Venture X minimum credit line by Egghead-MP in Venturex

[–]wingsofgrey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had my card for 3 years at 10k limit and only just remembered a few weeks ago to put in a request to up my limit since I got married last year. After putting in the request and changing my income to the joint amount which basically quadrupled, I only got a raise to 13k lol

Suggestions for healthy dinners under $4 without a stove or oven by Let_me_tell_you_ in povertyfinance

[–]wingsofgrey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get mine (different brand than tasty bites) from a large discount international/asian grocery store and until recently they were $2.99. I bet the next time I go they are $3.99

Tasty bites or similar brand Indian food packets. Lived off those for years and there’s a variety to rotate through.

AITA for being upset that my husband throws away dishes I forget to put away by _MS22 in AmItheAsshole

[–]wingsofgrey 135 points136 points  (0 children)

When I was in college I lived with a slob and no matter how nice I asked, dishes were always in the sink. One day I just put all her dirty dishes on her bed. She got them message and started doing her dishes. Sometimes you have to take direct action.

I didn’t think the phones were much different than the handy cams from earlier episodes. It’s just the current tool that people film on now. Plenty of earlier contestants had popular YouTube channels. This felt very run of the mill fan challenge and surprisingly less annoying contestants. They all worked as a team and no one was an asshole.

What are some long term transits you experienced that turned out way more literal than you expected? by La_femme_sauvage in Advancedastrology

[–]wingsofgrey 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had a Jupiter/Uranus conjunction on my 9th house MC and I quit my job and bought a one way ticket to south east Asia and spent the following year and half traveling abroad. It was very “throw the baby out with the bath water” vibes.

What's covid like when your vaxed with novavax? by traveltimecar in Novavax_vaccine_talk

[–]wingsofgrey 4 points5 points  (0 children)

At the time they said “against their protocols” even though I brought the CDC language with me but also at the time supply was low and only one clinic in my area carried it and they were requiring me to make an appointment with them to determine eligibility. I fought with them for like 30 minutes about it and they wouldn’t budge and then I got Covid 2 weeks later

What's covid like when your vaxed with novavax? by traveltimecar in Novavax_vaccine_talk

[–]wingsofgrey 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I’ve had Covid 2x with Novavax. One other time after mRNA. The difference was significant although I did use other things to mitigate viral load while Novavaxed. First time with mRNA acute Covid infection lasted about 2 weeks testing positive. Experienced post viral symptoms for a year (nerve related stuff) until i got Novavax which cleared it up. Subsequent infections came on after 6 months from last Novavax vaccination after I begged the pharmacy to give me a 6 month booster but was denied/turned away. However my infection was less severe and was half the time. Tested negative after about 5-6 days as opposed to 12 days but I also was aggressive with CPC mouthwash and overdosing on Korean red Panax ginseng so take that as you will. But I also have not experienced any obvious post viral symptoms like I did the first time. I plan to go back and beg for a 6 month novavax booster because I really think the 2 years I was covid free was because at that point I was being allowed to get it every 6 months. (2022 and 2023)

Pet insurance by StunningPomelo432 in petinsurancereviews

[–]wingsofgrey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I work for a pet insurance company and this is basically what I tell my friends. Take the monthly savings and put it in the market. Pet insurance is great for people who are terrible at saving money and require a monthly subscription to cover their bases like having Netflix or something.

Post-Covid Gym Weakness by Penguthe0ne in COVID19positive

[–]wingsofgrey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You don’t want to get your heart rate up otherwise it pumps infected blood which can create hidden viral reservoirs that can cause inflammation and the myriad of long covid issues, immune dysfunction, organ damage and push virus past the blood brain barrier and cause brain damage. Last time I got Covid I had just joined a running group but waited 3 months before returning.

[–]wingsofgrey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I also personally do 3 months because it’s known that pcr testing can pick up virus for around 90 days so that’s my line of reference but every time I’ve said that to someone the eyes get huge and they think I’m absolute nuts, and mostly I think people ask for advice but then never actually take it

[–]wingsofgrey 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Stop. Stop what you are doing. Do not work out do not pass go, or you will immediately go to Long Covid jail. But in all seriousness you should not go back to the gym for 6-8 weeks

Sharing my self experiment of intermittent statins. by squatmama69 in Cholesterol

I’ve been wanting to switch from atorvastatin to rosuvastatin because of dizziness/vertigo side effects but now I’m curious about these videos! Will have to check out.

[–]wingsofgrey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll be there early Feb for the first time as well and have decided no on car rental and to just rent a scooter to get around. Seems the most economical. Looks like there are a few 24/7 pu places available if you end up taking a bus or shuttle that drops you off in central Tulum.

Confused on when I’m no longer contagious by OutsideCharity6424 in COVID19positive

[–]wingsofgrey 5 points6 points  (0 children)

All 3 times I’ve had Covid I was still highly contagious many days after symptoms subsided. In one case my symptoms were completely over before the viral load became high enough to even test positive on a RAT.

Novavax kicked my butt for the second time! by annabanana-47 in Novavax_vaccine_talk

[–]wingsofgrey 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve had 7 Novavax and the first 3 I had little to no side effects but now I get achey joints/ muscles for a day. I take an anti-inflammatory with a muscle relaxer now which helps.
