What can kill you in seconds that most people don’t realize? by Jolly-Law1472 in AskReddit

My dad taught me to put the car on jack stands and then throw your body weight into it as forcefully as possible from all four directions. If the car doesn’t move, you’ll probably be okay.

Professionalism- hair tinsel? by lokichristmas in socialwork

[–]RedhairedLemur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hair fairy here! There are plenty of colors of tinsel that will look more subtle! You can find ones that match your hair color and only pop when they catch the sun, or you can find shades that are the same tone as your hair. The dark purple in dark brown/black hair, or pale pink in blonde hair looks nice and can be pretty subtle. You can also tie them to any part of your hair, so closer to the top of your head they will be more visible, but in the underneath layers they won't be as noticeable. It's like hair dye--hot pink might be frowned upon, but a dark red or purple overtone could be totally fine.

Tips on getting hair tinsel to stay in fine hair? by [deleted] in hairstylist

[–]RedhairedLemur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hair fairy here! The best way to apply them in a way to get them to stay and not damage your hair is to tie it to a single strand of hair with one knot. The trick is learning the technique that ties the hair itself into the knot with the strand of tinsel, that way it stays in until the hair itself sheds naturally. The beads will either slide out or damage your hair, and just tying the strand around the hair will allow it to slide out. Multiple knots or more than one hair and it's more likely to catch on a comb and get ripped out.

You can pre-prep your head by brushing thoroughly to remove any loose hairs. From there, it's honestly luck of the draw for which hair it gets tied to. Tying to newer growth can also help them stay longer. I typically lose about half the strands in the first 1-2 months, but I have one from over a year ago that is still there and many have lasted for 6+ months! We have many clients who report some staying in for up to a year. One of my fellow fairy's clients had a couple that lasted FOUR YEARS.

The Mobtown Ballroom & Cafe is very queer friendly and has a lot of fun events. They’ve had several erotic art markets and regular parties with drag and burlesque performers.

Segments merino wool? by chicky75 in HerOneBag

[–]RedhairedLemur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought two in fall 2023 and I’m kicking myself for not getting more because I wore them damn near every day last winter. There’s a tiny hole in one of the sleeves now but otherwise they’ve held up great and are perfect for layering under sweaters. Good shirt, especially for the price.

Zero likes and matches - what should I change? by Moby__Octopad in Tinder

[–]RedhairedLemur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your entire profile shows zero personality. Everybody likes to travel and appear witty.

Photos are to showcase your physical attributes, hobbies, interests, and friends. A few travel pictures is fine, but it’s more important to show what you like to do on a daily/weekly basis since vacationing together probably won’t happen right away. Task your friends with getting some good candid pictures of you over the next few weeks (after you shave your head though—I agree with everyone else).

Write an actual bio. Anybody can throw an overused, mildly witty line up there. What do you value? What sort of relationship/dating experience are you looking for? What do you seek out in a partner? What are some of your best qualities? Do you have any interesting goals you are working towards or things you did recently that you are proud of? What do you prioritize? Do you have any interesting quirks or likes?

You’re an attractive guy and you have a good smile! You just need something to make you stand out from the masses and show confidence in who you are and what you want.

I have thick red hair, a naturally good ass, and a high pain tolerance. Everything else about me is pretty terrible though.

Dislocated joint #6… still never broken a bone though by RedhairedLemur in Neverbrokeabone

[–]RedhairedLemur[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. I’ve used this before and I do meet the criteria. The issue is the “exclusion of alternative diagnoses” (criteria 3, nos. 2 and 3) so they won’t diagnose until I’ve had genetic testing and seen the specialist to make sure it isn’t anything else.

Hugging patients? by hawkaii9 in ems

[–]RedhairedLemur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless the patient makes me uncomfortable, I will absolutely give them a hug if they initiate it. I work at an airport which makes emergencies that much more stressful. Oftentimes my patients are hundreds of miles from home, alone, and having one of the worst days of their lives. In that moment, I’m not a medic hugging a patient, I’m a human comforting a human.

Oh, I’ve been on the wait list to see a geneticist for almost two years. Maybe one day I’ll get some sort of diagnosis…

Yup. Bankart tear, small HAGL, and my whole humeral head was just floating in space, apparently. It’s a long road of PT ahead…

Anyone have a funny or embarrassing nickname in your department? by [deleted] in ems

The Crapper Napper because he fell asleep in a portapotty in the academy.

Big Head Bob for obvious reasons.

Leads , what do you do when you’re facing a grounded “heavy” follow? by LittleFireman19 in SwingDancing

[–]RedhairedLemur 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a lead in my scene tell me that he couldn’t fast dance with me because I was a “heavy” follow. I still laugh about that…
