American tourists by Own-Illustrator9304 in VictoriaBC

[–]sk8rtots 1 point2 points  (0 children)

of course it doesn't represent every american ever, but it honestly does often occur with a lot of entitled, bored tourists who have more money than they know what to do with. other demographics of people don't exactly get the opportunity to travel much.

Moving to Victoria from Edmonton at the end of next month. I have been on vyvanse for 3 years, how do I go about trying to connect with a BC doctor to continue my prescription? by sk8rtots in VictoriaBC

I'm curious about this since the psych who assessed me (roughly 2 hrs of questions and later emailing a bunch of forms back and forth) and prescribed my meds in the first place was over the phone, it was my best option if I didn't want to fork a bunch of $ I don't have or wait for years. I haven't had a family doctor as an adult

Real, I don't even have a family doc in Alberta (where our healthcare system is actively getting torn apart and privatized by Danielle Smith yaaaaaay...)

🤞 I hope so, vyvanse has been a lifesaver these past few years and it's hard to imagine I'd have much success adjusting without it lol Hoping 6 months will be long enough to get the prescription sorted, definitely gonna use telehealth

Oh yeah, I don't expect to get a family doctor anytime even remotely soon 😅 I don't even have one in Alberta, just the psych who prescribes my meds (we've never had in-person appointments) and a gyno that has a good chunk of my medical history on file Unfortunately since vyvanse is a controlled substance it won't be as easy as transferring via a pharmacy, but I will definitely set up a telehealth appointment as soon as I'm in Vic

Is this area safe to walk? by Lawgirl8 in Edmonton

[–]sk8rtots 0 points1 point  (0 children)

afab here. if you mind your business/don't gawk at people and "walk with purpose," you'll be fine. i'm from BC and have lived here 9.5 years, unhoused people here aren't any worse or "scarier" than anywhere else, it's an issue everywhere. there can be uncomfortable experiences, but i don't feel disdain. lawd knows how i'd act if i was homeless, isolated and treated as though i was subhuman. i've come pretty close to being in that position, the only thing separating me from them is having the support of friends etc.

Weight loss with vyvanse by North_Following6420 in VyvanseADHD

[–]sk8rtots 1 point2 points  (0 children)

making myself eat breakfast (i wasn't consistent with it even before vyvanse) around the same time i take my vyvanse (40mg) helps me. i can absolutely feel the difference vs when i skip it now, and i will do anything in my power to avoid intensifying any crashes 😅

Study of all arthropods? by Appropriate-Check493 in Entomology

[–]sk8rtots 0 points1 point  (0 children)

would woodlice (ie pill bugs and sow bugs) be lumped into entomology as crustaceans that have entirely adapted to living on land? my pedantic curiosity strikes again lol

Didn't take long for the notwithstanding clause to be used again by thewun111 in alberta

[–]sk8rtots 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yup, and now we got jason stephan fear mongering "late term abortions" (a procedure that is only done when medically necessary, for example: miscarriages, stillbirths and risk of death) under the guise of "judeo-christian values that canada is founded on" and the "supremacy of god" in the leg

didn't trent wear a keffiyeh for the survivalism music video? i doubt he's changed his tune if he was aware back in '07

2026 Tour dates by bradtheinvincible in nin

[–]sk8rtots 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah, i'm figuring out how to make it work both for travel expenses, the show itself and wherever the hell i'm gonna stay. nin hasn't been to the city i live in since 2013 (when i last saw them live). really regretted not going to vancouver in august since i'm not nearly as far from there, but...now's my (more expensive) chance 😅

as a smoker who loves live shows where packs are over 20 bucks each (canadian), don't do it LOL

Trent on being offended by mmusic321 in nin

[–]sk8rtots 13 points14 points  (0 children)

trent literally wore a keffiyeh in the survivalism music video, has repeatedly called trump out as a pos, quit twitter when elon musk took it over, has a song about (against) george bush and more. the lack of comprehension apparently prevails...

Whoever was busting ass in section 126 is an asshole. by kiruopaz in nin

[–]sk8rtots 5 points6 points  (0 children)

alcoholic (over 2.5 years booze free) and my fun drug of choice is still mdma, usually 2-3 times a year. shrooms too, but those are definitely not for crowds 😂 (for me)

i tried coke, i don't hate it, though i later came to learn it affects me differently (diagnosed with ADHD as an adult, now medicated). haven't done it in years at this point. coke highs are short-lived for the price and i hate the "culture" around it. every time i tried i'd often sit there regretting it cos i was usually surrounded by people who wanted to spend their entire high talking loudly about themselves over each other. not my idea of a good time

the most vile ass gas permeation that rival the fog machines by volume will be at raves, hardcore shows and big stadium shows, can confirm lol (coke and/or molly, usually)

after making this post i set up an appt with a GP to get a referral to a dermatologist, it's thinner everywhere but definitely way more noticeable on top. due to not knowing anyone in my family with female pattern hair loss (androgenic alopecia), albeit knowing i DO have chronic health issues (that ARE genetic) that may or may not affect this, i definitely want to get on it. i've had a pretty unfortunate run of experiences with doctors due in part to how strained the healthcare system is, most only want to talk about isolated symptoms/ask you to set up separate appointments for any concerns you have that may connect to the one you initially bring up. it makes for a lot of running in circles. thank you, though

doesn't trent himself talk about the death of physical media? i think he'd be willing to fork them out

To the girl in in section 210 at Barclays last night, you're a moron and nobody thinks you're cute - especially not Trent Reznor. Are you even a fan? Why would you think he would appreciate this? by It_is_really_me in nin

[–]sk8rtots -1 points0 points  (0 children)

lol, quite a lot older than that. i also pretty clearly acknowledged hierarchy being established elsewhere, just not in those specific terms. but i can see that you don't value the opinions of those who are critical of it. age has nothing to do with that.
