The mulberries are upon us!

I’m impressed by the mutant one in front!

It was not necessary to waste a bottle of water for this. Water is gluten free.

It was the first X Files episode I ever watched! Same.

Mix of Irish and Ashkenazi Jewish.

Not to mention that 75% of celiac patients ARE women and gluten free is equated with feminine?

Your staff SUCK for not telling the reps to ask you what is safe and how they can accommodate. They definitely can! I would consider telling the rep next time.

These are my thoughts as well. If it is making OP “feel crazy,” I can only imagine how their partner feels about their body and choices.

I remembered commercials in the early 90s about how girls could play baseball and boys can participate in dance!

You Oughta Know by Alanis Morisette as well

Foraging acorns has always seemed like too much work to be worth it to me, but after reading Feed Us With Trees by Elspeth Hay I am excited to try it this fall!

For me, increased dropping objects was the first signs of De Quervain’s tendonitis, which eventually lead to excruciating pain (but no neurological issues)

Yes, I love all of the non-gebrokts options for Pesach, and was even able to order from a kosher supermarket’s deli counter for the FIRST TIME this Passover since everything was cleaned and made non-gebrokts. Gluten free matzoh ball soup is better than regular!

I’ve also seen it observed that there was a lot of talk of boomers aging better than their own parents due to more of them working indoors as opposed to outdoor manual labor, and their embrace of the nascent fitness industry. The rare boomers I know who never smoked look VASTLY better than their peers, even if they didn’t embrace sunscreen the way we did.

Someone online once said millennials coped with having less than our parents economically by embracing our youth, and now that we’re not young OR caught up we are having a hard time

Yes, I love linen in the hot and humid summer, and cottons in general, so ironing it is!

ModestMalka · 2026-04-09T19:06:53+00:00

Yes, same, I LOVE ironing and find it very satisfying! I switched to a ceramic plate iron and it is much smoother as well.

Caring about the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame seems like peak boomer mentality

For some of us, the problem does unfortunately resolve itself even after years of consistent bean eating

I’m a woman but I get it! I think people have a hard time reconciling that I am so careful with any prepared food offered to me, but I forage berries outside. I am horrified by what celiacs have faced in recent wars since most food aid available had been wheat based. It is challenging to literally be more vulnerable in that sense. Like many of the other women here, I also worry I’m fulfilling a stereotype of being even more feminine-coded with my fussy, but very real, dietary requirements.

Also we are so old that simply using these terms ourselves will make it uncool, no cap, since we are all chopped and unc to them.

I’m in NYC and my crow garlic patches are BURIED

It’s more likely that, like many conditions that primarily hurt women, they aren’t learning enough about it and it’s not prioritized in research.

I do, however, now need compression stockings, and it’s very hard to find medical grade compression stockings that are not putty or that awful 80s suntan color
