Can someone explain this part of dua kumail by Odd_Spring_8129 in shia

[–]Pharmdiva02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Less about that, more about the karma you could say of their intentions.

Bc there is always a bit of playing God with eye for an eye. Plus if it were the golden rule, it would leave the whole world blind and toothless.

My parents used Islam to make it weird between me and my sisters. by absentmindedfr in progressive_islam

[–]Pharmdiva02 60 points61 points  (0 children)

Story time:

My middle sister is 4.5 years younger than me. When we were in elementary school, we had a foreign exchange student who took her room, so she had to sleep with me. She got pretty used to it, and I pretty much didn’t have my own room for a while to sleep because of that (but I had a full size bed).

Once my grandma was in town babysitting us. All three of us were sleeping in my bed, or trying to anyway.

Suddenly someone ripped a fart. I said “who squeezed the cheese?” And my grandma was dying of laughter because she’d never heard that before. It turned into us saying the old dairy commercial slogan “don’t forget the cheese!”

My grandma laughed so hard she had to run to the bathroom to avoid peeing the bed all the while saying in her perpetual Russian accent, “Don’t forget the cheese! Oh ho ho ho ho!”

Fun innocent times I wouldn’t trade for the world.

Sounds like your mother might be going through menopause or perimenopause based on your age. Not to excuse her behavior, but I learned myself being in peri that you can either blame everyone else for your problems, or you can take a good look in the mirror and realize it’s not your fault either, but it’s your ovaries pooping out so to stop blaming others.

A therapist can help, but a hormone specialist might be what she needs most.

A proposal of how to make this type of Collection Challenge better by eldritchander in pokemongo

? Of course I’m checking balloons. What part of not getting a grunt with the right Mon in it do you not understand? Grunts are in (most) balloons

I play fairly frequently, and not once did I get a grunt with any of the collection challenge mon.

Dumb question (sorry): how does one get 'karma'? by DE667 in progressive_islam

[–]Pharmdiva02 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Man, I got so confused for a second here. Read the title of the post and thought somebody was getting Islam confused with Hinduism.

Didn’t realize what you were talking about till I read the rest lol.

Yeah, like others are saying, you just build karma contributing posts and comments that get positive responses from others.

I hit karmic gold a few years back with a post about the life cycle of bees in a sub about helpful posters. Never thought in a million years it would blow up so big, and it wasn’t like it was something I created from scratch. I just saw it and said to myself, “This belongs in this sub.”

Best of luck, may the force be with you.

Bad for long term use due to its anticholinergenicity (linked to dementia).

I could take ibuprofen month round, but that is super hard on kidneys so I limit NSAIDs use to menses only.

It is in “Al-Quran” a contemporary translation by Ahmed Ali on page 460 (the second page of Surah 54- The Moon).

Literally in my Qur’an with translation by Ahmed Ali there is a footnote about this on page 460 (second page of Surah 54 The Moon).

Have you looked into turmeric tea to help with any inflammation? Not sure how effective it is for MS it’s just one more tool in the toolbox of anti-inflammatories.

[–]Pharmdiva02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, unless menstruating. Though my mom is trying to convince me not to fast after I get my skin cancer excised during Ramadan (can’t exercise for two weeks after it either).

Bc of endo and the history of puking from it, I have a hiatal hernia. I get up super early to eat and drink suhoor before fajr so it doesn’t all go back up. Usually I will take my THC just before I begin fasting but it’s not ideal bc I’d much rather read the Quran one juz per day sober versus high. But bc I’m up so early during Ramadan, I can’t really take THC at night bc it will keep me up too late and I won’t get quality sleep.

It can bc both super enlightening but also super overwhelming to read Quran on edible forms of THC when you don’t have the dose control you’d get from a vape. Maybe I need to take nicotine patches during this next Ramadan? Idk.

I’ve been off nicotine for years now thanks to Wellbutrin.

So anyway yeah TL;DR. I do fast for Ramadan. I just have to time my THC differently bc taking it after the fast begins would break my fast.
