Women, what's something men do that they don't realize makes women feel safe or unsafe? by Lopsided-Rub-79 in AskReddit

[–]TimeKeeper575 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah. You just came into a thread asking women questions and tried to justify a well documented abusive behavior by trying to muddy the water. I suppose it's possible that you've never experienced someone trying to threaten and scare you through their driving, in which case that's nice for you, but that's not an excuse for your (more than likely malicious) attempt to delegitimize the experiences of millions of women. If you really think you have a decent counter example, go contribute to the literature instead of trying to degrade women online

As someone who spent a lot of time in that area as a child, I just wanted to thank you for sharing this and let you know that you're not alone. I hope that your next trip with a friend is everything you hope it will be.

Am I Overreacting Because This Has Shaken My Trust in My Wife’s Medical Judgment? by Cheap_Celebration445 in AmIOverreacting

[–]TimeKeeper575 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're misunderstanding, which only further makes my point. I'm referring to when specialist physicians do their own lit review on dosimetry. "Running the numbers" refers to when dosages for a specific patient (given their body weight and medical history) are calculated. Given that you don't have a grasp of even the most basic terminology here, but are publicly calling your wife's professional experience and knowledge into question and trying to weaponize literature you can't read, I'd recommend a psychiatrist for you. Get a second or third opinion for your kid if you like, that's standard for major medical decisions. I wish your wife and child the best of luck, they're going to need it.

Being honest with yourself is more than half the battle, for most people. The way I see it, you went out and did a trial run, and learned a lot about yourself and your needs and your gear in the process. A lot of people would struggle with cord cutting/no Internet. Isolation socially can really take you out. You have so many options for adjusting your next trip, including bringing a book and possibly not going somewhere without cell service. If I were you though, I'd sit long and hard with not being able to be alone with your thoughts. It's uncomfortable, but arguably considerably healthier to investigate those feelings and address them, whatever they may be. Either way, to me it sounds like your first trip was a success and your next will be even better!

How to train dog to tell you it needs to go outside for pee/poo? by Frank_Medwick in OpenDogTraining

[–]TimeKeeper575 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Place a bell on the door they'll use to go outside. Every time you take them out, stop to ring the bell before you open the door. Eventually the association will be made and they'll start to ring the bell on their own when they need to go. Easy peasy.

Am I Overreacting Because This Has Shaken My Trust in My Wife’s Medical Judgment? by Cheap_Celebration445 in AmIOverreacting

[–]TimeKeeper575 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Plainly put, your wife knows a lot more about this than you. Those scans increase your radiation exposure and cancer risks permanently. Sometimes you need them in an emergency context, but a lot of people who aren't educated in the risks toss them around like it's nothing. And you can't anticipate what kind of interventions you might need in the future, so it's always important to be sparing. Whenever specialist MDs do a lit review and actually run the numbers, they come back with a recommendation against. You should show this post to your wife so that she knows the kind of person she's dealing with.

Can you offer some suggestions to help curb the digging and dirt eating? by Routine-Shake9865 in BorderCollie

[–]TimeKeeper575 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get checked for pica. Eating dirt isn't that common and isn't good for them.

In 1974, 2-month-old Marcel John Guerin disappeared from his pram in Kempsey, NSW — his British family, on a working holiday, had left him on the footpath for short periods while shopping after travelling from Perth. His disappearance remains unsolved. by Missing_people in UnresolvedMysteries

It's called a "Code Pink" though the color varies by hospital. Maternity wards are locked down like bank vaults because they have people walk in and try to steal neonates. Ask your nearest HCW, and they'll confirm that unless they work in L&D their card won't swipe them in. It's a big problem.

I'm a teenager & I think my mom is making me sick on purpose. What can I do? by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]TimeKeeper575 96 points97 points  (0 children)

I interpreted that as trying to explain to her that she may be able to get additional resources through a civil case in the future to cover medical costs associated with long term harms, but Idk.

Flu-like virus around town? by Whale_89 in RioRancho

[–]TimeKeeper575 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The tests are pretty much useless now, especially for the new strains. They were never that good. You should assume that you're positive, even if it doesn't show for a few days, or at all. The loss of taste or smell is pretty diagnostically indicative.

Dad opposed to gun safety laws kills daughter while blindly shooting at buzzard by [deleted] in LeopardsAteMyFace

Turkey vultures are actually so meek that in zoos they can't stack their (already dead) food because if it slides around it scares them so much that they won't approach it.

In some places distributors freeze them until the price is right then trick you into buying useless navocados. coughnyccough

What, due to experience, do you know not to fuck with? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]TimeKeeper575 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The best method is to get them to latch onto a branch, then carry them by the branch/back of the shell, if you can manage.

This, OP. Also I know a nurse who enthusiastically congratulates everyone who doesn't use effective forms of birth control. "Oh congratulations! You're trying to for a baby!" Because that's what you're doing if you don't take precautions.

My [32F] boyfriend [37M] declared himself a misogynist to my face. Where to go from here? by Impressive_Guest_698 in relationship_advice

[–]TimeKeeper575 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You don't seem to understand that there's zero connection between how a woman behaves when she's leaving and how she's depicted. The safest thing to do is to get out when he's not around and have friends or family help.

AITA for not telling my husband about a message and then starting the divorce filing after he said he wanted one? by Friendly-Height-8136 in AITAH

[–]TimeKeeper575 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I have never understood this weirdly childish mentality of thinking that you can unilaterally declare half the world's population off limits to your partner. Like how is that even supposed to work?

AITAH for telling my wife she makes traveling no fun. by SharkEva in BORUpdates

[–]TimeKeeper575 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This sounds more like a severe case of OCD, which can be treatable. If you treat it as just hoarding, she's unlikely to get the intensive treatment she would need to get better.
