Isn't this an illegal abortion due to care?

A speed limit sign or a mile marker sign. Hiding in plain sight.

Yeah it's pretty caked on. At this point if you want to clean it, let it dry out and then use some oven cleaner, it comes in a can sort of like spray paint.

Read the directions and follow them just like an oven. Except that you can use plastic bristled brush to agitate and running hot water to wash it off.

Post a picture of it, the basket and the mesh.

If it's really bad then like someone else suggested: get some oven degreaser from the store, spray it down, let it sit for 10 minutes and wash off with hot water. Try not to breath the stuff, it's nasty.

But you should be cleaning it weekly. Warm it up for a minute or two, then with folded paper towels wipe it out over a trash can. Leaving a light coating is actually to your advantage, it will keep the new stuff from sticking.

Appreciate the feedback. Thanks for the good vibes.

I found being aware is the most important. Seems like you're taking a healthier approach (not calling alcohol healthy) than most people where it's gotten out of hand, my self included.

I get the lack of hanging out. My drinking definitely spiked during the COVID lockdowns. Still trying to get back to a previous normal with people I hung out with.

I haven't drank in 8 days now, I can definitely tell you that my head is so much more clear and I've probably saved at least 30-50$.

Thanks, appreciate the thoughts.

Nothing worth having comes easy. Looking forward to those challenges.

I've been in that boat for a while; Just not ready to pull the plug.

I've been subscribed here since the beginning, carried over from Reddit. Just reading and listening to people's stories. The check-ins didn't really do much for me.

I consider myself lucky. Even though I may have been damaging my own body, haven't caused physical harm to anyone else. Just a few of my relationships suffered.

When the time is right, I hope you can do it too.

I'm starting to realize, most of it is habit for me.

Fine something new to replace the bad habit with. Physical put some seltzer waters/ for another non-alcoholic drink where you keep your alcohol, then next time you go for it you have a choice.

I finally got sick and tired of nonstop drinking with no buzz and constantly having my stomach hurt.

  • Stressed? Drink.
  • Mad at someone dumb someone did at work? Drink.
  • Mad at a way my partner did/ said something? Drink.
  • Walk by where I hid my alcohol? Drink.
  • Can't sleep? Drink.
  • Play video games, oh it would be more fun if I... Drink.

I went and saw my doctor and told them that I'm not interested in programs but I am interested in quitting. After some back and forth talk they agreed to prescribe me Naltrexone, Omeprazole and Clonidine.

So far on day 4 with only little desire of drinking, realizing a lot of it is/ was habits.

Mostly doing ok, except for the sleep. Clonidine works great to take the edge off and pretty good for the anxiety.

Sleep however will probably take time to fix. I have found that I'm getting these micro seizures is the only way I can explain it. And mind racing. In the middle of sleep I will just jolt, as if energy went through my body. And then have trouble falling asleep, with random muscles twitching/shooting energy. I am curious if anyone else had this.

But but I am on the road to recovery. I'm not interested in drinking this poison anymore. I will miss getting buzzed and not looking forward to social anxiety.

You've fought past the fear and anxiety; then become so comfortable that you don't seem to remember that fear.

Seems like they didn't clean up very well since there was product spilling 0.o

I see the /s , but I remember hosting 16 people lobbies with 5 Mbps. Its not about bandwidth, but more throughput. Yes, some overhead will cause bandwidth issues, but most of it is THROUGHPUT (ping/ latency).

 

I hate when the cursor is left in the middle of the screen when play is pressed, but I found that I frequently do it myself...
