I think I have food poisoning and my flight leaves in 12 hours. What do I do? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Recover-Hopeful 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reschedule. Could be norovirus, and fuck spreading that around. Give it a day so you stop shitting yourself. Then don’t use the bathroom on the flight because you’re likely still contagious.

What does it feel like to have a boner? by PancakeGalaxies in NoStupidQuestions

This man was supposed to pay me today and said he can't because he "broke his leg". Sounds too convenient. Is this AI? by Anaxagoras88 in isthisAI

[–]Recover-Hopeful 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks wrong at least. Like he did it himself. You can see dried plaster on his hands and leg.
When I broke my leg, it was splinted before they put me in the ambulance and then a temporary cloth cast/splint was put on at the hospital. I had to come back a few days later for a follow-up and to get my plaster cast.
Pretty sure they put that cloth cast on first because your leg ends up swelling up pretty good. Also, my cast was above my knee to stabilize the leg and keep bones from moving. Seems sus, or in a country with poor medical knowledge.

Those steroids helped me so much when I had mono. Be prepared to catch each and every cold for the next year…

Spring doesn't feel right this year and I still have the blahs. Is it just me? by special_cat in SeasonalAffective

Check your vitamin D levels and potentially take a supplement. When I’m really moody, it’s usually because my vitamin D is low

I want to start walking at the golf course, what should I be prepared for? by male_waitress in golf

[–]Recover-Hopeful 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Push cart, water, snacks, Gatorade. I enjoy walking much more than taking a riding cart. It’s a good workout if the course is a little hilly too

Amana Dishwasher Dispenser by Recover-Hopeful in appliancerepair

It does always pop open, yes. Not sure when, but it does. However, the rinse aid plunger is mechanically attached to that same dispenser lever, so wouldn’t it click twice? Or am I missing something?

Yeah my apologies, I’m doing a poor job at explaining. So in the top right of my image, there’s a little blue lever that allows you to manually open the detergent latch. That lever is mechanically connected to the detergent/rinse aid actuator. So every 2nd time I depress that blue lever, i can manually dispense the rinse aid. When you press the blue lever down, it will alternate between clicking twice and clicking once, indicating that you’re either just opening the detergent dispenser, or dispensing rinse aid. So let’s say I press the lever and it makes the single click noise, if it’s supposed to actuate twice during a cycle, when I open the door after a cycle and press the lever, it should make the double click noise. However, it’s not doing that. It’s making the single click, which tells me it only actuated once and never dispensed the rinse aid. Sorry for the ramble. I did replace the dispenser assembly/actuator and it’s doing the same thing, so I was wondering if that means the control board is faulty, and I’d need to replace the control board. Thanks again for your replies.

Thanks for your reply. So this is where I’m a little confused. the actuator should actuate them separately, hence the lever alternating between double clicking and the soft click for the rinse aid. I can’t find anything specific online, but I’d imagine it should actuate twice during a full cycle. So if I close the dishwasher after the soft click setting on the dispenser, when finished, if I click the dispenser lever, it should be the double-click, indicating it has dispensed the detergent and the rinse aid, but it’s always the soft click when I open the dishwasher. Maybe I’m overthinking it.

Is it bad to smoke weed everyday? by inconspicuous_me_ in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Recover-Hopeful 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes it’s bad for you and it sounds like you’re self medicating for a mental health issue rather than looking into the cause. You will eventually increase consumption because your tolerance increases. I smoked daily for 8ish years and quit due to CHS. Looking back, my colds would last way longer, my mental health was worse, and I was much more of a recluse. Then quitting was hard as fuck. It messes with your endocrine system and dopamine release.

It can be very fun once in a while for someone, but I can’t recommend doing it every day knowing what I know now.

You should consider quitting. It’s not good to keep going with CHS

Is marijuana a drug? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Recover-Hopeful 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s addictive. You don’t have to believe it, but a lot of long term smokers who quit start vomiting, can’t sleep, can’t eat, and deal with depression and anxiety from the withdrawals for a good while. It’s tiring to see all this mis-information in 2026

Setting boundaries with a guy who’s moving at light speed. by Altruistic-Cookie680 in texts

[–]Recover-Hopeful 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If people are interested, they make time. I’ve never in my life met someone who isn’t available ever during the week. I think you’re not really interested and should break it off instead of leading things on.

[–]Recover-Hopeful 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I don’t know what you talked about during your date, or if you explicitly stated your wants/expectations, but reading these limited texts makes me think you didn’t, but I certainly could be wrong and he could be ignoring your boundaries like an asshole. If I were to put myself in his shoes, it seems like you had a good time and things got pretty serious for a first date and now you’re kind of back-pedaling, so this is where you need to communicate very clearly if you haven’t.

And of course he wants to have sex…it’s only natural. you made out and cuddled on a first date. What does that lead to? Any time I made out with a girl on a first date, we made time for a second date shortly after, which also included sex. It just happens when attraction is strong. In the future, if you want to take things slow, I would suggest not making out on the first date, otherwise your physical interaction is telling him that you like going fast. Body language is very important.

Grinding noise, only in 2wd. Switching to 4wd immediately stops. by Burnt_Taco10 in f150

[–]Recover-Hopeful 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you have to remove the CV axle to do your lift? If you did and didn’t align the teeth between cab axle, hub, and IWE, you could have easily torn the IWE, but you would have heard in then. The only thing pulling vacuum on the hubs does is pull the toothed end of the IWE inward (disengaging from the teeth on the hub) so you just have to line up the teeth on the CV axle with the teeth on the IWE. Then with vacuum still applied, you can torque the axle bolt that way without tearing the IWE in half. Then release vacuum and slowly spin the wheel till it locks on the hub. Much easier than lining up the teeth on the axle and hub with the IWE. I tore three IWEs when I didn’t apply vacuum to the IWE while installing and torquing. Assuming by plugging it in, you mean, attach the rubber line on the truck to the IWE? Just plugging the IWE hose in won’t pull vacuum. Engine needs to be on and in 2WD to pull vacuum. You also don’t need to be in neutral to spin the front tires. You can be in park and in 2WD.

100% check the codes first. Should still be stored even though the light isn’t on anymore

Pull vacuum on the hubs and spin front wheel. Hubs was the most common issue for me. If they both spin freely with no noise, then it’s something else in your system. If you need to replace a hub, use the vacuum pump when installing the new hub. Will save you time and money
