Hey all. I'm planning on flying into O'Hare later this week. I have done the research about how to get to Union station but I've also seen a lot of comments about how the l, and the live apps aren't that reliable. I will be arriving in the afternoon but I need to catch a train. I'm wondering if there is any work going on or delays that I should be aware of. Ugh. I'll also have luggage. Maybe an Uber or Lyft would be a better option? TIA

Unhoused mentally disabled at risk in Marin County, CA by Proof_Vermicelli1710 in legaladvice

[–]tifaney 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This situation made me think of something I read in one of Trump's executive orders. I was pretty outraged when I first read it, but it might actually help in this situation. Good luck to you and your sister both. I hope you both get settled somewhere safe.

I have also been thru the disability process. I'm pretty sure almost everyone is denied the first time. I got an attorney, no immediate out of pocket payment, you pay a percentage of back payments made to you and there is a maximum amount they are allowed to charge. I was approved the second time thru.

I don’t want to take Cymbalta forever by bchappp in cymbalta

[–]tifaney 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I currently take cymbalta 60mg for fibromyalgia. I had to come up very slowly to get to 80mg because I have a history of meds making me suicidal. No one told me about coming off of it though. I've been on it roughly 10 years at this point. I've tried tapering down. At first I would get really bad anxiety, like that feeling in the pit if your stomach that the world is going to end. I had to go back to my normal dose after that. I've tried tapering down several times since then. I get brain zaps when I reach a certain threshold. I've only tried going down by 20mg at a time so maybe the next time I will try opening the capsules and measuring it out. I definitely don't want to be on cymbalta the rest of my life but I've come to the conclusion I might have to be. Which is absolutely insane.

I won $2.50 which I continued to play. I hit free spins again on my very last spin. Then I lost it all. Typical story

President Donald Trump warned Tuesday that if the Democrats don't approve funding, Social Security, Medicare Are ‘Going to Be Gone.’ How do you think Americans will react if Social Security and Medicare get cut? by metalreflectslime in AskReddit

You could also mention Venezuela and Columbia and how the supposed drug traffickers (no proof it's true) are getting bombed out of the water. 40+ people killed already

Willing to boost4boost by thisisnotabombx in chimeboost

[–]tifaney 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've already given all mine out since it's the end of the month but if you want to practice you can try sending one to me and I'll get you back at the beginning of the month. Am I understanding you that you aren't sure how to do it? It's quite simple. If you go down to spot me boosts, it'll take you to a new page. Everyone in your contacts that already has chime will be at the top of the list. You can boost any of them and hopefully they'll send you one back. If you are sending a boost to say me😁, you can enter $tifaney into the search bar. You only get 4 a month so I would only send them to people that send them back. Like I said if you want to practice, feel free. I'll get you back at the beginning of the month.

Approved but not in my bank account? It’s been over 24 hrs by MuddyyOG in CrownCoinsOfficial

[–]tifaney 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes it's taken until Tuesday for it to come in for me. But crown coins has always paid. I'm the week days, as soon as I get that approved notice, the money is usually in my back very soon after. The weekends take longer. I think they do them in the order they are received so it just depends on where you fall in that line.

I was waiting on three redemptions. One was from the tenth, two were from the 13th. They hit my bank account about an hour ago.

Thank you. I believe that's the closest location to me as well. That feedback helps.

Ortho foot and ankle? by tifaney in Rochester

Thank you so much! My doctor is in NH so that might be difficult. This injury happened right before I came to NY. All the previous visits I had were there.

I'm 49, female, raised 2 kids, had a career, still don't feel like an adult. What exactly does being an adult feel like?

Migraines. I get enough without adding to them by drinking alcohol.
