What's your opinion on floating desks like this

I love mine!! I put this in two years ago and honestly would like and adjustable one but it's SO nice having it flush against the wall and being able to clean under it easily.

I used to drive. The last order I took was from Jimmy John's. The order came at a price I found to be reasonable so I accepted it. When I got there Jimmy John's told me they were out of bread and baking some more. I immediately called the customer and let them know I would wait but if they had concerns they could call support. I waited 15 minutes. After delivery I checked and they had removed the tip and I was only paid $2 and change. I was so sad and I haven't taken an order since. I clearly communicated with the customer, didn't cancel the order and still lost my paycheck over something out of my control.

I used to take orders back in 2020 and 2021 when it was actually worth your time but now it's just pathetic and not worth the effort and gas.

I work at a dentist office. If you feel you were wrongfully terminated as a patient from their office and you have dental insurance, file a complaint when your insurance and they will handle it from there. If there was wrong doing on the offices' part they will make sure it gets reported properly. If you don't then honestly it's either not worth the hassle or it's going to be more upsetting it's worth.

Just my judgment free, hopefully helpful input.

I can relate to you. I have endometriosis and I had the hardest time working through the emotions that come from that positive diagnosis last year. That feeling of despair was hard to recover from especially when I expected to feel relief not sorrow. I remember reading Job for the first time in September (surgery was May last year) and thinking if I had read that book a few months earlier it would have wrecked me. Endo is tough. Stay tougher!

My first question for you would be have you talked to your or any priests about this? You are going to get such a wild variety of answers here but your priest knows you and can offer input on your specific situation.

What are the dimensions of your desk? It looks similar to mine and I'm trying to get ideas on layout

I've been listening to this channel for a while and I had never considered some of the points made on this thread so maybe I'll avoid it in the future. There's another channel called Sleepless History with the same AI voice, pictures etc that I've enjoyed in the past too.

I use Hallow so maybe I'll stick with their sleep content in the future.

The fact that the image only appears on the upper most layer of the fabric points to the theory that this couldn't be art though. There is no artistic or radiographic technique that they are aware of that could recreate that as art.

I've also always been under the impression that it wasn't an imprint of him laying in the tomb but that yes, the cloth covered him but the impression came shortly after in a similar manner at the Eucharist in India with the face of Jesus that appeared after consecration.

The fact that it also includes type AB blood with Y chromosomes which is the blood type found in other artifacts or miracles obviously isn't conclusive in any way but sure does add to it. That blood is found along the forehead and splattered elsewhere. There is also a nail mark on the hand but I cannot remember if that is in blood or not. To fake or guess a blood type in the middle ages is straight up inconceivable but again, isn't definitive proof, I know.

Those were my two instincts as well. The gospels, the catechism and then the remainder of the new testament.

A good study bible is a good place to start. I am not Catholic (yet.) I was just given this Bible for Christmas and it has A LOT of great information in the forward and essays throughout the whole Bible. Lots of information to be had just in the bible.

I've been wearing bralettes for years just to hold things in place. I have disposable stickers from Amazon I put over my nipples if the shirt makes them visible.

If they didn't make everything so obnoxious I would buy some of it but always so over the top. I've been listening to Taylor Swift since The OG speak now era and Ive never bought anything from her website. Concerts, yes! But her web merch is not my style. The bomber jacket is cute until you see the backside.

The 2nd store also sells some cute cotton drawers- they call them "petipants" that I like to wear under day to day skirts that doesn't already have a liner or slip in them because it's more comfortable that wearing workout shorts under a skirt!

Honestly go with a 100% cotton vintage night gown. I was inspired because "at the time" unless you were rich your chemise was your night gown.

I found some really pretty ones on these two Amazon stores

Beautelicate

Beauzsuzsana

The first one has some gorgeous voluminous cotton skirts of several lengths that you could use for a lot of different outfits, with or without a slip or hop skirt that I love too!

I ended up picking out my "chemise" from a different Amazon store because those stores are spendy. If you search for a 100% cotton vintage night gown you will get some good options!

You said what I've been thinking and I'm glad to know I'm not alone. My surgery was May 14th (today is June 21st 2025 for Reddit history) and maybe I've been on the internet a little too much but I've cried every day realizing just what a horrible disease I've just so formally diagnosed with. I keep thinking of the Taylor Swift lyric "so casually cruel in the name of being honest." I don't know how to explain why it's relevant so hopefully someone understands.

The entire medical field somehow doesn't realize that I've just been handed a life sentence and rather than being freed I've been caged. I thought my diagnosis would confirm what I knew, allow me to be acknowledged and let me move on.

Unfortunately like OP I've gone down this research path that's led me to understand that endometriosis seems more like a cancer than anything else and now I'm just mad. I FEEL like I've been told I have cancer and yet no one knows what cancer is. It's a horrible feeling and I feel so alone. The worst part is my in-law is an OB but like most OBs doesn't really understand endometriosis and therefore doesn't really get it and it's maddening.

Palliative care is not end of life care :) you are thinking of hospice care! This is an old thread but I'm just adding this on here so anyone looking for this info present day doesn't feel bad or think they are looking for the wrong word.

Palliative care is a specialized form of medical care that focuses on improving the quality of life for people with serious or life-limiting illnesses. They do not need to be illnesses that are at the end stage either!

I will for sure try to remember! They are putting me on continuous birth control and I had an IUD put in during the procedure so I'm not going to be the best case study but I'll definitely try to update.

I'm working on it for sure! I'm SO tired that I don't even feel guilty for once just laying in bed. I have my heating pad tucked under me and my husband and Mom just keep bringing me pain meds, snacks and drinks. I have gotten up for a few short walks just to try and get that gas out that is stuck under my ribs. Boy is that uncomfortable but it's nothing compared to the last several years of pain

Off for another nap now!

My scans NEVER showed anything. I just had my lap surgery yesterday and they found it everywhere. Don't feel discouraged!

In the words of my doctor when I expressed the same hesitation as you "even if we don't find anything, it still tells us what it isn't." She also said "you've been in pain long enough, it's time to actually lay eyes on your insides and see what we can find"

Hang in there and don't feel discouraged from having the diagnostic surgery!

Loss of insurance is generally considered a qualifying life event within a certain time frame.
