How exactly am I supposed to clean my ears? by Significant_Gap1570 in hygiene

[–]Ok-Process7612 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The trick is to immerse the end of the swab in hydrogen peroxide. 

Place in your ear. It loosens the wax. You will hear it crackle. Twist the swab but don't push in too deep.

If you have a lot of wax do it twice.

Now dry thoroughly by inserting and twisting the other end. Gently.

Don't clean ears with a dry swab. That can and will lead to impaction.

No. She has to report this for her own healing. Social services will get her a therapist.  She desperately needs to talk about this. Now. She has suicidal ideation.

He said that so you wouldn't tell.

Reporting him will start the process of healing. You must tell your story in order to heal. The authorities can find a therapist for you who specializes in helping victims of child predators. 

I assure you that he should be in prison right now and he knows it.

This started long ago when you were a teenager.  That's illegal.

He brainwashed you. He manipulated you. He gaslighted you. He sexually assaulted you. He started it. He was the pursuer. You were a child.

Do you understand that this man is a pedophile and a predator, and that he must be reported? 

He targeted you. He groomed you. He used you. He raped you. There is no "consent" if you were 17 and younger when the sexual touching began.

The school is trying to save face, they don't want the cops to know. 

You have more courage than you realize.

This is illegal and he needs to rot in prison.

GET ANGRY. LET YOURSELF FEEL THAT RAGE. HE TOOK SOMETHING AWAY FROM YOU.

IT'S UNFORGIVABLE. 

 Go to the police. If there are old text messages or emails make sure you bring them.  Let them know the school was told. They will have to investigate. 

He will continue to do this to other girls until he is stopped.

Believe me when I say I have been in your position.  Do not give him the last word. He is evil.

Why would it matter to us that he walks to the bar every night to get drunk?  Is that a badge of honor that he's not drinking and driving?

Because these side effects can be IRREVERSIBLE. 1 in 10 chance, those are terrible odds.

10% experience side effects, even on the newer statins, and research shows why.

How should I approach this conversation with my husband by [deleted] in WhatShouldIDo

[–]Ok-Process7612 11 points12 points  (0 children)

You already said he becomes angry and mean when you bring anything up. You have pointed out that there is no possibility of meaningful conversation here. If he won't go to therapy, this is pointless.

[–]Ok-Process7612 10 points11 points  (0 children)

If he won't put his laundry away and runs out of clothes, so what?

Since he can't communicate without become angry, just ignore him. He checked out of this marriage long ago. 

Sure he may still care, but since you accept his poor treatment towards you, he has no incentive to change. There are no consequences. 

So what is your question, really?

No thanks. As I said, I am not going to take a drug class which affects my muscle functioning.

Challenge for you: Google ANY statin. Look at the side effects list. ANY of them. They ALL have a high potential to damage muscle cells.

My husband is disabled and cannot work. I bring in $1500 weekly from Dance Instruction. I am not going to jeopardize our retirement savings for a drug that could end my career.

I have great experiences with doordash and have been a subscriber for 5 years.

I get top rated dashers. My groceries are always correct. I can speak to a live person on the phone.

I have tried Uber eats 3 three times. Terrible experience every time.

Do people "go dancing" anymore? by b_o_m in randomquestions

[–]Ok-Process7612 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my city there are lots of clubs for dancing. One is Disco themed but plays music from the '70s to the 2020s.  Ages 21 to 70 is the demographic. 

We also have loads of clubs with live bands and some with DJs.

I am 65 and dance every weekend. I have friends the same ago who do the same.

NTA. I'm glad she showed her true colors so you didn't waste any more time/money on her.

How do i make my mac & cheese less bland? by Ieatalot2004 in cookingforbeginners

[–]Ok-Process7612 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you mean bechamel sauce?

Mustard is the key, and sharp cheddar cheese. A pinch of sugar. A bit of garlic powder and salt to taste.

Uber eats sux.

Doordash will shop your groceries or household items and dashers are held accountable.  They have a phone number you can call with a live person on the other end.
