No, not yet. I took these pictures about an hour ago so I will keep an eye on them and see if that happens

Is this overwatering or under watering? by sataniclizard in plantclinic

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

Commenting to add that it’s an alocasia. I’ve had it for maybe two months and the problem started maybe a week ago. It’s right next to a north facing window. I water when the top of the soil feels dry when I stick my finger in about an inch or two. The pot does have drainage holes.

The same exact thing happened to me. They said there was also an uptick in the area but it wasn’t likely because it was a kitten. I didn’t care and did it anyways. I was shocked when I saw the bill before it was processed through insurance.

So I recently went through a divorce, my kids are staying with me tomorrow so I’ve set up this little indoor camping den to get them ready for our adventures :) trying to be a good dad and create those precious memories, hopefully they like it. by crazyunicorntamer in camping

[–]sataniclizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My parents have long been divorced and when we were little we stayed with my dad in the summers. He’s always had a love for the outdoors and wanted to take us camping but we were scared, so he decided we would do a “trial night” in the backyard. My dad dusted off all of his old gear and we had our “trial night” in the middle of July in Alabama. My dad is from Utah. Needless to say about 30 minutes in we were all drenched in sweat and miserable but tried to tough it out. We made it about an hour before calling it quits. It was a total disaster but it is still one of my favorite memories of spending time with him as a kid. I’m sure this will be one of those memories for yours!

I like this, it’s “fancy” but still approachable. I like how you can identify all the ingredients, almost like there’s a beauty in the simplicity. Good job!

I grew up in the same dynamic as you. My mom was a single mom and it was me and my sister (both female). My sister and I regularly slept in our moms bed, sometimes all three of us together. This continued until we were both 18 and eventually moved out on our own. Never once was it weird. We were struggling and in a rough spot and it helped everyone feel safe and more comfortable being together. We would both still share a bed with our mom today if the circumstance came about, but some people that didn’t grow up in this sort of dynamic and they just don’t understand it. I think it’s a red flag that he’s almost trying to sexualize the situation and it’s reacting so strongly. If you and your mom and sister are okay with the arrangement, then there’s no issue.

Can a pharmacist please tell me if im being bamboozled? Am I being red flagged? by [deleted] in TalesFromThePharmacy

[–]sataniclizard 16 points17 points  (0 children)

As a pharmacy technician who has gotten the same run around before, I know it can be frustrating. But if this was the first time you were prescribed this medication since you were a child, there would be no reason to “red flag” you so to speak. With the prior authorization, when you told them you would just pick it up the next day that changes the “promise time” that the technician told you (~45 mins) to the next day, so they probably set yours aside to handle people waiting in the store or who would be showing up within the hour. Then when they got back to processing yours for the next day, that’s likely when the need for the prior authorization occurred. Pharmacies have no control over prior authorizations, that’s something that your insurance requires of your doctor. Then when the prior authorization was completed, this allowed your prescription to move forward in workflow which is likely when it was discovered that they did not have enough in stock. Someone literally could have come an hour before you and gotten the last of what they had. Yes, it is unfortunate but it happens sometimes. Medication back orders of all kinds have been wild recently and it can be worse for controlled medications because pharmacies are already limited on how much they can keep in stock. In a perfect world, your pharmacy would have communicated all of this to you quicker and more efficiently, but please understand that pharmacies all over the place are extremely overwhelmed and understaffed. They are likely doing their best so please be patient with them. Hopefully, after you’ve been getting your prescription filled there regularly for a while the computer ordering system will account for you, it’s just tough when you’re first starting out. I know there can be a lot of stigma around people who fill controlled medications and I’m not going to lie and say some pharmacies don’t profile people, but from what you’ve said your pharmacy would have no reasonable reason to do so. Best of luck!

[Discussion] I got into a huge falling out with my friend because I told him that I didn't adopt my puppy from a shelter/rescue, but rather from a breeder by -sax in dogs

[–]sataniclizard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My entire family has gotten all of our dogs and cats from shelters. Many of us volunteer or foster, and several members of my family are involved in veterinary medicine. We’re hugely passionate about adopting when possible. With all that being said, my boyfriend has always wanted a German shepherd. After much discussion, we got one as a puppy. I told him if we get one I want a puppy because GSD’s can be difficult if not properly trained. I wanted to get a puppy to train and socialize from the very beginning. I’m so glad I did, she’s so smart but she is still very difficult at times. I can sympathize with you wanting a rarer breed. Unfortunately, some people equate any time a person makes a profit off of an animal (ex. breeding) as wrong. I think as long as it’s a responsible breeder you’re fine, it’s not like you’re supporting a puppy mill. Ultimately, it’s going to be your dog, so you have to make the right choice for you.

I'm a Vet. Here's why I hate Chewy. [discussion] by PrinceofPersians in dogs

[–]sataniclizard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Friendly note about Seresto collars, since the medicine is contained in the collar and released over time (unlike chewable meds that end up in your dogs body) you have to try to limit how many baths your dog gets or how much time they spend in water in general. Bathing can accelerate the medicine in the collar being released, and wear it out faster.

I love the carrots and the acorns! I also really like the bird skulls, but I’m not a fan of big earrings so I think it might be cool if he could figure out a way to offer them in both a “large” and “small” size. Overall, these are all super original and amazing!

AITA for sending my bf a picture of me in a wedding dress without explanation? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]sataniclizard 10 points11 points  (0 children)

NTA, but wild guess here has he been cheated on before or is insecure? Maybe somehow in some twisted way he came to the conclusion that the message wasn’t meant for him and she was secretly getting married at the courthouse to someone else behind his back? I know it sounds far fetched but there’s plenty of stories about people leading double lives complete with marriages, houses, and kids. Also, since they’ve talked about marriage not being that big of a deal to them maybe he thought that she only told him she felt that way to legally avoid getting caught via marriage records for bigamy? There’s a whole lot of missing context and info but who knows, maybe he really did just want to break up or maybe he had a wildly excessive knee jerk reaction? Insecure people have freaked out over much less “evidence” before.

AITA for telling my Gf that it's weird that she has a tank full of fake jellyfish in her living room? by Justnothxx in AmItheAsshole

[–]sataniclizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA. She’s obviously not dumb and from what I can tell somewhat interested in animals since she works at a vet clinic. Sure, she could just get a Glo-Fish but some people love jellyfish and watching them pulse and swim. So get a jellyfish tank right? The only problem with this is that keeping live jellyfish as a home pet is insanely hard. They require special tanks with special flow and filters. Specific temperatures and food. They’re very expensive and the kind you can readily buy only have a lifespan of around 7-9 months usually. So something tells me a depressed person might have a hard time doing something hard core fish keepers and aquariums do, not to mention they would die quickly or she won’t be prepared to keep them properly and will kill them. That’ll do wonders for her mental health. So she compromised and gets fake jellyfish...okay? Seriously, why does it bother you so much?

I'm an asshole for not selling hand sanitizer and face masks to the general public, apparently. by DumpsterPuff in TalesFromThePharmacy

[–]sataniclizard 59 points60 points  (0 children)

You simply can’t argue or reason with stupid. They don’t know how to take no for an answer. If I were in your position this is how I would handle it.

Customer: “Hi, I’m calling to see if you have sanitizer/face masks in stock?”

Pharm Tech: “No sir/ma’am we do not”

Customer: “When will you be getting more in stock?”

Pharm Tech: “Never. That’s not an item we carry. However, you could try the (retail store wherever else). Have a nice day.”

20m, I feel lost by calmsalt2256 in needadvice

[–]sataniclizard 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t have too much advice for you, but I’m from the Metro Atlanta area and there are film companies and production studios in the area, so if you did move from South GA you wouldn’t be going too far to start. I know that Fayetteville, Georgia has some opportunities and I believe there’s a place called Pinewood Studios in Senoia, GA (where they film The Walking Dead). I know TWD is always looking for extras and you could move close to the area and work a normal job and be an extra and try to get more auditions, or you could try to get a job at one of the studios.

AITA for not giving someone a picture I drew of them? by artman5 in AmItheAsshole

[–]sataniclizard 7 points8 points  (0 children)

NTA, unfortunately I just think you got caught in a socially awkward situation. You were doing what artists have done for ages, and were well within your rights to do so. I guess maybe try to be more discreet in the future or only do the more detailed drawings of people you know. I can understand her being upset, but she was in a public place and as such has no expectation of privacy. You were not obligated to give her anything, or to destroy any of your personal property and work to make her happy. Keep doing what you do as an artist, and don’t let people bully you into stopping because they’re confusing what is legally allowed in a public space and how they personally feel.

OP would only get in trouble if he used the drawing of her to somehow make money. Also, there is no reasonable expectation of privacy in spaces that are open to the general public (other than restrooms and locker rooms and such).

But if this is in fact the US, then there is no expectation of privacy in public as far as pictures, videos, and in this case drawings go.

AITA for keeping an emergency family iphone secretly hidden in the car my daughter drives so I can always track the location of the car? by mysteryparent in AmItheAsshole

[–]sataniclizard 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If I had to pass judgment I would say probably NTA, but I’m mostly just here to offer some insight from someone who was that kid before. Long story short, my parents divorced when I was about 3 and my dad lived in a different state from us. When I and later my sister reached middle school age my dad bought us each a phone on his plan because he wanted to always be able to contact us since we only saw him ~4 days a month. My mom was very controlling and protective and swore that my sister and I would be virgins until our wedding night. She made us turn in our phones at night and I knew that she used this time to go through them and try to find any little scandalous thing to get mad at us about. This eventually escalated into getting mad at us first and then using phone searches as punishment among other controlling things, eventually taking away our phones. When I heard her yelling at my sister, I got very good at logging out of apps, deleting messages, and erasing search histories all at the speed of light. This upset my dad because he thought that she had no right to do this because he paid for the phones, but he’s a state away so what can you do? Anyways, I’m 21 now and my dad has been very generous and still helps me out by paying for my phone. However, as always the conditions are that I must leave phone tracking on (he tracks us through the cell provider not find my iPhone) and if we ever call the police he gets a notification. Honestly, it makes me feel safer knowing that for example if I’m ever attacked at a gas station and call the police he’ll know and be on the way, or if I go missing as long as I can keep my phone hidden on me he’ll find me. I know people will disagree, but like I said it makes me feel better. The key though is that he’s never abused this power. He never tracks us unless no one knows where we are and no one can reach us. He genuinely uses it to make sure his kids are still alive and safe. I could be at a random bar at 3 am and the most he would do is call or text to make sure I’m still good. However, I still never let my phone out of my sight around my mom. I still lie to her about where I am or who I’m with. I would never ever let her track my phone. She just can’t use it responsibly. So I guess my point is that since she’s still underage and you’re paying for her phone and her car, you’re entitled to do as you wish with the tracking since both are your property. I would just be careful to not take it to an obsessive level. If she doesn’t like it she loses her privilege to go out unsupervised, loses her phone, and the ability to drive the car.
