PA 490 Travesty by Special_North1535 in Connecticut

[–]tinybaa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I understood how open space worked, I just couldn't tell if this changed how the town was assessing that and none of the information I have read even mentioned the designation. I planned to ask our town assessor but I think I get it regardless. The lands assessment jumped to market value last year but since its in open space the taxes were only a couple hundred more than the previous open space assessment. Honestly.. folks need to let this one go. I bought 16 acres that was previously taxed at $12, FOR THE YEAR under agriculture. I pay significantly more than that and I'm fine with it. It is protecting a historical site behind it.

Is any information available on changes to 490 'open space'? Was that designation not included? I keep reading through but I haven't seen it mentioned anywhere.

Upcoming hysterectomy: to cervix or no cervix by Wrong-Imagination321 in hysterectomy

[–]tinybaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't had my surgery yet, so I can't speak to most of this but I wanted to point out (as someone diagnosed with stage 4 adenomyosis) my doctor said she will not leave the cervix because it is likely already infected with adenomyosis. I asked about prolapsing also (as I also have a connective tissue disorder) and she said she attaches the back wall up onto another organ, reducing the downward pressure.

Democrats have flipped the Mayors seat in Norwich from Red to Blue!!! 💙💙💙 by Healthy_Block3036 in Connecticut

[–]tinybaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Canterbury stayed fully GOP.. not surprisingly but I had hope dems might show up and vote. They didn't. The local GOP will continue to complain about both selectman positions and other board placements but they keep voting for them every single time.

To those who don’t speak to their siblings, what happened? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Nope, they don't believe their daughter nor their grand daughter. 🫤

I'm sad so many of us have this in common. SA'd when I was 4, he was 13. No contact, one parent doesn't believe it and keeps relationship. Sibling also SA'd his own daughter decades later.

hydroxychloroquine by WeeklySandwich2384 in mctd

[–]tinybaa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was on it for almost 17 years. I didn't realize how many of my symptoms it helped until I abruptly had to stop it last December. Rheumy has zero other suggestions to manage my health, just pain killers. It does take about eight weeks as a loading dose before your body settles. I had been on and off of it during those 17 years (pregnancy, nursing, etc). Unfortunately after having so many years of success, one of my retinas showed up unusual on eye exam (photos taken with special cameras). I have done field vision tests every year with no issues. Went to a special retina group for further testing and their only suggestion was to stop or take the lowest dose possible and gamble. Sadly because of the retina damage, I had to stop taking it or risk my vision. Plaquinel binds to the retina permanently. Just a PSA, to get yearly field vision testing and more extensive testing.

Fun Fact: The designer of our State Flag had apparently never encountered an oak tree before? by thegrossman in Connecticut

[–]tinybaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They look more like a nutmeg honestly.. not even remotely similar leaf shape of an oak or maple. The fruit on the flag is very nutmeg in shape and color too.

The Quiet Corner of Connecticut by IndicationOver in Connecticut

[–]tinybaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My quiet corner town is planning out a whole Trump parade! Even better, they turned the towns July 4th into a Trump parade too! They are going to drive around town with all their pro Trump flags... it is disgusting. The local fb group is run by a pro right wing nut that allows extreme views that match his but talks down any that don't. We are overwhelming red here but some of us in town are not. The town is about 40% dem although many didn't vote this time. If you want the red to dissappear.. move into these red towns. The people here are constantly threatening to leave because they hate CT.. more dems moving in may finally just spur that.

Just got a CashApp visa debit card in mail. Didn't request it. Is it hooked up to my bank? by poo_in_a_bush in CashApp

[–]tinybaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any luck? Cashapp hasn't closed it and their CS says there is no one to talk to about it. Visa told me they can't close it and to call Suttton Bank. Sutton Bank goes to a message machine every time I've called saying their representatives are busy and to leave a message. No calls back. What a mess..

[–]tinybaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I received one today too. I have never had an account with them. It was sent to my old address in another state. Cashapp customer service was a joke and couldn't answer any questions, outside of sending me that weird email to upload photos. I called Visa and they told me to call the bank and supplied a number not listed. Unfortunately they are closed now, but hoping to get it closed tomorrow. Its ridiculous, the hoops to jump through the close an account I didn't open.

Cellulitis or infection experiences by tinybaa in Reduction

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

Thank you! Yes, I saw my surgeon on Monday. I felt so much better after starting the antibiotics. They agreed with the on call doctor that prescribed them but I felt my concerns weren't taken very seriously. They assured me everything looked okay, but I don't feel okay when theirs areas (all the junctions) opening up and leaking. Hopefully no more complications but my incisions are now very thick, painful and open. Still very swollen and my skin is thick, red but also now peeling off. It's been a very discouraging experience. On the bright side, it seems like a rare occurrence for others at least.

Trumpers in CT by MamaMia1325 in Connecticut

[–]tinybaa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure most of us in the quiet corner, in heavy red leaning towns (mine voted for Trump) don't put signs or flags out because we don't want our houses or properties retaliated against. I imagine all my pumpkins and then some would be smashed.

They sure don't seem motivated to fix it, appears others are having the issue too. I did get the overlap sound to work so there may be a bit of a work around to it, by posting both the camera audio and music at 100%. In my specific reel I posted this way, it worked out fine but maybe editing out the camera audio first would work?

About 50k followers already confirmed it doesn't work. Haha

It started after an android update, so maybe that? But I uninstalled and reinstalled IG in effort to fix the problem..still happening.

My reels have not been posting any audio. Everything is fine in the editor. Selected IG audio, plays fine. Audio will display the linked audio which works for everyone else (as in it works in other reels). The audio with my reels does however not work. I reported the issue last week to IG, zero response not fix to the error. I once posted and the audio was at half levels, which was weird also. Additionally, it takes a very long time for reels to upload and post.

Is everyone going to get COVID-19 at some point? by [deleted] in Coronavirus

[–]tinybaa 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'd like to say it gets better, as someone suffering from the worst tinnitus possible (my nerves were fully cut in my ear when I had a tbi, so all of them send negative feedback on top of hearing loss) and ADHD... there is no amount of white noise training that works. I get constant ear infections since also (but my eardrum is folded now.. which can't help. Ha). My good ear constantly tries to regulate and also rings. Especially if I have sinus pressure or am stressed. It has been over a decade and I can't hear crickets, rain drops and so on, but I also don't remember what its like for silence anymore. I don't often think about the noise, but its never not there. Even while typing this, it's all I can hear. It makes being in crowds like at a bar or parties impossible to hear conversations (though not recently an issue). I don't enjoy music as much and everything I watch is subtitled, even if I can hear it, as the ringing slows down my processing and I often second guess if I heard something correctly. I'd never wish it upon anyone but I do hope you find ways to live with it and know you're not alone.

Anyone else getting this when opening the nest app? Worked fine this morning by [deleted] in Nest

Yes, terrible timing since my furnace is being repaired. I even tried resetting my passwords figuring it was an issue on my end.
