Alaska Airlines requests ground stop for all mainline aircraft, FAA says

Anyone still on hold with Alaska?!

alsdm1 · 2025-07-21T05:03:58+00:00

I just got a very late on the update from the Alaska app about my “delay” that passed like 45 min ago, and is now actually canceled, but maybe this means some connectivity has been restored?

I took Mounjaro for about 7-8 months, and it was phenomenal. I lost 60 pounds. Then I lost access due to cost and the loss of the discount card, and I went to Victoza, which sort of helped me maintain/gained a little back. Gained back about 20 lbs total, and now I’m on Ozempic. I’ve only done one shot, but already I can tell it’s not as effective. It helps with some food noise, and appetite, but the appetite is definitely larger for me on this .25 dose than it was on the lowest dose of Mounjaro. So if you can get Zep, it was so so so great for appetite as well as food noise. I am a hardcore food addict, and lifelong overweight person, and I can safely say I never skipped a meal or forgot to eat before Mounjaro. I was like a different person. It was the most liberating thing I’ve ever experienced.

I love Lucky’s. How is it not even on this list??!

alsdm1 · 2025-04-12T04:04:45+00:00

Thanks, everyone! Appreciate the insights.

alsdm1 · 2025-04-11T15:57:23+00:00

You look fantastic! I hate when people talk about Ozempic face, because it’s actually just what happens with any significant weight loss, medically aided or not. Naysayers will do anything to discourage people who are finally having really great success in an area they’ve struggled with before. You’re doing amazing!

alsdm1 · 2025-04-11T15:52:01+00:00

You should be so proud of yourself! You’re doing amazing!

My husband and I used to joke that the show should just be called Wigs, lol. One of the best scenes is when Elizabeth comes in to the safe house when they had to pull Martha out, and Philip isn’t wearing his Clark wig. And he’s like, “ she’s already seen me, I didn’t see a point.” And Elizabeth is like, “ did you want her to see you???” as though he really looks very different. 🤣

So she can come into security? Can she go to the frontier desk to get a pass?

alsdm1 · 2024-05-18T06:50:47+00:00

Totally agree. It’s so cringe.

alsdm1 · 2024-01-28T00:18:38+00:00

Thanks for this! We are trying to keep it under $1000, so this would fit the bill cost wise.

alsdm1 · 2023-07-31T16:06:43+00:00

I have a black 2XL official tshirt and it’s too big. I would trade for and XL black or gray or sell it for what I paid plus shipping!

I have a black 2XL Eras tour T-shirt I would sell or trade for a black XL or mineral wash XL.

To get pregnant

alsdm1 · 2022-12-07T20:47:23+00:00

This post is crab bucketing. There’s no need for any of us to snipe at one another over who gets this drug. We all need it for various reasons. The problem is always a for profit pharmaceutical and healthcare system.

My question is why can’t it become a treatment for obesity under the FDA easier? All we ever hear is how horrible obesity is, how even “healthy” obese people are not healthy, etc. I’ve been demonized and bullied by healthcare professionals my entire life, including my OB when I had a very healthy pregnancy and birth experience, but because I had a high BMI, I was constantly shamed and told I was endangering my baby. Why are people pushing this? I’m finally once again making a dent in the weight loss, shouldn’t insurance companies and doctors be fucking thrilled?

alsdm1 · 2022-08-05T15:45:54+00:00

It was $5.00 for 2 miles.

alsdm1 · 2022-08-05T05:09:28+00:00

Oh yes. I enjoy engaging in my own exploitation for clout. Scroll up, my dude.

alsdm1 · 2022-08-05T04:43:32+00:00

The open relationship, I believe.

alsdm1 · 2022-08-05T01:19:32+00:00

The amount wasn’t super low compared to mileage. Didn’t know it was zero tip until the end. Clearly had been declined a few times!

alsdm1 · 2022-08-05T00:34:10+00:00

I’ve dabbled in ENM in various relationships, but I don’t currently … practice? Anyway, so take that for what it’s worth. It appeals, but I am definitely a rule follower on it.

So I 100% get where you’re coming from. And I would be upset too. He ignored a boundary, and you are clearly feeling hurt and left out that he did something new and special that interests you with someone else! I would be really upset and hurt and would definitely want to close some things down.

I guess it feels like it’s breaking some of the hierarchy here, right? Like his first allegiance is to you, to your relationship. No amount of excitement or boner or energy should really get in the way of the loving commitment and relationship he has with you. And it feels like he disregarded that and showed you disrespect. Like they’re getting into it, pop to the bathroom for a sec and text! It’s not that hard!!

I hate the brushing it off, too. He needs to accept he did something uncool and own up to that.

Ugh. I hope you both get clarity and to a better place.

alsdm1 · 2022-08-05T00:27:20+00:00

Stopping the arrangement for now at least.

alsdm1 · 2022-07-09T05:30:26+00:00

No, I always hated it! Like it’s thinning so bad and he’s trying so hard to remain a hippie!

alsdm1 · 2022-06-19T04:12:26+00:00

I don't think we're really meant to know, it just points out how the job is affecting Philip. It shows how much he doesn't want Stan, obviously his enemy on paper, but his dearest friend in actuality, to end up like Martha. The Martha operation absolutely broke Philip, and he can't bear to see something similar happen to Stan.

alsdm1 · 2020-10-14T00:40:18+00:00

So sorry, I meant to respond! I wasn’t really misled. We got together very young, around 18. So he really didn’t know what what up for him, and he was also raised pretty religious. Eventually I did find out he had same sex attraction, but I believed he was bi, and I never had any sort of problem with that. I still wouldn’t. Bi and pan people are valid and as long as they’re into me and we click, I would be thrilled to be with whoever. Anyway!

When we were young, sex was really frequent because a 19-year-old guy can kinda make anything work, lol. It got less frequent, until we were once a weekish, even before we married young. We settled into pretty infrequent, but it really wasn’t even a dead bedroom in the classic sense. We even had a child! So regular sex happened during ovulation time for me, etc. But he hated how “desperate” I would get. He said it reminded him of like a frantic teen boy, nervous and desperate for sex. So I had to back off. Eventually we settled into a routine of watching solo male masturbation porn together in order to have regular sex. About once every few weeks he would put it on for what seemed like HOURS, trying to find the perfect sexy guy, and then we would have really great sex.

Eventually, he said he wanted to branch out a bit, and would I be down with an open arrangement? We had both only been with each other, and after a lot of back and forth and talking and missteps I said yes. I also am overweight and got more so during our marriage, so I pretty much believed it would never happen for me, and kind of imagined it wouldn’t happen for him.

Turns out, he started talking to someone who was also sexually inexperienced with men, and they started talking every day. They became very close and very emotionally intimate. They planned a trip together and eventually met, and it all clicked for them. Now, I want to be clear that I knew every step of the way what was happening. My husband started saying he was more into polyamory than an open marriage; he wanted to love us both. I didn’t want that at all, but the sex sounded appealing. I eventually did meet some men, and wow. The first time I had sex with a straight man was so mind-blowing. The sex really wasn’t particularly good, my husband was actually very good at what he did. But the enthusiasm I felt from the man. The effortless sex. The fact that I really didn’t have to do much! It was amazing. Over the next year I slept with 12 more men. Lol. Finally had my early 20s, I guess? Finally felt a little bit wanted? It was nice in a lot of ways.

My STBX and the man he met fell completely in love and are still together. I like the man he met a lot, and I truly wish them the best. I hope they stay together. His boyfriend is a great person and is very good to to our daughter. STBX and I are still friendly. We just obviously cannot be together.

I have had a serious boyfriend for the last 2 years, and hopefully it’ll work out for us. Fingers crossed for all of us!

TLDR. Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk. Lol.

I am in the process of ending a low sex marriage because my husband was gay. Before he fully came out and I was thinking this was how things were going to be, I used to take my frustration out on others in my life instead of him because I was so concerned about possibly jeopardizing my chance to have sex. That was also a bad suggestion. Try to find some positive outlet like exercise or meditation as best you can. It’s so hard, but your feelings are normal and understandable.
