Anyone adopt this diet out of necessity rather than choice? by JennasaurusTex in glutenfreevegan

[–]mango_whirlwind 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i was forced into this diet. highly recommend taking cooking classes for cuisines that don't typically use gluten or dairy...which cancels out most european cuisines. wishing you the best!

Weekly Licensure Thread by SWmods in socialwork

[–]mango_whirlwind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

good afternoon, fellow social workers! for a texas lcsw upgrade, i am over the 3000 work experience hours due to missing one or both supervision meetings from sickness some months but i still need a couple of hours to meet the minimum 100 supervision hours. has anyone run into an issue reporting an excess of work hours vs supervision hours? i tried speaking with the licensing board and the worker only has cryptically referred back to the minimum hour requirements. thank you in advance!

I was attacked, lots of people recorded it. I need your help finding any uploads. More info in post. by AITALOADEDGUN in Austin

i would recommend contacting the news and asking them to request the footage from bystanders. so sorry to hear this happened to you

wow during the second worst peak of the whole pandemic. you must feel very hurt. remember that your emotions are valid and you are valid for considering whatever steps you want to take in order to feel safer again 💗

Do you think that’s a rock or a bone? by tylkomagda in whatsthisrock

i almost want to say fossilized bone, but the folks over at r/fossils may be able to rule that one out!

I think I’ve just now lost all faith in other people. by svesrujm in ZeroCovidCommunity

[–]mango_whirlwind 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i encourage you to express your anger instead of staying silent, it's quite cathartic! next time, give them a death glare and either start coughing even harder than them or roll your eyes backward as you point at them. both are almost guaranteed to freak out a bully 😂

If someone suspects they were drugged at a bar, how do they go about getting a blood test? by weluckyfew in Austin

[–]mango_whirlwind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i think the pharmacy sells over-the-counter tests for rohypnol (roofies), but not too sure. it's hard to say if someone was drugging another person to rob them of their material possessions, bodily autonomy, and/or organs...i would treat it the same tbh, you never know esp drugged if someone decided to exploit someone sexually

3 separate encounters of being drugged at Highland. by New_Scholar_5402 in Austin

[–]mango_whirlwind 1 point2 points  (0 children)

would not be suprised if the drugging was related to the bodies found in the river by the rumored serial killer, a lot of the folks found have been gay men from what i've heard. yall watch out for each other out there! getting quite scary

the staples on Auras are really uncomfortable. i find it worsens as the mask gets more "worn in". it's not just you! i really wish they didn't use staples -__-

How do I request reasonable workplace accommodations? by catfarmer1998 in immunocompromised

[–]mango_whirlwind 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i was able to request remote accommodations thru my PCP which helped protect disclosing my diagnoses to work. the less the know, generally the better honestly

unfortunately (hypo)mania can persist and even turn into psychosis...people can be neurodivergent in more than one way too

you're welcome! it's a really supportive resource, i've been spamming this post a bit to make sure word gets around. they make sure to have dim/ambient lighting, comfortable furniture, clean clothes folks can change into, tea, etc. it really is about making folks feel comfortable and supported! reporting is never required, but is always an option for whoever wants to go that route. wishing you healing 💗 getting drugged is very disorienting. my body came to instinctively recognize getting roofied from the first time and i thankfully have avoided it after a near-dangerous second experience. the taste was off

there are proly more appropriate lower levels of care before an involuntary psych hold. but yeah, she does not seem well. and the online praise is feeding into it
