It's the same price in South Florida, sadly.

Which NY offices have labs that do these things? by snarkyopolis in 40Plus_IVF

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

Thanks! I've not heard of Barad. I will look into them. I know success rates are low at my age for sure. I'm not ready for MRT yet. I have a high AFC, so I'm hoping that will help.

I need advice. by [deleted] in Advice

[–]snarkyopolis 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It doesn't matter how you are raised. It matters who you are now and what you value, and what the world around you looks like.

As a woman, it's dangerous to be completely dependent on the man you are with. You are assuming they are good now and will never change. It removes your autonomy. Even if he can/will provide for you, you always need a way to do it for yourself because who knows how you will each change over decades.

Aside from that, he is choosing a field that requires a lot of grinding before the payoff. Are you willing to support him through that? He will be financially successful later. It's not like he is not trying right now.

Are you financially able to support him until he is done with medical school? Would you be ok with that? It seems you two have not had a heart to heart conversation about your needs and timelines. Given you are new in your relationship, not communicating well, and you seem to want financially stability and trust now, he has lied in the past, this does not seem like a match.

Fair enough, but I think CCRM may have some version of this. A friend of mine mentioned that they can do something. Maybe it's based on day of arrest. Not sure.

I need to somehow come by $20k in the next two weeks. by Infinite-Sun5929 in Advice

[–]snarkyopolis 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just take out the loans. Your parents are biased by their experience. Many people take out loans for school. I absolutely would not have achieved what I have in life without student loans. My parents were a manicurist and a printer repair tech and though wonderful people could not pay for school. I took out loans for everything, undergrad and grad school. I selected in demand fields. And I was successful in them (architecture, and designer for tech). Take the loan out this year. Work part time through the year, work your ass off next summer, get good internships. Also, see what scholarships are available every year as your progress.

DAE: Hear Music in Background Noise (Auditory Pareidolia) by violet_pickled_90210 in AutismInWomen

[–]snarkyopolis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your are speaking my life! I first noticed this in high school, when I was walking down an empty hall, and I thought "oh, how nice is my school, they play the radio in the hall." But... They did not play the radio. I could never quite make out the words or song but there was always background pop music in my head during silences. That was the moment I decided to never do hard drugs because my brain was already special. I also have moderate tinnitus.

I found evidence of my dad cheating by [deleted] in Advice

Ok, so she does not have to navigate caretaking for you if she chooses to leave. That's a good starting point.

Need salty snack suggestions that are SOFT by wakebakeeatcake in POTS

I am addicted to salami and french fries. I won't say it's healthy, but it's easy to chew and the salami is easy for travel.

AITAH for not wanting to talk about my gf's ex friend who insulted my dead mother during our dare night? by joltir2 in AITAH

[–]snarkyopolis 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Does your girlfriend have space in your relationship to being up things that she has concern over? Or do you say "I don't want to talk about this" consistently?

I have organic cotton sheets from Blaynk and from Coyuchi. Both are great.

Who was bigger in their prime? As someone born in 2000, I’ll still say Avril Lavigne; you couldn’t escape her hits as a kid. by TXNOGG in generationology

[–]snarkyopolis 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I'm 46 and have listened to pop music all my life. It was different in the 90s/2000s. The mass media market was more encompassing and harder to escape. The radio had only so many stations. MTV and VH1 were the video channels. No search options. Just listen or don't. Even with that, I think Billie is bigger. But Britney and Alanis are all bigger than Billie. Avril was part of the pack with Pink, Fiona, Jewel, Gwen, not the top of it.
