Gave that a shot, was set to undefined. Thanks for the suggestion! Will see if that clears things up

Reddit had a sub called creepywikipedia for this kind of thing. It shut down for the protest and stayed shut down. Might be worth recreating by someone more inclined than myself, who is very lazy

A next gen patch console patch for rdr2 as well would probably be hoping for too much but I like to dream

I have an American toilet but a Japanese toilet seat (toto washlet) and it is pretty awesome. It has a heated seat, a bidet with a built in on demand water heater (you only have to hook up cold water), it has adjustable nozzle length to make sure it gets the right spot, has soft lighting so I can use the toilet at night without turning on the bathroom lights, it has modes to oscillate and pulsate the stream which is much better than it sounds, it pre-mists the toilet when you walk up so your poop doesn’t stick to the bowl, it lifts the lid when you walk up and can lift/lower the seat with a button press, it has 2 user profiles so you can set up your preferred heating settings and nozzle length and such, and it drys your butt off when you’re done with a blow dryer. If you buy a fancy toilet it can auto flush too but I only got this bc I had a contractor friend who sold it to me for $350 bc some rich dude ordered too many for their house remodel and they were selling it as overstock or whatever. I couldn’t justify changing out a perfectly good toilet. It was already too much to spend but now if it breaks I don’t know what I’ll do because a new one is like $800-1200 and I am so used to having my ass blow dried lol

Been to a few psychiatrists and work with a lot as a clinician. For a first meeting you should expect to give a lot of history including familial history, treatment history, substance use history, medication history, diagnosis history, trauma history, developmental history, etc. Skip any that aren’t relevant to you and if you can’t give tons of info that’s okay (eg if you don’t have tons of info on your early development just give what you can, you can skip substance use if you’ve never had issues with it, etc). description of presenting problems including what you’re coming in for but also cooccurring physical issues that may be relevant (eg chronic ailments like diabetes/gerd/migraines) as well as sleep quality.

You may not touch on all of this, it may include other stuff, depends on the doctor. Each practitioner has their own personal approach but those are the broad strokes. Assuming you’re in the USA remember your rights as a consumer: you have the right to know why you are being prescribed a medication, you have the right to know it’s side effects, and you have the right to know alternatives to it. But at the same time remember side effects aren’t always experienced and for some people being aware of them makes them more likely to occur (I am one of those people fwiw)

Thank god! I got this one years ago but good to know. It’s built like a fucking tank. I’m pretty sure it will last forever based on that. what I’ve read online seems to confirm it but good to know there’s a backup. Plus anything I can do to avoid Amazon is always excellent

My old person trait is that I think we need less acronyms

That said I do agree with you

It’s okay, my other old person trait is teasing people on the internet don’t take it too personally

Using the memmy app and it displays the desired way you describe so it must be possible
