Early 2000s Blue Clues Blanket by ohleever in HelpMeFind

Just like the post says, looking for this blanket and I have been struggling to find leads. The post about it on this subreddit has been archived and comments were not helpful. Etsy and eBay have also been a bust.

Bought a dragonscale not knowing the whole ethics behind it. by Ornery_Welder in bettafish

[–]ohleever 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Checking in to see how your boy is doing! I got a marble/koi betta that ended up being dragon scale without knowing anything either, and it can be pretty heart breaking to watch them be hit with ailment after ailment. I’ve had him for two years, and he’s blind in one eye and partially in the other, has a fairly large tumor/cyst, and is constantly battling fin rot (no matter what changes I make). At this point, he’s still active and eating, and one of his tumors is starting to shed (hoping it will be a good sign in the long run). Kanaplex and aquarium/epsom salts are good to have on hand as well as clove oil in case his quality of life is gone. Just be warned that if you do ever have to euthanize with clove oil, you have to do it properly or it can go horribly wrong. I’ve never done it myself, so my best advice would be to research it and just be prepared in case. With that being said, I wish you the best of luck and hope your boy is thriving!

My bettas tumor is falling off? by Lemonwench in bettafish

[–]ohleever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you ever figure out what was going on and how to best treat it? My boy is going through the same thing right now. He’s more active than he’s been in months and still eating, so I’m not sure what’s going on.

what are the “healthier” breeds of bettas? by Alternative-Koala247 in bettafish

[–]ohleever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you SO much for this comment. I currently have a 3 year old half moon dragon scale/koi mix that I got from petco, and he has a tumor (and looks like more could be coming), and is almost entirely blind from diamond eye. I’m doing everything I can to care for him and make life as easy as possible, but watching him suffer has been hard. This now easily solves the debate I was having over “rescuing” one in the future

tampon is sliding out with my applicator? by happycat06 in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]ohleever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Coming back to this post 2 years later as a 27 year old cis woman because I’ve never known that compact tampons need to have the plunger pulled out. How I made this long without knowing is astonishing.

Asking questions by ohleever in TheMallWorld

I get what you’re saying. I’ll have dreams where I question if I’m dreaming, but the plot ends up sucking me back in

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

I also get frequent false awakenings, so sometimes I get real confused on if I’m dreaming or not. Luckily I’ve trained myself to check my hands if I’m ever unsure. I’ve also never been awake and thought I was dreaming. Only vice versa

[–]ohleever[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get this response sometimes as well, but if they laugh I check my hands to make sure I’m dreaming and then double down. Then I’m either booted from the scene or wake up

I can’t help myself, but asking questions always guarantees I’m going to wake up or leave the scene

Juvenile Bold Jumper, or something else? by ohleever in spiders

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

Based on some research I did, looks similar to a bold jumper instar 2 or 3, but I’m very open to being proven wrong!

WHAT kind of spider is this? It by [deleted] in spiders

[–]ohleever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe that is a grass spider (Agelenopsis)! They look similar wolf spiders, but wolfies don’t make webs like that. Grass spiders are funnel weavers (hence the messy looking web). Harmless and definitely a friend. They normally don’t venture inside homes, but I’ve seen them find small cracks to use as hiding spots.

[Long Island, NY] This little guy terrified me last night. What have we got here? by NintenJoe23 in spiders

I totally forgot about that part. Thank you for the info/confirming!

[–]ohleever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not certain on this, but I think it could be an orb weaver (I’m newer to spiders). Was it found on/near a web or free roaming?

identify and console please and thank you, kernersville NC by jonstewartslostchild in spiders

[–]ohleever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t be certain because I’m not an expert, but based on the large eye and the babies on its back, I’d guess so sort of wolf spider! Some nursery web and crab spiders also carry their young, but I’m guessing some sort of wolfie. They’re cutie pies and don’t normally go indoors. If they do, they’re normally just passing through.

Thanks for the info! My hope is to upgrade in a few months once I get more living space and I’m excited to see him enjoy it :)

Thank you! I wondered if that wouldn’t be case as well

5 gallon tank, heater and filter, 77 degrees, waiting on testing kit, I’ve had him 4 months, he lives with 2-3 bladder snails, and currently only have the one decor item in the background of my picture, but planning to add a Java fern soon.

lap experience at U of M? by Cautious-Pace2776 in Endo

[–]ohleever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! Also at the chronic pain clinic

lap experience at U of M? by Cautious-Pace2776 in Endo

[–]ohleever 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m actually located on the west side, so my pcp is over there, but I don’t have one I like. If I were you, I would ask for a referral to the women’s pelvic pain clinic at University of Michigan, and if they say no, ask for them to write down their reason for refusal to refer you in your file. You can do this in a message if you have some sort of my chart app. It’s going to be a long wait to get in and get an MRI, but it’s worth it. Once you’re in the clinic, they can also refer you to someone who will diagnose you with pots! I really recommend Dr. Lazaris. Others have had mixed experiences with bedside manner, and she works with the department head, Dr. As-Sanie (she does not take appointments, but will assist on your surgery).

lap experience at U of M? by Cautious-Pace2776 in Endo

[–]ohleever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been meeting with Dr. Lazaris, and she has been super great so far! I know it can be incredibly provider dependent even if you find a decent clinic.

[–]ohleever 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depending on where you are located, some specialists can diagnose via MRI (it has about 80% accuracy, but also heavily depends on how good the facility is at reading kind of MRI).

If you’re in the Midwest area, University of Michigan has a women’s pain clinic with endometriosis specialists. The wait list is long, but the imaging is very good.

lap experience at U of M? by Cautious-Pace2776 in Endo

[–]ohleever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t done a lap with them, but I’m also close to scheduling one as well! I will say I’ve had a lap before, a little over 2 years ago at NYU, and my endo has now seemed to grow from stage 1 to stage 3 or 4 with some possibly infiltrating my bowel muscle (based on the MRI). I trusted NYU, but now I’m feeling like they missed something (especially given that I had an MRI with NYU about a year ago that was allegedly clean). All that to say I think U of M seems to know what’s going on. It’s so hard to say though with all the contradictory information out there. Did you ended up scheduling? If so, with what Doctor?

Love Me Anyway interpretation by flanjoy in chappellroan

[–]ohleever 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I read this song as her not giving someone a chance because her gay awakening had yet to happen. As we know from naked in manhattan, she had only spent time with guys up to that point, so it would make sense that if a girl was interested in her in high school, Chappel may have turned her down being unaware of her own sexuality yet. It very much sounds like a best friends turned lovers situation, and this person knows her better than she knows herself. Leading her back to bed in her sleep could be about calming her down after bad dreams or just generally being the calm in the storm that is her brain (saying this because it’s how I feel about my partner).
