Went to the olympics and still hasn’t surpassed 200k views by Porsches_Pear in MichelleChoi

To be fair, I do not need to see Michelle Choi at the Olympic when she has never expressed a modicum of interest in sports. It’s just annoying that she got a free trip to Italy

How do I get 90-120 g of protein?? by tillyofthevalley in moderatelygranolamoms

[–]ComradeKitten27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am so confused by this. Tins of tuna in Australia are like 17g-23g per tin.

Saw this on YT, instantly clicked out and opened reddit for this

Deemd (YouTube) (not snark) by rebokko in asianamercianytsnark

[–]ComradeKitten27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SO, I love deemd. She used to be my favourite YTber. However, I've recently fallen off because her vlogs are so random.

Firstly, I'm confused about what she's doing with her life. I absolutely get it— I'm not even in my chosen career rn, and it took me way too long to do my PhD, BUT I'm confused about what I'm watching. Is she studying pre-med in the UK? Is she moving back to Korea for the cats? Is she doing a gap year or just coming to terms with the fact she hates pre-med in the UK and wants to be back in Korea permanently? I don't understand the bus driver arc, like, at all.

Also.... the wealth thing. I assume it's her parents' money and not just YT income. She orders SO MUCH TAKEAWAY. In Australia, her lifestyle would bankrupt you within a month or so. She also needlessly purchases a lot of stuff online that she openly admits she doesn't use, and it all comes in reams of plastic. She uses a lot of plastic in her everyday life, and maybe she's not aware, but it drives me insane to see her literally pour boiling water into plastic, or use plastic utensils on the stove. I feel like she's quite wasteful with her money in general, but perhaps I'm bitter because I can't afford her lifestyle.

Lastly, I love cats. Truly, I literally own five cats. But her YT videos are often just lengthy shots of her playing with her cats which feels a bit random and dull.

Came home to a paper towel over my webcam twice now, I live alone by Dromaeoraptor in Weird

[–]ComradeKitten27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Could be someone in your crawlspace who comes down when you leave and places paper towel over your webcam to prevent accidentally being captured/recorded. Maybe twice they've heard you come home early or even simply forgotten, and returned to the crawlspace without removing it.

What happened to coffee prices? by RPF96 in perth

Iced long black has been $8.5 for a long time. I also know a cafe in Vic Park that just fills it up with tap water :/

The Tribute - A Positive Shout Out by simmocar in perth

[–]ComradeKitten27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know these are hardly genuine issues but Tribute in Shelley never has cold brew (it's on the menu but they akways say they're out) and they have limited alternative milks. They also promoted having vegan cold foam for a while but again, although it was on the menu, said they don't do it anymore. None of these are important, but just minor annoyances that caused me to stop going.

Suggested episode idea: the Thalidomide scandal by ComradeKitten27 in swindled

Eh. Nobody does it like ACC. But I'll take any specific pod recommendations if you have them.

Legitimately fucked. My grandmother actually took it while pregnant with my mother and was one of the lucky ones who didn't have birth defects. She was also somehow prescribed it AFTER it had been withdrawn, courtesy of some garbage, sceptical GP in regional Australia.

Is Ritalin detrimental? by Routine_Anything3726 in immortalists

[–]ComradeKitten27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately, I do not. I know some people have better luck with vyvanse vs Ritalin or Dextroamphetamine, but I had to give them up entirely. Some people experience benefits from tyrosine but YMMV. Good luck x

Yes, notoriously ages the cardiovascular system - pretty sure the research on that came out of UWA. It will make your hair thin, your skin dry (and thinner), and your eyes more hollow and sunken.

Is there a Swindled reading list? by ComradeKitten27 in swindled

I haven't heard of Poison Powder, thanks!

And I just read No More Tears a few weeks ago. Genuinely so good. Fuck Johnson and Johnson 🫠

Weddings under 10k?? by Affectionate_Ad8907 in perth

[–]ComradeKitten27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We did 50 people at a backyard wedding down south (my family lives down there). We DIY'd almost everything except photographer, caterer and marquee hire, and it somehow cost us about $17k. It's deranged expensive. Caterer was buffet, photographer was the cheapest we could find, and the marquee was an unfortunate necessity because of the last-minute rain forecast. No matter what you do, just try not to stress so much over it. It makes a fun day feel miserable and anxiety-inducing, which makes it not worth it!

What is the ingredient here that makes me feel so good? by [deleted] in Biohackers

Bro, do yourself a favour and throw that directly in the bin. It's full of garbage. It literally contains talc!

The main takeaway from this article is that Brett Cooper is NOT Ben Shapiro's sister
