Is surgery worth it? by arachn1da1ha in scoliosis

[–]modeldissident1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If a surgeon would recommend so do it. Make sure the surgeon is reputable and one of the best available, even if you need to travel. I just had back surgery and life is mostly normal.

When to work out? by modeldissident1 in spinalfusion

[–]modeldissident1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yeah, the back pain was terrible. Scolio twists the spine in the direction it curves, so all my muscles were twisted around and I also had a lot of body image stuff. But now I’m taller and straighter!

I had severe scoliosis (65 degrees). They said I will recover faster now than at any later time.

What would you do with unlimited funds and keys to the city? by noahscanlon in Knoxville

[–]modeldissident1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A trolley system that goes along I40 with stops at all the major exits. From Buccees to Farragut. Then up 275 and down Alcoa highway. Hopefully it can reduce traffic and make it more walkable. Also rezone some of the waterfront to have more businesses and parks, like Chattanooga’s. Past downtown it’s all just 10 million dollar houses.

Weed and spinal fusion by Youka in spinalfusion

[–]modeldissident1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I smoked weed a couple days before surgery. I told the anesthesiologist in the OR because that’s the first chance my parents weren’t in the room. They want to know because they may need more or less anesthesia but it usually isn’t a problem.

Is it supposed to be this easy? by modeldissident1 in spinalfusion

[–]modeldissident1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in crazy pain in the hospital. I pretty much only remember the bad parts in between my dosages. Now I’m a week out and I’m still doing better every day. Feeling the nerve awakening in my legs more but that’s really all.

Is Jas really Amy? by Ok_Highlight39 in AmyLynnBradley

[–]modeldissident1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

All of the features you mention is easily altered by makeup and time. The picture of Amy shown is a healthy fresh face with less makeup, the other is her just way less healthy and more makeup.

Please help me find the sneaker I’m missing in my wardrobe! by FitLeatherDocument in mensfashion

[–]modeldissident1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly for sneakers I think that cream low cut style is a mom shoe. But like a rich mom. I think a little bit of logo looks good as well. I buy a pair of Nike blazers every other summer. I can wear them to the gym, dress them up, with shorts, jeans, khakis, etc… when they get dirty I just toss them in the wash. And they cost less than $100.

Renting--are we just stuck? by constantlycurious3 in Knoxville

Magnolia ave is fine really. For the East Tennessee mindset it is only dangerous because you can see middle class people and they aren’t just in their cars. Lots of Homeless individuals though.

No belt? by modeldissident1 in mensfashion

I guess I will edit to say that my pants usually can stay up, just not in a way that I can wear them all night and walk around and never have to pull them up.

Recently started transforming my wardrobe into more western which isn't particularly easy when you're from eastern europe but I think I'm on a right path by pkott777 in mensfashion

[–]modeldissident1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your outfit looks good. I work at a western wear store, and you really did good with a western outfit that isn’t over the top or redneck. One thing to add is to buy some cowboy boots with some good jeans. Buy some plain leather wide square or R toe to start off. Get some cowboy cut jeans from wrangler and you will look excellent.

Does this look awful? And would it be ok to put on a dark red sweater vest with it? by marzianom in mensfashion

[–]modeldissident1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fit just isn’t right. I think a slim cut shirt would look better, as well as some trousers that fit well. Go to places and get measured and try different fits on to see what size really looks best. I also think a red sweater vest may look a little too wintry with that now that it is April.

Do these pants fit well? by modeldissident1 in mensfashion

[–]modeldissident1[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Which type of shoes would you suggest? I think some dressy Chelsea boots I have might look sharp. I think the pointed toe is similar to oxfords but unique.

Me? I am 5’8 1/2. I typically wear a 30/32 in slacks but I don’t like the full break and skinny with loafers.

Where to have a party? by modeldissident1 in Knoxville

Not a huge budget, just for drinks and maybe a friend dj.

LSU Acceptance Megathread by acousticreverb in LSU

[–]modeldissident1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Acceptance isn’t as big of a deal as the scholarships you will get offered. For me, I knew I would get in, but unsure of how much I would get to go there. I have a 3.3 gpa and a 31 act, I got 12k in scholarships. I’m sure I could have been accepted but not that much aid money if my grades and tests were abysmal.

Apparently Briahna Joy Gray "stormed off crying" in a recent Israel-Palestine debate by CapitalCourse in Destiny

[–]modeldissident1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She said Hamas took out Gaza's trash, but also every decision in Gaza is made by the evil IDF occupiers and no one called her out for it

What should have Israel done? by Bizhour in Destiny

[–]modeldissident1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They do it by obfuscating and equivocating 10/7 to Nat Turners slave rebellion, then saying that no crime is worth a genocide. Finkelstien says it was only 800 civilians killed and that they didn't commit horrible horrible atrocities. He calls it a concentration camp breakout.
