- Comment on Do you ever feel full and hungry simultaneously? 6 days ago:
I used to get this sometimes. Turnes out my body doesn’t process fructose well. Look into FODMAPs if none of the other suggestions work for you (usually the FODMAP thing requires an elimination diet, I just lucked out due to weird circumstances)
- Comment on Is playing horror games a good way to get desensitized to fear, or it gonna backfire and make my anxiety worse? 3 weeks ago:
I have anxiety and I’m also into horror. I dunno if it’s helped, but I don’t think it’s made anything worse at least.
- Comment on A real question about trans athletes and records 4 weeks ago:
Wow, the 200m freestyle, the 500m freestyle, and the 1650m freestyle, huh? Did she ever compete in anything else, or were those numbers perhaps cherry-picked to make the situation look more dramatic than it actually is? Because if you look at her results holistically, she’s a very good swimmer, but she’s clearly not dominating 100% of the time the way she’s been portrayed.
At the NCAA competition where Thomas won one (1) race that conservatives cried and shit their pants over, a cis woman named Kate Douglass set 18 new records. Lia Thomas set zero new records. And crunching the rest of the numbers bears this out: she was a good swimmer before and after transition, but she’s not some unbeatable powerhouse that cis women have no chance at winning against.
- Comment on How come glasses for hyperopia/farsightedness (reading glasses) are there on the shelves, but glasses for myopia require a prescription? 4 weeks ago:
I’ve used EyeBuyDirect before and they were alright. It’s been a couple years tho.
- Comment on anyone have personal experience with industrial tourism? 1 month ago:
I’ve been to at least one distillery and a hydroelectric dam. These days, your best bet is probably to just check the website of wherever it is you wanna go to.
