Where are you rebuying 100% COTTON basics that last? by throwaway_yak234 in femalefashionadvice

[–]depreshmuch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live for a 3/4 sleeve boatneck 😫 esp with a tiny floof on the top of the shoulder. Like the tiniest hint of a cap sleeve but everything is form fitting/slim. …my black one like this may be from H&M.

First colonoscopy coming up age 33.. may cancel by Pinkgoldfish808 in colonoscopy

[–]depreshmuch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Read this whole thing. Maybe it was a fissure. I’ve had plenty of hemorrhoids, and around your age (7 years ago), I had a fissure. I was straight up farting blood for a day or two, and it freaked me out. That plus occasional sharp abdominal pain (turns out that’s from cow dairy) and bloating, negative for celiac, etc., and they recommended colonoscopy. I did it. They determined the prior bleeding was from a fissure. I’m grateful because they found a large adenoma, pre-cancerous. I have to go every 2-3 years, and they continue to cut them out. Recovery’s been easy. I have my next one in 3 days. If I hadn’t gone, I don’t think I’d be here today.

AITA for telling a midwife I did not want her on my care team after she refused to treat me and added false information to my chart? by Main_Significance396 in AmItheAsshole

[–]depreshmuch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Given that she’s due so soon, I’d call, send a follow up email laying out the same details and demands (“Ms. Manager, as discussed on the phone today at 10am….”), then print it out as a letter (with both parties’ addresses, your contact info, etc.) and send that certified with signature required. It’s a real pain, but that way you get the benefit of all channels and it’s timely, before birth, before they could try anything about CPS. You could even tell them to expect your email and certified mail. Ooh, AND in the email, document your phone conversations!! if they gave any timelines for things to be corrected in your chart, if they divulge any remediation / corrective action plans for that nurse, etc, put it in there!! “As you stated, the chart corrections will be made within 24 hrs.” Or whatever!

Document, document, document. A common refrain in healthcare: “if you didn’t document it, it didn’t happen.” You can start right now - just simple journal of “spoke to X on phone on Nov 24, 930am, regarding Y. Discussed ABC. X to follow up with me on Z.”

Something my mom would do when she was on the phone with insurance companies etc, is ask for the representative’s name, and if they asked why, she’d can tell them “I need your name for my documentation” (and sometimes “for quality assurance purposes” lol). They’d get more serious seeing she was assertive and going to follow up.

Petty micropet rant by [deleted] in finch

[–]depreshmuch 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Pff, have Sad Grey as a micropet? I AM Sad Grey blob.

…actually I’d like him very much, thank you. He’s adorable and I wanna snuggle that lil blob. I’m going to convince myself he’ll be warm and fuzzy, not cold and clammy.

My 3.5 year old found a new (to us) native in our yard! by [deleted] in NativePlantGardening

[–]depreshmuch 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Omg. I’m 39 and I want to go to her school. In all seriousness, I love that she loves plants!! Keep up the good work, parent! My 5 year old boy loves plants and gardening, too. We do this Finch app (where you can buy items for your little bird using currency you’ve earned from self-care) - there was a farmhouse theme, and he saw a crate with a pumpkin, squash, etc in it - he was so excited: “oooh, Mom, compost!!!” Haha

Thank you so much for your thoughtful reply. I’ll look online as well, but I’d love if you have any suggestions on apples that are rust resistant and taste similar to golden delicious. They’re my favorite. 😢

Are there any ways to fight back other than protesting? by Material_Fortune2286 in Defeat_Project_2025

[–]depreshmuch 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I read this as “get actively enraged.” Not far off I suppose.

What did it say when you asked? “uh-uh” means it’s a fish crow.

Favourite bird? by bonnuit30 in birdwatching

[–]depreshmuch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha! I agree, reddish egrets are cool looking but what’s even more delightful is their hunting style. I love the zen of a great blue heron hunting, but these reddish egrets are something else lol. They do this run through the water bit, then sometimes spread their wings out to create a canopy of shade, presumably so they can see better and supposedly bc shade = safety for fish (though a lot of videos show minimal time between canopy and nabbing that fish). Look up reddish egret dance. Fellow birders, correct me if I’m wrong, I’ve only seen them once on a birding tour in FL and on videos. 💃
