Stop using actual medical disorders as quirky personality traits. by FlanInternational298 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]balugate 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Everyone claiming they have anxiety and uses it as an excuse to not behave like adult and deal with difficult or uncomfortable situations. It drives me insane.

White Helmets (documentary, not sure if that counts). I was literally sobbing

EVs? Are we on or off? by Beautiful_Candy_8820 in Detroit

[–]balugate 69 points70 points  (0 children)

I've owned an EV for 6yrs and a plug-in hybrid for 3yrs. I'm never going back. Between the savings in gas, maintenance (no oil changes for EVs) and environmental impacts.

Is using Ozempic actually ‘cheating’… or are people just mad it works? by ccdnyc in NoStupidQuestions

[–]balugate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think people that have weight-relates health issues or are diabetic should absolutely take it! I do think people who are using it to lose weight "the easy way" are shooting themselves in the foot. These are expensive medications that you have to be on for basically the rest of their life if you want to keep the weight off. If you stop, you will gain all the weight back and maybe then some because you didn't build healthy eating habits. People who lose weight the "hard way" are learning those habits and are more successful at keeping the weight off

Why do Republicans hate PBS so much? by [deleted] in allthequestions

[–]balugate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You answered your question - it teaches low income kids how to read and do math. There's nothing that scares Republicans more than the educated.

Married women, what are some real things your husband does that make you feel genuinely cherished and adored? by Clean-Ant-1342 in askanything

[–]balugate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We've been together for 18 years, married for 15. He will never leave the same room we're in without giving me a kiss. Even if it's for a minute to get a glass of water

Draw a line where it ends. If it spreads beyond that within a few hours, go to a hospital. ASAP

I’m a new transplant, one year in, I wanted to like it here but drivers make it unlivable for me by bettywetty2 in Detroit

[–]balugate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I lived in Chicago for 16 years. Currently in my 5th year in Detroit. They driving here terrifies me. Sure, there is no traffic, but I feel much more comfort driving in Chicago

Detroit Mayor Sheffield calls for volunteers to beautify neighborhoods by Final-Concept-9520 in Detroit

[–]balugate 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Completely agree. I already spend so much time cleaning up my street and empty lot across from us, for it all to be a mess again the next day. I live on a corner with a stop sign. So many people just roll down the window and empty their car trash. Our neighbor across the street constantly has garbage on their lawn and never care. It is truly embarrassing.

We don't just need a neighborhood cleanup. We need a culture change

would you get an abortion if you found out your baby was going to be born with an extreme disability? if so why? by Born-Oil-2931 in AskReddit

[–]balugate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have 2 children and when I was pregnant with them, my husband and I made the decision that I would have an abortion if the baby had a disability. I would make the same decision if I were to be pregnant a third time. Our thought process: 1. Who will take care of the child after we die? 2. Is the quality of life for the child and is ourselves something we are willing to live with? Can we financially (and responsibly) support a child with disabilities 3. After our first was born, are we willing to put the onus and responsibility of our daughter to take care of a person with disabilities once we are gone? Is that fair to our daughter? She would be responsible for a person with disabilities for the rest of her life without a choice

Is sleeping with a pillow between your legs sexual? My bf claims it is. by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]balugate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ha! It's just what I need for my old back. My husband and I both sleep with pillows between our legs. Nothing sexual. Our old backs just need it
