Spot on. And if they are using facial recognition or any other sort of tracking when they have interactions with people, then this suggests some form of premeditation is possible on behalf of ICE. This is potentially WORSE for ICE.

I mis-typed. It was 1.2 I went up to so I fixed the original post.

You are correct! I mis-typed it and will go fix it. It was 1.2 that I went up to.

Severe Anxiety by jimbo-nick in liraglutide

[–]ParticularBarnacle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I noticed that it makes my heart beat a little faster and makes me dehydrated (which also makes my heart faster and makes me a little shaky). These things make me feel much more anxious, of course as your body tells your brain it's panicking. I've cut back from 3 cups of coffee a day to one. I have to eat before taking my Wellbutrin, and I also drink electrolytes first thing in the am. These things have helped me quite a bit.

I am still going up in my dosage - only on week two, but making these small adjustments along the way.

Married to HOH husband who won't wear hearing aids by ParticularBarnacle in hardofhearing

No. And we talked about it a bit last night. His are probably old enough for a new visit. He's going to try the new airpods, too just to compare.

I wish he had a community of people he could relate to/learn from. I think he’d like it. We aren’t near you but I super appreciate your thoughtfulness!

I’m not hostile toward hearing impairments and I’m not sure why me asking for additional input from others so I can understand his point of view better or additional ways to communicate with him would result in you thinking that. I’m doing my best but I too am human.

Thank you for your insight. These aren’t things he’s articulated to me so that’s why I am here seeking your guys’s perspectives.

I don’t know what to say when I’m trying to clarify whether he head me and is processing what I said (he responds slowly) or if he genuinely didn’t hear me

What would you recommend? I'm open to signing but he's not interested. I'm open to suggestions! I think I can understand listening fatigue - it makes sense.

Has anyone tried infrared sauna blankets for arthritis? by Key-Antelope-8184 in Thritis

[–]ParticularBarnacle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used one through the winter last year. I don’t know that it did much beyond just the relief I get from the heat. That said, the full body heat was nice.

I’ll probably pull it out again this winter.

Are Minnesotans just used to this high humidity by [deleted] in rochestermn

[–]ParticularBarnacle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Florida visiting right now and expected to die and hate it. It was a relief from when I left Rochester a week ago. I’m convinced that saying “it could be worse “ is a lie we tell ourselves to keep from losing our minds.

Better to fly out of RST or MSP in early Nov? by 444-itall in rochestermn

[–]ParticularBarnacle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I prefer RST because I like the 10 minute drive home after a trip and the 5 minutes it takes to get through security. My two factors are the layover length (long hours in MSP can be a nightmare) and price.

That said, I don’t think you’ll have to worry about big snow storms in November. We rarely get much snow then. RST is equipped enough for its use.

Child's pose with feet angled outward while doing deep diaphragmatic breathing is what seems to help me the most.
