I recently had an issue with an Uber ride, and could not get through to a person. I couldn’t even get the AI chatbot to give me a phone number. It politely told me to get lost. I guess it’s just the lesser of two evils, but I uninstalled the app and switched to Lyft.

I loved that show so much, I was so heartbroken when it was cancelled.

I even react to cassava flour, which is supposed to be allergen friendly. Other culprits could be yeast or nickel-containing foods.

The most frustrating thing has been that every single test has come back normal.

I’m happy to DM if you’d like to chat about it.

A screenshot of text describing sensitivity to grains as a long Covid symptom.

I’ve developed a lot of similar issues. This might be a clue… it could be a symptom of long Covid or post-viral illness. https://www.goodforyouglutenfree.com/celiac-disease-outbreak-covid/

While they might not know how to bypass it, they should check the intranet for how to request account help. I think there might be a path forward.

Thanks for the summary. Glad to see that hasn’t changed!

Thank you for this! It’s simple enough even I can follow it.

One of my favorites. I smashed that car in the background.

Hashtags don’t work yet, but I believe they’re on the roadmap.

Also, welcome! πŸ‘‹

Another favorite look: sequin + blazer. I’ve rented this one and it’s also comfortable + stretchy. No pockets though.

Right? And pockets!

If you end up trying it ask a friend for a referral code. Or I can DM you a link on birdsite.

Second best thing is you don’t have crap cluttering up your closet you’re never going to wear again because by the time the next fancy pants event rolls around you’re yet a different size and your tastes have changed

Best thing is most items on RTR has user reviews with photos of real people wearing the items. And you can sort by measurements similar to yours.

Also, dunno how you feel about shiny but sequin sweatpants are a thing…

It’s a great way to evaluate what you even like anymore.

Pre-Covid I’d squeeze myself into stupid dresses and high heels. Post-Covid if it’s not stretchy I won’t last more than half an hour.

Rent the runway. If you sign up for a high-end membership for a month you can order a bunch of different options to try on. They event have a decent selection of suits although your size in top + bottom might not be available.
