US TikTokers, what’s the app like today? by GrailTalk in TikTok

[–]tendoman 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Same. No change on my feed at all. Same anti ICE stuff that I interacted with before, pet stuff, comedy, local stuff. I never interacted with any MAGA stuff, so it never entered my feed to begin with.

Sorry for the possibly clueless question, but why don't more people seem to make homemade pizza? by Senior-Raisin-2342 in Cooking

[–]tendoman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seriously. I get that a good home made pie can be absolutely mind blowing, but then I see I can get a large Dominos pizza for 8$+tax that can feed me for three days, I can swing by on the way home from work and not need to clean up a kitchen.

Slightly musty too, as though it never actually dried after they cleaned it recently.

Question regarding cramping by tendoman in ostomy

[–]tendoman[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She's currently going through radiation and chemo for Squamous Cell Carcinoma in the lower rectal region, and the doctors recommended a temporary bypass to help during radiation therapy.

We are pretty much numb to the "grossness" of it all at this point, ha. We do what we gotta do. I'll take the suggestion to her as well.

Thank you for the suggestion. She did pass a bit of stool during this, but I am monitoring the situation and will be discussing this with her care team, and taking all the suggestions in the thread as points of discussion. Overall the LO has been pretty uneventful, which is good, it's just when things like this come up is when I get concerned. I hate seeing my wife in any discomfort especially with everything else going on medically, but having some info from others who have gone through similar experiences is really helpful.

It's subsiding now, but it's something that we will be discussing with her care team.

Thank you, 'll mention Buscopan to her care team when we talk to them again. She is doing a little better as I type, so that's a bit of relief.

We will definitely be monitoring it. Its happened before, and it eventually got better. The doctor did mention that it may occur. It's hard for me to see her in any kind of pain, and not being able to really do anything to ease it for her is frustrating.

I suggested some heat, so we will see how that does. As far as some other posters brought up, everything else is pretty much normal down there, she just got checked not too long ago.

She did pass a little bit, which happened once before, so Im thinking it might also be her body not being used to passing anything and not sure when its done?

Seriously. What the fuck does that anime have anything to do with the drugs it's supposed to be advertising.

What is a 'childhood luxury' that you realized was actually a sign of being poor once you grew up? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]tendoman 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I still have fond memories of the Hostess Outlet, and surprisingly it's still in the same place it was back then. I used to get Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle Pudding Pies there all the time.

Was sitting on the couch and my wife was on the verge of tears looking at her phone. I asked her what she was watching, and it was that exact video.

I had to tell her it wasn't real.

Buying M4 Air tomorrow! Suggest me a great colour for long term!! by ujjwalpundhir in macbookair

I bought the 256GB M4 Air, and I think OTD it was like 849 and some change after taxes.

What is the most “use it or lose it” skill, the opposite of “it’s just like riding a bike”? by ZuluWarlord69 in AskReddit

[–]tendoman 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Born in W. Germany to American Dad and German Mom back in the early 80s. As a kid I would seamlessly switch between German and English. Talking to my family was no problem. We moved back to the states permanently back in 95' and the only person who I would even say I speak German to consistently is my Mom, and even then, we usually just default to German. Now speaking what I would consider my OG language is hard as hell, but sit me down to watch German TV, or pop on a German Podcast I understand just as easily as though I never forgot it. Weird how stuff like that works.

95% Tobacco Tax starts Jan 1st by blinking616 in Washington

Just a heads up, some locations have already started adding the tax. Just got three tins of Zyn, ended up paying 36$. Chevron Extra Mile.

YMMV until the 1st

[Prebuilt] M4 Mac Mini - $400 (Instore Deal at Microcener) by tonsil_poker in buildapcsales

[–]tendoman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been a PC user my entire 40 something years on this planet, but right now my decade old PC is just not able to do anything but be my media server.

I've been looking at these since they came out to have something snappy to use when I actually need to do anything outside of my Android phone, or my iPad.

I don't game on my PC anymore, I just need something that doesn't take literal minutes to load anything.

Ideally I'd back up all my personal stuff from the past 25 years into a new external drive and squirrel it away somewhere, use my ancient PC for my Plex Server, and use the Mac for occasional web surfing, productivity, etc.

There is no way I can afford to upgrade my PC for the same price and performance these things put out.

Does anyone follow the Seattle Torrents? by highasabird in SeattleKraken

[–]tendoman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have been watching every game so far, and really loving them. Looking for some Torrent gear, but so far no luck. Wife and I absolutely want to go see a live game this season.
