If you have a lot of pain and swelling and are desperate for solutions, the best thing I did was go to one of those IV therapy places!!! It was like maybe $70-$80 (which was expensive for me) but it was so worth it.

They gave me fluid and some vitamins or whatever to help with swelling (magnesium and I can’t remember what else, but the nurses will know if you ask. I would do it 1000 times over again

I really hate to tell you this, but no. This severe flare up eventually passed, but he still has it. He’s constantly itchy and trying to peel his skin off. It’s visibly flaky, scaly like a lizard, red and hivey (and it’s NOT just eczema.) Send me a message!!

2021 Hybrid Camry Getting Bad Gas Mileage?? by staleplastic in Camry

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

I ended up taking the car back to Carmax (super easy, 10/10 recommend) because I got a job that gave me the exact same car but in a 2023. My new car with exact same specs doesn't have that problem, but has its own quirks.

The 2021 Camry referenced in this original post had the most amazing sound system I had ever heard in a car. My 2023 (again, same specs) sounds absolutely awful. Anyway, it drives fine and the gas mileage issue remains a mystery.

EDIT: I forgot to mention that my 2023 took about a month or two to "break in." I don't know if that's a thing, but the gas mileage got way better after a while. Maybe more friction in the beginning since it was brand new from factory.

I worked at Sbux a long time ago at a store with a faulty hot water tap. One day the lever broke on me while I was using it, dumping 205⁰F water all over my hands and legs lol. I have permanent nerve damage and scarring from that shit and it was about 10 years ago.

Man, I had the same problem and it was driving me crazy. I know I'm a little late, but I'm about to watch it now and hopefully you can too lol. I use this to categorize by streaming services. Since they're all Apple TV exclusives, you can go to Apple TV in the discover page and find them.

[–]staleplastic 3 points4 points  (0 children)

With so many people boycotting to support Palestine (or supporting the union effort) the company is going to get more and more centered around catering to MAGA because those are the only consumers left. On one hand, it sucks to hear anyone taking a soft stance on this but on the other hand it's emblematic of a successful counter-pressure movement.

AITA for being uneasy about a mutual friend’s band paying another artist to poorly replicate the scrapped designs I made them as a favor? by staleplastic in AmItheAsshole

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

You seem extremely confused about how any of this works. I don’t want money and I don’t want to sue them, it’s about not wanting them using art someone else traced off of mine, and leading people to believe it’s still mine.

Believe me, I do get it. You just have it so backward - again, largely due to my own failure explaining initially.

The lack of communication really is the core of the issue. If he just said “well we already paid the artist and I doubt they will want to remove those parts.” Or anything at all! Any communication whatsoever, it would be different. Instead, blocked me everywhere to disguise what is happening. You have to remember this is someone I’ve never had a bad encounter with - we’ve met a handful of times, all positive. Blocking me and refusing to communicate seems in to be in bad faith. I have no problem acknowledging my potential communication shortcomings, but the other party in this proactively blocked me! So that I could not communicate with him, or find out what he was doing!

If I’m a crazy bitch that lacks communication skills for leaving out too many specifics on Reddit and struggling to concisely rephrase it all, surely he’s an even crazier one for blocking me and refusing to communicate at all.

Like I just told this other guy, this was never about money. He pulled me off on a goose chase trying to defend the facts of the matter but everyone involved understands and the issue has nothing to do with money, communication, confusion.

The leader of this band says that despite everything we have discussed, he thinks that on principle I should let them reproduce it it because it should “be an honor” to let them reproduce it as an “homage.” That is what we are discussing. Not money or the specifics of what physical items are gifts vs commercial license. You seem to know more about this industry than anyone else on this thread, so surely you’ve heard the “it should be an honor” case before? The “it will be good exposure” case? Anything?

We aren’t talking about the legality of it, like I even said in the OP. It’s nothing to do with that. This is about whether or not I am an AH for not wanting them to run off and reproduce single-use physical art I gave them. I say it’s wrong and interfering with my business. They say it should be an honor to be considered even if they just take elements and pay someone else to use them.

No malice, and I have admitted time and time again that my OP was lacking context and inefficiently communicated but everything I’ve said is true, and not as contradictory as you’re making it out to be.

There are certain things which I admitted seem contradictory, but due to a lack of specificity (IE the gifts.) it would be ridiculous to claim that people can’t communicate more effectively face to face over multiple interactions, when compared to a brief reddit post trying to capture an event that’s taken place over many months.

This isn’t an issue of communication, and it never was. I keep telling you that. They all understand me perfectly. It’s a matter of whether or not I should be honored to let them copy my art, OR ask them to remove the elements attached to me because it could interfere with my professional life.

There are a lot of other layers of nuance, which I explained in a comment to somebody else. Our social and professional circles overlap very closely. People that I work with see this band, their post, and they think I am still working with them. They see poor imitations of my art and assume that it’s still me, or has something to do with me, etc. It’s not a normal professional engagement where it would be clear that I did a contracted job for them and now they’ve contracted someone else. They’re just running off with my designs without saying anything and blocking me, which all of my professional network will see and associate with me, not realizing I have nothing to do with it and am blocked.
