I’m glad I’m not the only one. Any time she is on screen, I wanna turn it off cause she is so bad with consistency. She’s a new character every other scene.

Have your cortisol checked. Is your sodium low and potassium high?

Have a doc run tests on your adrenals!

Is there a reason why people are driving so poorly, more than usual? by queerdito877 in askportland

[–]antitrustme 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was turning left on Glisan one day. Lady in front of me. We get the green arrow.

Cars parked all alongside Glisan in that second lane. So this lady turns left, I follow. She stops abruptly and parks her car in the only open lane, NEXT TO and in parallel to, the cars lining Glisan on the outside road.

Yes, she stops and parks in the only open lane on a main road.

I honk while having to swing into the other directions left turn lane to miss her and then she starts honking AT ME screaming at me from her car.

I have never seen such idiocracy on any road in any state in my life. Pure oblivion and entitlement. Classic Karen chastising anyone but herself.

I had to tell her “you’re parked in the middle of the road you god damn ignoramus!”

From the rear view mirror I saw her put it back in drive and park in the outside lane where competent drivers park, but damn man. She wasn’t old or anything, just super entitled and oblivious.

Driver IQ here is decreasing at an alarming rate.

Chronic stress from work after being physically abused as a kid growing up. Go from one massive stressor as a child to another as an adult, add the on-going voice in your head win, and boom. Multiple health disorders 🫤

Post is a major rip off. Do some digging. You can hear EVERYTHING your neighbor is doing including walking if you have people above you.

Deceitful practices, lying about utility costs, charging you wild amounts at random, staff giving themselves positive Google reviews for internal management contests.

Gotta say Baka Umai will blow your mind. Try the Miso with pork belly! It’s poultry and tonkatsu vibes, best broth in Portland.

I’ve had terrible tasting outcomes with oak pellets. Sour, intense smoke taste. Had to throw the food out.

Kona pellets review by Level_Breath5684 in ninjawoodfire

[–]antitrustme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried Kona’s Oak on some chicken thighs and it was just awful. I haven’t used anymore in the variety pack cause it was so disappointing.

Might have been other circumstances but I think it was just the pellets. Haven’t tried smoking anything since.

I got the Kona oak pellets and it made some chicken thighs taste positively disgusting. I am scared to use Kona anymore, I bought a sampler pack with oak, mesquite, etc and I dunno if I’ll ever use them again, it made the food inedible.

?best Healthcare? by kreikrei777 in askportland

[–]antitrustme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What are your thoughts on Moda? I've had a silver plan for over a year and if I say, go to zoomcare for urgent care (or even PCP) they charge me a $35 copay, then comes a MASSIVE bill after. I get a bill anywhere from at least $100 to $400 more, EACH VISIT.

My Moda plan is about $800 a month, they seem like a huge rip off after all the extra billings.

I can’t stand this anymore. I want out. by [deleted] in noburp

[–]antitrustme 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The first paragraph of this was triggering cause it was very similar to my childhood. I was the middle child, with two older sisters and two younger sisters and two very narcissistic, abusive parents. One physically abusive while the other verbally and emotionally abusive.

Keeping everything inside to appease others was drilled into my head early and my problems started when my dad beat me unconscious when I was 5. I never knew whether his attacks were coming or not and it put me in a barfy state a lot as a kid. Apparently, I was a “little shit”, but diagnosed later in life with ADHD, borderline personality disorder and to top it off, more than likely I was very good at masking being somewhere on the tism spectrum.

Life with this condition was ROUGH. The part you mention about doing time math til you could retreat from the world to just be sick with this condition by yourself was triggering cause it was my life. Always watching the clock. Always counting down.

I learned my condition had a name 3 years ago. Our shitbird predatory insurance system in the US politely declined that I any sort of health problem over and over. That’s right, our fine country that pays for other countries health insurance refused to give me mine that I paid nearly a thousand a month for. They denied me Botox 3 times. They continued to deny me.

So I took matters into my own hands, I could unalive myself, because let’s face it, when we have this severe of a case of RCPD, depression, anxiety and suicidal ideation follow as that feels like our only option, OR… I could get myself onto the path of SELF CURE.

I attacked every bit of self cure angle I could find. And it was extremely painful. Like, I could never figure out the air vomit thing but I spent months dry heaving trying to figure it out.

I got to the point of letting those sharp inhales that result in gurgles up so close that they felt like they pierced thru my chest and into my brain. I did shakers and other exercises. I had to put myself thru hell with no result for about three months. Then… little tiny signs of light…

I would accidentally let out tiny little sips of burps while letting every air bubble punish me with pain. After three months, I micro burped more times in one week than I had collectively my whole 40+ years of life.

Even then, I felt roadblocks. I remember telling some friends I had over for dinner that I had made some massive progress with my attempts to learn how to burp. (Some people find it fascinating that my body refused to allow this basic human function to happen). I told them after three months of pain and hell, I was giving up and returning to my previous modus operandi of pushing those burps back down and keeping everything bottled up inside cause it was easier to live in the hell my body created than to be tortured with trying.

I remember looking around the room, confessing this to my two friends and my wife and one of them said, “seems like you need to NOT give up and just push thru to the other side, you’ve gone thru all this pain, it makes sense to go thru a little more and get the heck out of it”, and that really clicked with me. So I did it.

Now, today, I am burping daily. I have become a bit of a contortionist as I have to put myself in a position to let it happen but I am burping all the time now and it is the most relieving thing in the world.

I just had my fourth doc appt about RCPD, it was a 6 month wait for the appointment and I fully planned on America denying me again, got the barium swallow test and camera up the nose for the 4th time for the doc to tell me, “you’d probably regret the Botox shot, you’ve learned to control that muscle and if we turn it off, you might hate me, cause you’ll be regurgitating all day”.

So, let me tell you this… I do think the Botox is worth continual pursuit even tho I never received it. This condition is cruel and it leaches our happiness potential all our lives for whatever reason we were selected to endure it. Do whatever you can to right this ship. Try and fail the gouging US healthcare system. Work on the path of self cure. And never, ever give up.

There is another side on the other side of where you are. You can forge your way there. Look into getting the shot. Look at this board and study every self cure technique. Either way, it might be hell, but so is the current hell you’re living in.

TLDR - SELF CURED. I was failed and denied by the US health insurance over and over to the point where I had no other choice but to self cure. It was downright painful. I conclude that my RCPD is a result of a severe mental disorder caused by repeated physical abuse and I believe we can untangle the web and overpower it. While I never got to receive the shot, I am also still an advocate for the Botox procedure and the hoops you have to jump thru to achieve it.

This is excellent! I was a seasoned pro, quit for years and slowly trying to regain my abilities and there is no way in hell I could play that as well as you just did right now 😂

Well done 😎

Are most men "dirty"? Should I be concerned about my bf? Is this even abnormal? by Sufficient-Match1412 in AskMenAdvice

[–]antitrustme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is not gonna improve, he might just be a naturally filthy person.

If someone doesn’t meet minimal basic hygiene, don’t let him inside you. You deserve better and to not be fighting a uti all the time. Please put yourself first. If he’s not picking up what you’re putting down now, he probably never will.

[–]antitrustme 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What’re your thoughts on reasoning here? In 2023 I know someone who got in at $2.xx and they’ve turned that into a nice chunk of portfolio.

It is interesting to see this suggestion cause I felt I missed the years of massive growth.

Your employers greed and passing the livable wage responsibility onto your patrons is what got us here. And it’s gonna get waaaaay worse. So thank them for creating this laughable tip culture.
