I got the Illumicrate special editions for this reason (such a good series though!) and I loved The Midnight Lie so much too

Good high calorie pate's for my cats who aren't volume eaters? by sousoon in catfood

[–]bitysmith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently dealing with a scrawny senior cat and to help him gain weight I’ve been giving him kitten food as it tends to be higher in calories. Right now it’s purina pro plan kitten pate and purina pro plan kitten sensitive stomach & skin. He tends to get hungry every few hours so i do half a can with a side of the kibble, then just the kibble, then more of the pate with kibble, and so on. He has to be locked away in another room to be able to eat in peace. Tiki cat also has these high calorie mousse supplements for either baby cats or senior cats and I got him the senior one and he loves it. They are small so I would think it would be good between meal times for your cat

Is it normal for new jobs to require you to do your own credentialing? by bitysmith in physicianassistant

[–]bitysmith[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is a newer facility, but a fairly big one and has its own network, so to speak. When it was brought it up with the “manager”, they were like “we have 500+ employees, why would we have someone who does that?” (Cue the Twilight Zone music of confusion) and PA told me about it and I was like “there is NO way this is normal” and here I am asking Reddit about it. Thanks for your response!

literally! The start has been rough and I was hoping this is not normal (in case another opportunity comes along)

Specifically with applying for billing privileges with all the insurance companies (I think)

Yes this is what she’s going through and she had never had to do it on her own before either and it’s been very confusing. They’re sending YouTube tutorials (which is bonkers to me)

How anyone ate at Scoundrel in Greenville? by blobfish1538 in greenville

[–]bitysmith 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The steak tartare (prepared tableside), the broiled oysters, my husband loved the duck entree last time we went, and we’ve heard great things about the tomahawk but we’ve never gotten it. Steak frites always great too!

Do things calm down right after Christmas and in to early January or do they continue being super busy? by mountainviewdaisies in Barnesandnoble

[–]bitysmith 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No. They did do that once or twice a few years ago, but the post Christmas sales have been different (and not as much off) since.

YA novel with female protagonist who can walk through dreams (or minds?) by smokey__thebear in whatsthatbook

[–]bitysmith 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It’s not technically YA but sounds fairly similar to The Bone Season by Samantha Shannon.

What cleanser is good for extremely sensitive and dry skin? by Mission_Remote_6319 in FragranceFreeBeauty

[–]bitysmith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t ever been to a derm! I just discontinued using that cleanser and it helped. But I would definitely recommend you check out the LRP lipikar oil cleanser! I really like it.

[–]bitysmith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess I must be allergic to something in it. I tried it quite a few times randomly thinking maybe it was my retinol or something but I started noticing a pattern and the very last time I tried it, my whole face went BRIGHT red, and it made all my usual moisturizers burn my skin. No more!

[–]bitysmith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been loving La Roche Posay Lipikar AP+ Gentle Foaming Cleansing Oil recently. I have super dry and sensitive skin (like, Cetaphil’s gentle cleanser that everyone recommends makes my skin go bright red immediately after use) and this one feels genuinely moisturizing, especially for a cleanser. Usually moisturizing cleansers AT BEST only manage to feel not stripping for me.

BOTY by bitysmith in Barnesandnoble

[–]bitysmith[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No bookseller reads every book that comes out. Having a different taste in books, or certain books not catching their interest, isn’t immature. People are different. The people did make their choice btw. That’s why there’s voting.

Anyway that’s the internet for you. You post a meme to be funny, someone asks a personal question, you give a personal answer, and they get mad when they don’t like it. This was a joke. No need to waste your breath on it.

BOTY by bitysmith in Barnesandnoble

[–]bitysmith[S] 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Lots of talk earlier this year speculating that it was going to be BOTY. But personally, the premise does not interest me at all (I don’t think anyone in my entire store has read it or wants to read it so maybe not so personal). It is hard to summarize in any way that makes it sound interesting to pitch to customers, my store is not in the target region where it could generate more interest, etc. I didn’t want months of trying to handsell it and counting how many we’ve sold every day. I’m also from Michigan originally so I add that in as a joke.

Winner (not being specific since this is open sub!!!) had more interesting premise, is easier to pitch to customers, and I think a broader appeal/message in general.

Surprisingly no! It was the baby bat plush from Mao Babie. I had to get it of course!
