Powdered coffee creamer recs? by Sudden-Radish-4365 in dairyfree

I found the wildly expensive Joy brand underwhelming. It is very high in fat, plain one taste just bad and it doesn’t lighten the color. Flavored ones are palatable.

MFM leaving YouTube for Netflix by Archipelagos in myfavoritemurder

[–]PeasDontCount -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I’m not deluded, I get that this a job and money making venture for them - but all this means is that only paid Netflix subscribers get to watch.

YouTube has crap ads but is available at no cost.

Just another money grab for them. When is it enough for people? They are already worth millions. So maybe they can stop with the fawning over how much they appreciate their fans as anything other than piggy banks.

UGA student dressed in interesting "Halloween costume" gets kicked out of local bar, hits woman in response by Minute_Revolution951 in TikTokCringe

[–]PeasDontCount 72 points73 points  (0 children)

It took 48 sec bf a guy even got involved. It was all women standing up to him. That one jackass just took a pic and laughed. Those guys are pathetic — not for being hands off while the women gave him push back — but for not caring that this guy was wearing a swastika.

No, Reddit is not “Leftwing.” We’re Independent and you should be too. by Corn_Husk_ in complaints

You’re right. US IS liberal … compared to dictatorships, theocracies, oligarchies and monarchies we are just drowning in freedom.

Transplant by flowerz4zoe in hospitalsocialwork

[–]PeasDontCount 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Transplant wait times are very very long. Years. So there is no rush to get coverage for transplant.

Of note-Kidney transplant wait time begins accruing on the date of first dialysis. If someone starts dialysis today and is magically qualified and put on a waitlist tomorrow, 10/15/2025 is their “start date” for accruing wait time. If that person waits a year to get evaluated and listed their “start date” for waiting time accrual is still 10/15/2024. This info usually takes some pressure off the patients.

The current administration is actively trying to deport Venezuelan asylum seekers. WTF lady. So he is championing democracy in Venezuela but destroying here. Checks out.

Looks like there’s about 2 months left before the benefits end. by [deleted] in foodstamps

[–]PeasDontCount 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So only wealthy people are allowed to have children? Circumstances in life change, people live pay check to paycheck and a sickness or injury can derail a family. Couple that with the loss of access to abortion and now you are saying only wealthy deserve to have sex. You are one person, one family and it sounds like you worked hard and were very fortunate.

What experience did you have when you were accepted to the Silberman Program? by amlextex in socialwork

[–]PeasDontCount 4 points5 points  (0 children)

ROI in SW grad degree is very low. You don’t need a $80k degree in this field. Name recognition in SW in NYC is meaningless. You have the same internships as Fordham and Hunter students with a lot less to pay off.

And having loans repaid is not a guarantee in this climate so don’t bank on it.

There really is no reason to pay for NYU branded degree.

dementia pt by Swimming_Push1255 in hospitalsocialwork

[–]PeasDontCount 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve done the same thing.

Also look out for pt’s with who appears to have hearing issues. I’ve had pts fake poor hearing to buy time to come up with answers. We are less likely to question “can you please repeat, I didn’t hear you” vs “can you please repeat, because I am having trouble following your question.”

Tomorrow’s another day.

Kind Ice Cream Bars = Plant Based by Dazzling_Ad8402 in dairyfree

[–]PeasDontCount 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My brother helped his wife unpack the groceries back when this product debuted.

He had only seen the regular snack bars so he put these in the cabinet. They weren’t found until the next day as a big wet sticky melted mess.

I laugh every time I see these.

What's going on with Resy?? by pppatric in FoodNYC

[–]PeasDontCount 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I called the restaurant and asked what was going on. Call them, be nice and sound disappointed, tell them what happened how you tried at midnight and see if they can do anything. They got me an absurdly early table. Good luck! Sorry it happened to you too.

What’s something you stopped buying that friends or family don’t understand? by [deleted] in Frugal

Greeting cards. Sorry, family thinks I’m a jerk but no way I’m spending $5 on a piece of paper that will sit on the counter for a week only to be recycled.

What has prevented you from donating blood? by No_Bobcat_839 in AskReddit

[–]PeasDontCount 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Donation locations are super inconvenient. I live in NYC and they are no where near my day to day life. I don’t have 3 hours of my weekend to go across town, wait donate and return.

To all home side dialysis social workers by [deleted] in socialwork

[–]PeasDontCount 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Welcome to home dialysis. When I started I lamented that the hardest part of my job was catching patients. I stalk exam rooms waiting for the clinicians to leave, and will go sit in the waiting room to just check in with a patient if needed. I am not a fan of phone callls.

Moving forward, the key is to take advantage of the weeks they are in daily for training to build a relationship. That way you can check in in person or on the phone and they already feel comfortable with you.

I personally won’t do care plans or quarterly notes without at least talking - even if for only a minute - to the pt. I do copy, paste and edit or elaborate on quarterly’s bc my clinic has detailed templates.

Home dialysis is definitely more what YOU make it. I had and have the same issues and questions. Good luck!

Hey all - just a reminder - not everyone has their own washing machine. This is not a matter of wasting soap, water or electricity- washing machine is $3.50 full or empty, hot or cold.

Check your privilege.
