Bloomberg : "Donald says we should vote for him because the economy was great before the virus. Huh?"

I just had my first ultrasound and they’re telling me I’m only 6w3d… but I really thought I was 7w6d based on my last period and conception date (I’ve been tracking everything with Flo). It feels off to me bc I’ve tested positive for 4 weeks now. How do you know what to trust?

My new agency’s healthcare plan only has ONE physician in NYC listed as in-network... is a plan this limited the norm?!

Hi fishes ,

Off topic post .

I am in need of a ergonomic chair as my neck and back is paining a lot , currently I use plastic chair 😅😅.

Can anyone recommend best ergonomic chair which you are using under 20k with good neck and back support ?

I recently got diagnosed with ADHD. I'm 31 and found this only because b school and post mba consulting job was/is much more challenging than anything I did before. What I'm confused about is that even as a teenager I could read entire books overnight. But the last two years of high school I started selectively zoning out and the problem has become worse since. I just realised it now. My doctor has suggested treating depression (I was also unaware of this) with Wellbutrin first (contd)

Starting second trimester, has anyone had really bad upper back pain like inbtwn shoulder blades? If so, pregnancy pillow help? Also starting to get pain lower abdomen/stomach. Think it’s everything stretching inside, but didn’t know if something could help!

Hope everyone is doing well and happy, recovering from the heart break ❤️

I’ve been depressed for years now and this past week I lost a dog I’ve had for 15 years; he was one of the only bright spots in my life and I’ve just found it so hard to focus or motivate myself on anything after this. I genuinely feel like I’m at rock bottom, Idk if I’m crazy to feel that way bc of a dog but I used to be able to control this and put up a front but now my depression and anxiety are starting to leak into my work conversations completely unintentionally, I wish this would stop :(

So....animal crossings, anyone?

We can’t have classroom management without taking care of ourselves first. Rest. Even if it’s for 2 minutes. We close our eyes and reset.

Have you heard of any success story with natural cycle IUI?

Is genetic carrier screening prior to starting an ivf cycle necessary? I tested and found some disorders. Now my RE won’t start my cycle until my partner is tested. They are saying they will have to do special PGT tests if we are carriers of the same disorder. I am confused. I thought this type of testing was optional and usually recommended if you are using a donor. My guess is that they are booked and pushing me to the Jan cycle. Thoughts?

We recently started the fertilization process with frozen eggs. I had 11 frozen and all survived the thaw but only 3 turned into embryos. We are waiting to see how many get to the blast state. Does any one know where I can find statistics on what the typical attrition / success rates are?

Why does my therapist make me feel worse almost every time after therapy? Is this for real ?

Anyone else experience of a lack of passion for the job in this Covid world? I just feel like I’m excited about what I’m teaching because so many techniques are not at my disposal. I also feel exhausted by the mask. I’m all for wearing them, but wearing it all day drains me. Any helpful ideas to reignite the passion?

Just started Zoloft. Can I drink? I know it’s I’ll advised, but will it destroy my liver or just add to the depression?

First in-person retreat in a while coming up and first for me at this particular firm. Several people have mentioned that much of the bonding etc happens while drinking. I am newly sober and now worried about being in this environment, any tips for making it through the weekend? Similar experiences?

How much did you all pay for the 20 week ultrasound out of pocket? My 12 week ultrasound cost me $600 so I am guessing the 20 week one would be even more expensive. I have the high deductible plan from United healthcare.

Every time I see “congrats” in an email subject my heart rate ricochets. Just got heart palpitations from a glance at a “Congrats for unlocking a new member discount” email 🤦🏼‍♀️

30 minutes into a two-hour review, I rescheduled it because I said I had a migraine, but it was really because I had the Kars-4-Kids song stuck in my head.

I’m a private immigration attorney whose interested into transitioning into a high level federal government attorney position in the future (not in this administration). Ideally, I’d love to work in the solicitor general’s office.

I’m only a year or two into practice and am wondering if there are any tips to best position myself for this type of position? I don’t anticipate making any moves that way for at least 5 more years. No clerking experience or law review, so that’s -2 points for me

The counsellor who I was assigned is my SM. But now SM is asking to change counsellor to my manager suddenly before appraisal. They are saying HR mistakenly assigned SM as counsellor while joining.This is common? I just want to resign frm gds

Does your company use a ticketing system to manage emails received by the legal department? What works and doesn’t work your team?

Would you strongly advise against going in-house right after a state court clerkship? (No law firm experience in law school either). I don’t know if I want to become an in-house forever. Would it be difficult to get a law firm job at a later time?

Anyone visited the updated Admirals Club in CLT? I've avoided connecting through there until the construction was complete. Was the 6-month shutdown worth it?

Anyone worked at multiple FAANG companies? I’m trying to choose between 2 and can’t decide.

Is it better to buy stocks and options around 10 or after 1 pm central time to avoid the market rush/high at 9 and 12?

‘You won’t be safe in Biden’s America’ -says a man who is the president whilst these events are occurring.
How is trump making the case that 1)the president has something to do with local incidents and that 2)Biden is somehow responsible and he, the president, is not responsible?

Assuming the following holds tomorrow, I expect we will get a call of AZ around 11:15am ET, and NV and PA around 12:15pm ET.

AZ: next batch of Maricopa ballots 55% or less for Trump
NV: Biden wins >60% of next batch of ballots in Clark County
PA: Biden extends lead beyond 35K ballots

My intuition is that the networks want to call all three to provide extra margin for error given the stakes and fine margins.

Is it wrong that we idolize FAANG? Should the govt intervene in business and privacy?

Hi all - just joined the bowl and planning on voting this Nov for first time. Not a Trump fan but not trying be biased as well. Can both sides explain to me the reason why people should keep trump for another year vs a new president? Thanks

Just can’t wait for this reality star-as-a-president experiment is over

It's funny how Democrats are getting absolutely rocked in this election but still want to make jokes. Must be in that numb phase

Is Trump saying that he’s innocent and therefore so is Brett Kavanaugh really a good strategy?

Rs, do you agree that the Trump administration should immediately begin to provide the Biden administration with classified material, especially on national security matters and the pandemic?

Been getting some interesting ads in Georgia. Got a letter about how Jon Ossoff is going to destroy Georgia’s economy and attacking him and his character. This was generated by David Perdue.

Ossoffs response? Bring up all the ridiculousness Perdue has done and how he’s left Georgia in a worse position. Didn’t say Ossoffs name once, just said get rid of Perdue.

Republicans go low, democrats play smart.

I got more in AIP than Trump paid in taxes 😂😂
