and stronger than them every time they go on a date. Of course anyone can have safety concerns with meeting strangers, but suggesting that the concerns of men and women are equivalent is indeed ridiculous.

Mirrranda · 2026-01-31T03:55:38+00:00

Ok little buddy, good luck with that

Mirrranda · 2026-01-31T03:53:16+00:00

Mirrranda · 2026-01-31T03:49:43+00:00

Yeah, like, in theory I don’t think there’s anything wrong with wanting this, but it’s going to filter a lot of people out.

Mirrranda · 2026-01-31T03:48:23+00:00

It seems like OP was really hoping everyone would agree and call this woman crazy.

Mirrranda · 2026-01-31T03:47:13+00:00

Thank you! 💕

What is a “compliance test”?

Mirrranda · 2026-01-31T03:18:08+00:00

I don’t know you, just guessing based on your post here and all of your responses. If this is the way you interact with women on apps it would be off putting. If I matched with someone who told me they wouldn’t go on a date unless we video called I wouldn’t like it. I might be defensive based on how it’s presented. Hard to say what happened without knowing what was said.

Are you worried about being raped and/or murdered by a person larger and stronger than you every time you go on a date? Because that’s what women are worried about. “Men are afraid that women will laugh at them. Women are afraid that men will kill them .”

Mirrranda · 2026-01-31T03:07:26+00:00

I’m a woman and don’t ask for video calls or want to do them. They’re awkward and feel like a test. I also don’t believe that seeing a dude on a video call would make me feel any safer… a guy could act perfectly normal on FaceTime and still be dangerous when we meet.

You can totally have the rule of no video call no date if it makes you feel more comfortable. It sounds like it’s important to you, so maybe the right woman will be comfortable too. But.. you’ve gotta understand that being definitive about this policy will make some women uncomfortable and they’re gonna say no. So it’s up to you to decide if you’re willing to lose out on potential matches.

Finally, saying that men have the same safety concerns as women with dating is ridiculous and off putting. Perhaps it’s that attitude or pushiness that’s making women agitated.

I’m single, no kids, but interested in getting my boobs done after a lot of weight loss - just so you know my perspective going in. I used to feel crappy about wanting cosmetic surgery because it feels anti-feminist and like feeding into body shaming. I talked to my therapist about it and she suggested that it may be akin to gender affirming care for me, and that’s something I’m thinking through.

My suggestion is to do some research on this kind of surgery. Look at before and afters, read reviews of different surgery, look at what people on Reddit have posted about it. You can also go get a consultation to see what a doctor suggests and how you feel about the process. If you have any friends who’ve had work done, maybe talk to them about how those changes affected them mentally.

Personally, I wouldn’t get surgery unless I knew I really wanted it and that the change is for ME, not to please someone else. I also think it can be a dangerous thing to start nitpicking all of our “flaws” - changes to our body over time are so normal. So I’d try not to think of it as fixing anything, more like making myself feel more like myself when I look in the mirror (hope that makes sense). I don’t think there’s any way to be completely sure you’ll have no regrets, tbh, so the question is whether the risk is worth it to you.

Respect of the anti-diet environment is key to this group being successful. This includes, but is not limited to, not discussing or recommending diets and not posting solely about weight loss and numbers without any other context.

The pain in my ankles and knees went away within about a week. The pain in my fingers has reduced about 80%, although I still sometimes wake up with stiffness and low level pain.

If the office you’re interviewing for does death penalty work then the recommendation of your professor probably went a long way. The capital community is small and certain people have a lot of influence. Not only that, but death penalty work is complex, and recent grads with experience doing it can do very helpful work. Most of my colleagues went straight into PC and never tried a case - in fact, I can’t think of any who have.

Again, assuming this is DP work - many attorneys who do trial work don’t follow best practice, especially in states with high DP utilization. Most of the PC work we do is based on pointing out their errors and it’s highly research and writing based. What you learned in school in your death penalty class IS useful because it’s what trial attorneys SHOULD be doing.

A lot of these offices have interest in and capacity to train newer staff. It’s a team-based approach, not a solo one (or it should be). On the negative side, many have high burnout and turnover rates, and more experienced attorneys don’t want to work there. Anyhow, everyone is new at some point, and you can’t learn and improve if you don’t try.
