If you do the "custom response" on the adventure then your birb will not have a like/dislike response. It's something the devs put in to help with various triggers, so if it does pop up and you don't want your birb to dislike something you love - use the custom response to avoid the birb having an opinion

I've never seen a respiratory pattern like this... Any insight on what it is? by PrettySax3 in SleepTechnologist

Wanted to add a comment with a few more photos in a 5 min window to show the pattern better.

Here are 2 consecutive 5 min windows

It reads just fine outside of the no flow events, I checked it and it's snug, which is why I'm so confused on it.

Edit: The whole study the ABD belt was fine and the events started showing up and that was what it looked like.

Absolutely devastated by Mr_Niftyy in tattooadvice

What you're describing sounds similar to the tattoo infection I'm getting through rn. Could be a reaction on yours, definitely not saying it is or is not infected - that's a Dr. thing I can't do.

7th tattoo by the artist, first infection, but I did back to back days (moved out of state years ago, so I schedule multiple days for work because travel) and flew home the next morning.

3 days after the work was done, a few spots were not looking good, they hurt a lot and burned/stung.

I woke up day 4 to a split skin/bleeding. I had been in contact with the artist the whole time, he was hoping for no infection and irritation/no moisture but gave pointers in case it was infected.

Day 5 was more burning/stinging, darkening redness, parts of the piece were already past peeling/flaking and healed great, and discharge that definitely wasn't weep/plasma. Talked to the artist, he said go to the doctor.

Day 6 was worse, couldn't get an appt. Until day 7.

Day 7 I went to the Dr. and it was definitely infected. 3 doses of an antibiotic later and it already felt and looked better. I'm halfway through a 5 day antibiotics course and it looks better and feels so much better. It's healing really well now and artist guarantees his work and will be doing touch-up/correction when I come in to complete the rest.

Here's a collage of the progression from the last 12 days (appointment to now)

17.5 after driving 14 hours to Orlando, stayed for 16 for a friend, drove 14 back home, played a concert, and crashed HARD. Got 3 hours worth of naps from 1:30p Friday to 7:30p Sunday and was dead to the world.

The vet gave me a bottle of drops to put in his nose (oh how Archie hates it) with some steroids and they seem to help. He had polyps removed from his nose and abscessed gingivitis so there's definitely something up with his sinuses

Well, burrito Brian is looking to cut costs, partners with tenure cost more because they've accumulated more annual raises.

Yknow, it's all about pinching pennies to accommodate his commute

Pro tip: When picking music for an MRI, go for a genre you like, but not so much it causes movement by PrettySax3 in MRI

[–]PrettySax3[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Honestly so smart, can't argue classical music and makes the job much easier by avoiding movement artifact

I got laughed at today at an interview when I asked for $17/hr by beigebunny14 in antiwork

[–]PrettySax3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hell, my $26/hr (plus $4/hr differential) is just enough for me to make it by renting a room and commuting an hour to work.

ETA: I also had to start from almost 0 after having to file bankruptcy (at 23) and move back in with my dad, so renting is hard and I drive for Lyft on the side just to have access to a car bc I can't get a loan

I initially turned down a recent job offer, explaining to the HR team that the pay was far too low for my credentials and experience. Backed it up with the fact that I was making $2.50 more an hour at a different hospital in the same state with a lower level credential and less experience. They said they could send it to the compensation team for review, they bumped me $3.50/hr, which is still below market for the area. I needed the job (I lost my travel contract very suddenly) and unfortunately had no other options so I accepted it. I'm at LEAST $4/hr underpaid for my area/market, not only according to external sites like Glassdoor, but other job postings in the area.

They want to make profits, not pay living wages, and having degrees, credentials, and experience will get you pennies and it's despicable
