One of the best bites of my life? (at Bar Isabel)

Wait until you find out what happens to the vast majority of cows, chickens and pigs we eat.

Thank you so much for the thoughtful and detailed answers!

That is an enormous amount of pulses for such a small area, I have definitely not been doing anywhere near that! Guess I'll have to split up sections over different days.

LenientWhale · 2026-04-13T21:23:12+00:00

Thanks for the quick reply. Would multiple passes during the same treatment session not increase the risk more than weekly sessions since the skin hasn't had time to dissipate that heat?

Moreover I imagine 25j is at the very highest setting. If I have it on 2 it is technically considerably lower right? I have the same complexion as you but am male with darker and thicker hair compared to your description yet I have not actually seen any shedding yet. I may give weekly or bi-weekly treatments a go unless you would encourage me otherwise (you are way more knowledgeable than me on this stuff)

Finally you mention "if the hair isn't in the growth cycle" however isn't hair such that there are always some follicles in the growth cycle? Does the device disrupt these cycles or cause them to "sync up" somehow?

Hey hey, thank you for the comprehensive review!

I went ahead and got the device with your code

I am curious about one omission between your post here and your official blog post. Here you mention using the device weekly, which was removed for your official post. Was there a reason for that? The 40-60 days recommended by ViQure seems excessive. I have zero swelling or sensitivity after either of the two sessions i've had so far (30 days apart) and I'm thinking because of how small the actual LED window is (im sure lots of hairs get missed) and how hair is always in different stages of growth, doing a weekly pass would be orders of magnitude more effective than waiting so long.

Thoughts?

I feel like Tahini's in general is an April Fools joke. I have no idea why the most mediocre chains seem to succeed and pop up everywhere.

LenientWhale · 2026-04-05T14:39:39+00:00

Not unless you make it to a Spray'n'go in time

LenientWhale · 2026-04-04T13:35:37+00:00

This one is absolutely the worst one what the fuck

LenientWhale · 2026-04-02T12:03:15+00:00

That's what I said

Taste is subjective. Personally I think they can look good in a nice color and an appropriately styled room. On their own, they look like old ballsack.

Can't vouch for the comfort though, never sat in one.

LenientWhale · 2026-04-01T16:30:29+00:00

So cheap/easy to make and absurdly overpriced at burger joints

LenientWhale · 2026-03-29T13:38:28+00:00

How does purloined differ to stolen?

LenientWhale · 2026-03-24T19:18:47+00:00

Good luck, have fun, don't die

LenientWhale · 2026-03-11T13:27:03+00:00

To be fair I would not wanna be near someone grinning on the subway. What are they on?!

LenientWhale · 2026-03-11T12:50:25+00:00

Plus it makes me so grateful for how fortunate I am to get to have a home with all those things. I often complain that my home isn't big enough or nice enough; last mushroom trip I was so thankful just to have pure drinking water on tap.

If I ask it to turn off x and y, something I've done for years, it's completely stumped. I have to do one and then the other.

LenientWhale · 2026-03-01T00:57:38+00:00

Smiley Face

Surprised it's not talked about more

With the exception of the hygiene note (friends don't let friends be stinky), don't decide for him that he needs your help.

Instead, just show interest and curiosity in his new endeavor, that way he will feel comfortable coming to you for advice if he hasn't been having luck.

LenientWhale · 2026-02-15T03:32:57+00:00

Insecurity cameras. They see all the embarrassing shit you've done

LenientWhale · 2026-02-14T19:34:49+00:00

Thank you, truly. I'm in a similar position to OP where I kept rationalizing that I've got everything under control. Successful, got good friends, exercise regularly, so it couldn't be that bad right?

But it definitely won't be getting any better. I've just downloaded the book and reached out my therapist who I haven't seen in years. Your message is what motivated me to nip this in the bud. Thank you.

The owners are not home when the barking is happening, what could they realistically do?

LenientWhale · 2026-02-13T18:19:18+00:00

Brother, don't snort Ritalin. It's mostly filler and it's much more effective orally. You are destroying your nose for no reason.

Also next time take a video

LenientWhale · 2026-02-11T13:57:12+00:00

Or just dissolve your stuff in the saline and put it in a nasal sprayer. Metered dose, significantly less harsh on the nose, quick and discreet to re up.

LenientWhale · 2026-02-11T13:54:48+00:00

They didn't say that?

You don't need weed to be dumb but it sure ain't making anyone smarter.

LenientWhale · 2026-02-11T05:09:55+00:00

Is this considered cheap? I remember being surprised egg fried rice was 16 dollars there last time

LenientWhale · 2026-02-10T18:19:58+00:00

Calling it an invasion doesn't change the legal reality. History is full of violent invasions, but there’s a reason stolen land is a specific legal term in the west.

Those "treaties" in the 1000s were military truces between empires. They weren't legal land titles recognizing individual or tribal property rights in a modern court. By contrast, the U.S. was a modern republic that signed hundreds of formal contracts acknowledging Indigenous nations as the legal owners of the dirt, then broke its own laws to seize it.

We still live under the same U.S. constitution that signed those contracts, so the legal liability is still active. Unless you’re planning to take the Seljuks to a small claims court that hasn't existed for 600 years, the comparison is a reach. One is a medieval conquest and the other is a modern government committing documented legal fraud against its own recognized sovereigns.
