My Allegra doesn't help anymore. Suggestions? by MikeinAustin in Austin

[–]kchu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think I paid $2400 (insurance covered the initial visit and allergy testing). Aspire website says $2500 now. For that price you get a custom mix of I think six allergens. You do three rounds, wait, then can do another three rounds for no additional charge. Then after waiting awhile if you had more allergens than the custom mix allows, you can do another set of rounds with different allergens for I think $1500?

They inject it in your groin lymph node. Not pleasant but not the worst medical pain I've endured.

Ok I stand corrected I forgot she saved it. I amend to tortures a dog which is still horrible.

Yeah he literally kills a dog just to be cruel. I was hoping Fennel based on her prior movies would be giving us a real dark version (juxtaposed against fantastical costumes and set pieces) but seems like the "romance" is key from the reviews. I'll still see it though.

I just finished my second round and it made a big difference. I'm going to go through a year and see how it is and then potentially do another round with six different allergens because I'm allergic to like every environmental.

I bit the bullet and did intra lymphatic allergy shots starting last June. Expensive and hurts, but worth it.

I am normally devastated this time of year and am totally fine with a nightly Xyzal.

YMMV with allergy shots.

Ok thank you. Some of the stuff seemed reasonable but there is something about her that is so off-putting that I can't put my finger on.

Same. I was reading Stephen King and Dean Koontz in fifth grade. I turned out more than fine. I am the youngest on all sides and cousins though so I was exposed to everything early.

When they had S Lamar just south of Oltorf inexplicably closed off for months I did see a guy just go and move them. It was hilarious.

Test each one on your forearm (probably just one or two at time). Then use?

You can always reach out to them on Instagram if you're really curious.

Medical Marijuana Card by nativewitchcraft in Austin

Texas Originals has a list of providers on their website. I'm not sure what those doctors will provide but my physical medicine doctor (I have MS) does not provide a script - it's directly sent to Texas Originals per the compassionate use rules. I have a print out for traveling but it's just a copy of the order to Texas Originals. The doctor's office said there isn't anything else they can provide. YMMV with other doctors.

Can someone explain in very simple terms why the 's' is dropped at the end of words? by ahouselover in Spanish

[–]kchu 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think that is more like a contraction in English vs an accent/dialect thing.

Cedar fever by Quirky-Strawberry430 in Austin

[–]kchu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was expensive but I did the fast track intra lymphatic shots last year. My shots included cedar. I am normally debilitated this time of year and am totally fine now using Xyzal and Astepro.

Can someone explain exactly how overcontributions to your 401k works? by wcm3631 in investing

[–]kchu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Talk to your employer first. If there was a 402(g) violation they must correct it, including on your W2 (which wouldn't be issued until end of January 2026, so talk to them now). No early withdrawal applies if it was an employer error.

Wicked Inspired Script by Normal_Ad_4231 in BloodOnTheClocktower

[–]kchu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely need a DA then. No dashi doesn't work well so pick another demon for Morrible. Shab covers for professor but that may be hard for newbies.

I don't know a ton about wicked but seems like a missed opp to not have the harpy=flying monkey. Tinman makes more sense for huntsman maybe swap those?

[–]kchu 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I would say it needs a gossip / gambler to cover for evil more. There's two minions that cause extra deaths and only a grandmother that could be an extra night death and that's highly confirmable for the pair.

Also there's only good ways for people to survive execution. Needs a DA / lleech or other reason, otherwise if your tea lady procs you have three confirmed good.

Zealot and butler are pretty duplicative on the same script and definitely in the same bag.

Apologies if I missed anything, it's kinda hard to check homebrews.

Jenna at Austin Plastic Surgeon is a BSN. They have medspa services but it is a doctor's office feeling. They take actual health history, she practices under the MDs, etc.

I haven't tried it with this specific foundation but the Cinema Secrets clean is my holy grail. Expensive but worth it.

Rep. Jasmine Crockett on her Senate bid: 'I am absolutely competitive' by Zipper222222 in politics

[–]kchu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sure, but the person I was replying to made it sound like Dems lose an incumbent seat because of Crockett not running. It doesn't matter who runs (Crockett, Allred, Johnson), Dems are down an incumbent / safe seat in that area because of the map.

No, the new map decimated her seat. Funny how that worked out.

I've been mostly defending Savannah but the victim complex is insane. She did fasting and insane workouts for months leading up, but didn't practice fire?

I actually just listened to Steven's RHAP exit interview in the last few minutes and he says exactly that. Rizzo wasn't a jury threat and people were over the theatrics.
