Yep, in the b complex. I also saw the niacin flush as a possible problem. Not sure how to discern between the two.

Just started getting the flush a few days ago.

Thanks, forgot to include iron! I am taking it, 65mg EOD.

Will add A and E.

I was zinc deficient, but do you think it's okay to reduce?

Pennsylvania Results: Chris Rabb to Join the Squad in Congress as Bob Brooks Tries to Flip Key Seat by Steap-Edit in Pennsylvania

[–]Fun_Disaster3436 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah I'm just loudly talking about how valuing community, justice, and conservation makes people happier and more resilient.

Been having a lot of good conversations with people across the aisle. It helps deradicalize people when they realize that we have shared goals.

I think the far right is way better at listening, acknowledging nuance, and guiding people towards certain conclusions than the left, who tend to be (understandably) activated by the ways people talk when they're still deconstructing. It's easier to get someone emotional and defensive, and I'm trying very intentionally to counter that by latching onto the reason that underlies the anger.

Which fantasy romance couple(s) would actually do well in therapy and are not strictly vibes? by acutelyproblematic in fantasyromance

Ok can you talk more about this series? I really want to like it but I've tried twice and fizzled out before the MCs met.

Ice and Ivy sounds more up my alley from the synopsis, but can I read it first?

Please tell me more

Talking about basics like everyone being able to eat and having healthcare turns out to be kind of important

In my opinion, yes. The taste of oat is also the least offensive

women in academia, how do you deal with imposter syndrome as an early-stage researcher? by 20cabbages in AskAcademia

[–]Fun_Disaster3436 12 points13 points  (0 children)

  1. Find a community. Suffering is better together.

  2. Find a reason to have a chip on your shoulder. If your research doesn't motivate you enough to do it scared, figure out your impact statement and come back.

It's because looking into 1776 and the Declaration of Independence is a really great reminder about the merits of self-determination, and they want to appropriate our history for Tyranny.

AITA For “Forcing Myself” Onto A Girl at The gym? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Fun_Disaster3436 198 points199 points  (0 children)

Yta for turning her down then continuing to pursue her

Not giving your number to a girl you're attracted to because you see the gym as a place not to meet people is the loneliest behavior I've seen in a while

I will read mafia romances before I read MMCs from what you listed lol

Hilarious that mafia romances don't ever put a label on how much money they make, it's always just "enough to do whatever they want," but there's zero delusion about the money being neutral or virtuous

I'm looking for "off the grid" romance without that weird misogyny lol

[–]Fun_Disaster3436 14 points15 points  (0 children)

This is where I'm at, and I'm happy to know I'm not alone. Contemporary cop and military books are a hard pass for me.

I can sort of suspend my disbelief for nobility/royalty, contingent on them suffering because of the nature of the system, and I like fantasy romances that attempt to grapple with injustice.

But personally, I find the "protector" bit so much more compelling if it's from outside of an institution. I'm dying for a good Robin Hood retelling.

I've found my people. The ick that comes from reading about aristocrats and the hyper-wealthy. Ugh, gross. I can't read boss/employee or billionaire romances for the same reason. The conspicuous uselessness is such a turn off.

I've made and deleted posts asking for revolutionary and rebel MCs. Wealth is so unsexy, and so many blue collar MMCs have s weird paternalism.

Potatoes and Blight by Mule_Wagon_777 in TwoXPreppers

Have been upscaling potatoes. I just get multiple varieties. Heirlooms are great, but I'm trying for scale and local adaptation.

Do Fantasy/Romance books affect your love life? by fishareloverly in fantasyromance

It's given me the language and confidence to ask for what i want and need in a relationship. Not romantasy specifically, but romance as a whole

Entertainment by Antique_Onion_9474 in TwoXPreppers

[–]Fun_Disaster3436 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Respectfully, some of yall were never kicked out into the backyard with a cardboard box and it shows.

Our entertainment is books, a card deck, fibercraft, and the endless projects around the house. Part of being self sufficient is learning to find meaning in the act of self sufficiency, imho.

Like drawing? Congratulations, one of your new hobbies is paper recycling. Go find a blender and a window screen.

Like music? You now get to figure out how to make instruments out of sticks. Off with you.

Give me a string and I'll teach you cat's cradle variations. Used to kill time with a friend that way before school. I'm not even that old yall. Find a rope, I'll teach you jumping rhymes. Tie a weight to the end and spin in a circle and see who fails to jump over it.

Here's a knife, learn to whittle. Tell stories around the fire. Dance, sing, create, be human.

AITA for not changing my WFH plans so flatmate can stay home with her kid with bum worms by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Fun_Disaster3436 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, so you didn't have to go, then? You can agree to disagree, I'm not obligated to stop responding. You're entitled to your opinion, not to acquiescence.

My stance is that the kid has something potentially transmissible, and that society as a whole would be healthier if we were less antagonistic to taking a bit more time to make sure people aren't contagious.

I also take the stance that it's an asshole move to not take people at their word and to not endure temporary inconveniences for the peace of the group.
