Gold bond medicated itch powder, the menthol variety.
Slap it down there, especially after a shower, and you’ll have a good time with a lot less pain.
- Comment on Fanhome to Return with New Starships This Fall with the Titan, Stargazer, and Farragut 1 week ago:
I’ve been doing their enterprise model and pretty happy with it so far.
I’d love if they did a ds9 or defiant
- Comment on The Woman Who Could Smell Parkinson’s | She first noticed the scent on her husband. Now her abilities are helping unlock new research in early disease detection. 2 weeks ago:
I read about this woman years ago and found it fascinating, so it’s great to see an update with the science that’s coming out of the discovery. Really cool stuff, now we just need to find better drugs to treat it.
- Comment on Why do some folks insist they'll only listen to their doctors? 2 weeks ago:
Many people turn their mind off when they encounter a subject matter they don’t know, especially when they have an expert they trust.
Not everyone has the thirst for knowledge to read up on everything.
- Comment on Cat liqueur 2 weeks ago:
Have you owned a baby cat before? They play and then pass out hard. I don’t think this cat is drugged, it’s just really sleepy.
- Comment on Cat liqueur 2 weeks ago:
Unless they drugged the cat, it just looks like a passed out kitten they shoved in a glass.
Baby cats are basically liquid.
- Comment on Futurama | First Look Season 12 | Hulu 3 weeks ago:
Unfortunately yes. The last episode of the season was ok IIRC, but the rest were just garbage. It was really disappointing after being so excited they were back.
- Comment on Futurama | First Look Season 12 | Hulu 3 weeks ago:
Based on season 11, I’m not so sure it is 😢

Humans can be pretty good at exchanging information with only the most subtle body movements.
- Comment on 4ish years ago when I bought a house I was convinced not to get a house inspection, would it be crazy to get one now just to make sure it's all good? 1 month ago:
Or most of the west coast, or pretty much any major city st this point it seems.
- Comment on Fae Farm, Dauntless Studio Phoenix Labs Lays Off Staff, Cancels In-Development Games 1 month ago:
I work here (for a little bit longer at least). Today sucked, lost a lot of really amazing and talented folks on projects that were soooo close to completion. Came completely out of the blue from our crypto-bro overlords.
- Comment on When did the show "Suits" suddenly get popular? 1 month ago:
What’s her face from the show marrying the prince dude, also probably helped.
- Comment on Macklemore Attacks Joe Biden On Pro-Palestine Song "Hind's Hall" 1 month ago:
Check out his earlier album Language of my World. It’s fantastic and a lot less poppy than his modern stuff.
- Comment on Phones have unique phone numbers, why dont computers have unique computer-numbers? 1 month ago:
Intel tried this on the Pentium 3, we all hated it so they stopped.

Ascii numbers?
- Comment on How do I view long screenshots without them being blurry? 2 months ago:
Are you using sync? This is a sync bug.
Open post and tap on the image there, usually works for me.
- Comment on Palia developers lay off a third of staff just weeks after cosy life sim's Steam launch 2 months ago:
They don’t generally have the funding to have multiple games in the pipeline, so that each resource is busy at all times.
It’s a shitty deal for the staff and they should contract more or something instead.

- Comment on Just found out that "pain" is racist. Anyone still trust Big Pharma? 3 months ago:
Many people are unethical assholes. Doctors are people. Going to med school does not automatically make you a good person.

Yes it’s a significant issue.

- Comment on Post was removed on this instance only - is there an appeal process? 5 months ago:
I don’t think I’d call this brigading. For me that means you have users swarming a forum or chat room, whereas this is more of a request for political action.
Their post wasn’t “spam CSIS & CBSA so they cant deal with any other requests”, it was “let them know how you feel”.
- Comment on Post was removed on this instance only - is there an appeal process? 5 months ago:
It was obviously an admin, because there are no lemmy.world mods in that community.
“kinda see why” shouldn’t be enough of a reason for an admin to interfere with a community. If that’s happening, it should be for clear rule violations that can cause legal issues or bring harm to someone.
- Comment on Post was removed on this instance only - is there an appeal process? 5 months ago:
Yes, but we have a post that is political in nature being removed by admins of the largest instance. If this was child porn I wouldn’t be concerned, but this is on a post that I don’t think even violates lemmy.world rules.
I don’t think instance admins should be actioning reports, unless they are in clear violation of instance rules. Reports should be left to the mods of that community. By actioning on reports like this, lemmy.world is effectively acting as a censor, and they control what most lemmy users see.
- Comment on What could be wrong with me? 5 months ago:
Have you considered seeing a doctor about possibly having ADHD or something related?
- Comment on Post was removed on this instance only - is there an appeal process? 5 months ago:
As an admin of lemmy.ca, I’m also curious what justified removal of this post when the community is not hosted or moderated by anyone from lemmy.world.
It makes me deeply uncomfortable to think that outside users are seeing a view of our communities that has been filtered or modified, without having any way to know it is happening.
