  • eBay is usually the cheapest IMO

    The same vintage “rare” McDonald’s T-shirt I wanted was $50+ on Etsy, Mercari, Poshmark, even some eBay sellers. But I got it for $2 from a dude on eBay 🤷‍♀️

    Etsy is way worse at what OP is talking about, but I’m using it for vintage stuff not really electronics. For electronic stuff I use Swappa mostly



  • I would consider a new dentist, and probably a sedation dentist if you have issues with numbing.

    Depending on what you are having done, there is also laser dentistry. And my dentist has some special drill where he has done shallow cavities for me with no novacaine and I didn’t feel shit except the usual drilling/pressure feeling.

    This dentist just sounds shitty. Yes you were tensing up but you already told them a bunch of times you were in pain. They should have had a plan in place that y’all had agreed upon for dealing with a situation where the lidocaine wears off. Or maybe schedule you at a time where there are no other patients so they could go as fast as possible with no interruptions. Maybe I am expecting too much here but my dentist is the bomb and would easily do that for someone.



  • That’s not how medical procedures work. You don’t get to go to the doctor and request whatever legal procedure you require on a whim. It’s a decision made between a doctor and patient, without the government involved. AT ANY STAGE. That is the point.

    Besides, do you really think someone is going to go through 8 months of pregnancy just to abort for funsies? That is “planned parenthood turns fetuses into chicken nuggets” level of delusion. You are really underestimating the physical toll taken on the body by pregnancy.

    If someone got to 8 months, and they go to their doctor and discover the fetus is going to be born only to suffer and die in their arms, the government should have 0 say on how that medical decision is handled. Which is what late term abortions actually are.



  • I used to be fat, and when I watch morbidly obese people talk about how much they love food and it makes them happy and makes them feel better that is 100% me. Food is absolutely an addiction for some people, including me. Thankfully I have it under control to be at a healthy weight and lose weight when I need to, but some of these people have absolutely tragic childhoods or life experiences and I don’t blame them at all for coping in that way. I could 100% see myself in that position if I had been through what they have been through.

    However, those people are self aware that they are unhealthy. The people I can’t stand are the “healthy at every size” fat acceptance people. Healthy at every size was SUPPOSED to be that you can make positive health focused changes at any size and there is no point of no return. But it got twisted into I can be morbidly obese and I am still 100% healthy forever. And they even make people feel bad for wanting to lose weight, even if it’s for health reasons. Those people are trash and fall on the same level as antivax people IMO.

    Everyone deserves to be treated with respect, until you start spewing harmful bullshit and then I will judge you as much as I want.
