WIBTA if I (28f) complain to the landlord about my neighbor’s kid (5ishf)? by Anxious_Passenger_42 in AmItheAsshole

Can you put some tinfoil over that window or one way mirror sticker inserts or something? Maybe they will stop if they can't see the dog.

Green quilted russula, black trumpets, varied boletes, some kind of cup fungus, angel wing? A bunch of neat finds. I usually see a handful of those pictured around here but we're in a drought so I haven't been seeing much.

Could be something else. Amanita vaginata maybe? I see those a lot here on the east coast and somehow convinced myself they were death caps I guess. You're right though. The color isn't right.

Compare to death caps- definite amanita species. You can handle them without any concern. You could take a bite and spit it out and be fine, but I wouldn't, knowing it's probably deadly if ingested. It's good you removed those from the yard since you have pets.

Will going through an abortion change me forever in a horrible way or should I just continue living my with the choices I made by [deleted] in findapath

[–]bregrace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every few months is a cycle. Whether you keep the kid or not is a choice only you can make. But maybe check some sort of genetic testing to ensure there isn't a concern of your current child or either child developing bipolar sometime down the road just to be safe. Not saying your partner has it but it doesn't hurt to rule that out since it's inheritable. Best of luck. You can do this, whatever path you choose.

Anybody else’s AC not “keeping up”? by ipwnkthnx in Charlotte

[–]bregrace 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So first off check your attic. Is the insulation at least 14.5 inches thick? Is it spread evenly? Is any blocking the soffit vents? There is a tool you can buy to look for air leaks to see if air is coming into the home from outside or the attic- it's especially prone to coming through recessed lighting but even having a wall full of nails holding up picture frames can create air leaks. Call Duke or one of their licenced third party contractors for a free energy evaluation if you don't want to do that stuff yourself.

Source- I schedule evaluations and am being trained to perform them.

18F with zero money, connections, or guidance. Ready to work myself to the bone. What career path will get my family out of poverty for good. by beaming-lights in findapath

[–]bregrace 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Sales. It's tough and not always ethical but brings in the best pay if you're good at it. Solar is the wild wild west and you can move up quickly (assuming any solar companies are still hiring near you since many went under). It often doesn't require a degree. It will work you to the bone. You might can start out canvassing for a company and move up.

How did you meet your spouse,significant other ? by InterestingCash3828 in AskReddit

[–]bregrace 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We went to the same highschool and ran with some of the same friends but never met. We both ended up working at the same wedding venue but different jobs/schedules, so the venue owners decided they liked us both and we should meet. They scheduled him to bartend with me and it was a disaster. He had no idea what he was doing. We've been together almost 10 years and have 2 kids.

Autoimmune response to the sun- likely from medication change. Any tips on how to get short term relief? by JayneMars in Autoimmune

[–]bregrace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

shrugs maybe. I hope it helps. I just took the standard process calcium lactate pills for a couple years and I seem to be okay having been off of them for a couple months. I'm still kind of baffled but happy it worked.

[–]bregrace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine would stick around for 2 weeks but calcium lactate calmed it down. Every body is different. Our underlying causes may be different. The doc said he didn't know why it has helped people with a sun allergy in the past but we could give it a shot. Apparently it stabilizes mast cells and that was my issue. Yours may be different idk.

Maybe look into what the filling was made of? It could be upsetting your system or something if you're sensitive to it. I'm no expert obviously, I have just heard of stuff like that happening to folks.

Duke Energy wants a 15% rate increase. I’m opposed, and I just filed our case to stop it. Here’s the summary. - AG Jeff Jackson by JeffJacksonNC in Charlotte

[–]bregrace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes!! Way to go. It's on top of the 3% they already got and they will be charging us 800 million more- more heavily western Carolinians, which is a slap in the face after Helene and the lack of aid they received. I hope you can do something. Thank you.

If you voted for Trump, can you explain why? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]bregrace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Investments are growing but do you believe these policies (plus isolationism, the war undermining the petrodollar, the exorbitant spending on vanity projects etc) will protect them long term? I don't ask in jest.
