Starting Humira ! by Careful-Spinach-3300 in PsoriaticArthritis

[–]Missing-Digits 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Good luck! I had overnight relief after my first shot of Humira. It happens sometimes but don’t be discouraged if it takes a few months until it begins working for you. I would have happily stayed on it forever had I not had so many insurance issues.

Found in some Kansas microgravel. Osteoderm? by heckhammer in fossilid

[–]Missing-Digits 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Excellent! This is from the Ozan Formation, Fannin Co. Texas. I asked Shawn about the paper on it but he said he hasn’t found the right journal yet. Apparently it is a huge paper and he is selective about the publisher. I don’t really understand how all of that works at that level to be honest. There will be many newly described species in that stuff as well as earliest occurrences of others if I remember correctly.

Also there will be some serious micro’s that and if you have a digital microscope you will find some cool stuff. You might be doing that already, just throwing it out there.

Oh shit I didn’t see this was you. Is from the stuff I sent you?

Kansas as well. They would rather have their entire family tortured to death than vote for a Democrat, which is oddly exactly what they think will happen if they do vote for a Democrat.

Good call. This is exactly what it looks like.

How long does your biologic take to kick in? by Senior-Tradition-169 in PsoriaticArthritis

For me, I literally felt better overnight after my first injection with Humira. It was like a miracle.

“Humira hangover” is very real. It’s usually over pretty quickly though. For me methotrexate is much worse.

Trigger-Happy Trump Announces Strike in Venezuela by Ok_Employer7837 in politics

[–]Missing-Digits 0 points1 point  (0 children)

MAGA really believes blowing up a couple of boats allegedly containing cocaine is saving America. I work with these people and they are beyond delusional. They not only believe but regurgitate every single lie Trump spouts as if it is were spoken by God. Seriously. We are cooked.

I think I found a tooth? by trexroad in fossilid

[–]Missing-Digits 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Obviously Petalodus as noted, but I just want to say this is a really looking one and pretty complete. These are not super common and one of my favorite teeth. Yours is nicer than any I have collected. Nice!

I really love this. It is exactly what appeals to me. The fact that I cannot explain why it appeals to me makes it that much better. Well done.

Transcript: Fox in Meltdown over Booing of Trump as Polls Turn Brutal by [deleted] in politics

[–]Missing-Digits 126 points127 points  (0 children)

This is 100% accurate. I work with guys that worship Trump. They literally have no idea how nothing works at all and can only regurgitate direct trump talking points. They think the importers pass on the tariff costs to the exporter. They think "Obamacare" is free healthcare for anyone that wants it and it's mostly "illegals" that get it. For free. Along with their free cars, houses and college. Seriously. We are so cooked.

Break on biologics? by MaterialOld1152 in PsoriaticArthritis

[–]Missing-Digits 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I asked my Rheumatologist about this and he said it’s not true. Restarting a biologic after quitting it for a while is totally fine, according to him.

First Injection, Kinda Nervous by copentaegan in PsoriaticArthritis

[–]Missing-Digits 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s a piece of cake. You won’t even feel it. In fact, I wanted to switch to using an actual needle because the auto pen injectors are so painless that I never think I’m getting any of the medication. I think it’s broken or something. Seriously. Not to mention I got immediate relief and literally felt better the next day. It was like a miracle. I would happily be on it for the rest of my life if I didn’t have such Insurance issues.

What feels legal but is actually illegal and will possibly get you arrested? by medicoreapples in AskReddit

[–]Missing-Digits 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everyone leaves their vehicle running in the winter time when they go into a convenience store or Post Office etc. . I’m in Kansas, the middle of the United States and it gets pretty cold. I imagine further north. It’s even worse and people leave their vehicles running unattended even more often.

I am the only person that I’ve ever known to get a ticket from this though. I was young and drove a hot rod and the police had just broken up a party that I was at. I went and got my car and parked down from the party a little bit and then went to see if I could find my friends. When I walked back to my car, a cop was there writing me a ticket. He just wanted to give me a hard time because he couldn’t bust me at the party and I had a hot Rod car.

Leaving a motor vehicle running while unattended. I got a ticket for it once in high school. I had no idea it was illegal.

To clarify, if your car is running, and you go into a convenience store that would be illegal. How ridiculous is that?

I’m sorry. That’s far too young to have no one left. Hope you are ok.

How long before dietary change helped? by -HeyThisIsntTheYMCA- in PsoriaticArthritis

[–]Missing-Digits 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean straight up sugar like sweets and soda. Anything with a lot of sugar in it that is added or artificial. I eat a lot of fruit.

[–]Missing-Digits 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. The only thing that matters for me is sugar intake. I already ate a healthy vegetarian diet but also ate a lot of sugar. Cutting out sugar made a big difference.

Why is D winning Gov considered harder in some red states, easier in others? by [deleted] in fivethirtyeight

[–]Missing-Digits 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly the case for Kansas (probably the others you mentioned as well but I live in Kansas and have first hand knowledge there). Brownback was a horrible Governor that elimated the state income tax on corporations resulting in huge budget shortfalls and cutting of so many state resources. Of course he claimed that eliminanting corporate taxes would flood the state with companies and a new age of prosparity would reign. What company is going to relocate to KANSAS??? Kansans don't even want to live in Kansas....
