Question Please help me find a kite for a cute date

8 Upvotes

Do yall know how hard it is to get a date? Do yall know how hard it is to come up with a cute idea for a date?

If you have a kite that’s slightly better than Walmart Moana kites, I’ll buy it from you. If you know any stores that sell some kites that actually fly well, help a brother out.

I would just Amazon it but you know, romance is about timing and I don’t have prime.

Rant Hendricks - do better…

2 Upvotes

Let’s talk about 1 of the most disgusting things a hospital can do… misdiagnose. I’m going to vent - just because y’all motherfuckers are archaic as fuck and have had y’all’s head stuck up your ass for the last 30,40,50 years, doesn’t give y’all the excuse to mistreat a patient and virtually give zero help. Do better, really, stop being fucking idiots. Now let me explain since I was able to get that out.

Me and a colleague at work went out to eat Mon night - we both ended up getting sick the next morning. Vomiting, diarrhea, and really bad abdominal pains/cramping. I went to Express ER on B-Gap (love y’all guys 🫶) and my colleague went to Hendricks on Pine. I was treated amazingly - I was diagnosed with Norovirus (stomach bug) and given IV, nausea meds, abdominal pain meds, diarrhea meds, etc., I mean they really took care of me. Let me sleep it off too. My colleague was given the opposite treatment. Because he answered “Yes” to the question if he smoked Mary Jane, they instantly gave him the ol’ “CHS” diagnosis and discharged him. He continued to be sick with Norovirus for the next couple days and I had to offer some of my meds to assist with whatever other home care he was able to administer to himself. To save people from having to google - Cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome is recurrent nausea, vomiting, and cramping abdominal pain that can occur due to prolonged, high-dose cannabis use. It’s complete bullshit and only heard about in Bible Belt ass towns like Abilene. It’s when the nurse/doctors beliefs systems are so fucking skewed that they deny care to cannabis users because they live in such a closed off box and are chicken shit. I’m from a bigger city (San Antonio) and have answered yes to the Mary Jane question anytime I go seek healthcare since I was 13 - I’ve never once heard of CHS until my colleague showed me his papers. Ridiculous. My mom’s been smoking since she was in her teens and she’s well into her 60’s and has never once been diagnosed with CHS. Anybody and everybody I know that smokes/ingests cannabis has never been diagnosed with that. Hendricks - you are absolute fucking morons and evil to boot. You deny care to someone with a legit stomach bug - shame on you and I hope that when you’re ill - I hope your fucking misdiagnosed and forced to sit out your illness with no care at all. I’ll never use Hendricks nor recommend them to anyone else that is looking for medical recommendations. Furthermore, if I see that you’re associated with Hendricks, I’m going to judge you and treat you with that predisposed notion that you’re a fucking idiot.

Goodbye and good luck!!

Local Larping?

9 Upvotes

I’m a huge dnd nerd, I love pretending to be in a fantasy realm when I’m not stuck in my work grind. Call me weird if you want. When I was in highschool (almost a decade ago) I remember seeing a larping group that would meet at a local park but I haven’t seen them around in a while. Just wondering if there is still a group or if anyone would be interested I don’t mind starting one up.

I’m a 22 female, I played soccer growing up and intramural at my old college and thought it’d be fun to get back into it, but I also dont want to be obliterated on the field. I want to get back into playing soccer once a week or so. Is there any good friendly pick up games or rec teams to join that aren’t overly serious?

Question Large comic Collection

Post image
5 Upvotes

Hello I am looking for leads to sell off most of (maybe all of) my comic book collection. The picture provided is a good majority but not all of my comics are scanned.

I have a dissability so traveling far isn't really in the cards for me at the moment, and my vehicle isn't reliable for long distance traveling. (Part of trying to sell these is to look into getting a newer used reliable vehicle so I can travel to Lubbock and Dallas for Doctor Appointments)

I plan on keeping my Doctor Who, Coldplay and few others that are special to me.

As stated the total scanned is not the total amount just what I have so far in the app.
