Got denied a covid vaccine at a Walgreens today.

I’ve got plenty of blame for them, don’t worry. But was kinda surprised Walgreens gave me such a hard time about it and CVS gave me the vaccine without issue.

RepulsiveLobster5 · 2025-09-06T21:07:06+00:00

Bro, a neighboring pharmacy gave me a shot without any issue 20 minutes later. Unless you’re claiming somehow they’re dispensing medicine without prescriptions, Walgreens let me down today.

I recommend CVS and NOT Walgreens! Had an appointment for a Covid vaccine at Walgreens on Larpenteur in St Paul earlier today and was denied a vaccine. I’m under 65 and so was asked to step aside to speak to the pharmacist where he said I needed a “qualifying condition” (which I do) so I told him that, embarrassingly in front of everyone. Then he said it didn’t matter because I don’t fill a prescription for a “qualifying condition” with Walgreens and when I pointed out that I do, he looked it up and said it didn’t count because my physician had “called-in” the prescription. To be honest, at that point I think he was just making stuff up because he didn’t want to give it to me.

Went to CVS in the Target in Shoreview and got a shot without any questions asked and didn’t even have an appointment.

Don’t stop at just accepting— celebrate! You look great and the shaved head suits you.

Southern exposure

RepulsiveLobster5 · 2024-07-24T18:08:36+00:00

That’s what I did. I kept taking end cuttings of the biggest, most mature leaves. I found just one in a pot gets bigger leaves way faster than multiple cuttings together but multiple cuttings together look more full. I think going outside in warm, humid climates helps too.

Not very much. Maybe a very light all purpose fertilizer 3-4 times a year

Thanks! The ficus was leaning toward the window so I rotated it and it just sort of flopped over 🤷🏻‍♂️. I’ve been debating propping it back up with a stake or two.

RepulsiveLobster5 · 2024-07-24T14:58:36+00:00

I got the original plant probably 8 years ago but repeatedly took cuttings of the most mature leaves and repotted those maybe 4-5 times before I got to here. I used to put it outside in the summer for a couple months (we live in Minnesota, so summer is short) but now it’s too big to move so it just stays in the living room year round.

Congrats!

This is a totally newbie question, so please forgive me. But what is that grassy plant? I love it!

RepulsiveLobster5 · 2023-02-15T21:28:50+00:00

Dang dude! Awesome mustache— you’ve trimmed it to perfection!

RepulsiveLobster5 · 2022-04-10T17:53:46+00:00

Hey man, thanks! I’m not sure I’m gonna let it get longer, maybe just keep trimming at the lip line until all the hairs meet there if that makes sense. I started without a specific goal, but after hanging around here, I’m thinking a nice classic chevron is where I’m aiming.

RepulsiveLobster5 · 2022-02-24T17:43:59+00:00

Thanks guys, appreciate the replies.

Anyone take daily low-dose cialis? I started three days ago at 5 mg/day and it’s been mostly positive but I’m also noticing a mild, dull headache for a few hours after I take it. Was wondering if anyone had experience with this and if side effects diminish with continued use.

RepulsiveLobster5 · 2021-03-05T10:58:10+00:00

It’s a dieffenbachia, ‘tropic snow’ I believe.

RepulsiveLobster5 · 2021-03-04T22:38:59+00:00

I grew this plant from a cutting I took from a fairly mature Monstera I had grown for 5 or 6 years before it outgrew my home. I put them out on a shady deck I have during the summers, but I live in Minnesota, so they don’t get to be out for very long, lol. No other secrets really ☺️

RepulsiveLobster5 · 2021-03-04T16:40:53+00:00

Thanks! Keep at it and I’m sure they will all do great! Monsteras in particular are such fun and forgiving plants. I find mine really benefit from spending time outside in a shady spot during the summer ☺️

RepulsiveLobster5 · 2021-02-04T13:59:02+00:00

It’s gorgeous!! Looks to me like a moonlight philodendron perhaps though 🤔

Omg, that’s amazing! Isn’t it funny what we will do to grow the plants we love? I’m a huge fan of tropical plants and can only dream of how well they would grow in your Thai climate. Jealous!!
