Mag lite I found at the thrift store for 3 dollars

Found this years ago but didn't know about this sub.

It's now my go to around the house, it's heavy as all hell but I converted the bulb to LED and it's crazy bright now. Big ole scratch on it sucks but for 3 bucks I can't complain

Most hated type of message of all time.

I'm sure my messages came off as rude but I'm so sick of people trying to haggle me on shipping costs I have no control over. I just blocked the dude but I'm so sick of these messages

Convince me it's safe to take Buspar 5mg and Trazodone 50mg together

So I'm currently taking 50mg of Trazodone a night for sleep issues and my doctor prescribed me Buspar (5mg) to try and help with anxiety as well. When I picked up my Buspar from the pharmacy, the pharmacist warned me about serotonin syndrome and since then I haven't been able to bring myself to take them together. I know I shouldn't be doubting my doctors judgment and I hate to be one of those "I'll do my own research" people but I just keep reading and making myself worried about this combo.

I'm just really paranoid I'm going to have issues and have to find someone to rush me to the hospital in the middle of the night. Ironic to have so much anxiety about medication for anxiety I suppose. I'm pretty much just looking for other people's experience and to know if anyone else has this combo.

I know I have such a low dosage and it realistically isn't a problem but I just still haven't been able to make myself take it.

Any mention of if we'll still be able to have multiple save files?

In SoD2 I love the ability to have multiple saves to do challenge runs and whatnot and I feel like those kind of weird challenges are a lot of what keeps the game alive still today. I just can't find any mention of it anywhere and was wondering if it's in the cards to allow for multiple saves?

New to all this and trying to do my first set up. Could I use a car inverter?

This is my first time learning with solar and I'm trying to set up something small just to run a 50 or 100 watt heater. I believe I need a 150 watt inverter (correct me if I'm wrong) my issue is I can't find a non automotive inverter for that small amount of wattage. Can I just buy one of these automotive inverters and snip off the cigarette plug? Or is there a place I could buy a small inverter like this?

​

Thank you in advance

Will planaria killer get rid of blackworms too?

I have a serious planaria infestation in my puffer tank and want to use a planaria killer treatment (with betel nut extract) My concern is the two things I feed my puffers are snails and blackworms, I know the treatment kills off snails but will it effect the blackworms? My puffers will only eat live food so I don't want to nuke all of my snails AND worms and have them not eat anymore

Thoughts on a Gold and pearl gourami in a 40 gallon tank? Or possibly 2 golds?

​

Gouramis are absolutely one of my favorite fish and I currently have a 3-4 inch gold gourami in a 40 gallon tank. I was wondering if anyone has experience keeping a pair of them in a tank this size. I was specifically thinking of adding a Pearl gourami because I've always liked the way they look.

For what it's worth, the gold gourami is very peaceful and I don't notice him nipping or chasing other fish. I've seen very mixed results about keeping 2 gourami in a tank of this size, some people saying it works well and some saying it's an awful idea so I was just looking for some personal experience.

The tank has a lot of taller plants like jungle val and some taller sword plants, which I've heard helps with reducing aggression

Thoughts on 2008-2017 Buick regals?

My current car is dying and I really like the look of this generation of regals. I drive a ton for work and I don't want to run an expensive car into the ground so I'm only looking to spend around 5k. It seems most of them around me for 5k have 100k+ miles. Whats considered high miles for these cars? Is it even worth getting one or are they crap? Any specific model years to avoid? Just any advice would be great. Thanks in advance.

Alright I did something stupid, how can I blend this better?

I was trying to use an iron on patch on a torn up section on my cheap polyester seats without thinking and burned this spot with the iron. Obviously I can't unburn plastic but how can I blend this better to make it look a little less horrible?

Its a 600 dollar car so I'm not stressing too hard but just wondering if I have any options

Dude accepted my offer days ago and has just been radio silence since then. It was very recently created user and only this item posted so I was already suspicious but it was a good deal so I went for it.

As you can tell, he hasn't gotten back with a single message or shipped it.

At what point should I give up and just contact mercari? Might be best for this guy if it just gets cancelled because I'm ready to give a nasty review if it ever gets to me.

Sorry if some of the language in this post is weird, this subreddit has half the damn words in the English language blacklisted and won't let me post if I use certain words
