Issues putting on without tearing

So I have pullups (Abena M3) that fit when I ordered them. I've now gained some weight. They do fit still somewhat when I get them on, but they tear a bit.

Does anyone know how to put on pullups that are slightly too small on without them tearing?

They tear now on the left side when putting them on. They didn't do that before. They fit well when I bought them.

I'm going to buy more next month and size up, and size up on tab diapers too potentially (I'll figure this out, don't need help on this). But I'm trying to work with what I have right now. Money is tight.

Alison's father and brother?

I remember seeing both her father and brother in the revelation epidode, before the time jump. That they were ||paralysed and drugged||. Charlotte said she was going to do so.

I remember it being implied that they were ||killed||. They were never seen again after that episode. And after that time, it showed Alison living in the empty home without anyone.

I just googled it, and several results say they lived, and imply that they both lived away.

I'm so confused. That's so confusing.

Husky 3 ft. Toilet Drain Snake Auger for Clog Removal?

How effective is this snake auger? Is it effective for clogs that have dried?

If not, does anyone have any recommendations for other ones?

My budget is very low. I can't spend over $50-$80 on one. My max budget is $20-$30.

Passport photos at USPS

So I am going to be applying to renew my passport by mail, as I'm submitting a name change court order.

I'm considering making a photo appointment at USPS. Does anyone know if USPS is able to staple the passport photo onto a printed application?

I read that stapling is a requirement and cannot just be stapled or in the envelope when renewing. And I do not have the hand coordination to perfectly staple the picture in the box. I also have tremors.

I've always renewed my passports in person, so I've never renewed online or by mail before. The two I've had, I got when I was a minor. So this is my first time renewing elsewhere.

I really don't want to mess up the application form.

Private health insurance?

So I'm looking into private health insurance in Malta, as I may be moving there for school on a student visa. I don't believe I will be eligible for public health, so I am looking into private health insurance.

So I am looking to find a private health insurance company that doesn't exclude coverage for pre-existing conditions.

I've been looking at them, and a lot seem to exclude that.

I also tried getting a quote on an insurance company, but it declined my policy because I have Bipolar disorder.

I'm from the US and it's not legal here to exclude pre-existing conditions. So this is unfamiliar and caught me off guard. And I'm trying to navigate it.

But how things in the US are is beside the point. Not relevant.

Does anyone know of any private health insurance companies don't exclude for pre-existing conditions?

Copper landlines?

So I read that copper landlines have been widely been shut down. But I am curious if there are some places where copper landlines are still available, and phone companies that still offer that service?

I know this is probably a long shot question.

I'm planning to move to Malta in the future.

Are there any flashlights that make IM injections easier?

So I'm trans and I inject estradiol valerate intramuscularly weekly for my HRT. I try turning on all the lights, turn on my phone flashlight, use a headlamp.

I've been having even more difficulty looking for, and avoiding, my nerve endings/veins.

My concussion last year somewhat worsened my vision and tolerance of lights.

I've also started drawing with a sharpie to mark where I'm injecting, so I don't lose or forget it.

Lately, I have been marking the spot, and my caregiver does my injections. But that doesn't mean I don't have difficulties marking it.

So now I'm wondering if anyone has anyone any recommendations for lamps or flashlights that make it easier to see when doing my injections?

Having issues with my Depocolor paint marker

So I have a Depocolor acrylic paint marker (black if that's relevant), and I'm trying to figure out if it's clogged or dried out.

I'm working on a project. So it started reducing with how much it was putting out, less and less.

I shook it a lot, pushed in the tip upside down and right side up. Tried to follow the instructions.

I tried googling troubleshooting. But only found generic troubleshooting for paint markers in general.

Now nothing is coming out. I'm not sure if it's empty, clogged, or dried out.

It was very difficult to get any out. Now, nothing comes out.

I tried wiping off the tip with a paper towel, and then nothing came out.

I tried the depocolor manufacturer site, but the instructions were vague, and was unsure if they were for all of their paint markers, or if it applied to the acrylic ones.

Not sure if I ruined it.

Not sure if I should just get a new one, or if it can be fixed. Not sure if I used it all or not. One guide somewhere said to remove the paint and put it in isopropyl alcohol, but I'm not sure if the tip can even come out.

Does anyone have any tips on troubleshooting?

TL/DR: Need troubleshooting on if the Depocolor acrylic paint marker is empty, clogged, dried out, etc. And if there's any fixes to it.

Trans person renewing passport

So I'm trans and I'm considering updating my US passport soon. I realised that I probably can't get a visa to move to another country in my legal name while using my deadname passport.

So I'm going to have to update my passport from my former legal name to my current legal name. I know I can no longer change my gender marker on the passport.

I assume I'll have to send in my legal name change court order?

So I've heard of many cases where the US State Department refuses to send passports to some trans people.

I wanted to see if there's any way to more guarantee that I actually get my passport.

Would I need to change my gender marker on my birth certificate back to the original marker, in order to send it in? Like if that'd be more helpful in my case, to change the gender marker back.

The gender marker on my birth certificate is currently X.

I've seen people talk about the federal government requesting that people show proof of original birth sex in order to issue the passport.

Thank you. This is all so confusing and scary.

Slowing down my hands?

I'm not sure if this is a good place to ask this.

​

I don't know what kind of tremors I have. I don't see my new neurologist until late September.

​

But I've had tremors around the year, probably since my head injury last year.

​

Been on most of my meds for years, but I've told doctors I don't believe they were caused by psych meds.

​

I've been on a beta blocker, propranolol, for the tremors.

​

My tremors have been crescendoing over time.

​

Over the past 5 days, I've had them significantly increase. Sometimes my arms have tremors, it seems.

​

I've tried a lot of things I can do at home.

​

I want to slow down my hands and reduce my tremors.

​

Does anyone have any suggestions on this?

​

​

​

​

​

​

Especially because I do my own injections for HRT.

​

I especially want to temporarily.

​

​

Maybe there are exercises or resources to reduce them?

​

​

I've asked my pcp, and she doesn't have any as needed medications or alternative meds.

​

So I want to look elsewhere for advice on them.

​

​

​

I'm not trying to ask for medical advice. I just want to see if there are other things I can do outside of that..

It's been exhausting.

​

I keep dropping things. Keep pressing the wrong things on my phone. I wish it never happened. I just want things to try to reduce them.

​

Got so bad that I went to the er yesterday. Along with another issue not relevant.

​

​

So, if anyone has any advice, thank you.

Wax clogging on dab pen

So this cart in dab pen and my last cart, including my disposable pen, it keeps forming this waxy "film," which is a lot of work to clear up. I've used my finger nail, I've tried tooth picks.

​

​

I haven't had a dab pen for at least 2 years. I've never had this happen, but had it happen with these (current cart, last cart, and current disposable.

​

Why is it doing that? And how to stop it, reduce it, or manage it?

​

This it very strange.

Copper wire landline ports

So I was told by Century Link that my apartment is in network with COX copper wire landline ports.

But when I called COX, they said they no longer offer copper wire service, and and they are VOIP only.

I've been on a quest to get a copper wire landline.

Does anyone know if another company is now managing their copper wire ports?
