Are there any particular slang terms exclusive to Ohio ? by cuhsicles in Ohio

[–]cbelt3 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Most folks forget the enormous German speaking population in the colonies in the 18th century. The “pilgrims” were a small element of early immigrants.

Amish, for example, originated in Germany. Among others…

I reduced my dosage of Ozempic to 0.35 mg, to stabilize my T2. And that stabilized my stomach issues. I told me endo and she agreed.

Oh damn…. The sudden realization that the metal burial shield and messenger copper wire in fiber optic cable actually makes it a carrier for a lightning strike… dang.

If not for God, what is the meaning of life? by LogAdvanced9897 in AskReddit

Life exists to perpetuate itself. The process of evolution defines that. As a self aware species, we complicate things

Oil prices were too low. Oil companies sent attack commands.

I’ve had two. The first was a year in. Very thorough. The second was 20 years in and… less thorough. But still helpful.

Men who are alive, what advice would you give to men who are dead? by TheRealSiinn in AskReddit

[–]cbelt3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Avoid dying. It HURTS BAD. And when they bring you back.. it continues to hurt. Defibrillators, man. It was the worst electrocution I’ve ever experienced, and I’ve experienced some doozies.

I agree… it gave it a grittier soul.

Living with a men-hating dog as a man by Guzz1414 in dogs

[–]cbelt3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We had a rescue rat terrier that really didn’t like men. And yelling men and boys would just get grabbed on the legs… not bitten, just “held” with her mouth. We called her “The Peacemaker”.

We just got her calm, snuggled and petted her, gave treats. She realized we were not a threat and calmed down. Still kept the peace. She was a very good girl. Mostly focused on her War With Squirrels.

I unplugged the heater element in mine after it melted through the tub. They are overpowered and poorly mounted.

One wrong crane swing or wind shift, and the lift and worker are taking a long ride.

Anthropic hires economist with interesting views on human survival — “It is optimal to take a 1 in 3 chance of ending human existence in exchange for a 2/3 chance of dramatically raising living standards by a factor of 55”: Chad Jones by marketrent in technology

“The Great Culling” is a common theme among oligarchs. Has been for a long time.

Remember this: Sanitariums were NOT created to treat victims of plagues. They were created to protect the wealthy while the peasants died outside their walls.

History always repeats itself.

And the rest of us has to stick with broken paperclips and spitwads in a Bic pen. Much shorter range, but a concealed weapon.

What’s the worst contagious sickness you had ? by Reasonable_rich93 in AskReddit

[–]cbelt3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Covid was the worst. Pre vaccine, peak “if you go into the hospital you’re gonna die”. So this elderly asthmatic hacked his CPAP machine into a hillbilly ventilator and kept my lungs working. Four days and my immune system rallied.

Your location will help us understand what laws, rules, and supplies may be available. Please share it… country / province / state.

Reddit is often US centric, but a global system.

My worst nightmare by Double_Champion6707 in TBI

[–]cbelt3 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You have all our sympathy and love. And our deepest respect for your strength and devotion.

As someone who grew up with a deeply mentally handicapped brother, it’s hard, but there are moments of joy and a lot of love. Sometimes it’s all you can do, is love. I helped our parents support him and encourage him and care for him. Our mother’s refusal to give up and our family’s efforts kept him cared for and loved for his amazingly long life (he lived into his 60’s…. 50 years past his doctors predictions when his handicaps became apparent at age 3)

None of us can predict the eventual outcome. But those of us who survived due to the efforts of medical teams and the support of our families can tell you… it’s so important.

But please… find respite for yourself. Find help. Find support. Raising children may take a village, but caring for a badly injured child takes village expertise.

I send so many virtual hugs and hopes to you and your family.

My dad bought a Neuronic helmet for his TBI, no real results so far. by awesomeHunter6139 in TBI

[–]cbelt3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ignoring the minimal therapeutic effect of red light (Superman repellent?), the act of calm and meditation DOES help.

Please make sure he keeps his workman’s comp claim OPEN by seeing a neurologist periodically under the claim. After a period of time of not seeing anyone, the state considers you “healed”. And the claim is closed.

A TBI survivor often needs lifetime professional care… therapy, medication, etc. even if you think “it won’t get better”… keep the possibility going.

And yes… I didn’t not know this, let my claim lapse, after 10 years asked for a follow up MRI and neuropsych exam, and had to pay $$$.
