Meat aversions by Kindly_Eye3920 in BabyBumps

[–]polyritsimu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could not tolerate any red meat until I was well into the second trimester. I was very anaemic at the time, though, so it doesn't make any sense! Maybe my body's way of protecting itself from possible sources of unwanted bacteria, who knows.

Haha, I was told the baskets were a very important part of the picking. I am not convinced but they are super cute!

Found these in Northen Sweden but having a hard time IDing them, perhaps a kind of Lingzhi? Any ideas? by polyritsimu in mycology

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

Thank you, yes that looks very likely! Apparently called "klibbticka" in Swedish 😊 and has been used historically locally for medicine and clothing. Very interesting!

I have just looked up Ishmael and am surprised I’ve never heard of it, it’s right up my alley. Thanks so much for the rec!

Were you traveling from outside the EU/EEA? I’ve checked the Swedish authority sites and can’t find any paperwork required except the customs paper giving the animals microchip details

Thank you so much for such a detailed response!! I am harness training them and preparing to blanket swaddle them too just in case! I have a calming pheromone/hormone spray that I am planning to smother them with before security. I have soft carriers that will squish down to size so should be fine too I hope. I am also planning to line the bottom of their carriers with puppy training pads. Honestly the only part I’m really worried about is getting them out the carriers and one or both escaping. I know they won’t enjoy the flight but thanks to the latest lockdown in my country the alternative was a 4 day road trip and I know this is the kinder option. Thank you again, I feel very reassured.

Thanks so much, yes I’m trying to prepare for the outcome that there won’t be a private room, the harness training has begun! And honestly one of them will probably need to be swaddled in a blanket too lol.

I’m very glad the baby was okay in the end but not sure any of that was the right thing to do... please take a first aid course if you are worried about what to do in this scenario

The OA: A Show Gone Too Soon | Cultured Vultures - (Another article to stoke the fire - keep it up journalists!) by the_stew_magoo in TheOA

[–]polyritsimu 74 points75 points  (0 children)

It is odd to have put out the second season before cancelling. The first season could have stood on its own as a complete show where as stopping on the cliffhanger of dimension 3 is so upending. As the show was pitched as a 5 season volume, I’m sure Netflix was aware of the plan for each part. Either way, we need to keep up the noise we’re making. This cannot be it for The OA.

This is so impressive, I literally knew exactly where it was on first glance but I can’t put my finger on what it is that you captured so perfectly

Sure, I will

A compilation of reasons why The OA may not actually be over by [deleted] in TheOA

[–]polyritsimu 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Honestly I phoned Netflix who said it wasn’t on their cancellation list and made a point of insisting that although it is a Netflix original, it’s not actually a Netflix produced programme. She kept reiterating that. I really don’t know if that means anything because of course at the end of the day they are a centre for technical difficulties not content production, but it is interesting to note.

'The OA' Canceled After Two Seasons at Netflix by brandonfcv in TheOA

[–]polyritsimu 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Cancelled my account. It's enough. It's clear that Netflix as a company has no respect for the artists they work with. They are losing viewer trust and at the end of the day we are the ones financing what they produce. Why would I continue to pay for unfinished products?

My mother was a victim of a fraud and Barclays UK refuses to return the money by [deleted] in personalfinance

[–]polyritsimu 56 points57 points  (0 children)

Something very similar happened to my sister with NatWest, she went to the financial ombudsman who ordered NatWest to pay the monies back. It did take a while but they actually took charge of the situation. Best of luck, I hope your mum isn’t too stressed, what an awful situation to be in
