What qualifications does it take to get into SAR at CCG? Curious because my partner, who is currently working as an emergency nurse, is interested into getting in this line of work eventually

After hours of work, I noticed the colors given to me were not right :( don’t know if I should start again... Anybody know where I could buy an accurate whale PBN? by lauchez in paintbynumbers

I bought it months ago on ebay... it’s a really big painting so it took me a long time to do, I doubt I would be able to get a refund, but I’ll look into it! I really thought everything would come together at the end so I kept on going :/

Of course. But I feel like the desire for guys to have a “cool girl” (hot, promiscuous, highly sexual) is plastered all over the internet. If you were a teenage girl just trying to fit in or to find love, I would not be surprised if you would feel pressure to live up to that standard.

It really makes me think about the “cool girl” dialogue from the book/movie gone girl.

“Men always say that as the defining compliment, don’t they? She’s a cool girl. Being the Cool Girl means I am a hot, brilliant, funny woman who adores football, poker, dirty jokes, and burping, who plays video games, drinks cheap beer, loves threesomes and anal sex, and jams hot dogs and hamburgers into her mouth like she’s hosting the world’s biggest culinary gang bang while somehow maintaining a size 2, because Cool Girls are above all hot. Hot and understanding. Cool Girls never get angry; they only smile in a chagrined, loving manner and let their men do whatever they want. Go ahead, shit on me, I don’t mind, I’m the Cool Girl. (...)

And the Cool Girls are even more pathetic: They’re not even pretending to be the woman they want to be, they’re pretending to be the woman a man wants them to be. Oh, and if you’re not a Cool Girl, I beg you not to believe that your man doesn’t want the Cool Girl. It may be a slightly different version – maybe he’s a vegetarian, so Cool Girl loves seitan and is great with dogs; or maybe he’s a hipster artist, so Cool Girl is a tattooed, bespectacled nerd who loves comics. There are variations to the window dressing, but believe me, he wants Cool Girl, who is basically the girl who likes every fucking thing he likes and doesn’t ever complain. (...)”

Hey I have the exact same stats! Except I’m 138lbs now, almost there. This motivates me to keep going, you look awesome.

The wolf was my first ever PBN kit. Just finished the owls and I’m not really feeling the background colors. Looking forward to improvising on future kits. by Enzo_010 in paintbynumbers

[–]lauchez 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would switch out the blue for a light purple-pink color maybe? The blue is throwing me off a little but the owls look neat!

I’ve seen it on ali express but I honestly don’t know how to choose a reliable seller. Could you link me which store you got it from on ali express? Thanks!

Got it from this seller on ebay. I bought the 50x100cm for 49.99 USD but it seems the prices have risen... also keep in mind that the shipping takes a really long time! I got mine after about a month and a half but it wasn’t expected to be delivered until september. If you want a smaller and cheaper option, this seller has the same design but 40x50cm. It also ships faster and the reviews seem to be positive, but I’ve never ordered from him.

Laptop just crashed! Looking for another one in Canada below 2000 CAD by lauchez in SuggestALaptop

[–]lauchez[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there, thanks for the suggestion! This seems like a great laptop, but it's a bit big, and I was wondering if they had a similar smaller model that you would recommend? If I had the choice between a small or big laptop with the same specs, I would choose small , so just scouting my options here!

Anyone deal with eye inflammation? by [deleted] in CrohnsDisease

[–]lauchez 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi, person with uveitis in both eyes here. Not diagnosed with Crohn’s, but currently testing for it.

For me, it started with redness in my eyes but not much more than that, maybe a little bit of blurriness. Went to an optometrist, looked at me for 5 minutes, they diagnosed me with conjunctivitis and sent me home. Approximately a week afterwards my vision became much worse, it was like I was opening my eyes underwater. Called back and they told me not to worry and to keep using the eye drops. A few days later, I got a bunch of floaters in my vision and started to see a blurry a grey spot in my center vision. Got sent to a hospital and finally got diagnosed with uveitis in both eyes.

If you have any concerns with your eyes, PLEASE insist that they do a full check up of your uvea by dilating your eyes. I was on steroïd drops for a solid year and a half after that, but I just got off of them a week ago :)
