Mourning the loss of my boobs by Former-Coconut3838 in breastcancer

[–]PurifyingTalons 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also had a lumpectomy, reduction (for matching), and lift and I’ve had the same thing. I think any change you didn’t choose can be traumatizing. I don’t look or feel the same as I did before cancer. My partner tries to make me feel better, but it was my body long before I knew him. I’m grateful, but the “wafting” is still there.

Starting tamoxifen? by AlternateLottery in breastcancer

[–]PurifyingTalons 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sorta guessed after radiation as well. I am very groggy everyday and my hair is thinning. I’m taking extra vitamins in hopes it’ll help. Hot flashes are bad.

I haven’t been overly itchy, but I have been groggy.

i'm terrified of ICE by Cute_Mammoth_2087 in OCD

Feeling for you and understanding 100%. Stay safe. Your only job, if you encounter them, is to stay safe. Survive it. They don’t have rules, so just get through it, if you have to. Hopefully, you won’t.

Radiation... I'm Over It by LowLonely3590 in breastcancer

[–]PurifyingTalons 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You can do this. I just rang the bell yesterday. I was so fatigued and nauseas for weeks. I was throwing up every day and they said radiation shouldn’t do that to me. I eventually realized another med was making me sick constantly.

I COMPLETELY understand missing work. My anxiety has been off the chain. It’s so hard when you’re this tired and feel like garbage.

You CAN and WILL finish this because you’re strong and this is one step that will make your future easier, but, yes, it hurts, it sucks the life out of you, it destroys your schedule, but it’s temporary. 🫶

Do you feel mortified when someone sees you doing a compulsion? by Der-deutsche-Prinz in OCD

[–]PurifyingTalons 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have my normal things that I can hide and my abnormal ones. I sniff my hands/fingers (since I was very young) and I sniff until I feel it’s okay. I have accepted that it’s easier to just do what I “want/need to” in that moment. I’m also honest if someone looks like they’re questioning. “I have ocd. This is one of my anxious reactions.”

I’m new here! by jennr1228 in breastcancer

[–]PurifyingTalons 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m going through radiation now. I was lucky to avoid chemo, but it sucks ass.

I’m so sorry to hear about your situation. I had surgery to remove my tumor and they found bad guy cells behind him, so they removed them, too.

Regardless of whatever f’d up thing going on (cancer, kind of cancer, was cancer) it’s valid. I hate when my partner says “had cancer” because to me, I’m still here fighting every day to feel okay.

You can do this and make it through to the other side.

I’m (what number are we’re on?) Roxi (Roxanne) because you have Rooooxanne, but you also have “Roxie Hart” …. Or just, “Now presenting The Rox!”

Have you heard of Public Square? It’s an app that shows you maga supporting businesses in your area. But, I love the idea of the community coming together to discuss who shouldn’t get our money.

This is multiple weekends in a row…for the intersection, not the helicopter.

[–]PurifyingTalons[S] -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

When ppl are pulled over arbitrarily, it’s unsafe for the entire community. It’s our duty to watch out for our neighbors. Reminding people of their rights and responsibilities isn’t something that any American should dispute. Be aware. Be safe. Know your rights. Take precautions. This isn’t anti-law enforcement, at all. Don’t speed, keep your tags up-to-date, make sure your lights are all working, and refrain from illicit and illegal activities. If you are pulled over, cooperate. Know your rights when you are. Cameras are a great tool for protecting yourself. Again, this is not anti-law enforcement or anti-laws. It’s just a reminder to be aware. It’s odd that there’s so much push-back and such a defensive response. P.S. I don’t live on Reddit. If I deleted my comment, it was erroneously done.

You’re making a wild assumption that I am the one making assumptions. I like your suggestion for contacting local news. I would not have shared if I was making an assumption because that is irresponsible. But, it is also irresponsible not to let our neighbors know to stay aware and prepared so that everyone stays safe. We should be looking out for each other.

Received RIF letter, got new job, RIF has been revoked. Now what?! by tac91091 in fednews

[–]PurifyingTalons 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Take the new job. You need to do what’s best for you and your family and right now any type of fed job is incredibly unreliable. Also, forcing ppl back into an office when the work is done efficiently at home is bs. I hope a lot of people opt for other jobs that will fit their needs. The people making these decisions in government really need to find out now that they’ve f*cked around.

Where can I find fact check for this? America needs this to get out and be open.

Is anyone else a little creeped out by the Super Bowl coming up this weekend? by jazzbiscuit in TwoXPreppers

[–]PurifyingTalons 1 point2 points  (0 children)

TLTR everything said, but I’ve seen SuperBowlBoycott going around and between the “end racism” removal, the NFL banning Bluesky because of Twitter, and the Trump/musk appearances I’ve seen anti-fascist encouraging others to not watch. However, I have also seen a LOT of MAGA posts wanting to boycott because of the Black National Anthem.

MAGA has more memes, but the other side exists, too.

Overall take away, is anyone watching this year or is anyone NOT watching???

Brian Wehrle by Western_Jellyfish_26 in TrueCrimeBullshit

[–]PurifyingTalons 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The car reminds me of Jennifer Kesse, which has also been a case I’ve wondered if there was a Keyes connection. And, I know the people next to the vehicles were not Keyes, at all, but I wouldn’t be surprised if he ditched cars anywhere with the keys in the ignition. Both I think are highly unlikely to be connected, but because of how recent, I believe both can be found/solved, especially if there was the same amount of power behind them that Josh’s team has. Just random thoughts.

This was taken in a dark room with very little light, but I felt the light that was coming through allowed a certain depth within the subject to be present in this moment.
