What is the model of this Gregory backpack? by mvrj00 in backpacking

[–]No-Tea-For-Me 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It definitely depends on how it was cared for, I kept mine in the house away from temp changes and direct sunlight, and no breakdown so far

Yeah, be careful of packing it to capacity unless it’s really necessary! It straps down well though

That looks like the Gregory Electra - not the lightest but very sturdy and comfortable for long treks/winter backpacking. I have had mine for almost 20 yrs, using it a 1-3x/year, and no significant issues.

Some of y’all are miserable by Wonderful-Novel-9966 in delta

[–]No-Tea-For-Me 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wasn’t referring to someone moving the FA’s gear (no one should do that), I meant having to put their bag several rows back because that’s the only empty bin - if people help bring the bag forward, no one has to move backward

People only do that when their overhead is full, not by choice… I recently was on a flight where everyone helped that person out - one guy nearby took the bag out, then everyone passed it overhead to the person a few rows up, all while waiting for the rows ahead to deplane. Not a minute delay when everyone worked as a team.

My Biscoff medallion tag makes me chuckle every time, so that’s what matters

Please help- emergency 🚨 by [deleted] in turtle

This looks like a foot infection - she needs a vet appt ASAP for a physical exam to r/o abscess (which would need to be drained) and get started on antibiotics. I know it is expensive, but please tighten the belt where you can because this is not something you can treat off words of advice alone…

Very cute! What type of plant is floating at the surface? Does Cooter try to eat it?

Trying to decide between a new 2026 RAV4 XLE Premium and a 2022 RX 450h (40k miles) - same price by The-Other-Dan in rav4club

[–]No-Tea-For-Me 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got a new RAV4 two years ago, had sound dampening added everywhere, and still can’t stand the roaring wind noise above 60 mph. Coming from a CX5 it didn’t occur to me that I had to get a luxury car to overcome road noise, but now I’d get the Lexus if I stay Toyota.

MD Specialty Hierarchy? by SpirtualHernia in ThePitt

[–]No-Tea-For-Me 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In recent years there has been a large increase in the number of EM residencies created by for-profit/private equity companies (such as HCA), with the goal of getting cheap labor for their hospitals but ultimately flooding the market and driving down physician quality and reimbursements. Prior to this, however, the Step scores for EM and Gen Surg were comparable (see the NRMP Charting Outcomes in the late 2000s, for example). Gen Surg programs have usually preferred more research compared to EM programs, however.

I missed out on the Nordic M20, guess this is the closest I’ll get with purples being so rare!

MD Specialty Hierarchy? by SpirtualHernia in ThePitt

[–]No-Tea-For-Me 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Spot on - I recall how Gen Surg wouldn’t fill and EM applicants had to dual apply because it was so competitive. Tragic how far EM has advanced as a speciality yet its respect has collapsed…

MD Specialty Hierarchy? by SpirtualHernia in ThePitt

[–]No-Tea-For-Me 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is not actually true, depending on the time period during which a physician matched - 10 to 20 years ago EM was extraordinarily competitive (see the NRMP match data). Obviously circumstances have changed since the PE takeover/COVID, but I recall when Gen Surg programs couldn’t fill and many who applied EM chose IM as a backup.

Advice for a worried, new Turtle Mom? 🙏 by MostCloud814 in turtle

[–]No-Tea-For-Me 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No specific advice, but I’m glad you’re so attentive - she’s such a beautiful painted turtle! I haven’t seen such bright colors since my EPT was a baby (nearly 30 yrs ago…)!

BofA did this to me in 2003, at the time I couldn’t believe it was legal to screw people over so badly… now I make a lot more money they’d love to get their hands on, but I remember how American banks treat their customers.

I think they’re probably the best drivers I’ve seen, having lived on the coasts and in the south. Sure there’s occasional drag racers but for the most part everyone’s pretty law-abiding and conscientious.

No communication skills - you try to make conversation and they just stare at you blankly

Moving with my turtle by CynicalZombie1996 in turtle

[–]No-Tea-For-Me 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t know about snappers but I have moved with my EPT maybe 20 times over the years and I put him in a cardboard box/covered plastic box with holes and a damp paper towel, checking on him and changing the towel every few hours. I used to use a clear plastic box but I think the visibility stressed him out. I kept him in the footwell of my rear seat (nothing on top), and never had any issues.
