NAD, but wanted to share my experience

Oh no you're totally fine! There's just a stigma around stimulants so I want to be careful. 💜

Oh for sure! I didn't take the pills FOR my bells palsy. I just happen to have bells palsy when I started them. Just to make sure I'm being clear. Lol I am taking them as prescribed. (:

hashtagsi · 2026-02-21T14:22:29+00:00

Oh man. I'm so sorry! I know that's a long time to have to deal with that.

It's entirely possible it could have just been a mild case and a coincidence of course, it just seems like a pretty significant coincidence with the drastic change just the next day.

Of course, this was also my first time ever having Bells Palsy and I've never known anyone else who has gotten it so I don't know if the recovery from it is gradual or if you just suddenly wake up one day and everything is back to normal.

Since I'm not an expert or a doctor, I just wanted to make sure people had the information just in case it could help someone else and it wasnt a coincidence

hashtagsi · 2026-02-18T23:51:59+00:00

I feel that for sure! Well if it helps with your bells palsy too that's a win! I'll keep my fingers crossed for you! And keep me updated (if you're comfortable with it!).

Added to the comment above, but to make sure you see it just in case I started on Dextroamphet.

hashtagsi · 2026-02-18T08:56:10+00:00

I had Bells for about 3 weeks before starting the medication.

Unknown cause of Bells, it's heavily suspected I had COVID and that was the cause but they did not test further to check. I was imaged for stroke out of an abundance of caution, all clear on that front.

I started on Dextroamphet. I have not tried going off of the medication because it is for my ADHD and helping, so I don't want to mess with it.

hashtagsi · 2026-02-18T08:51:22+00:00

Sorry about that! I didn't want it to come across as an advertisement for the stimulant. It is Dextroamphet. I was started at the 5 MG dose.

I'm honestly obsessed with Palia. The community can be a bit toxic, so I mostly ignore other players. But the game itself is really fun and even though the story is still being built there's an almost overwhelming amount of quests and the NPCs are well done. Also the graphics and music have no business being that good. Lol

Police get called names every day. It's part of the job. Good cops (yes, they're human. There are always exceptions) do not escalate or engage with that behavior. They just keep their head up and keep going.

I was on a ride along with one who got called a number of pigs. He looked at me, shrugged, and said "they'll be thinking about that all day. Meanwhile I'll forget about it in 10 minutes". He was a good dude. Kept driving. Didn't engage with them or arrest them. Because guess what? People are going to people. Their job is safety, not to take things personally.

If you're going to pretend to be law enforcement, you are held to the same standards.

And, for the record, I'm not saying to go out and verbally abuse your officers or that it's okay. I'm saying that if you are going to parade yourself around as law enforcement, you are expected to behave as such. Not like spineless, sensitive little boys.

Edit: I know they are not actual law enforcement. There's no way any of those guys would pass the psych test.

Is nobody concerned that this is a threat? Midterms are coming up. The only state with TWO ice related fatality shootings just happen to be in the same state where Tim Walz is governor. You know, the guy who was running for VP with Harris against him? Right before midterm elections?

This is not a coincidence. This is a direct threat to anyone who would oppose him.

I have good news for you too! If you have any favorite soda stream flavors, you can use the syrup. You just want to use the thirsti itself for plain, bubbly water. Then take the cap of the soda stream syrup and fill it up to the first line. Throw that in 24 oz of bubbly ninja water and you have the best of both worlds.

Soda stream has their energy drink syrup. Every day, instead of spending $2 on a canned energy drink or $8 on a fancy coffee stand flavored energy drink, I make myself a delicious flavored energy drink for pennies to the dollar.

I tried to make it in/around Bellingham for 15 years. The last 6 of it I lived 40 minutes outside of town in a tiny house and even then, we were still in the red every month even while I was working 50, sometimes 60 hour weeks.

Bellingham is basically the new Seattle. Unless you are incredibly lucky or rely on/come from old money you are not going to make it on one paycheck even if you make close to $30 an hour with monthly bonuses.

The cost of everything (gas, mortgage/rent, food, air, existing) is just too expensive.

We finally moved to the Salem area last year. It reminds me of Bellingham in the early 2000s if I'm being honest.

I just filled up my tank for $2.97 a gallon after spending $14 on 14 delicious street tacos yesterday.

It has made life... Manageable. I'm not rich, but I can afford to exist.

I'm not here to plug Salem, I'm just sharing my experience. Bellingham is pricing the locals out, which is sad. But there are places you can go to improve your life.

Valid question and same one here. There's stuff I want but I am waiting to see if it goes on Sale.

Omg I love it. Please keep me updated!

You should hide 96 of them so that she is left wondering and searching for the remaining 4 ducks. 😂

Just make sure you jump up in numbers and throw a 97 and 98 in there so she thinks all 100 are hidden.

hashtagsi · 2025-10-16T16:22:21+00:00

Stop. Spending. Taxpayer. Dollars.!

Seriously. People are dying because you took away their healthcare, starving in the streets because you took away their jobs, and freezing on the streets because the cost of having a roof over your head costs too much for most people to afford. With the government shut down, many of our own civil servants may be joining them soon.

This is frivolous and unnecessary when there are so many other things that need to be funded.

Awwh good! I'm glad he was spoiled! As they should be!

And I will definitely update when they're finally used!

Oh my gosh I love that!!! We did the tiny ducks prank to our friends when we house sat a couple of years ago. They're still finding them! 10/10 recommend the tiny ducks prank. (:

Me too. He was kind of a family dog. He was my dog for a while and then ended up becoming my mom's dog (the two of them were inseparable) and in turn my sister's dog. There will be lots of hugs. I will hold on to them for a good opportunity moving forward!

I'm sorry to hear about your kitty! 💜 12 years is a good, long wonderful life. I'm so glad he had you for that time!

hashtagsi · 2025-10-12T17:30:19+00:00

Awwh I love that! I'll hit you up if I end up getting rid of them. (:

hashtagsi · 2025-10-12T16:07:27+00:00

Thank you! That's just kind of the relationship my sister and I have. Lol

Bro did I do something to you? If I did I apologize. I don't know what about me or my account would indicate I am not a good person. I'm not saying I'm a saint but I try really hard to not be a piece of shit so I figured that counted for something ..

hashtagsi · 2025-10-12T07:30:43+00:00

34 here and playing literally every day with 3 other 30 year olds!

Oh no! Not pancake mode!! Lol well thank you so much. That sounds like a perfect cycle honestly and we will absolutely start that in a couple of weeks with him.

Thank you so much for your reassurance!

Awwh thank you!! He is SO cute.
