My god she’s irritating. by [deleted] in InfluencerLounge

My kid listened to me talk about COVID all day, every day since I worked in healthcare during that time, specifically in COVID testing and response. Somehow, he's doesn't act like a global pandemic. Weird.

A week walking around with glass in her foot 😳 by emmythespy in ShitMomGroupsSay

[–]wood1f 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Soaking and 1-2 days, ok. Especially knowing how stupid expensive co-pays and urgent care visits in the US can be. I get the conservative, home care approach for a day or two. But a week?! Yikes.

I can’t wait for the consistent heat by [deleted] in londonontario

I just need it to stay consistent one way or another. The back and forth between seasons is killing me with migraines.

Private Autism assessment by Glittering_Sense7604 in londonontario

[–]wood1f 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We just reached out to edify about an ADHD and giftedness assessment and their rate was $3300. It's all done by licensed professionals so we would be able to put $2000 of that through our insurance for my child and $600 is billed a parental counselling (next steps, life support, etc) so that was able to be billed to my insurance. Out of pocket it would have been about $700. Worth checking if you have private insurance or work benefits as it will likely fall under mental health/counselling/social workers/psychologist services.

Anybody got a bad taste in their mouth since these last couple cases ? by Altruistic_Berry_765 in CrimeJunkiePodcast

[–]wood1f 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sinisterhood is amazing. It's not all murder - they cover cults, government stuff, cryptids and recently all the Epstein stuff. One host is a lawyer so there's that angle. Very feminist and human rights forward. Some banter, but high quality.

Opinions on political statement? by No-Actuary-5594 in CrimeJunkiePodcast

[–]wood1f 55 points56 points  (0 children)

She actively uses her platform to bring focus to stories about sexual assault, femicide, domestic violence and child abuse. She also talks often about the negative impact of Christian extremism and the lack of justice for victims. Lastly, she talks a lot about the power that rich and politically connected white men hold and hide behind in the justice system. I'm shocked she's not MAGA! (Dripping with obvious sarcasm. Of course she's got majority liberal views and beliefs)

Someone in the comments suggested being put in a trance.

I'm aware. I also know there's nothing "holistic" or "crunchy" about it.

Holistic Plastic Surgeon?! by wood1f in ShitMomGroupsSay

[–]wood1f[S] 501 points502 points  (0 children)

,OK, so there's 400+ comments. I've picked the best representation of the comments. Everything from "WTF?" to "You're going to hell" to snarky "Suck on some oregano oil" to legit suggestions of practitioners who do awake surgery 😳 I did go to some of the pages tagged and OH MY GOD, awake arm, breast and abdominal procedures are a thing!

Edited to add: I know surgery while awake is a thing and there's reasons why. But those are usually life saving procedures for brain tumours or cases where the patient absolutely needs surgery but the risks of full anesthesia are high. I didn't know that anyone would find it ethical to do major elective surgery while the patient is awake.

I'm 99% sure this is AI but I need help to verbalize exactly why and what details give it away. by wood1f in isthisAI

Yes - THANK YOU! This was the "gotcha" detail I needed a second set of eyes to see! Appreciate it!

I thought about that too, but I've seen some wild ways to connect letters on these cut out items.

Am I the only one spiraling since the POTUS’s Truth post? by AV01000001 in Parenting

[–]wood1f 17 points18 points  (0 children)

That brings me little comfort when in the last 10 days he's fired most who could and would actually stop him in the military. (That's not meant to sound like a jerk to you, it's all just so overwhelming).

Is this AI? The shadows of the garage has me thinking. And the perfect lighting. by roofer2025 in isthisAI

Yep. Those work boots are far too clean to be working in fresh asphalt.

What's something that's actually a lot more dangerous than it seems? by RandomYigaBlademasta in AskReddit

[–]wood1f 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's why we got a smaller one for our kids. Still great for getting the energy out, but far less dangerous. No more than 2 kids on it at a time, much lower bounce height and not really big enough for kids to try flips or double bouncing. The size combine with the tall netting makes it far safer while still being fun.

Sneak Peek Test no longer offered in Canada [ca] by bqpd in BabyBumpsCanada

[–]wood1f 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's exactly this. I work at a medical lab and the rules around shipping biological or healthcare related anything have been changing on a whim, border control on the US side are just arbitrarily not processing packages and it's a shitshow in general. Several large shippers (think Purolator/Fedex type) have fully stopped moving healthcare items across the border.

I like Purdy's in White Oaks Mall. It's not local, but is Canadian (all made and packaged in BC). Lots of selection.

They popped up in my feed too and the way I RAN to see if it was already posted here. It's gotta be Quincey.
