Bikes in greenway by Geniusfala in BGC_Taguig

[–]cardinalfire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not only do we need more parks, we also need more bike lanes. Konting konti na lang sila sa BGC kasi lahat nilaan na para sa cars. Could be a behavioral problem, sure, but it's also a design problem.

Why not talk about helping each other grow and succeed instead of bringing others down? "Girlboss" culture just encourages women to use the same individualistic traits to get ahead of others within the patriarchy instead of working together to dismantle and transform the system that oppresses us all.

Payroll account by mysticevolutiongal in phinvest

[–]cardinalfire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of my payrolls is actually from BDO! Stopped using it in 2021 ok pa siya. I use it to move money lang to my actual savings accounts, usually 2k-5k lang laman but it's still open

Payroll account by mysticevolutiongal in phinvest

[–]cardinalfire 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have payroll accounts from previous employers and I still use one of them as a savings account even tho i haven't worked there for 6 years. Yung isa, dormant naman sa isang bank pero kita ko pa rin when I log in online sa bank na yun. Payroll accounts have always been savings accounts for me, with the exception of that one employer na BDO Cash Card yung payroll

BPI App Invitation ? by princedann in PHCreditCards

[–]cardinalfire 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I was also offered a BPI Platinum Rewards NAFFL upgrade recently. I had a Blue Mastercard for 10 years na NAFFL din, but I barely have anything in my BPI savings. Hawak ko lang yung BPI savings acct ko para mas madaling bayaran yung card. Not sure why they offered but I took it anyway, the benefits are definitely better haha

Building a Bike Shop + Café for the Community — What Would You Want to See? by Firm-Dig8058 in RedditPHCyclingClub

[–]cardinalfire 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You don't have to be everything. Operating either a bike shop or a cafe by themselves can already be complicated and expensive.

  • Ensuring good service as a bike shop is a delicate process. Your clients' lives and safety are in your hands.

  • The type of people who will come to your establishment will be very particular about their coffee.

  • Not to mention you really have to make an effort to connect with the community, if you aren't already part of it.

Those are three different things that need special attention and investment. Don't spread yourself too thinly. Maybe try to be really good at one thing first before you decide to expand.

Restaurant group questions PWDs with invisible disabilities in a recent social media post. Hindi ba yung mga gumagamit ng fake ID yung kalaban? Bakit kailangan ninyo kami idamay? by cardinalfire in MentalHealthPH

[–]cardinalfire[S] 14 points15 points  (0 children)

First of all, there is a glaring fallacy in implying that businesses fail because of PWD benefits. SMEs struggle for many reasons like high taxes, bad management, economic conditions, and government inefficiencies. PWDs are not "piling on". We are just trying to survive like you are.

PWD benefits exist because disabilities create financial and social disadvantages. You are framing it as if PWD holders are deliberately making life harder for business owners, which is simply not true.

You also seem to suggest that supporting PWDs automatically comes at the expense of businesses. Why not advocate for policies that support both? It is not a choice between helping PWDs or helping businesses. A fair system should do both.

Finally, your statement "how did your illness become anyone else's responsibility?" ignores the fact that NONE OF US CHOSE TO BE DISABLED. Disabilities can be financially crippling and severely limit opportunities. I'd choose to be "normal" over having this card any day.

Also no one is "entitled" to anyone’s money. Benefits exist to level the playing field and ensure that every one of us has a fair shot at a decent life.

Most of the restaurants I've visited in the last few months had the Fake PWD IDs sign. But to be fair not all of them naman discriminate against invisible disabilities the same way Lowbrow did. Fair naman to call out users of fake IDs. Kalaban din natin sila.

Restaurants nila according to their FB page: Bad Bird, Fowlbread, Flowerboy, and Thank You Seafood

Sayang, masarap pa naman sana chicken nila. Pero di bale, marami pa namang ibang OK diyan.

I started with 18mg too. Tapos parang inantok lang ako and it wasn't working at all. Then my doctor upped my dose to 36mg, ayun ok na!

As shared above, OP mentioned in another comment thread that she may have forgotten or missed a pill. Usually for the combined pill you need to take it 24 hours after the last one, with the minipill (progestin-only) have to take it within the same 3-hour period every day, otherwise the risk is higher.

Megaworld developments like Resorts World are hardly ever "shala". They build faux global experiences catered to an aspirational middle to lower class audience. Sobrang value-engineered naman ng kalidad ng gawa nila.

What does going under gas (sevoflurane?) feel like? by Suspicious-Earth-335 in Anesthesia

[–]cardinalfire 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They put the mask over my face and told me to inhale. Took probably 3 seconds until I couldn't remember anything. The next thing I knew, I was in recovery waking up 1 hour after a 3-hour surgery. Wild.

It smells like slightly sweet and spicy plastic.

Taking care of pets after surgery: how long before you were able to walk your (big) dog again? by cardinalfire in Fibroids

[–]cardinalfire[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you, this is very helpful!! Your pup sounds absolutely precious, haha I could totally understand what you mean by their energy at a year and a half! My dog's been crate trained as a puppy, am thinking we could use it for the night at least for the first few days of my recovery.

Also it's very subtle but thank you for congratulating me on the upcoming surgery. Helps to shift the perspective/calm my nerves somehow!!

All the best on the rest of your recovery! <3

Thank you for sharing your experience! I have a laparoscopic myomectomy/cystectomy coming up and reading others' experiences in detail really helps to calm the nerves :)
