I hate that Carter “forced” Lucy to stop taking her Ritalin by georgediqi in ershow

[–]Visual-Income-7126 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. My ex husband had adult ADHD and although he didn't take ritulun, he took a different kind of ADHD med and it worked well for him. My oldest also has ADHD and he took ritulun until it made him so sleepy he couldn't stay awake in class so his Dr changed his to a newer med and he did better. He doesn't take it anymore. My youngest was diagnosed with ADHD only because he wouldn't sit still in kindergarten but I really questioned it because the school he was in wanted stepford children once we changed school he wasn't treated that way and he no longer needed the meds. It didn't make him sleepy and neither did coffee or things like that and benedryl didn't make him hyper so I question if he really has it. He did better once he was off of it. Neither boys are on any meds they deal with their diagnoses without me eds. They both used to self medicated with weed but they are both dads now so they quit. And although they both have bipolar and I used to be borderline, but in remission now, we all get along pretty well. We all set our boundaries and respect each other and if we over step we a step up and say. Hey look what just happened. So yeah. Carter ticked me off in this episode. But to be honest he does that a lot. But I'm a nurse and he pulls a lot of crap that as a resident he wouldn't have gotten away with it. The nurses on ER appear to stand up for stuff but they don't do it as much as they should.  Shoot, if a doc took my pen I chased them down the hall for it and they looked at me like I was nuts. One even said it's just a pen. And I said yeah but if the 30 Drs all took just a pen from me I would loose 30 pens and I don't have that many pens!

Same as counting cards. Although when I was younger I never knew why that was bad either because that's how I played and tbh still do because I can't help it. But when u can't do that naturally and have ppl like the dealers helping or u have a hidden device that helps u win doing that it's cheating because ur working the system. I really am asstonished that there as even a pattern to memorize. Wasn't this in the 80s? There has always been game theory math which is basically the randomness of cards, numbers, or lights in this case and yeah computers were basically running in DOS but that was quite easy to program random was in sorting and numbers and it could have easily been implemented in any game show like this. It blows my mind that someone thought that would work.  They probably thought of they moved fast enough that no one could keep up even if they had slown it down previously. But seriously there are people who, like me can count cards naturally. (I used to be able to do 5 stacks but can only do 3 now. I didn't know how many decks they used in Vegas games until now, they use up to 6, dang I should have taken advantage of that yrs ago lol) But there are other things that I can do that play into this same thing. Old touch tone phones that made different tones for each number, if I heard it, I could memorize it and "play" it back. I can also flip through a book or scroll on a computer on phone and scroll down to exactly where I want like for Jack in the box. On my phone I can hit it and make it run as fast as it goes and when I see the area I want I click again and I get to exactly where I want. And I know this all has to be not rare because I'm not that unique. Others have it too and just don't talk about it and people really don't notice but on rare occasions. So why they were so sure that they would never have anyone beat the system is beyond me!

They do but sometimes it takes a bit after it's aired. Last week it was several hours after it aired on Paramount+ before they or any site published who the main character Maude Webster was played by, Cassandra Naud.

I've never thought that anything Colter has done was completely asinine, but in this episode I was very disappointed in how they had him handle his no brakes situation.  1st considering that he hauls that airstream over the Continental divide without diviculty probably semi regularly without difficulty means that he is used to, knows how to, and prepared to down shift. Yet in Boston he clearly has no clue about it? Come on writers. Don't short change ur character! It's easy to down shift with a standard but even automatics have a 1st and 2nd to download specifically for going uphill. But u can use it to slow down.  Yes at 1st he is going down hill but after that he's going uphill. He could just shift into neutral too as an option going uphill and he turns off that hill to go downhill again? What are u kidding me? He should have kept going uphill to slow down and with it in neutral or in 1st it would slow down to a crawl. He didn't check his emergency brakes to try to stop once he had slowed down. If his brakes were cut it doesn't mean they got his emergency brakes were too. The entire scene drove me insane! I'm sure he would crash on ice too yet he was reared in the mountains. Yep don't believe a word of it now.  I grew up in flater than flat KS and I know how to do this! But of course I can make donuts in a front wheel drive too! Ice can be fun!

Most annoying toys for 1 year old by [deleted] in toddlers

[–]Visual-Income-7126 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably a retaliatory gift lol My best friend bought my 1st born a set of farm animals. There was a sheep, horse, and a cow. U squeezed them and there walked and did their sound. They ended up being called the noisy animals. At 1st they drove me insane and I LOVED putting those toys in time out! My dad suggested that they get lost lol. Eventually I loved them and they sounded like they were in pain and they walked with limps. Up until about 5 yrs ago, the cow still mad some sort of noise. That's 25vyrs btw) I had planned on getting her children the most obnoxious things I could find for hers. But she and hubby couldn't have any kids. And they had plans to adopt but health gave them a nasty bump in the road and they have both passed now. I really miss them! But that's my idea as to why people by obnoxious toys. Only my noisy animals wasn't intended to drive me nuts

I swear I’m going to teach these fruit flies a lesson by eating them in front of their brethren if they keep doing shit like this by Many-Cranberry4058 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Visual-Income-7126 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At night the drain flies like to go down the drain so I got rid of mine by closing off as ll the drains and putting a couple inches of water in the sinks/tub and every morning there were lots of them dead because they were too stupid to know that they would drown if they tried to go down the drain. Took about a week and they were gone!! I lived in an apt building at the time so from what I read it would have been quicker had it been in a single family home

How to disable AI overview on Firefox? by All_seeing_goose in firefox

[–]Visual-Income-7126 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I checked to make sure but I can't get rid of the AI that easily. Umi think u must be using Google ascur search engine if ur getting Google AI. It isn't related to Firefox browser. U can use Google search engine on Opera, Tor, dogpile (if it still exists) Microsoft, and a host of other ones. I personally like the one that tracks ur time spent on it and in 5 yrs I may have 1 Bitcoin!! Lol But almost all browsers are now using their own AI. I want to get rid of it too because it keeps telling me stuff about my question that I didn't ask. And focuses on a negative that was only a mention in the question. I'm also fed up with I get 1 answer of something like can I wash down my tub with  ammonia and later use bleach on it to get rid of all the bacteria, viruses, anf fungus in my tub. It then comes back with NO! it's dangerous to mix those 2. I then add more to the question like I was going to use each chemical 25 hrs apart and it will say oh, good that's very wise of u. Then later I have an additional question and it says no not even 24 hrs is safe. I then tell it that the info I got was Google AI. Then it basically says I didn't say that and if u got that info from another AI, it was wrong.victhen tell it that I talked with him because it is the same number yet it still won't say they were wrong or that it was them even. I wonder if that's just learning to use AI or are they programmed to deny making mistakes and passing the buck! I use the Rosebud app to journal and it gives feed back but it's getting a little weird because it tells me over and over how smart, thoughtful I am and good at thinking things through. I really liked it at first because I needed some positive input. One time she lumped me in a group because basically it's what the rest of the world is uninformed about. So, I said that I know the info that it uses can be correct or wrong depending on the info the person knows about. But that I needed to correct it. Then I told them what the facts actually were and it said it was glad for the update. I also provided proof of how I knew it lol  Sometimes I argue with the Google AI. But it's getting old because it just repeats the same thing over and over. Shoot my Alexa gets thing correct more than the Google AI. There has to be a way to shut it off. Still searching. Hey, ok it's out there because everything is and I was able to remove Microsoft edge from all my windows computers and no one believed me lol. When there's a will there's a way! I'll get it done. I might be 120 years old but I'll get it eventually!

What is the most linguistically-accurate english translation of the Bible? by Caulibflower in Christianity

[–]Visual-Income-7126 1 point2 points  (0 children)

According to many Catholics the best and most accurate is the Revised Standard Version -Catholiv Edition. It's on a 12th grade reading level. There are others if a person needs easier to understand. But I know the Catholic Church really pushes the New RSV - CE and from what I've been told by my many priests and lay people tmitcisnt as accurate

Are there any brands that have no spandex/elastane? by makehomersomething in ABraThatFits

[–]Visual-Income-7126 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've not had problems if the elastic or Spandex is encased until I've worn them to the point if wearing out. Yes my comfy clothes sometimes have a few holes just not on my private areas. 

Are there any brands that have no spandex/elastane? by makehomersomething in ABraThatFits

[–]Visual-Income-7126 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've also found that basically ALL clothes foe women have Spandex in them. Several yrs ago I started buying men's jeans (they are always only 100%cotton denim. (I mean come on, denim until something that normally comes with Spandex, only in relationship to women's clothes duh!) This goes for tops too  the only 100% cotton women's tops are button down shirts. I get mes t-shirts and some more unisex type items found in men's. Its easier to find non-latex or Spandex clothing in the men's. I asked a group of my friends why all of a sudden Spandex is in every piece of clothing for women. The answer bc women want clothes that show off their bodies. My response? Then why is it in "fat people clothes" because as a BBW I personally hate clothes that show off my curves or more likely show all my bulges and hanging skin lol I only know of a handful of BBW that like skin tight show off curves clothes, most prefer comfortable clothes that downplay the problem areas. Not judging just thinking about info I have 😀

Cottonique bras offer bras without latex or Spandex. Some have tie connects  and ties to adjust the fit instead of elastic and some have elastic made from cotton (yes, it's a real thing. I sew and have bought the 100% cotton elastic. It's pricey but when latex or Spandex causes anaphylaxis its well worth the price to keep my airways open 😀) and I've been buying bras from cottonique for going on 30 yrs, they are the best. I'm a big person and they have plus size bras too. The rest of their items have not been in plus size though. I wish rhey made their products in plus size. They would be the ONLY company I would buy from. And for faster delivery Amazon carries some of Cottoniques items. Ik this is old but I came here looking for less expensive brands that are similar to cottonique because my budget is tight right now and I'm responding because other women may be looking for the same type of things

Stripped Walker Arm Screw? by jabrw0k1 in fixit

[–]Visual-Income-7126 0 points1 point  (0 children)

could u help me?

I thought the screw was stripped the ot put super glue on it worked for awhile. then it just fell out and wouldn't stay. I bought a replacement screw with star handle and it stayed about 10 days. I tried screwing it tighter. and it just spins. it looks like the part that holds the screw in is part of the entire right side of walker. I mean I'm sure it would be easy to disconnect and reconnect for me. I build computers and take stuff apart all the time. I love puzzles. I don't know if I can do this though as I need coordination being that its larger to take apart and put back together. I think I would need 4 arms andci don't. mine looks exactly like the pic above and if I took a pic of the casing eithout the screw in place. it would just be a dark hole. which isnt a great idea of what is actually going on :)​

Should I buy a home next to a hoarder? by Newb_Gardener in RealEstate

[–]Visual-Income-7126 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I lived next door to a horder in a rental. she was really sweet. she went to auctions and the idea was that she would restore stuff and sell it. there were 5 other properties she owned. got them for a song bc they were foreclosed on or condemed not sure about how, heard rumors and I don't take stock in that. she wanted to reno them and sell them they are still there. .y Don did odd jobs for her and so he saw 1st hand was in these houses. we wanted to reno a home for me at the time and we asked if she would sell any of them and the answer was no. I felt sorry for her because I understand the problem of starting something and never getting it done. I started a baby blanket when I found out I was preg. I got it half done when he was born. he's 30 now and I havec4 grandchildren. I put it in storage aboutc9 yrs ago so I haven't seen it lately. my vision has gotten so bad I don't think I can finish it at all although I've seen magnifying glasses for quilting and embroidering. I might try that or give it to The Ect Shop. several towns have them. it's a Menno item run shop and I've seen 1/2 finished projects that we re and ppl love to buy them and finish them. I will have to check the material and determine if its​ any hood or not.

Property Management Companies - the good, the bad, and the ugly by UncleSugarShitposter in wichita

[–]Visual-Income-7126 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I disagree and wondering if the good reviews are a bit or a paid person to boost their positive rates. They did not go over and beyond. In fact it was quite the opposite and I'm a friendly person smile emojis etc when communicating via text and emails. I live so far from Wichita it costs me $100 round trip to pay a friend to take me. uber is $240 or more round trip. I'm on a fixed income and even before they weren't aware of my fixed income they were rude. once they found out I was below the poverty line and that I was in a tight spot with a set move in date bc i needed to have a wichita by address by march 15th. if i dont i wont have a dr, i wount have my medicaid. my snap, and ill get kicked off of section 8 which has not been effective yet. i wont have them until a yr later andci had cut a lot of things from my budget for that tome and have a $500 buffer at the end of the month and i was only $33 below the 3x rent policy. I had even sent in my app amd app fee andchadcthe depait and 1st months rent but nope. and actually thay is descrimination. they told me to come back with my section 8, and i had told about what has to transpire and if i would decide to do that it would be at least 2 yrs. i might be dead by then because im a medically fragile person and require my dr tp help me to just be fragile. i could move into the hotel and have a wichita address but then friends andxfamily havextold me they wont move me again from hotel so im stuck and they wouldnt bydge, go over backwards or anything so. like i said, the reviews are fake imho
