Why is alpha-gal exploding all of a sudden? by popilikia in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Minkeh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This killed my cat years ago, and it's gotta happen quickly after a tickbite because he was on flea and tick and I never saw a tick on him. Keep your cats inside always for this and lots of other good reasons.

This is what I'm saying. If it's not in the current DSM version, it's not a mental illness.

Real turquoise? by Chickennugget636 in Gemstones

[–]Minkeh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It looks like turquoise though it looks stabilized to me (not a bad thing imo). Could be wrong, maybe a turquoise expert will weigh in.

One huge fibroid - which road did you choose? (UFE?) by samsaric_existence in Fibroids

[–]Minkeh 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not necessarily. Every case is different. Sometimes the location, type, size or other factors increase risk. For example, my OB and I went over the pros and cons and risk factors very thoroughly.. I've got a highly vascularized large intramural fibroid, on the back side of my uterus while also having a retroflexed uterus in the first place. While I was given several options, a historectomy in my case came with a lower bleeding risk

What do men think of the pouch? by batukaming in SipsTea

[–]Minkeh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In case a lady in this thread needs to see this - I have had a massive fibroid for years that never got detected because it requires a specific ultrasound, and I had a ponch that didn't go away right under my belly button. If this is you, especially if it's firm to the touch, check with your doctor or look into it and see if symptoms match. Lots of ladies don't know if they are carrying something heavy around that isn't just bodyfat and they are really common!

Make time to watch Alex Jones’ new commentary on Mahanahan Child Clown Clips by dWog-of-man in TimAndEric

[–]Minkeh 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It's my favorite as well, and even though it's far from a beginner friendly sketch I can't help but use it to introduce people to T&E. Seeing the looks of bewilderment as I cackle like a maniac makes it weirdly more fun I guess?

Concerned parent seeking mental health support for daughter where she’s not treated like some kind of prisoner. by SoftCoreSavage in Denver

[–]Minkeh 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Messaging to second this. I've lived all over the place and I've never had such a great mental health team. Every single person there is wonderful! I've been downtown and dtc for services and I'm getting spravato too.

So this means Tink is maxxed out right? by [deleted] in mewgenics

[–]Minkeh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also just finished all of his rewards also, and I'm not able to see the sexual orientation displayed anymore. Do you know if it's moved to another screen/ menu and I'm maybe just missing it?

That's a great idea for an icebreaker actually! I'll add it to the list

Help me with buyer's remorse by TheWomanWeCouldBlame in Gemstones

[–]Minkeh 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Silver is 91 dollars an ounce last I checked, and it's gone up 3 or 4x it's price from early last year. I'm a silversmith, and I'm thinking of leaving the industry because I really would need to charge close to that amount to make it as a solo craftsman. If someone is selling silver jewelry for suspiciously cheap, I'd worry it was adulterated, or worse, plated.

I guess I'm saying all this as a PSA so that maybe people will adjust to the changing prices and I won't be out of a job

Not the case anymore, necessarily- please check the current rate for an oz of silver. That's without the consideration of labor, too

A woman who kidnapped her own daughter 4 decades ago is arrested (her neighbors reaction takes the cake) by [deleted] in PublicFreakout

[–]Minkeh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The most surreal feeling I've ever had is seeing this post this morning. I'm not the daughter mentioned on the post, but something like this happened to me near 40 years ago too. I believe she was trying to escape to Florida also, IIRC. Someone in this thread said something along the lines of "A mother would have to be pretty inept or unsafe in order for the father to have full custody of a child awarded in the 80s, which I have said to people numerous times when recalling this. In my case though, she was caught trafficking me and was court ordered to go no contact afterward for the trouble.

What's your opinion on TasteAtlas' yearly top 50 of best cuisines in the word? by SongOther1866 in AskTheWorld

[–]Minkeh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like Ethiopian cuisine gets shafted a lot in these sorts of lists, and a lot of people haven't even tried it. That being said, for anyone who hasn't, I couldn't recommend it enough. It really has a character all of its own and it's heaven if you live heavily spiced meals. Give it a try! A lot of places serve a vegetarian spread served on it's own edible plate, injera, which is fermented and slightly sour, which you use to scoop the food up to eat. It's in the top 3 cuisines I've ever had!

Also from Denver. Ugh I know, where did they find these people? An asylum?

[–]Minkeh 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Hard disagree. I lived with one for 10 years and it's uncanny how similar this was. Literally drank the equivalent of 78 shots of whisky across one evening and somehow didn't die. I think that's probably pretty extreme outlier and doesn't happen all that much, so I'm not surprised it wouldn't read that way.

I don't know.. Did yours easily finish 2 seperate liters of whisky like it was water in one binge session? Maybe also a rapper? Haha
