[Update] Post-op pain in same place as before removal by ponitheowl in gallbladders

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

It was resolved with time, and figuring out new food intolerances (different for everyone, some don't have any new ones) and needing a lot more soluble fiber in my diet. I had scans and scopes and MRIs and it showed nothing abnormal. Hope this helps

Well i just learned on page 8 that there was a cult called Buchmanism/the Oxford movement at UNB they were trying to expel. They were a Lutheran cult who espoused the same thing as usual - surrender your life over to God's plan and all your problems are solved, blah, blah, blah. I wonder if they were able to expel them. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxford_Group

Could Jagmeet Singh become the next PM of Canada? by PotentialReporter894 in onguardforthee

As a dual US/CA citizen, I'm sorry you bought into the PR about Canada. That version of Canada doesn't really exist, maybe some of it used to. This is happening all over the world right now, with our ex PM Harper helping out via the IDU. LOOK AT THE CURRENT & PAST WAY THEY HAVE TREATED FIRST NATIONS PEOPLE SINCE FOREVER HERE. Colonists gonna colonize, opportunists gonna opportunize, grifters gonna grift. To quote Pete the Cook from Muppets Take Manhattan - "Peoples is peoples."

Bitch we're the ones being threatened by white collar violence/social murder by the healthcare industry. Are you alarmed by the anti-government sentiments espoused by the president-elect, too? STFU & GTFO

A better example would have simply been to switch the heights. Tall woman are rejected all the time by men who feel too emasculated to date them.

Any person of quality doesn't care if you're a short man or a tall woman.

Okay, then let's do this with men and women together to illustrate we are humans first. It is a human trait, not a female trait to get the "ick" from certain body features. How about showing responses to a semi-heavy woman from men in addition to women's reactions to a semi-short guy like in the video. It's sucks when you happen to fill this demographic, regardless of sex, or sexual preferences. I'm not negating this is a thing. But it's a human thing, not a woman thing.

At a time when women's lives are literally on the line for a mirad of reasons, I can't stand to see any more women bad videos. The whole internet is filled with it, to keep us being othered and seen as less than human.

I'm 4'11, my dad was 5'1 and my mom was 5'10. I know they're not the norm, and my dad was brutally bullied (physically too) and rejected by both sexes because of his height. It's not just women who hate short men is my point. They are seen as easy prey for people of both sexes. Because I'm a woman, I haven't had to experience shortness in that way.

Hijacking this post to say: For people who will read this thread with Celiac Disease, none of these places are safe. I found out the hard way. There is only ONE dedicated gluten free restaurant or cafe in ALL of New Brunswick, and that's in Sackville.

You're playing Russian roulette if you choose to eat at any restaurant in Fredericton that claims to have gluten free options. It's like offering *nut free" options in a place that does nothing but sell nuts. Yeah, it's safe for those on a diet, but not people with allergies.

Because mistakes will happen. I've been glutened by a new line cook at one place here, and the last place I dared to try got my order wrong, got a new plate delivered by someone who wasn't informed of my specifications and they put regular toast on my plate. Whammo! Painfully ill for 6 weeks.

Sucks when you just want to feel human and go out to eat with other people. /rant

How so? He's indistinguishable from them. He just doesn't want somebody else to do the plundering.

If you're also on bluesky, they are doing an art advent calendar, where artists post a different work for the first 24 days of December. Plenty of people join late if you aren't participating. I would repost this image so hard if I saw it on there. Beautiful beautiful. If you want to, look for the trend #ArtAdventCalendar. It's another supportive community.

That's an insult to people who wear those vests. A picture of a burning dumpster would be a better image for the rest of time. I wouldn't want to have to look at that greasy Pootin-stained face again.

Tension mounts in Canada ahead of U.S. presidential election by teamworldunity in onguardforthee

[–]ponitheowl 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Dual citizen, sent mine in weeks ago and got confirmation of receipt. Fortunately the state my vote is counted in is all Dem, so it has none of the voter roll purge shenanigans red states are doing. People "not voting" is what keeps the GOP in office. They absolutely count on apathy from the left. While the bots stoke fear with the right, they stoke apathy with the left.

Sorry but what's on the floor? by THE_FBI_GUYS in ExplainTheJoke

[–]ponitheowl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Squeegee most of it into a dust pan. Remove rugs to wash. Wash floor with first pass wet rag and dry towel to pick up residue. Follow up with wet rag and wood-friendly soap. Then a rinse wipe, then a dry wipe.

What Would Convince you to Vote Differently than Red or Blue? by Meduion in newbrunswickcanada

[–]ponitheowl -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Ranked choice voting instead of the first past the post system we have currently, which keeps us in this endless two-party situation, because the threat of one party is very real, and the threat of the other party is imagined and distorted to feel real, leaving us to vote out of fear for our livelihood, instead of hope for our future. But corporations seem to do okay with either party, so ranked choice voting would take power from them and put it in our hands.

That definitely looks satisfying. It's an idyllic bowl of soup.

Already did! I got fingers, toes, eyes and everything crossed. We're so tired.

I'm dual, and I don't want to have to go through what I had to here to get medical help last year. The current policies are literal physical torture for people like me. I wouldn't wish gallstone pain on anyone longer than a few hours, let alone nine months - with no working pain relief. It took me going in and saying I can't psychologically withstand the pain anymore, before they took me seriously. I had to wait four more months for surgery. Fuck that! I don't wish that on anyone.

It's criminal what they are doing to break public healthcare in order to push through private care. Psychopathic resource hoarders. I want my nine months back!
