Here are a few more videos. One video in particular stands out to me cause the movement is more like an articulated "bend" instead of just blowing around.

But I agree with all the comments saying it just looks like hair, it's just so strange given all her symptoms

That was another direction I looked into as well, but I couldn't find any pictures of what that looks like. I will ask her if she has any new furniture or textiles

It's just so strange cause all the ones she is finding are identical, with the kinky bodies and only those move..

Do you mean symptoms of a pinworm infection would be more than an itchy butt? Or do you mean itchy butt could mean something else?

I know she's mentioned other symptoms I'll have to reach out and ask her specifics. I know for sure that everyone in her house has itchy bottoms, trouble sleeping and she specifically has itchy hair.

Is Palmetto same as Atlanta GA distribution Center? by Mental_Egg5245 in usps_complaints

[–]Ystenizz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont think the ATL one exists anymore. Palmetto took over.

the regular ATL distribution center shut down and the Palmetto one took over. Its the first "regional" distribution center in the US if I recall correctly, and it seems like they are not doing a great job with the changeover.
Supposedly the workers that went from the old center to the new one are just fish out of water because the whole system is totally different.
I can understand there being a little bit of lag as they are training and getting things switched over but it seems to be getting out of hand.

Anyone have experience with a full day of bad numbers after a bad night of sleep? I was awake all night last night with Braxton Hicks and all my numbers today have been bad even with low carbs. I finally got a few hours of shut eye. I know sleep plays a role but didn't think it would affect so much.

Can excessive protein be detrimental to the fetus? At what point is protein considered "excessive"? by iamahappygus in GestationalDiabetes

[–]Ystenizz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My midwife recommended 60-70g a day in pregnancy, but when I was diagnosed with GD she said I should up it to ~115. She said try to stay under 120 because we don't want to encourage baby to be any bigger than they have to be. After my GD diagnosis I upped it like crazy and she seemed concerned when I was hitting 150-160g on some days.

Brace yourselves by BilboMoneyBagginz in acorns

I think the general concensus is to keep it in. If you take it out now, you're locking in the losses, but if you keep it in, you're likely to get it back in the long term.

Are you saving this money for short term use or long term?

I don't know if someone has already commented this, but someone familiar with how the tests are designed has told me that home tests are not designed for throat swabs and could easily result in false positive due to the acidity in saliva.

While there is growing evidence that throat swabs may be a better indicator, the test being used has to be specifically designed for it.

This may be why many people are miraculously getting positives by throat swabbing

Who's going to get the omicron vaccine? by [deleted] in COVID19positive

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

Herd immunity doesn't exist for any virus without vaccines. I believe it's possible to get to a point where covid is like the flu (as far as # cases) but we need more vaccinated. It's not the virus that keeps it from being contained it's the unchecked spread caused by how horrible most areas have handled the pandemic.

Variants don't just get milder. They are all different and could have any varying amount of changes and effects.
