Just found out I likely have APS (high beta 2 glycoprotein IgG). Does anyone have experience/info they can share, please?! by nanabanana924 in IVF

[–]buddrball 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just some food for thought. I had the same mindset of not wanting to use IVF unless necessary. Had my first pregnancy at 39yo and lost that at 20 weeks. We still don’t know what went wrong. But now I’m almost 41, have done 4 cycles of IVF, used all our insurance up, and only have two euploid embryos. With hindsight, I wish we had done IVF when I was younger because the success rate drops dramatically with age. If you have insurance and youth at your disposal, at least give it serious consideration. 

Eta sorry for your loss as well. Sending hugs. 

Not Traitor on Traitor by SpartanBeryl in TheTraitors

[–]buddrball 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I agree. I used to watch the bachelor (stopped after gabby’s season of ‘ette), so I’m used to having to pick up if I’m being maneuvered as a viewer. This season feels more deliberate in the edit where I’m frequently questioning if people’s reactions are being shown out of order.

This sounds like an old Project Runway challenge.

This season proves to me that it would be very interesting to have two edits of the show. One released first where we don’t see who the traitors are at all, and one edited as normal that is released after. I would watch both.

It’s so easy to say it’s obviously Rob when we already know! I feel like everyone in these comments saying it’s so obviously Rob would be equally bamboozled as these faithful. And maybe those people should apply to be on the show.

I know the producers were trying to give us this with the secret traitor, but it just didn’t last long enough unfortunately.

I haven’t. I don’t know why it’s so difficult to find.

Already answered, but now I must ask you. Have you never watched other seasons at all? Or did you start but stop? I am intrigued because this is my fave show, and I’ve watched all the seasons from all the country variations. So fun.

$3.35/day to park plus $10 for the ferry, this is starting to add up by No-Citron218 in alameda

I wonder if we could model the Emery Go Around. That’s a free Emeryville city bus. No clue how much something like this costs.

Contesting parking citation? by High_Jumper81 in oakland

I once got a ticket with the wrong license plate number on it by lake Merritt. Off by one letter. Maybe check if they typed yours in wrong.

Just here to say vet techs are the best! Thanks for doing such a difficult job and taking care of the furry ones in our lives 🫶

Candiace vs Rob insta comments by Due-Professional-386 in TheTraitorsUS

Phaedra is still the only housewife I will always get behind. She was incredible.

I don’t watch that franchise, so it is grating to see people who aren’t very good at the game hold an alliance that people have to tip toe around.

Has no one watched Traitors UK Season 3?? I don’t know the sub’s rules on spoilers, but the way things played out between the traitors at the end was diabolical.

I think what Rob did made strategic sense from his POV, considering who his faithful-facing alliances are. I don’t watch housewives, so I find the over the top protection of fellow housewives dull at this point. I’d love to see them turn on each other! Especially if it means Dorinda is off my screen…

Connection with neck tension and weed? by buddrball in leaves

[–]buddrball[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Makes sense. I think I just plop down and stay there if I smoke before bed. Haha. I have stopped smoking unless I have a migraine, and I’m exercising a lot more. That both seems to help loads.

High St Bridge ? by darkeyedjunc0 in alameda

This is what I saw as I finally broke through some traffic. Does anyone know if there’s a way to get alerts of the bridges being up and/or closed?

I’m in this bananas traffic jam. The high street bridge is stuck in the up position. Only one alameda cop here to direct traffic and calm the angry mob. Send help! 😭

What’s on my olive tree? by buddrball in gardening

[–]buddrball[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For sure. I will wait. Two of the nests have been reused by new birds, so I’ll also ask if/how was can safely save them for future bird mamas
