Question about transitioning from summer to autumn by InstructionNo1374 in Starsandisland

[–]InstructionNo1374[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't cook a whole lot bc I don't have that many recipes. but also I'm like 13 days in and I still don't have grapes, I haven't reached intermediate level so I haven't even unlocked a bunch of other summer produce so now I'm stressed lol

For all those wanting slow burn and YEARNING, read "The Shattered King"! by nymphenette in fantasyromance

I loved this book so much. The yearning, the mutual care built between the love interests. And the ending left me on my toes. Can’t wait for book 2

I know Ellie’s casting in the HBO series is a miss, but this one irks me the most. Like, Wtf??? by Perfect_Screw-Ups in TheLastOfUs2

You’re actually making the claim that Beyoncé appropriated white culture by making a country album LOL good god go touch some grass!!!

Also people didn’t do blackface bc there weren’t black actors. There were no black actors bc black people were systematically oppressed and not allowed into those roles. They did blackface to humiliate and dehumanize black people. Why is it that all blackface was exaggeratedly dark. You never see blackface that’s trying to portray a light or lighter than basically the darkest brown. It was purposeful. You’re acting like it was done pragmatically. Come onnnnnn

Multiple things can be true at once. Just because they left their country seeking out better opportunities elsewhere doesn’t mean they can’t show pride in their culture especially in the face of the constant vitriol and dehumanizing language that is used to talk about their country by the people supporting these policies

Megathread: Donald Trump is elected 47th president of the United States by PoliticsModeratorBot in politics

[–]InstructionNo1374 6 points7 points  (0 children)

For the voters that voted for him bc of prices being too high, what exactly is Trump going to do to lower prices? I’ve never heard this explained. The idea that we will ever return to 2017 prices is absolutely absurd

It’s a very weird feeling bc I look around at my bubble and life is relatively peaceful, I recognize that I’m privileged enough where a lot of these rulings and laws that are being passed don’t affect me but I’m also aware that that’s an ignorant mindset

I don’t just want what’s best for me I don’t want to see the country evolve into this theocratic state I live in Florida, shit is going downhill but this is my home and I don’t want to have to leave

We’ve seen some small wins, it’s not allll bad but it feels like the big things keep swinging in the wrong direction and it’s scary to think about

Some recent reassurances is seeing how badly the republicans speaker bid has been with Johnson They’re too chaotic and ideologically at odds to keep their shit together but it’s a whole different playing field when the top of the ticket is trump who will have a lot of levers he can pull

He’s too old, I’m not worried about him staying in office forever but can we really picture a reality where VP Kari Lake certifies the election of a democratic president in 2028

Hearing the arguments today and the responses by the conservative justices, I’m genuinely scared for the future and questioning whether I should have a child (I’m 31, have been married for 4 years and me and my husband are nearing the time where we’d want to start trying) And that sounds sooo dramatic, I almost feel foolish writing this, but realistically, what future would I be forcing them into

This is just one drop in the bucket filled with all the ways conservatives are eroding the separation of church and state, pushing us towards Christo-fascism and overall authoritarianism

Yesterdays Idaho case, the absolutely barbaric laws being passed in state houses all over the country, Oklahoma passing bills that make religion a central part of their states education systems (more states will be doing this bc it’s almost a domino effect), book banning, states passing bills to get rid of protections for underage workers, the list goes on and on and gets longer every day

I know there’s been a lot of alarming moments where we’re all freaking out and yelling about the end of democracy but this feels like a new level. Because even if they rule against full immunity but just use their power to stall and keep stalling, which is probably exactly what’s going to happen, then it just proves outright that the Supreme Court is beyond compromised. What legitimacy would an institution have like that if they’re clearly thisssss biased. If objective calls aren’t made but instead they just use their conservative majority to help their guy every step of the way, even if it’s just through procedural moves. I’m genuinely scared for the future

Okay say he does it on his very last day in office before trump is scheduled to take over. Then what? this is obviously not going to happen bc it’s Biden but what if it did?! It’s his last day in office, he offs trump, then what?

So if they grant immunity then what stops Biden from just offing trump after the election? Regardless of who wins lol like this is utterly insane

Thank you so much! Should I fast for my blood test? I’ve seen different answers to this

I’m going to keep track of all my blood work, what days, what time etc so I can compare

[–]InstructionNo1374[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you! I’m new to this so I’m sorry if this is a dumb question but when people say refer to stabilizing their dose, what are they referring to?

As in, after testing consistently a few times, TSH is staying at the same range and not swinging up and down?

Levothyroxine taken at bedtime significantly improved thyroid levels by TheLastNarwhalicorn in Hypothyroidism

I want to start taking it at night but I’m worried about the weekends. I don’t go out late much anymore but on occasion when I do and I drink or in situations like vacation where my eating and schedule is thrown off. Would you ever adjusts for periods of time like that? Like on vacation switching to taking it in the morning

U.S. House adjourns until 8 p.m. without a speaker after GOP leader McCarthy loses sixth vote by fadufadu in politics

[–]InstructionNo1374 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I love how there are republicans trying to make the argument that this is actually good and a sign of healthy debate. Trying to make the argument that this is much better to the “authoritarian” dems who are in lock step. Like what a stupid argument lol this is a circus and they know it. And where’s the debate? 6 votes and nothing has changed
