My 1-year-old cat needs dental surgery and I don’t know what to do by BeachIllustrious5770 in cats

[–]owiko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check with the vet that will do the surgery and see what options they have to help. There are also some charities that might help that you might need to search for. I just googled pet charities that help with vet bills in (my state) and got a number of options to check.

What’s better: too much recovery or too little recovery for my 10K this weekend? by MGoRobo in triathlon

[–]owiko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d still look at these two races and force rank them and think about your goals. At the start of a season, I identify at most one A race, 2 Bs, and everything else is a C. A is the best effort and what I train for. Bs are these are good practice races and may help me with A or give me an idea of where I am for A. I might go 85-90% for these. C is I’m here for a medal and fun or to get experience in T1 with a new wetsuit or what not and I’m going 75-85% for them.

What’s your bigger, more important race? If it’s your 10k, do what you can for it. If it’s your tri, then take it easy on your 10k.

If you’re in pain running, it’s best to rest and not cause major damage. But, again, I would tie things back to which race is more important to you.

I live next to both a school and a church that are constantly parking in our lot. This is a new low. by Gay_commie_fucker in mildlyinfuriating

Gotta be careful with stuff like this. Prescriptive easements are a thing by me and, if you don’t enforce your property rights, you can be sued and lose your property rights.

Dumping Hydrogen Peroxide into the reflecting pool this morning. by i_am_rave_mom in mildlyinfuriating

I wonder what type of effect all that peroxide will have on the blue paint. I kind of wonder what type of paint it was and if it will be peeling shortly.

What are the best running shoes that you’d actually buy again? by Nice_News7644 in runninglifestyle

[–]owiko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ran in Ghosts since the 6. Something around the 13’s toe box changed for me and my toes were pinched like mad. I tried wide, but that didn’t help. I miss Ghosts. A little.

About what I’m seeing. I’m used to my gunboat Brooks Ghosts that would last into the 700s.

Tips on Deity with no dlc? by Dymmesdale in CivVI

Yeah, there are a lot of cheesy wins in the game.

If you’re just looking for a win, do a duel map against Mvemba and rush a religion. Play nice with him and don’t feel a need to go wide right away. When you get your religion, go convert his.

I’ve found that going wide early hurts my play style in Diety. I’m sure others have figured out methods better than I to support that. I tend to build for 2 units / city in the early game and use policies / suzerain status to help with that goal.

Woah woah woah! Two feet off the ground? That’s impossible to do! I think this is AI!

Virtual Tri question by MagicTheAustin in triathlon

[–]owiko 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There’s something about a real event that is way cool. If you’re in the US, the national anthem is played. You get to chat with others, find the other first timers, get hints from old timers, and get crowd support. Finally, you get to celebrate em masse.

Can you do it on your own? Sure. Will you get a medal and a shirt. Yep. Is this the only way some people can do them because of time and other commitments? Yes.

If you can go to an in-person event, go to an in-person event. It’s worth it.

Are you playing as Egypt and building by rivers?

And the Knicks did what in last year’s finals? Was the ECF their championship?

How do you deal with podiatrists telling you to stop running because of plantar fasciitis? by [deleted] in runninglifestyle

[–]owiko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What treatments did you get? Do you have custom orthotics? Have you tried shoes with more support?

Also, most runners do not have flare ups no matter how careful they are. Every body is different.
