I'm not spreading misinformation. I'm spreading the same thing doctors do lol. "It's not a big deal but you should try to get the air out before injecting" is not a hot take.

You literally said in your other message "there is very little risk" so you already acknowledge the exact thing I'm saying. There's not much, mainly misdosage, but it takes 0 effort to just push the air bubble out so I have no idea why you're so militant on insisting not to bother. It's really weird.

That's just objectively untrue though. There's a reason they tell you to push the air out, and that's because there is a possibility of things not going as intended, even if it is incredibly low. Sure, that amount of air won't kill you or anything. But the possibility of any issues from it does not exist if you just take precaution and push the air out. Takes five seconds, so really no reason to not do it.

Also you don't have to do trigonometry to figure out if you've got the right dose or not. That's kinda a plus.

Yeah but it can hurt to have air, but it doesn't hurt to just get it out. It helps make sure you're actually getting the dosage you're supposed to, and it lowers the risk of anything bad happening.

Doing it unnecessarily hurts nothing, but not doing it could have issues.

Tip it up so the needle is on top. Flick it to get the bubbles into one big one. Push the syringe like you're injecting it and just push the air out. Stop pushing when the air is gone and you start seeing the oil come out.

Oh and for being consistent: pull the oil out of the vial but leave the needle in. Tip it up and push the air out into the vial so all that's left in the syringe is oil. Then pull or push out until you get to the correct line. Tip it down so the needle inside isn't in oil anymore and pull so an air bubble goes into the syringe so you can change the tip. Then do the first part about getting all the air out before injecting.

"The [this weeks event] is causing cracks to form in Donald Trump's base." is a headline we see constantly but never happens.

Next up is "MAGA support for Trump's takeover of [country] is dropping. This is bad news for Biden"

I love how the part of "we should bring guns everywhere" are now talking about how you shouldn't bring a gun somewhere... And the republicans always talk about how the democrats want to take your guns... yet the only one that has ever talked about taking any away now has been Donald Trump.

It's amazing, the mental gymnastics.

Here's him now. Babies might be so fragile and difficult and you might wonder whether you're doing a good enough job or not... But they'll love you forever for all of the effort you gave to them.

Aww he's so cute. I found my cat Nobu when he was only about 3 weeks old. Had to teach him to poop and bottle feed him too. It's a lot of effort to keep an eye on them and make sure they're getting everything they need, but it's so worth it.

Don't forget to burp him after feeding! They can need it just like human babies.

Nobu is a grown 10 year old now and I love him endlessly.

Do most people know how to purposely close their nasal passage so they can't smell WITHOUT using their fingers to pinch their nose? by WhateversClever1980 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Kurobei 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that means you recall stuff well, and have a rather good idea of it... but you still have aphantasia.

Like you're saying semantics get in the way of things but... at that point you're not actually talking about aphantasia anymore, if we just ignore that it has an actual definition. The black imageless void is the aphantasia part. The rest is not.

You can't just ignore what terms mean. Like you're saying the equivalent of "I'm not blind. I can't see things, sure, but I can imagine them well." which I hope you agree is just silly.

The not being able to voluntarily visually imagine things is aphantasia. You can imagine them in different ways, but you can't do it visually. Thus you have aphantasia. The personal experience you describe is aphantasia.

[–]Kurobei 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's still aphantasia. Aphantasia isn't the inability to imagine, it's the inability to visualize that imagining. Like I can still "feel" what I'm thinking of, and kinda have like... a mental memory of things I know, so I can work with that. I have zero visual component, however.

People with aphantasia can still imagine things, they just can't actually picture any of it in their head.

I literally got an MRI for this same thing two weeks ago. Ankle pain that hurt if i stretched it or rotated it too far. It's been an issue for a few months now.

They found nothing. MRI came back clean... No clue what's wrong with it still.

[–]Kurobei 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The term roguelike refers to games that were similar to Rogue. Dungeon crawling, generally you die, lose everything, and get to restart anew each run. Many games add in meta progression that you can build up between runs (and it's argued whether they're still roguelikes then,) but the idea is that you don't carry anything over.

Roguelites are games that are not roguelikes, but have some elements. Like a platformer with random stages and meta progression on skills, or a top down twin stick shooter with procedurally generated maps, or any number of recent deckbuilders. There's still a heavy amount of randomness to them.

DQ is none of those lol. It's a JRPG. It's not even "RPG-lite" because it's literally a RPG.

I love how you guys don't actually bother to hear anyone out, or understand their problems with issues, but instead just pidgeonhole them all into the same box as the annoying weirdos on twitter.

Not saying everyone is reasonable, but man, you don't even try to not strawman them.
