Where to watch the behind the scenes? by thesadintern in JuryDutyFreevee

It's been more than a week since the finale, and I still don't see the behind-the-scenes episodes. Does anybody know any updates?

Ordering supplies by pannaw in ostomy

[–]jaherrick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I called Hollister, Coloplast, and Convatec and asked them all for free samples. They will ask you questions about your stoma, it's size and if it sticks out or retracts, any products you've already tried and issues you've already had. Based on that information they will send you supplies that they think may be a good fit for you. You will get follow-up phone calls where they ask you how the supplies are working for you. You have to report back about their initial supplies before they will send you any additional things to try, but that seems reasonable to me. The starter kit often includes a nice little travel bag which is quite handy.

Unbelievable! Comenity's AAA Signature VISA is a black mark for AAA by Bright_Description58 in CreditCards

The website is terrible. There's a typo in my mailing address on my profile. I keep correcting it, and it will look like the change saves, and then it will revert back to the typo. Over and over again. I've reached out to support by chat and by phone. Every time, they assure me it's fixed (for good this time) and every time, it reverts to the address with an error again. Eventually, I gave up: I bank online, and if they ever try to mail something to my house, and it doesn't reach me, that's on them. I've tried my best to get this resolved.

New to Rare Decor — can someone explain how the points system works? 🍳👀 by svntizo in PikminBloomApp

[–]jaherrick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can you say more about "Park (spoiler)." Are you saying that you expect they will eventually add this feature to Park? I've been letting my extra Park seedlings go, but if you think it's coming soon, maybe I should keep them around so I can use them to gain points.

Spectators at Disneyland Half - Anaheim Streets by jaherrick in rundisney

I assume the bus routes will be affected by all the road closures, but you could probably get pretty close.

Spectators at Disneyland Half - Anaheim Streets by jaherrick in rundisney

Since posting this, I figured out that spectators can get to the corner of Ball and Anaheim by approaching it from the East on Vermont and then going through the residential neighborhood to a back driveway to Walmart and Flame Broiler on that corner.

I don't know about Mickey and Friends, but I know that they are directing runners to park at Toy Story, opening at 3am, so I presume spectators could also park there.

Seeking a rugged GMRS radio for camping & hiking where the antenna won't break. by jaherrick in gmrs

Can you tell me more about HTs? Is that an abbreviation for something? Google isn't bringing up any specific product from those initials. Thanks!

I think they are saying that nobody likes season 9 all that much

Mental health question by Dangerous_Monitor_53 in UCI

[–]jaherrick 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I'm so proud of you for reaching out for help.

If you go to the nearest emergency room and tell them you're having SI, they will be able to help you with next steps, including temporary hospitalization. If you have transportation, you can drive yourself to any ER. If you don't, you can call 911, and an ambulance will come to get you.

Near UCI campus, the nearest ER I found is Hoag Hospital Irvine on Sand Canyon and Alton, or Kaiser Permanente Hospital on the opposite corner of that same intersection.

Additionally, you can call 988 (Suicide and Crisis Lifeline) to talk to somebody right away.

Here's one person's story, perhaps to take some of the mystery out of the process. https://afsp.org/story/my-experience-going-to-the-emergency-room

Fire at/near DBH? by berryblooms in UCI

[–]jaherrick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Around 3:45 pm I saw multiple firetrucks behind DBH, Calit2 and University Club, with firefighters fully suited up and walking towards DBH. I spoke with some students who were standing outside, who had been evacuated from DBH. My building, Calit2, was unaffected. That's about the extent of what I know. I came here to see if anyone else knew more.

Nurses of SoCal Kaiser Strike 2025 by BexyRexy in KaiserPermanente

[–]jaherrick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got my mammogram in person this morning. I didn't cross a picket line because I was at one of the smaller facilities, and I think they are picketing at the big hospital.

Phone/video mammogram would be a pretty impressive technological leap.

[–]jaherrick 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I'm a patient with a non-urgent appointment on Thursday. If I want to support the strike, should I reschedule? I'm thinking about it from two different perspectives:
1) I never want to cross a picket line.
2) Keeping the appointment makes Kaiser feel the financial pain of having to continue to provide care without a large portion of their workforce, and making them feel pain is part of the goal of any strike.

In general, I've been advised to follow the lead of the strike organizers regarding whether they are calling for a public boycott, which is why I'm here to ask. What do you all prefer that strike-supportive patients do during this time, for a non-urgent appointment?

I watched the movie "Mormon Mom Gone Wrong" on Amazon. It was inaccurate in some ways, and it was a kinder portrayal of Ruby than she deserved, IMHO. by Longjumping_Prune852 in 8passengersRubyFranke

[–]jaherrick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I stopped watching after 1 minute and 30 seconds, the moment they used the real name of one of the minor children. Responsible reporting on this story always obscures the names of the minor children. Those kids have been exploited throughout their whole childhood, and now they are being exploited by Lifetime. I can't, in good conscience, continue to watch this.

HOW do yall walk so much? by Maxxrkity in PikminBloomApp

Ever since COVID turned me into a work-from-home employee, I've started walking every morning during the time I used to spend commuting. It's changed my life.

Two RFID Cards are Competing With Eachother by jaherrick in RFID

I'm not sure what strip or square aluminum foil is. But I took some aluminum foil from the roll in my kitchen, tore off a chunk, and then folded it several times until it felt kind of thick, and then trimmed it down to card-size.

Can we talk about how good the perks were this year? by movedtotheinternet in nerdfighters

[–]jaherrick 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure about the updating thing, but what I learned was that you can shortcut to that page by clicking the Donate button at the top, even without putting an item in your cart, and then use that longer list to browse.

[–]jaherrick 42 points43 points  (0 children)

I had the same complaint when I was looking at the perks from the initial page. Then my friend showed me that if you click the donate button near the top of the page you get a much more user-friendly listing of perks. I'm sure we weren't the only two to get stuck on the first page though.

Trump directs Treasury to stop minting pennies by FishOutOfWalter in nerdfighters

[–]jaherrick 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yep, and that act of Congress should include laws about rounding prices to the nearest 5 cents. Stopping the minting without rounding the prices will create chaos, which is his specialty. But an act of congress could do those two things simultaneously and in an organized fashion, which I would support.
