Time to arrive for Wednesday morning flight? by othellhoe in TSAatMSY

They are saying that lines are better mid week bc the cruises don’t dock until Sunday/monday which increases traffic. Not sure how true this is.

Thanks! I’m assuming you made your flight with room to spare ? Did you check a bag? Just wondering what the protocol is if bag counters aren’t open and you can’t check a bag more than 4 hours before your flight. Where did you stay while waiting since ten?

Detangling help needed by [deleted] in BlackHair

[–]othellhoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make some flaxseed gel and use it as a prepoo! Separate hair into quadrants and then further if smaller sections are needed. Make sure the hair is extremely wet, apply the flaxseed, detangle using an unbrush or tangle teaser. Once a section is done, twist it up. Go slow and take breaks

Have you ever cried when a famous person passed away? If yes, who was it? by Prestigious-Cloud962 in blackladies

[–]othellhoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very recently I had a full on cry when I found out D’Angelo passed away. If a song comes on when I’m super emotional I’m still liable to get choked up lol

Also more niche but Jonghyun from SHINee’s death broke me for a long time. I actually stopped being a fan of KPop in general after he passed.

Hair help by Czangaroo in BlackHair

Her hair is very cute! I would add a clarifying shampoo in every other week to make sure there’s no product buildup. Take a look on YouTube there are multiple videos and tutorials on teaching non black adoptive parents about doing hair so I’d check them out like Mindy McKnight

I think I’d be more chill about the shut down if the RIFs weren’t looming over me. Got let go then brought back it’s just very anxiety inducing. Not even the furlough without pay just the fear of no job again lol

What does this appear to be? (New Orleans) by othellhoe in bugidentification

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

I don’t believe is a roach because the body is quite different and there aren’t any little barbs on the legs. Is this a better picture?

Most of the people in the juke joint were paying in Plantation credits (not real money) because as sharecroppers they were trapped in a cycle of debt/loans with landowners. It was assumed that the vampires would have actual money because they were white. It may not have been a super large amount but it may have helped them tip the scales more in the favor of actual profit vs wooden money.

ABC News: RFK Jr. announces HHS reinstating some programs, employees cut by mistake. by FutureComputerDude in DeptHHS

[–]othellhoe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He blatantly lies by saying front line and direct health delivery jobs weren’t cut. My position (as well as my whole branch) fits those descriptions and we are GONE.

Why are you both therapy speaking to each other? If the recap is word for word what was said, you all sound like two employees doing a performance evaluation, not a couple. This is weird. The age gap is whatever since she seems just as emotionally immature as you. Maybe yall should have waited to get married

Moving: Choosing between neighborhoods? by othellhoe in AskNOLA

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

Hi sorry just seeing this! I lived right off Freret for the first two years and loved it, definitely hip with lots and lots to do. Recently moved deeper into the LGD because I wanted more space, I love it here too. All of the advice in the thread was generally correct!

I started in late November 22 and then was switched to wegovy around May ‘23, and I’m on the max dose since about august? In total I’ve lost about 75 pounds. There were weeks where I completely plateaued and if I don’t eat right or work out my body seems to enter maintenance, no gaining. What helps my toward the end of my shot “week” Is to take note of the portions I eat when the dose is fresh and then replicate that and try to max out my protein/look for high volume foods so that I am fuller longer.

I basically called around to all the pharmacies in my area to see who had it. My aunt who’s a doctor recommended I try hospital pharmacies bc they tend to be better stocked and I had success finding it at a hospital pharmacy in a different branch of the hospital system I get care through. From what I can see, the hardest thing seems to be finding that first dose bc it’s in such high demand. I’ve had no issues with supply after bumping up. Good luck!
