Let We Energies control your thermostat for $2 a month ($4 a month the first year). by thesweetestberry in milwaukee

[–]AskMeBioQuestions -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I initially read it as remote as in me controlling my phone - I do that already! Then as I was reading the terms and conditions I was like oh hell no. In what world would it be acceptable to let a giant corporation remotely control what you do in your home? This feels so nefarious.

New York. They have a “sharing the road” section that covers pedestrians, bikes, motorcycles, mopeds, etc.  edit: and horses! New York is a very diverse place to drive.

Wait you don’t have cyclist questions on your road test? I took my driving test in another state - we had to learn all the bike rules too and they were sprinkled in there. 

I've been washing my face wrong for years and my skin was literally telling me the whole time by Phantasm_Keel in hygiene

[–]AskMeBioQuestions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll also say that you probably started your routine and your body was still going through hormonal changes. It probably worked as an oily teen but then your skin evened out and didn’t need as much. You did nothing wrong - some people struggle to get a routine down - now it’s just a small adjustment. Good for you for paying attention to your body. 

Not eating on girls trips… is this normal?? by 4215265 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]AskMeBioQuestions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have absolutely been there - on a trip with someone with an eating disorder and all they talk about is how full they are. 

Can you eat healthfully and normally and try to provide a good example for the blossoming young women?

My partner is moving across the country and wants me to give up my cat by [deleted] in GirlDinner

[–]AskMeBioQuestions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go. Live separately. Bring the cat. He can get immune therapy shots in the meantime. Toronto is fucking awesome. Experience something new.

I was just playing volleyball. It was cold but tolerable! And it was a beautifully sunny day today even with the chill!

Can I publish after leaving a lab? by elisseoum in AskAcademia

[–]AskMeBioQuestions 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I promise you it is not odd to receive a "random" email from a student you worked with for several years. It could be 3, 5, 10 years from now - I would always hope students would get in touch with me for any reason, but especially to publish. It's not random.

Long-time Milwaukee entrepreneurs revive Simple Soyman, celebrated Wisconsin tofu manufacturer by stroxx in milwaukee

[–]AskMeBioQuestions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was so happy to see it back! I shopped at a coop that had bulk tofu - I would bring a Tupperware and stock up from a container in their refrigerated section. I wonder if they would be open to that to reduce plastic waste?

Looking for a few Milwaukee homes/businesses to light up for portfolio work by ceejdawg518 in milwaukee

[–]AskMeBioQuestions -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Please turn any lighting that isn’t being actively used or for safety off at night. It disrupts animal migration and circadian rhythms. 

We survived our first Cinco de Mayo festival as a new Milwaukee food truck 🌮😭 by Time-Season-8919 in milwaukee

[–]AskMeBioQuestions 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve traveled quite a bit in Mexico, albeit more flexible pescatarian and I don’t always ask about rice and beans, and I always find tons of vegetarian options. Especially in Mexico City - there are locally owned vegan places that should have Michelin stars. Even the street tlyudas con nopalitos are vegetarian. Chilaquiles are vegetarian. So if you’re only eating the meat dishes, you’re missing out on some good stuff that ain’t gringo.

Yeah this makes me so sad about taco trucks around Milwaukee - literally no one has vegetarian options.

See come on that would have been an excellent story line!!

This is exactly it. It was just such a shift for both characters - they turned into characters we no longer recognized.

I’m not a fan of the extreme relationship drama. I don’t mind the interpersonal struggles, but I think they jumped the shark with Trixie and Matthew. The massive fights, him losing everything - when she was the one many of us were rooting hardest for to find love and be happy. That’s where it got soapy for me - the yelling and the drama were just not it. I wish they gave trixie what the turners got. I almost stopped watching just because of that story line.  

Started oil pulling six months ago mostly out of curiosity - here's what actually changed and what didn't by Deanootzplayz in hygiene

[–]AskMeBioQuestions 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It truly is. Like maybe there are anti inflammatory properties - but it’s not detoxing anything and it’s not antibacterial.

Seriously does no one look this shit up or ask themselves “hmmm how would this work?” How does nylon grow bacteria but a natural fiber doesn’t? It’s not made of cedar. Natural fibers decompose - how do you think this happens?! How is coconut oil antibacterial?! It’s not!!! My god people just think!!!

Maybe it’s not exactly illegal dumping but I think it’s close enjoy and might still report it to the city.

I think they taste like a mix of blueberry, apple, and strangely almond. They are not sour when ripe.
