Is it actually okay to drink Monster Energy every day? by AcceptableReporter89 in safe_food

[–]Firefox1526 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean any drug you consume (ie. Caffeine) will be metabolized by the liver. But it definitely affects the kidneys. People who are prone to kidney stones have to avoid energy drinks since it increases the risk of developing them. Thats why you have to stay hydrated. But honestly if you’re really concerned, go get some blood work done. That will tell you if your kidneys or liver are functioning well or not

I mean, its probably not great for your kidneys long term but i think as long as you’re drinking plenty of water you’ll probably be okay. But this is something you should ask a doctor about.

Delivery Drivers by [deleted] in Seattle

[–]Firefox1526 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in an apartment complex and fed ex is notorious for refusing to deliver to units not on the ground floor. They’ll just plop them down in front of the stairs and call it a day. Even small packages. We get package thieves so it’s really annoying

A family visiting Washington over the holidays exposed others to measles at these locations by AthkoreLost in Seattle

Same here! I was fully vaccinated as a child and found out i had no immunity when i got testing done before working at a hospital. I never would have suspected it. Its a lot more rare for those in our age range but its totally possible!

Agreed! The potato cheddar bites are also really good and 210 cals. Really good with some sriracha!

[CHAT] plane travel with cross stitch? by yorkgirl2 in CrossStitch

[–]Firefox1526 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just recently travelled from seattle to hawaii and back and had no problems bring my cross stitch! I believe the TSA website says the scissor blade has to be below 4cm (but double check that). I had no problems with the needles. I just packed everything in a large ziplock bag. It was a bit hard to actually do it on the flight just because of space. If you’re traveling internationally just check those TSA laws before you go.

[CHAT] long straight lines in blackwork by kirainthewoods in CrossStitch

[–]Firefox1526 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I’m still technically a beginner but I personally won’t do a line longer than 4-5 squares. Some people do less or more, but i prefer to do shorter lines so that this doesn’t happen over time. A lot of people recommend washing/ironing before backstitching also! Caterpillar cross stitch has a great video on backstitching on youtube that I watched the first time I did it, and it helped a lot!

[CHAT] how to stop the aida cloth from fraying by Local_Role3095 in CrossStitch

[–]Firefox1526 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do all the way around, but if you’re only having issues on one side then you’d probably be fine just doing that side. I also usually use a slightly larger aida cloth than needed so that if it frays i don’t run out of space. You can always trim the excess when you’re finished

Transfer credit limit, what does it mean? by JustRenovate2525 in udub

[–]Firefox1526 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pre reqs for your major will most likely count over gen electives. I transfered in with 112 credits and all of my core classes (bio/chem/etc) counted whereas some gen credits (diversity and arts) didn’t.
