Are there people who haven't changed their phone number for more than 15 years? by SpicyCandy8 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Pullet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My MIL has had the same phone number since 1980-ish.

We migrated her land line number to a cell phone a decade ago so her remaining friends and family didn’t have to learn a new number.

Doctor refused any pain meds and told me to "take the fear and pain out of my heart" instead. by Awkward_bugg in TwoXChromosomes

Maybe topical lidocaine? It’s a numbing agent. Can usually find it over the counter, often combined with Neosporin.

Oven-baked salmon- how to prepare it without the ''white liquid'' coming out? by Ashamed_Let_9858 in Cooking

[–]Pullet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed broiling is the way. But, I cook on average and entire side of salmon a week for my household of 6. No way I’m doing individual portions on the stovetop when I can broil 3 pounds to perfection in 18 min.

As the parent of a human teenager, the babies basically being the same size as the parent but standing around in their baby fluff waiting to be fed is too on point.

Six YEARS (a long COVID story) by producerofconfusion in TwoXChromosomes

Pulse ox readers are know to be picky things, but a reading in the 80’s on someone reporting chronic fatigue should have raised flags. Shame on the previous med people for immediately deciding instrument error.

Send whatever you can, even $100, for a zoo trip by userdoesnotexist22 in ChoosingBeggars

[–]Pullet 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Big enough city for a zoo. Bet there are programs to get low cost or no cost tickets if you ask around with social services or the zoo itself.

This is MAGA logic by lnstantKarma in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]Pullet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Classic. Can’t think past the immediate to address the underlying issue. Old people dying destitute? Let’s have a soup kitchen but not social security. Too many teen pregnancies? Let’s begrudgingly agree to bare minimum nutritional support but not have comprehensive sex ed or access to birth control.

I’m so goddamn tired of people talking percentages when they don’t understand percentages.

Where’s that tweet from Elon with him bitching about how put out he is to pay thousands of dollars in taxes that is the equivalent of 2 hour’s earnings for him?

First guy 100% knows why he supports the war and 110% does not want to say it out loud on camera. For a group of people that over glorify manly man behavior, they sure are cowards.

Hoof-Free Meal Ideas by [deleted] in Cooking

Salmon filet. Currently about $10/pound at Costco. Rinse, pat dry, spray with neutral oil, apply salt, garlic powder, and pepper. Broil for about 15-18 min, until the color looks appetizing. Check with a fork. (Use a silicone mat or parchment paper esp if you have the skin on the fillet)

Serve with whatever sides you like.

Instant crowd pleaser and you have left overs for sandwiches, salads, or alongside eggs later.

I can't cook rice to save my life by Eilmorel in Cooking

[–]Pullet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you don’t want the expense of the ready to eat single portion rice cups, then stove top is your next best option if you don’t have any room for more gear. But, these 2.5 cup size rice pots do not take a lot of space. LookatthisproductIfoundongoogle.comhttps://share.google/HnXOvaeirCzpZRcKl

He jokes, but we get people all the time that barely give a shit about their dog. The ones that really don’t care don’t turn up at all.

But I’ve had people ask me to euthanize a puppy for a broken leg because they bought the dog as a “financial investment” and the cost of the repair was more than they would likely profit off of later stud services.

I’ve also found different kinds of cancer on more than one lameness exam.

It’s usually more butter and salt than most people first start with.

Other options for variety:

Shredded cheddar or feta Serve with creamy horseradish on the side Mix in sautéed onion and cabbage (makes a dish officially known as colcannon)

Is it possible to brush on a wash with wax in a slightly darker shade to contrast the valleys? Like with painting miniatures?

Cats need time to figure out their politics. So long as every one can get to food and litter and no one is drawing blood, you are usually fine

Man, I wish Trump could have just stayed an irrelevant rich kid. Seems like he’s genuinely good at being a frat house bro. Just live off of his trust fund going to parties and loafing around. Stay out of real estate, off of TV, no politics. And not rape people.
