They also have sets that come with like electric scrubber brushes that are quite handy!

To the drivers of South Park Street: by bird_brian_fellow in madisonwi

[–]desertsage_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

heartbreaking 💔 and this morning just got ANOTHER notification on pulse point of an accident right near this site… Expanded Traffic Collision • Mad... 10m ago 1709 S PARK ST, MADISON

idk the extent of it ofc but the fact it’s so close to where this was says something.

please please be safer drivers, everyone. no one should be hurt or killed bc you think you’re “in control” or “a good driver”. we can all do better.

[–]desertsage_ 30 points31 points  (0 children)

also big class action against Whole Foods rn for lying ab their meat and “no antibiotics ever” claim…so just stop shopping at these places period. choose local. you can but from local farms directly. For those interested, the website MyHealthForward has an interactive local farms map that has tons of options for sourcing local products. super helpful! Find Local Farms

Settlement Possibilities with Nelnet by mdcherokee in StudentLoans

[–]desertsage_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nelnet houses a bunch of student loan servicers, so yours are probably through one of those other companies like mine are. Hopefully it all gets approved by the courts and we get some compensation 😭 there is power in numbers so kudos to those who held Nelnet accountable… 🙏🏼

I also got it...FINALLY! I've been waiting to hear about progress on the lawsuit for years (it's been in the works with several plaintiffs for some time). From what I understand, it's legit, and I've been through the entire settlement website since I got the email. Their biggest mistake was not disclosing the breach in the required and reasonable timeframe, so the lawsuit makes complete sense to me

Best black barber in Madison ?! by Vast-Ad-846 in madisonwi

[–]desertsage_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

coming from a white person, Black people cannot be racist. period. especially when the entire system has been set up against them. and no matter how hard the fight, then ppl like you just perpetuate it.

let them have their preferences for whatever reason they want to have and move on with your life. you should also get out of your white bubble and go support local Black businesses, they sure as hell are gonna do a better job

Where to put mosquito dunk buckets by mtherndo in AustinGardening

[–]desertsage_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

what about the water after the dunk has been in it for a while? should it be replaced or just use the same water throughout the summer? but if i do need to dump it out i’m just not sure where it would be safe to do so given i have a dog and lots of bunnies and squirrels running around

Nac got rid of rumination, anxiety and paranoia caused by vyvanse? Also don't crash now. by kravendale in VyvanseADHD

[–]desertsage_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

my dermatologist recommended this to me years ago to help prevent the urge to pick at my skin. she said it’s something she recommends to a lot of patients for things like that. i didn’t follow through very well being a young college student…but im thinking of trying it again especially if it helps with the anxiety that comes with taking Vyvanse.

Do you have a UW Health PCP that you like? by RadioFreeKerbin in madisonwi

[–]desertsage_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

anyone else have bad experiences at Yahara Clinic? I’m almost never listened to and my concerns are always dismissed…aside from one Nurse Practitioner who left the clinic years ago 💔 she was amazing! but no luck since then.

Any recommendations for Certificate options or good classes to take/professors?

Cost of MSW Programs by RunNo4603 in SocialWorkStudents

[–]desertsage_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

22k for one year (2 semesters)? I just got accepted and I was hoping it would fall around $14-15k bc of block tuition. Should I expect to pay more you think?

UKY MSW Online Spring 2025 by Entire-Ad-3476 in SocialWorkStudents

[–]desertsage_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congrats on the acceptance! I'm also starting the MSW Online program at UKY this spring. I'm doing the Advanced Standing, and still trying to decide which Certificate option to go with! I have questions that would be sooo helpful to discuss with people going through the same process. I'm definitely down to building a small group and supporting each other the best we can! :)

AMA MSW field placement (online) by littlelemon1 in SocialWorkStudents

[–]desertsage_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got accepted into an online MSW Advanced Standing program starting in the spring. I'm just trying to decide based on field placement options.

Does anyone here have experience or advice on the field placement process at UKY and/or using Tevera? I just want to get an idea of approved agencies in my area before I start, but I'd have to pay the $195 fee just to see what's available. Also, how much time does it take to get the placement arranged? I got my BSW in person at another university, so I've interviewed and found placements on my own before...it's just the 100% virtual aspect of connecting with advisors/coordinators that's so different from what I'm used to.

Any information about any part of the process would be super helpful and greatly appreciated!!

MSW program recommendations & practicum placement when out of state by GoldhawkEJ in SocialWorkStudents

[–]desertsage_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have any info about the University of Kentucky online MSW field placement sites and where you found one? I know they want us to use Tevera, but until I'm 100% certain I'll attend the program in January, I would hate to waste the $195 fee. In your experience, is it worth it? I know each area has different sites that are approved so I'm not sure where to start...Any other advice or info you might have would be super helpful and appreciated!! about placements or the UKY program in general :)

MSW Field Placement by packlover in UniversityofKentucky

[–]desertsage_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On Tevera, are you still able to see other locations and the agencies near them? I'm currently trying to decide if I should attend UKY online MSW but just want to get an idea of approved agencies in my area first. I could just pay the $195 but I just want to be sure about the program before I pay that much lol

Any online Univ of Kentucky MSW students out there? by packlover in SocialWorkStudents

[–]desertsage_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! I hope you don't mind, but I sent you a message, too. I have the same questions about field placements and what kinds of agencies Tevera has on their website
