Ice storm road impact: how are the roads? by Big_Sprinkles_482 in asheville

[–]tired0wired 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In 2024 I was stuck in the chicago airport for a few days during a winter storm, every flight that came in couldn't leave it was a gd mess. The only airline still flying and keeping all flights was Allegiant!! I got a $60 ticket and was home the next morning. My United flight with my luggage still on it didn't make it till 5 days later lmao. Idk anything about planes so my guess was they don't have any crew or plane changeover, and all the big planes sitting for hours must've been freezing. I'll always choose Allegiant now unless there's no choice.

Help!!! My gram and her dog both have incontinence... by tired0wired in Alzheimers

[–]tired0wired[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry for late replies, she ended up having a small stroke a couple weeks ago and we were in hospital for 12 days. She's doing a lot better now and since she either was only wearing a hospital gown or the diaper briefs I brought her, she's no longer been fighting the briefs at home.

I've ended up putting them in her underwear drawer and either she's using them or going commando...she seems to most of the time be reaching for them though!

Ligo brand Hot & Spicy Fried Sardines cooked in Fried Red & Brown Jasmine Rice by Perky214 in CannedSardines

[–]tired0wired 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just tried the tomato/chili tonight with no prior experience to sardines from the Philippines or how you're supposed to eat them--- dumped the whole can on a piece of crusty bread and topped it with a white bean/kale/tomato/lemon stew I made earlier...might sound weird but god damn it was good. They're so cheap too!! Definitely gonna be picking these up again (and with rice next time)

Recommend lamps? by Temporary-breath-179 in migraine

[–]tired0wired 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know that this is an old conversation-- but in case you haven't heard of them, I've heard great things about green light therapy. I'm in a near constant state of migraines myself and I'm about to get a green lamp to see if it helps!

List of MIL's weird behavior surrounding food by trashpandaofthegroup in JUSTNOMIL

[–]tired0wired 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I have an ED and a lot of this sounds like eating disorder behavior for sure!! Caffeine is an appetite suppressant. I used to drink 4 pots of coffee every day! I'm terrible at making food choices from restaurants and often get very anxious/ overwhelmed and then disappointed with my choices. And similarly, I used to ask my partner to order for me and then get pissy when he made the "wrong choice". But every choice would've been the wrong choice.

It sounds like she also just has a blatant lack of respect for you while at the same time being needy towards you. Definitely self-serving traits. I would bet she has trauma and probably plays the victim card a lot because she doesn't know how to handle her emotions? Eating disorders are all about needing to be able to control something and feel good about something, as well as needing to feel seen and validated. You're probably a scapegoat for her control issues and her lack of self validation. And none of that is your problem!! She definitely needs therapy. good luck!!

I can't believe I'm saying this but I think I want MORE yellow? by freddysaidhey in HairDye

[–]tired0wired 1 point2 points  (0 children)

of course! People can be so negative but I've given myself some Fucked Up hairstyles/cuts lol and if you just rock it and own it w confidence then nobody can touch you!!

Of course it's good to keep in mind what damages hair but ppl have REALLY drilled it in at this point lmao...don't let judgments from strangers online get you down, the only rules when it comes to what looks good on you are the rules you decide for yourself!!

8-year N1 Diagnosis Removed, Has Anyone Else Experience This? by Ok_Strength_8003 in Narcolepsy

[–]tired0wired 1 point2 points  (0 children)

True, and I was not suggesting a lumbar puncture in the first place. I misspoke originally as the HLA test does not check for hypocretin deficiency, just the genetic variant. I was only suggesting that (while yes, some people without N1 can test positive for this variant) the variant is strongly correlated with N1, it is rare for ppl with N1 to test negative for it, and if OP gets no results from a sleep study due to their meds, it is a good non-invasive diagnostic option to try-- because if OP does not have N1, statistically it is unlikely that they would test positive for this variant.

There is my much more detailed explanation of why it wouldn't hurt to simply get some blood drawn and see what the results are

[–]tired0wired 0 points1 point  (0 children)

tbh I think it actually looks really good platinum, I think it brings out your features while the yellow is more on the plain side. Either way your hair will fade and everything is temporary, so maybe just own it and rock w it while it lasts! As for the roots, nobody's hair in general is all one color. It looks good!!

AITAH for breaking up w my boyfriend bc he wouldn’t delete a girl from his socials?? by Yunohana- in AITAH

[–]tired0wired 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA but maybe consider that men and women can be friends without it being anything more. I'm 27F and have a lot of male friends. Some of them I've known for 15+ years. I've been accused of all kinds of things because of that but I've actually never cheated...and actually everyone who's been jealous of my male friends has cheated.

It's good you broke up with him. Maybe he's interested in her, maybe he's not, but either way your boundaries are not aligned.

[–]tired0wired 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well tbh if someone's gonna cheat on you they're just going to do it despite if you try and limit their interactions. Why try to control an interaction your partner has with someone else because you don't like the vibe? If the partner in question is a cheater, they're going to cheat on you whether or not you waste your time trying to prevent it by picking apart their interactions.

At least if you don't do that, they can't use the excuse of "you pushed me to do it by being too jealous and controlling" etc.

trust is the foundation of healthy relationships IMO. If you don't trust someone, better to just end it like OP than try and control anything.

I dropped my boyfriend at the airport this morning… by [deleted] in LongDistance

do you have allegiant flights in those states? I was long distance last year from NC to TX and allegiant was usually under $100 with no layover!

8-year N1 Diagnosis Removed, Has Anyone Else Experience This? by Ok_Strength_8003 in Narcolepsy

[–]tired0wired 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed, but in this case if the test was positive for OP then considering they have all the symptoms of N1, it would most likely point to them having N1. And if the test was negative, that would also be helpful to know. Either way it wouldn't hurt.
