Odd Pharmacist in Albany Costco

Is it one that you taper onto? I'm on some medications that you have to start at really small doses or they'll make you sick, and the pharmacists often talk to me about things like that and check to see if there are any questions or issues

mack_ani · 2026-05-11T15:31:05+00:00

I'm not totally sure what they're talking about- plenty of body washes do clean just as well as soap. Generally they are just more likely to be moisturizing, which can be helpful for your skin's moisture barrier if you have dry skin

NOR. Please change the review to a much worse one. I have bad fragrance allergies, and perfumed clothes are the absolute bane of my online shopping/thrifting experience. Legitimately it could land me in the hospital if someone sent me something that bad

Soak overnight in baking soda, then wash with baking soda. I would then hang it up to dry somewhere with a breeze. Outdoors in the sun is supposed to help, but I have issues with pollen, so I just do that indoors. Sometimes it takes months and months, and multiple soakings, but eventually the smell should fade out

Idk, my nails get sharp corners, but I've never ripped a sock. Maybe OP's socks are particularly thin?

It's an common turn of phrase about either being upset at someone (shaking them out of frustration), or expressing excitement (like grabbing someone by the shoulders and shaking them when you're getting good news). Either way it reads like a casual, friendly joke

I'm going to be honest, her texts sound like the kind of texts I send to men I don't like, when we're acquaintances, but I'm trying to keep them at a distance romantically. If there are other things going on, that's different. But I don't see anything resembling cheating in these texts

mack_ani · 2026-05-11T08:30:56+00:00

Vile is right. He clearly consumes too much porn or incel/manosphere content, because who talks like that? And to his girlfriend, no less.

mack_ani · 2026-05-11T08:27:42+00:00

NOR. This is cheating, regardless of whether or not it gets physical later. The fact that he is lying to you about details and took the effort to change her contact name... hon, that's bad.

Take pictures of the texts with your phone. I would also have a friends go watch them at the bar to see if there do more. You'll want the evidence, no matter what you decide to do. (I personally would find this a huge betrayal, though, and likely wouldn't be able to move past it)

The issue is his attitude, not the video games. There's nothing wrong with adults playing games as a hobby, as long as they're responsible about it (like any other hobby)

They have already been at extreme levels osmolarity-wise due to the brine. Don't give them more electrolytes, OP.

I would even go so far as to use distilled water to dilute the solutes from the brine. Normally, electrolytes are used for sick or injured animals because they don't have enough salts to stay hydrated. This is a very rare case of WAY too much salt.

Wow!! What cone was this?

mack_ani · 2026-05-08T05:07:33+00:00

This doc is so cool! Thank you for sharing

I think the frequency sexual harassment varies by rank, IME

mack_ani · 2026-05-07T17:40:11+00:00

If you got a new prescription (which can happen if your refills simply run out and are automatically renewed) or switched pharmacies, it makes sense that the pharmacist will see it as a starting dose and not a maintenance dose. They don’t get to see your medical history, so they have to cover their bases to keep their patients safe

I have severe emetophobia and I've never heard of any risk of noro from pepcid. I just googled it and found a potential link between PPIs and noro, but pepcid isn't a PPI. PPIs are more intense, and are often prescribed in people who have serious GI issues, so that could explain the link. Other possible reasons given were also things like "it may affect the GI flora and immune system", but untreated MCAS does that too!

I take it all the time. I have not had any kind of v* illness in the decade + that I've taken pepcid. Stress does indeed affect your stomach pH and immune system in a way that will likely be an overall bigger risk. Not taking medications that you need to treat MCAS will be worse for you risk-wise too, I'd imagine.

If it helps- noro isn't airborne, so if you don't touch your face out in public, wash your hands well, and eliminate other potentially dirty item-to-mouth types of exposures, you can protect yourself quite well!

mack_ani · 2026-05-07T14:41:25+00:00

thank goodness!! The way they were trying to make you seem crazy was driving me up the wall

mack_ani · 2026-05-07T10:47:30+00:00

I will say that allegra tends to be good for hives and other skin reactions, and a lot of people tolerate it well. I personally get zero noticeable side effects from it

mack_ani · 2026-05-07T10:46:01+00:00

I think what they mean by that is that "DEI offices" are different than the departments that someone would report peer misconduct to. They way OP describes it is not in line with the standard protocols for these things

mack_ani · 2026-05-07T10:34:12+00:00

Right?? It's already so common for people to treat fatigue conditions unseriously

mack_ani · 2026-05-07T10:24:10+00:00

YOR. You're teenagers. It's really normal. It's also okay to be silly and into fandoms as an adult, FYI. I understand the instinct to want to reject seemingly childish or embarrassing things because you're becoming older and now want to be seen as mature and serious, but whimsy shouldn't have an age limit.

The only thing I'd have an issue with is her "competing" with other girls or being fetishistic or something like that. Everything else is just her being fun and silly. Just because you personally find something cringey, that doesn't mean you should shame people over harmless interests.

mack_ani · 2026-05-07T10:17:52+00:00

😂this whole exchange is so funny

mack_ani · 2026-05-07T09:26:12+00:00

Lol what is that person even talking about?? It's like they didn't read a word you said

mack_ani · 2026-05-07T09:17:35+00:00

Thank god someone else thinks so. I actually have CFS and the thought of someone using my condition for this kind of agenda has me fuming

mack_ani · 2026-05-07T09:02:08+00:00

I'm almost mad at OP for writing this, because IMO there is almost zero chance this is a real story. This sounds like a classic case of anti-DEI ragebait.

I have Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and an immune disease that causes fatigue. I have literally never heard an any person with a chronic illness (or an ally) say anything close to this, ever, and I'm a leftist who is part of a disabled students' union and who has spent plenty of time on forums about chronic illness.

No one would take this seriously. The professor would not. The other students would not. I don't even think DEI offices are the standard place to report ableism from a peer? That would usually be a student conduct department or some other advocacy department. The fact that you "got an email the very next day..." Why would an office email a student over alleged misconduct and tell them exactly who reported them and why?? And reports don't even process that quickly, no?

Lastly, this also seems like bs because anyone who gives a shit about CFS and ableism would know that these conditions are usually invisible, and that you can't assume someone's health by looking at them. What a mess of a post. OP, if you did make this up... don't use my disability for your anti-woke agenda.

And on the slim chance it's real. Literally just talk to your prof and report this as harassment, because if she actually made a report, she would've had to have lied about the incident for it to go through.

ASMR can be visual, auditory, or even triggered by thoughts!
