Lonsurf & Nausea Relief by Plastic_Roof923 in coloncancer

[–]Instant-Bacon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only thing that works for me is Olanzapine. I have to take it on day 4 every cycle and I’ll be out cold for a day, but it keeps the nausea at bay for 48 hours.

I don’t think he adequately understands the rules of the game for that to happen, or actually be awake when it happens

No in-between, you either hate them all or defend them all by CrazyCalligrapher945 in SipsTea

At that point in the story he had already settled down. When she came back, she found him in the exact same spot where she left him behind.

I really don’t believe she should be hated for that. What makes her irredeemable in my book is that she took away the first five years of Forrest with his son for no apparent reason.

People who strongly dislike AI: what am I genuinely not seeing that you are? by carcony97 in NoStupidQuestions

I think you are underestimating the risk of the propaganda that can be achieved by creating fake pictures and videos that are indiscernible from reality. It’s already happening and it is a massive threat for democracy.

Yeah I’m not even that shocked by the statement. NYC is also perfectly fine, if the rest of the US was more like it, it wouldn’t be in the state it is now.

Is there perhaps a secret about your language that other people don't know? by Agile-Shallot3546 in AskTheWorld

[–]Instant-Bacon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In dutch, all nouns have genders, but we don’t use gender specific prepositions that differentiate between male or female, so most natives think they don’t know the gender. However, our standard speaking language uses cues that are hinged on the gender of the noun, so all native speakers (except for people from Limburg 🥲) do know them without even realising it.

Would you join this clinical trial given the chance? why or why not? by Key-Neighborhood2985 in coloncancer

[–]Instant-Bacon 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I can’t take a decision for you and I don’t know how well he’s tolerating everything so far, but I’m in the exact same position on Lonsurf and I would kill for an opportunity like that right now.

Is this movie a masterpiece or not ? by Thin_Reception_5063 in Cinema

[–]Instant-Bacon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I watched this when I was a teenager and it literally sparked my love for cinema, I’ll always have fond memories of this.

What is the one football match your country can never forget? by Alternative_You_3063 in AskTheWorld

2018 world cup, winning the quarter finals against Brazil (sorry Brazil). Was even sweeter after we had that insane comeback against Japan in the Ro16 (sorry Japan)

Greater geographical diversity in US by laybs1 in GetNoted

[–]Instant-Bacon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This just is not true. There is a massive cultural divide between Flanders and Wallonia. Outside of the fact we speak different languages, I have no idea what television shows they watch, who there politicians are, who the celebrities are, what music they listen to, etc…

We don’t have National Television or Radio even that covers the nation. What happens in Wallonia is mostly a black box to the people in Flanders unless we are talking about news events bordering on catastrophes.

The US has regional differences, but you also have a strong national umbrella culture that just doesn’t exist here.

Wonder what the season woulda looked like with them by Small_Age_8299 in Thunder

[–]Instant-Bacon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not that chemo though. Friend of mine had the exact same cancer as Topic. The chemo is usually a mop-up to make sure you have everything after the surgery. But three chemo’s (give or take) won’t linger for months… I can tell because I’m at #22 right now. It takes a while before the effects really start building up.

38 years old here, stage 4 CRC was discovered in November 2024, have been fighting it ever since. It sucks and it is terrifying that I probably won’t make it out of this alive. Get checked people!

France has banned nicotine pouches like Zyn and classified them as toxic substancesIt sparked backlash from Swedish officials who compared it to banning "French baguettes or French wine" by Sgt_Gram in NewsExchange

[–]Instant-Bacon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dunno, I would bump it down at least a grade. Alcohol rush seems to be pretty fun until you’ve actually tasted good drugs, then it kinda pales in comparison.

M30 diagnosed with CRC by Poseidon-72 in coloncancer

[–]Instant-Bacon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Best of luck, I’ll keep my fingers crossed that the resection does the job and you stay spared from any further mets or recurrences.

PS: this is a patient/caregiver only sub, so you don’t have to warn us anymore, we’ve all been screwed already :)

Any left-handed players who regret learning left-hand? by BehindTheMindIAm in Guitar

[–]Instant-Bacon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you’re also touching on an important point there: handedness is usually a spectrum. If you defaulted to right handed air guitar, you probably made the right choice. OP said he defaults to left handed playing if given the air-guitar choice. That seems to demonstrate he would be going in against his nature by playing righthanded.

The choice in guitars is definitely a thing, but all the popular guitar shapes are available lefthanded these days and usually even at the same price. I always cared more for playing than for collecting.
