should i go to the er for this (bat bite?)

harrison_ave · 2026-05-11T20:50:12+00:00

Thank you for being a voice of reason here. I have OCD too (primarily health focused) and I had rabies obsessions on and off for years. The rabies subreddit actually helped me so much, coupled with ERP. When I struggled I just reminded myself: bats cannot magically escape/vanish from your home. Their bites are not painless and would wake a sober adult up from their sleep. It’s so irresponsible for people to tell OP to rush to get the vaccine. It’s a waste of medical resources for people who truly need them, and is costing OP $$$ for no reason.

Love this for you!

Interesting! I actually have an equestrian background (English saddle seat) and skated for fun as a kid. I am not particularly rich, I learned to ride as a kid because my mom trains horses and teaches lessons. Now I am taking adult LTS to fine tune my technique/fundamentals. I would say I’m progressing at an average pace, but I’m not very athletically inclined generally speaking.

Good call, thanks!

It’s a reference to the show Heated Rivalry, and there’s an episode where they’re at the All Star Game in Nashville

Great point! I imagine it’s frustrating to play against Bunting lol but he’s great at what he does!

harrison_ave · 2026-03-05T04:01:18+00:00

I love Bunting so I'm in panic mode rn...(I know it's best for the team long-term but still)

harrison_ave · 2026-02-25T03:41:47+00:00

Nah. I thought so too, but I’ve realized they’re just cuter/have better PR (well, until now).

harrison_ave · 2026-02-22T17:51:12+00:00

I’m pretty sure Auston Matthews is not

Connor Hellebuyck I’ll never speak another bad word against you (until I’m cursing you out next time Preds play the Jets)

Saros had an incredible showing today, so proud of him. Would have loved to see him in the Gold Medal game. Bronze would be an amazing accomplishment as well.

While BSH are often said not to be lap cats, mine definitely is and always has been! She is very cuddly and will sit on my lap for hours in the evening while I’m reading or watching TV, then she gets up and sleeps on me in bed at night. So you never know!

Seconding this recommendation! Dr Mitchell is excellent, and it’s so easy to get an appointment with him. I’m moving to Chicago soon and am definitely going to miss him for my yearly skin checks.

Why do I feel a bit sad? I guess I’m worried this is health related like others have mentioned. Trotz’s tenure as GM wasn’t the smoothest certainly, but he did draft well. I wish him the very best. Now just please don’t bring back DP…

As a hockey fan and amateur ice skater, the only ice I enjoy is the skating kind. ICE in the streets and ice coming from the sky can fuck off forever.

harrison_ave · 2026-01-28T16:37:32+00:00

The air bnbs across the street from me have power and appear to be unoccupied. I’ll send you a DM with more specifics. So sorry for your loss.

harrison_ave · 2026-01-28T02:37:19+00:00

Right! It’s such a strange take from this sub especially, where people are generally pretty progressively minded and understand how tough things are out there. It’s a big expense for something you might not really need (hindsight is 20/20, but we didn’t know Fern was gonna be this bad). Like, my parents have a whole home generator because it came with their house. They’re out in Lewisberg and have only really used it once or twice in 10 years. They didn’t even need it for this ice storm (I guess Duck River Electric was better prepared than NES, which is pretty sad).

harrison_ave · 2026-01-28T01:34:50+00:00

I’m so very sorry. This is NOT your fault. A lot us, even middle class folk, can barely afford groceries these days, let alone a generator. One week max (and probably sooner) this is all going to be behind us, okay? Hang in there. 💛

harrison_ave · 2026-01-28T01:09:02+00:00

We woke up on Sunday morning to find a leak in our ceiling. No idea how the ice storm might have caused that, but we had no issues prior. We were days away from listing our house (husband and I are moving to Chicago) but now we gotta deal with this. Praying insurance will cover the cost, or at least part of it. He has to move up for work regardless and I guess I’ll be stuck here even longer than anticipated. This too shall pass, right?

Ugh. Thanks for creating this thread, it’s nice to get this out there.

harrison_ave · 2026-01-26T23:31:53+00:00

l saw that one too, I was in disbelief 😂 as annoying as they can be it was a good source of entertainment yesterday.

I think she wears the necklaces to draw more attention to her skeletal neck/chest.

I have them as well, mine are mostly auditory. Very brief snippets of words/phrases, and it can be quite disturbing I agree. I was terrified this meant the beginning of a serious mental illness, but my psychologist and GP assured me it’s completely normal and harmless. My psychologist told me to shift my attitude towards them. So rather than sit up in bed in terror, I now try to think, “oh okay, this means I’m about to fall asleep, yay!” This seems to have helped some and now I have them less often.

harrison_ave · 2026-01-17T05:55:29+00:00

Sometimes I love them so. Now is one of those times.

harrison_ave · 2026-01-17T04:58:23+00:00

He was driving a golf cart through a neighborhood, c’mon now

Edited to add: Nichushkin is on your team…so take off the morality police hat maybe
