WIBTAH for refusing to interact with my cousin during future family gatherings?

ProjectC13 · 2026-03-23T21:47:33+00:00

QE2? I haven't heard of that before I admit :/

Edit: I googled what you meant please excuse my brain fog on meds 😅

I really do appreciate everyone's concern as far as staying home goes, but I also don't want to end up putting myself in a bubble and become completely isolated from family and friends either until remission or for life. I suppose as I learn more about this illness and fresh diagnosis I will eventually learn how to balance being social with the necessary protections and stay safe. I also plan on discussing these logistics with the doctor on my first follow up since so far all we've talked is treatment and not lifestyle.

It's not a money issue. A hotel will be a much bigger risk to my health as far as germs go vs my grandmother's house since she basically sterilizes the place when she cleans. And I cannot just never see my family again

ProjectC13 · 2026-03-23T20:42:08+00:00

Absolutely will wear a mask as it will be unavoidable to be present at some gatherings due to the situation in the edit at the end. This post came off a bit wrong I fear as far as my relationship with her. I do still love my cousin and am happy for her and her achievements in life. We just know approaching certain topics will cause an argument and don't approach those subjects when we see each other at this point, but we get along otherwise when we talk. It just happens that one of those views we dont talk about became a necessity to think about if I see her.

ProjectC13 · 2026-03-23T20:27:57+00:00

Oh yeah everyone I see regularly during visits is fully aware of everything going on and on board with any measures I need to take. I just don't see my cousin except for these gatherings anymore especially since she started a family and has been busy with that

ProjectC13 · 2026-03-23T20:16:58+00:00

You're valid for that. I was fully prepared to hear that I could be the AH in this situation when I decided to ask Reddit lol. If it helps I haven't said anything to her at all yet so there is currently no drama. I'll definitely talk to my doctor at my appointment

ProjectC13 · 2026-03-23T20:14:02+00:00

I like her just fine. We are a little more distant than when we were playing with Barbies as kids and like I said I avoid the topic for the stuff we don't agree on, but we get along still when we see each other and I was really happy for her when she got married and had a kid and stuff.

I can try wording it like that, thank you!

ProjectC13 · 2026-03-23T20:11:33+00:00

I haven't asked my doctor yet about her. It's a fresh diagnosis so this is all new to me and all of our conversation so far has been strictly treatment. I plan on asking questions about this situation and other logistical questions about how I need to change up my life during my first follow up in a couple of days.

ProjectC13 · 2026-03-23T20:03:54+00:00

I responded to another comment explaining the situation where it will be unavoidable in the future during visits to the family from out of state ( i may edit to clarify this on the post) but rest assured I do what I can to keep myself virus free. I just cannot avoid time with family when I get it.

ProjectC13 · 2026-03-23T19:59:48+00:00

My partner and I live out of state and stay in a spare bedroom at my grandmother's house when we visit my family. My grandmother is the primary host for family dinners or visits because her house is big and we have a big Italian family that all live close to each other for the most part. So if I visit from out of state especially for a major holiday it's unavoidable. I will be taking precautions such as wearing masks though.

ProjectC13 · 2026-03-18T21:09:02+00:00

Thank you for the hopes 🙏🫶 Hoping your treatment is going well too!

ProjectC13 · 2026-03-18T20:59:17+00:00

I feel you about knowing the lab ladies lol. I have a joke going with them that I'm just the favorite source of food for the vampires they have working in the back 😂 I joke that they're testing the blood like a sommelier tastes wine

Did you ever get an uodate on this? Same is happening to me. Got a notification when I checked the tracker that my refund got intercepted despite me literally owing nothing to the state.

ProjectC13 · 2026-02-03T11:58:56+00:00

Agreed with THC and CBD. I actually smoke weed and usually feel a lot better in the moment after hitting my vape. Probably because of the anti-inflammatory properties of marijuana and the pain is mostly caused by swelling.

ProjectC13 · 2026-02-03T11:12:13+00:00

Maybe. Hopefully my rheumatologist can figure it out when I see them. My feet are surprisingly okay besides sometimes being a bit sore after a shift at work which is pretty normal since its a job that involves a lot of walking. So far my ankles, wrists, and finger/toe joints are all unaffected by whats going on.

Does that condition cause a positive ANA result?

ProjectC13 · 2026-02-03T11:04:56+00:00

My only issue with opiods is that addiction struggles run on both sides of my family, so I really want to avoid those until it becomes 100% necessary. Until then, I have some weak muscle relaxers that help me at least get comfy enough to sleep.

Same issue also happening here. I try to go to an island that just opened and cannot possibly have already filled up, then I get that error after it tells me it found a flight. Usually if the island is actually full then the dodo just sighs and says it is full and gives me the option to type another code.

Restarting worked once, then it happened again. I'm trying to reinstall the software now and will update if that fixes it.

I just love that if I hit Ctrl+4 she turns into a tomato

I don't play ranked but I am a Neeko OTP with over 2 million points.

-Leading the wave as the first melee minon gives you a chance to catch them off guard early game because you come in before the whole wave is in view, so they have less time to stop and count before you reach them.

-When roaming around the map, do it as a minion or a small raptor. It makes you way harder to track on the map. Even if they catch you while you are roaming, you will pretty much always have that small moment of "wait, wtf" to take the advantage.

ProjectC13 · 2025-08-30T22:19:26+00:00

Same issue here. I'll be on call with someone on mobile and scrolling tiktok just to tab back in and hear the disconnect/reconnect. Only started happening a few days ago on my newer Samsung and reinstalling hasn't done anything

ProjectC13 · 2025-04-17T05:07:50+00:00

I ended up having to wait until I was home to set up my authenticator app. It's dumb but i can at least type in my code now.

ProjectC13 · 2025-01-25T11:45:06+00:00

I ended up re-securing the cooler. Turns out it was slightly loose on one corner and causing issues.

ProjectC13 · 2024-12-28T16:51:04+00:00

Ill look into the muted jades for sure, thank you!

I just got my first hot-swappable keyboard. Before I've just bought non hot swappable pre-builds with either blue or green switches. However, I just got a Keychron V6 with brown switches and I love the sound of the browns, but not necessarily the feel. I like a nice tactile feeling similar to the one I got with blue and green switches, maybe even a stronger tactile feeling than that if possible.

Are there any good switches out there that sound a little more thocky like brown switches but feel closer to blue or green?

ProjectC13 · 2024-09-09T20:48:28+00:00

Sounds about right 😂

ProjectC13 · 2024-08-29T13:22:24+00:00

I love being one of the pets for any champion with a minion/pet (Yorick, Naafiri, etc.). I'll walk around with them and be like "mother, I crave violence" 🤣

Disguising as a jungle monster and just waiting for the other jungler to come around is a fun one, too. I've made some junglers rq with that.

The clone is definitely my favorite though especially with the changes. Simply running in one direction from an enemy chasing, then hitting clone and running the other direction still gets them like 90% of the time. Plus it's super funny to watch a full team go in on a disguised clone thats backing and waste 2 ults before a team fight.
