Yup. My wife has a family history of lupus, has kidney issues, had a serious b12 deficiency, and pretty much every other symptom of lupus, but a negative ANA panel, so it can’t be lupus (a negative ANA doesn’t rule it out completely).

When she went in because she was having neuropathic pain, which is very common in lupus and b12 deficiencies, she was told it was probably from her covid vaccine.

What sucks the most is I, a 6’3 male, actually gets taken seriously by the same doctors. It’s bad enough that I have to go with her to appointments so there’s a chance of her being taken seriously.

Or a doctor that dismisses all of your symptoms because they can’t be fucked to put effort into a diagnosis.

If you abstract any two things out far enough you can make them sound the same.

I really want to know what dirt Putin had on the entire GOP.

Yes? At the time of my comment all of the other comments were people hoping it would be a good thing.

I’m not sure why people are expecting Microsoft to act altruistically in this merger. They’re a publicly traded company that exists to create profit for their shareholders, and they’re not going to do a single thing that won’t increase their profits.

Mergers like this are always bad for the consumer, and the FTC is betraying the citizens by letting it happen.

Time to start searching Ollie’s and Big Lots.

It’s not even nice in the winter. The humidity makes the cold bitter.

I’m not sure what drugs you’re on, but the climate in the south is fucking awful.

My experiences are the same as yours. The only time I’ll get an auto flush while sitting is if I lean forward too far

The fact that you’re having to ask means you shouldn’t do it.

You need to take a minute to research before you burn your house down.

You can still just crack open the banks and wire the cells together in parallel or series (depending on your needs), then hook them up to one of the controllers. I bet they’re just a bunch of 18650s

Yeah, I definitely forgot to mention that they haven’t had to use the shock feature yet. That’s my bad.

Yeah, that’s kinda what happens with GDs. My shrink has one that’s 2yo that still does that stuff despite a ton of training and such. They eventually had to resort to a shock collar which kinda works for some things like barking, but she’ll still destroy stuff. .

If you have a fenced in back yard, I’d put her out there for a few hours to see if that helps things. Does she play fetch, because if so you can get an automatic ball launcher that they can drop the balls into. That was my suggestion that my shrink is trying out now.

But, in all honesty, every single person I’ve met who has a GD has deeply regretted their decision.

Lol

MySpace actually just reverted back to it’s intended purpose which is for bands to post their stuff.

People are fucking stupid, but I guess it’s good that they’re eating vegetables.

What? Corrosion is the surface oxidizing, not the entire thing dissolving.

Ah, what you’re looking for is MySpace. It’s original intention was exactly what you’re looking for, and since everyone moved to Facebook that’s what it’s reverted back to.

Yes, it’s called running a business. Spending money on advertising is a requirement if you want to start one.

It doesn’t take much money if your work is good, though. My wife is a tattoo artist and she built up her following in just 1 year to the point where she’s booked out 2 months, and she only promoted posts for $20 or so here and there.

Self promotion isn’t an easy thing to do, so I’d suggest reading some how-to articles about how to grow your Instagram following. It requires a lot of work, to the point where managing your social media is a very large part of the job.

At the beginning my wife spent about 75% of her time on social media, while the other apprentice didn’t. Now the other apprentice struggles to have more than a few appointments a week.
