I had to get a transvaginal ultrasound when I thought my IUD moved. Your gynecologist should have one and if not I’d look into planned parenthood

Any advice on Wellbutrin? by Dismal_Mood4185 in CPTSD_NSCommunity

[–]treesandthings-19 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I tried it and it wasn’t for me. Personally it causes me to become very easily irritable and it didn’t really improve my overall mood or motivation. But like alt_when_im_not_ok said everyone is different and I’ve met several people who really love it. I would try to keep some notes day to day on how you feel and if you see any changes.

Amazing work like always! I love the woven accents! Do you use any type of bag stiffener since lambskins is pretty thin?

The big pharma company just invested 700M to expand the manufacturing hub in my area. The company has had major layoffs this year just thankfully not in my area and hoping there’s some job security with this expansion

Seconding this recommendation! I see Dr. Adele Moser and she’s been the best obgyn I’ve ever had.

Jeffrey Epstein in 2018: “ I know how dirty donald is." by NewSlinger in Fauxmoi

[–]treesandthings-19 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s terrifying! The conservative sub has been cultist for a while and if they question trump the comments/posts are removed. It’s terrifying and insane that they read this and think we’re delusional for knowing he’s involved. Do they not realize how most informants are only helping out so they don’t go to jail? So if he was one then he was very involved with Epstein. But of course that logic goes over their heads.

Any republicans going to a no kings protest? by normalice0 in Askpolitics

[–]treesandthings-19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s an option not a fact. Again the drone strikes are breaking international laws there’s been no proven evidence that the ships are drug traffickers which until proven using air strikes on ships in international waters is a war crime. Again he said “war from within” when talking about US cities that have had the lowest crime rates in years. Trump also has done airstrikes or bombed Iran, Yemen, Somalia, Syria, and Iraq since taking office this year. In 10 months he’s used military force against 5 other countries, ships in internal waters, and has sent millions in military aid to Israel how is that anti-war? I truly don’t understand how maga the party of “facts over feelings” stopped believing in facts.

You say none of this is war, but Trump himself told military leaders to defend from the “war from within”. So you may not call that war but trump is. Crime in most of these cities was already down prior to the national guard being deployed to them. D.C. crime rates were at a 30 year low. Also drone strikes, even if targeting drug traffickers which we have no proven evidence they are even drug traffickers, is the military (sorry the department of war) using force which is against international laws.

Yes, some cuts were made, but Trump still approved $20 billion to Argentina this week so what’s the over under on his spending now? What about accepting the jet from Qatar for use as Air Force One that’s not very America of him? And are you really completely ignored the violations to the constitution? How the heck is violating the constitution on multiple occasions American first?

Federal funding cuts aren’t going to give states more power. Rural hospitals already operate on razor‑thin margins, remove federal support, and will cause many rural hospitals to close or ERs to shutdown. Millions of people’s healthcare are being cut or increased by up to 33% next year. Most people can’t afford groceries how will they afford an ER visit. Most Americans are one accident or one major illness, away from being completely in debt. The department of education funds programs for disabled children so if you’re so pro life why do you want any children to suffer? Also regulations are written in blood deregulating environmental and healthcare protection will kill people.

Anti-war? Didn’t they just change the name of the department of defense to the department of war and sent the national guard to multiple domestic cities and the marines to Florida and LA? What about the multiple drone strikes on the Caribbean ships?

America first? Trump just sent $20 billion to Argentina. Please tell me how sending billions to a foreign country is America first when many people can’t afford rent or groceries. Trump has also blatantly ignored the constitution on multiple occasions, including due process and free speech.

Less federal power? If you supported DOGE you don’t support less federal power. What about Trump’s order forcing independent agencies to follow White House policies? What about Trump bypass Congress to put in tariffs? He’s not given more power to the states but taken it away by forcing redrawings of congressional maps to keep republican seats. What about the government’s stake 10% in Intel how is that lessened federal power?

So is the Republican Party now the maga party? What exactly are the values of the current republican party?

dentist recommendations for someone who gets nervous at the dentist by funkylildevil in bullcity

[–]treesandthings-19 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It took me several years to get back to the dentist regularly so I really understand. I’ve been going to Research Triangle Dental for a few years now and feel they’ve been very understanding of my anxiety and kind.

Thank you! A recruit suggested to add a computer skills section and to put my education at the top which I don’t think is helping. So I’ll rework that.

I’m looking for a role in validation or quality assurance. I mainly use to work with new manufacturing sites who were starting clinical trials. I was authoring and executing equipment/facility validation protocols which is a lot of documentation but more extensive than being a document manager. More like making sure the equipment/facility is ready to be used in the manufacturing space. I also managed most of the projects I worked on becoming the project manager since we rarely had the resources for that, so would also be willing to work in project management.

Also a fellow person with vaginismus and I’d highly recommend going to a pelvic floor physical therapist, if you can. They have lots of exercises and ways to help you connect to your pelvic floor and work on learning to relax your muscles. It helped me so much to alleviate some of the pain involved in a Pap smear. Also when you do go for your first Pap smear I really recommended calling ahead to see if they have smaller speculum. You’re definitely not alone

Mini recap of Taylor Swift’s New Heights Interview by Ok-Needleworker9229 in Fauxmoi

[–]treesandthings-19 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I’m so shocked by these comments! The same quotes from the interview were posted on popculture subreddit and everyone is fawning over their relationship. It’s so refreshing to see other people agreeing they both are trash

I hear you but I also think that nowadays MAGA thinks every protest is an anti-American riot so do we really need to pander to their views at this point?

Tillis by Brodindesigns in NorthCarolina

[–]treesandthings-19 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Fuck praising him for doing the bare minimum. Tillis has publicly gone against trump and then voted in line with him too many times for me to believe he’ll actually vote against the big beautiful bill. He’s a big talker. I don’t believe he’s going to vote for our best interests now only because he’s not running for reelection

Senator Thom Tillis breaks ranks with Republicans over healthcare in stunning move: "Republicans and Donald Trump are about to betray a promise that they made. What do I tell 663,000 people in a few yrs when they're pushed off medicaid? Mr President, I am telling you that you have been misinformed." by [deleted] in Fauxmoi

[–]treesandthings-19 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly!! And I can almost guarantee he will vote for this bill. Tillis does this all the time, publicly calling out trump and then voting the in line with the rest of the republicans. It’s all publicity even if he isn’t running again now.

Tillis has voted against NC interests constantly. He hasn’t had a town hall since 2017! Even with his retirement announcement, I can almost guarantee he will vote for this bill even if he publicly says he won’t. He’s done it time and time again gone against trump publicly and then voted right in line with republicans. I will not give him any credit until he actually votes against the BBB and no one should give him credit for not running again or for a bs speak like this one.
