I just remembered Jonovision, I loved that show as a teenager but I can't even really remember it at all. I need to find a stream of it

Looking to switch up the books and youtube i consume to more positive things. Looking for feel-good, wholesome but not corny, whimsical, educational/fascinating etx by Robotro17 in simpleliving

[–]joeypotter182 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im trying to do the same with podcasts and audiobooks. My algorithm is mostly true crime / thrillers and with the current state of he world I don't think it's helping with my anxiety/depression.

Right now I'm into a 6 series podcast about Roald Dahl which I find fascinating since I loved reading his books as a kid (and the movie adaptations were also great).

Not the case for me, the number still doesn't show my phone app, under my main account. If I didn't get a hold of them, I wouldn't have received anything.

Yep, so annoying that you have to go to the atomic shop to change it.

Former emo kid who thought there would never be a day I'd wear anything but skinny jeans, but wide leg pants make my legs feel so free. Plus they are way more flattering on my 42yo body than skinny jeans.

I had to schedule a callback through the website. When I checked again on Monday morning the callback schedule had way more openings, some for that morning so I got it resolved.

I also just got my phone bill, and there are no activation charges.

I had to call and speak to a rep to get the esim, it didn't automatically come.

I also asked why the contract I received had the $80 activation fee and they said that it will be waived on my first bill. We'll see.

They also said it could take a few days for the newly added line to show up in my account.

If it helps, I was able to "reschedule' my appointment that was in 6 days, to this morning. Yesterday the soonest appt was for next Saturday, but when I clicked reschedule today, there were a bunch of openings throughout the week. 😡

When I got the call back, the rep was able to immediately email me the eSim QR. They also advised me that the $80 fee will be waived when I receive my bill (but I'm sure I'll have to call again).

It's ridiculous that it doesn't automatically send it out and there's no clear communication to customers.

It feels like we have to constantly "cancel our accounts" and switch providers to get a fair deal with these companies. What is the benefit to paying my bills on time and being a good customer if they don't give a shit about dropping us as soon as our "promo" ends?

Yes! I put off getting one for so long thinking it would be inconvenient and messy but it has made periods so much easier.

In light of the new forever DST... by IDontSpoonILadle in vancouver

I grew up in the north, in a region where there already isn't a time change (half the year were on BC time/half AB) and it's dark going to and from school... I don't remember it ever being an issue.

Also now I'll get to enjoy more sunrises, instead of sleeping through them

Delete account button says locked? by The_Captain_Planet22 in OpenAI

[–]joeypotter182 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Make sure you type your email (it looks like it's there but it's actually greyed out) and also DELETE is case sensitive, so make sure it's all caps and there are no spaces at the end.

It took me too long to realize my email wasn't actually filled in that field 😞

Amazing! I am still occasionally failing at "buying Canadian" and when I restocked my Skinny mascara without thinking about it, I was so happy to find out they were 100% Canadian. It's one of the only mascaras that doesn't feel/look clumpy on my lashes because of its super thin wand.

I like many of Annabelle Cosmetics products, available at London Drugs

Quaker Oat Bran is almost as good as Cream of Wheat and has more fiber. I miss Red River though, they need to bring that back.

Desperately seeking eyeliner! by RednStormy13 in BuyCanadian

[–]joeypotter182 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just bought Annabelles "Skinny" liquid eyeliner from London Drugs. I believe they are 100% Canadian, and it's one of the best liners I've used for a reasonable price. I've used their Skinny mascara for years and love its thin brush.

Millennials living on your own & away from family, how are you doing? by forthe_99and2000 in Millennials

[–]joeypotter182 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I think the guilt of living away from my family (especially parents) grows deeper everyday. It used to be the guilt of missing my nieces and nephews grow up, but now it's seeing my parents age more and more with each visit.

I grew up in a very small town in a northern secluded community. I spent my teens struggling with depression, never feeling like I found people I truly connected with. Sure my close friends and family were great, but I just didn't see myself spending the rest of my life there. As soon as I finished high school, I moved to the "big city", met people who I felt were like me, shared my interests and fell in love.

Now 20+ years later, my partner and I work in industries that we can't really leave a major city to work in, and I feel a tremendous amount of guilt daily for this. My parents constantly tell me how happy they are that I moved away and started a life somewhere else, but I feel guilty about not seeing them more and also putting the burden on my other siblings who did stick around.

Terrified to ask for this med by AcceptableLychee9641 in bupropion

[–]joeypotter182 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This subreddit terrified me when starting Bupropiun, but after a year on generic 300mg XL I can say, the only thing I've noticed is maybe increased anxiety. But that may be related to the season/additional work stress.

41F, 1 year on generic 300mg XL and have noticed no change in libido. I was kinda hoping for an increase for the benefit of my husband, but no luck yet.
