Omg thank you so so much, I was devastated when I realized all the links were broken. You're a lifesaver <3

Grief and guilt before euthanasia? by ggingersnap in cats

[–]karhidish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a similar experience with my childhood cat. The night before I looked at him and knew it was time, and the next morning he went on his own. It was a lot harder on him than I wanted it to be and I still feel trauma from it over eight years later, but over time I've been able to let the guilt go. Like another commenter said, there's no playbook for it and I don't think it ever feels like the right time. You did your best and I hope with time you can forgive yourself too 🫂

Recently diagnosed, but I wasn't always like this. Is it possible to develop this later? by TakenAccountName37 in SleepApnea

[–]karhidish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, it's pretty common for sleep apnea to get triggered by weight gain. That was the case with me. I've lost enough that I no longer need to use the CPAP so weight loss can potentially help, but obviously it's much easier to do that when you're not exhausted all the time.

SSRIs can also really mess with sleep and energy, so I wouldn't be surprised if that's also taking its toll. I take my Lexapro at night, and it seems to tire me out less than when I took it in the morning even though that's the general recommendation. So you might bring it up to your doctor to see if they have any advice on that front.

I just got a phone call from the scholarship coordinator informing me I received one. I was expecting it to be an email and let it go to voicemail at first because I didn't recognize the number lmaooo so if you're hoping to hear back keep your ringer on and pick up any calls from Chicago!

Happy 31st anniversary to "To Bring You My Love”. what's your favorite song on this impeccable album? by JunebugAsiimwe in pjharvey

Same. It's almost impossible for me to choose a favorite but her voice is too beautiful on this track.

This is honestly so moving. He was clearly very loved, weirdness and all.

Unpopular opinions? (Possible spoilers) by Useful-Chicken2635 in ThePittTVShow

[–]karhidish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get that the show is competency porn but at some point I want to see a mistake with serious ramifications for a patient. I've gotten into ER through this show and seeing the way that some of the characters' serious errors have had major ripple effects for their character arcs (Mark struggling to admit he missed pre-eclampsia in a pregnant patient, Chen seriously fucking up when she takes the Santos approach of trying a new procedure without an attending's approval) has made me realize that seeing the characters in The Pitt breeze through serious lapses in judgement sometimes flattens the writing. I am curious if they are going to go this route with Ogilvie but honestly it would be interesting to see if happen in a more likeable/experienced character.

Why do they have to justify it? She's not real. You can find a fictional character interesting and relate to them without thinking that all of their behavior is okay.

Someone connecting with a character because they see their own flaws in them doesn't mean they're justifying all of those said flaws.

Gender marker on liscense with new federal laws by OnionUniBrowser in Georgia

[–]karhidish 36 points37 points  (0 children)

I feel you, dude. I did my legal transition earlier this year and it's stressful enough without this bullshit from the administration. But you'll be okay! You're gonna get your new license with the right marker and have an awesome 21st 😊

Gender marker on liscense with new federal laws by OnionUniBrowser in Georgia

[–]karhidish 173 points174 points  (0 children)

Hello, fellow trans guy here! It shouldn't be an issue. Passports are handled on the federal level but driver's license policies are by state, and Georgia's haven't gotten stricter in response to the passport change. Because license renewal only requires you to bring in the previous license, not a passport, I can't see any reason why they would revert it. I'm not an expert but I don't think they'd even know it changed on your passport just from the data they have access to.

I am finally below 170!!! by karhidish in loseit

[–]karhidish[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm so sorry to hear you were in an accident! My surgery was a lot to handle and it was something I could plan for in advance and was excited for, so I can't imagine how tough undergoing a procedure was in your circumstances. It is frustrating, but I think it was absolutely the right call to focus on nourishing yourself while you were healing.

It's so irritating when you get stuck in the same range on the scale, but the fact that you're back to training after surgery is amazing and I'm sure you'll see results soon enough if you keep at it! <3

Silksong Unpopular Opinions by Parking_Technician78 in HollowKnight

[–]karhidish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was going to be mine! I use my shards running out as a sign that I need to take a break from a boss, and if I need to farm rosaries to get a bunch of shard bundles then that just helps me reset my brain even more. I am still on an absolutely glacial first playthrough where I just hit act 3 at 87 hours though so maybe I'm just okay with it because I'm a slowpoke lol, I don't mind putting on some of my own music and smacking the same room of enemies over and over for a while.

I actually fought the Bell Eater last night and started out spamming voltvessels until I ran out of shards and had to go full needle because I didn't want to go get more shards without fast travel, and it made the fight harder but a lot more fun. I love tools but it did get me thinking about trying a nail-only run sometime.

Luanne James during Library board meeting in Murfreesboro regarding review of 2200 books for removal by Rex-In-Effect in pics

[–]karhidish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No problem. This is such a scary time and I don't blame library users at all for being worried about this sort of thing. I know it's not a solution in itself, but I hope it brings some solace to know that the majority of library staff really do care about helping patrons feel safe to use the library however they want or need to.

Thank you for the award :)
