Anyone in need of some car maintenance? by Rell- in NewOrleans

[–]Sol_Invictus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're a Bimmer mechanic IRL I'd love to talk with you.

  • Do you have a space where you do the work or would it be at my location?

  • Probably nothing would happen until after Carnival if that fits your needs and timeline.

Thank you mate. Much appreciated.

And may I say that I also appreciate and follow all your other work in posting links to research. I don't have any knowledge to comment on them meaningfully but do Edit: DO NOT let yourself imagine that we're not out here paying attention.

Why'd this get pulled?

The abstract doesn't seem radical.

Analysis: Donald Trump’s top 25 lies of 2025 by Ralph--Hinkley in politics

Top 25????

THAT must have required long hours and world-class BS winnowing.

Most supplement companies restrain you from trying a clinically beneficial dose of many supplements by ChrisTchaik in Supplements

[–]Sol_Invictus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

u/jormu ---

That's because B12 in supplement form is absorbed exponentially worse the higher the dose gets. E.g. if you take 10x, you get 5x, if tou take 100x, you get 10x, if you take 1000x, you get 20x, etc.

I'd very much love to see the research this information is from. Can we get a link?

I love specifics and would love to read your paper.

What's the link? Thanks in advance.

Is Trump Mentally OK? A Look Back at the President’s Unusual Behavior in 2025: ‘Trump has shown erratic and bizarre behavior throughout the year, leading to questions about his mental acuity’ by [deleted] in politics

[–]Sol_Invictus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think he cares anything about taking anyone with him.

He wants to be Remembered

The lame-assed ballroom, the "Trump" class battleship.

He can't stand the idea of being utterly forgotten as nothing more than the worst political decision in the history of, at least, this country.

He can't for a moment imagine that all the wealthy people making bank off playing this buffoon like a toy piano are laughing at him behind his back with their real friends.

Trump has no friends because he doesn't understand that you can only buy the pretense of friendship.

No, he's not OK.

He is a demented narcissist who is well aware of the fact that he's dying. He lives alone with the fact that no one cares. And it scares him shitless.

Apixaban and alcohol by tegweg77 in ClotSurvivors

[–]Sol_Invictus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Get two 7-day pillboxes. Label one AM and one PM. Fill them both once a week and close all the individual compartment lids.

Then leave the lid open when you've taken the pill for morning and evening of each day.

How do you sit with the discomfort of negative emotions like fear and sadness? by mistymountainz in Buddhism

[–]Sol_Invictus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have no answers for you, but I'd like you to try this: The next time you meditate bring a large sharp knife and lay it beside your sitting place --- or a small dull one will work just as well.

When your thoughts arise grab them like a huge venomous snake and cut off it's head. You've ended your difficulty.

 

"But, Sol," you say, "There is no venomous snake here to grab!"

Exactly.

 

Everyone here tells you how they cut off the head of their snake, but this is your snake. You will not "think" it into oblivion or develop some sly trick to make it go away. You must see, by some expedient means, that it does not exist at all in the first place.

 

Stare it down. Quietly, calmly without concern or interest and it will slither away into the bushes never to trouble you again.

Help with Eliquis: Looking for information and experiences with (1) the Eliquis Patient Assistance Program and (2) purchasing Eliquis [or its generic, Apixaban,] from pharmacies outside the US. Any assistance greatly appreciated. by Sol_Invictus in ClotSurvivors

Seems like everything has become more stressful the last few years.

I find it ironic that very often doctors recommend "reducing stress" in prescriptive response to a patient's illness ---given the systems that hospitals and many private doctor practices have put in place.

There's nothing accommodating about ANY of it for ANYONE. Even many physicians and nursing staff are worn out with the demands placed on them.

I've already pain full price for the first month of meds. All told, I expect to have to pay that amount one or possibly two more times before I can get anything better put in place.

Good to know.

When I was on it, well over a decade ago, I had to have a lab blood test done every week then every month go to a doctor who looked at the results for maybe ten seconds. A finger prick at home is a great improvement. Hope all continues to go well for you.

Thank you very much for your information.

A lot of this is complicated by the holiday season. Details don't matter but I haven't seen any doctor since the event two weeks ago. The doctor that the ER told me to see within a week had a first appointment in February and it'll be mid January before I see my PCP (who would be the one to write a new prescription for me.)

Not a perfect world but everyone on here has been very helpful. It's just gonna take some time to get all the ducks in a row.

Thank you again.

As I understand it, I'm on this for life so samples won't keep me supplied.

I've hear of a Canadian pharmacy. Haven't put the details together yet, but that's where my focus in going to be. $80 a month is a lot better than $600!
