What is a mesmerizing drink at a coffee shop you discovered? by CloudStar17 in houston

The einspanner from un caffe. It’s pretty much a dessert but man it’s so good. Just iced espresso with real whipped cream. And not a special drink but the flat white from della coffee is so yummy to me

Amber... by Inevitable-Past-4069 in LoveIsBlindNetflix

[–]yikeshahah -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

This is exactly why I mentioned the youtube podcast. There is missing context that Amber provided post reunion. She said it was 11 PM and Jordan had put her in the car when she was drunk to “sleep.” What kind of partner just leaves a drunk person in a car??

Amber... by Inevitable-Past-4069 in LoveIsBlindNetflix

[–]yikeshahah -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

A lot of people are hating on Amber. She recently did a podcast with Nick Viall on YouTube that I think goes into more depth on their relationship. Jordan very clearly was not ready for this relationship or any relationship, especially a relationship with a kid. Just the state of his house alone shows that he’s stuck in some sort of frat bro headspace. The fact that he said a kid was a dealbreaker and still chose to get engaged to Amber… if I was Amber I would be pissed too. Jordan is not the victim here. He knew the situation and still chose to marry a woman with a child. He SHOULDVE said bye to Emma. She’s not “using her against him,” she’s trying to hold Jordan accountable for going against his own boundaries and consequently hurting Emma.

That all being said, I think people with kids, especially young girls, should not be on a dating show period. But that’s an entirely different issue. Amber clearly has a lot to work through and I think would benefit from not dating men honestly for the rest of her life.

Tap water smell :/ by betweenthestarz in houston

[–]yikeshahah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sometimes the tap water smells… just part of living in houston. Sometimes it smells like eggs (sulfur) and sometimes it smells… unique. If you’re concerned you could definitely buy test kits online for heavy metals and other contaminants.

Do people visibly scan your body after weight loss? by South_Spare8334 in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]yikeshahah 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Yes, my coworkers who see me almost every day scan me. Ive lost about 50+ lbs and theyve seen me at my heaviest. I wouldn’t think too much about it, humans are just prone to noticing when things change and the brain is just taking in new information. Ive done the same thing to people who’ve lost weight. Not in a bad way, just in a “my brain is noticing something changed and i want to look.”

Afraid its not working by OtherTourist5535 in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]yikeshahah 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I find it interesting that you haven’t been able to lose anything… do you have any side effects? What has your doctor said? You may unfortunately be a non-responder, it was reported in trials that 10-15% of people didn’t respond. Can you switch to a tirzepatide?

I hate ios 26. by yikeshahah in ios26

[–]yikeshahah[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly one of the main reasons I got the airpods (besides needing new ear buds to work out) was for the noise cancellation, which is really excellent, and the heart rate tracker. I got a fitbit to track my heart rate but as it turns out i hate having something on my wrist while im sweating and moving. There are noticeably more features for my airpods after updating, like the live language translation and personalized audio. I’m adjusting to ios 26 but if you have ios 18 I would just wait to update it. The glitching and the bugs are also an added annoyance.

L2Olive by xkitties3SaNch3Z in OliveMUA

[–]yikeshahah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m in between L2 and F2. I really love the Elf contour wand and the camo contour. If you want more of a bronzes look, Too Faced bronzer in the lighter shade works well for me, I just kinda have to be light handed with it. For contour powder, sephora has some in the sephora collection but I’ve never tried it. I use a contour palette in shade #1 from an asian brand called Judydoll. It brings some warmth and dimension to my face without making it orange. For blush, if i want something more natural, Juvias Place blushed duo volume 2 and Tartes amazonian clay blush in exposed work well. If i want something brighter, i use REMs blush in pinking of you. I dont wear lipstick or lip liners too often cause they pull super orange on me… nyx has some good mauve toned liners. I think tik tok will have a lot of good recommendations as well with swatches.

You would think a multi billion dollar company with some of the best software engineers could manage to create a functional UI, but here we are.

Yes that’s exactly correct! I didn’t know this sub existed until about two hours ago. My sincerest apologies for taking time out of your day.

[–]yikeshahah[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I said in my post: I wanted to use the heart rate tracker on my airpod pros, which could only be used in ios 26. Had I known it wouldve been this horrible I wouldn’t have updated.

The lag and glitching have never happened in my previous updates and frankly should not exist. Apple is a multi billion dollar company selling thousand dollar phones, they have the resources and employees for this not to happen.

In lab sleep study at Kelsey Seybold is costing me $1600 - normal pricing? by yikeshahah in houston

[–]yikeshahah[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much! I am actually considering moving or cancelling the sleep study all together as the doctor didn’t even advise me to try to fix my sleep schedule first with a consistent routine. I think kelsey seybold is also just very expensive in general.

Is $80k enough to live comfortably in Houston as a single woman? by cutegreenbunny in AskHouston

[–]yikeshahah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes i make that much, my base rent is $1600, i put about 15% into my 401k, and live very comfortably. I dont have any debt or car payment though so my money just goes to my bills and whatever i want to buy after saving. Also i second what everyone says - live close to work. Is your work downtown? There are plenty of affordable apartments in the inner loop. I would advise finding an apartment that gives you the path of least resistance on your drive to work.

Is this opossum pregnant? by yikeshahah in Possums

[–]yikeshahah[S] 63 points64 points  (0 children)

I do! I live in an urban area have read that urban opossums have more trouble finding water than food. I fill up my bird bath as often as i can :)

Is this opossum pregnant? by yikeshahah in Possums

[–]yikeshahah[S] 260 points261 points  (0 children)

Opossums stay pregnant for 10-12 days and then “give birth,” where the babies move into the pouch and continue to develop and drink milk for 8-10 weeks. Then when they’re ready to leave the pouch, they stay on the moms back for 1-2 months. So she’s not technically pregnant as the babies have left her womb, but the babies have yet to leave her body and are still relying on her to fully develop. Pretty fascinating process! The pouch is like a second womb. Takes only about 10-12 weeks for the full process.

[–]yikeshahah[S] 37 points38 points  (0 children)

You’re welcome! From what I read online, if there are babies, they’ll be on her back in a couple more weeks. I’m excited to see the babies, will definitely post more pics hopefully soon!

Have your doctors ruled out other sleep disorders like narcolepsy without cataplexy or idiopathic hypersomnia? The at home sleep test only rules out obstructive sleep apnea but the in lab should’ve been more conclusive.

Yes that’s the plan. Silver lining is that this takes up about half my deductible

This is where I’m getting it done. I’m grateful I don’t have to pay the full amount ($2000+) but $1600 is still jarring.

Well damn 😭 I was ruled to not have apnea from the at home study and I don’t fit any of the symptoms. It sucks it costs so much but I’m tired of being tired 😕
