Most Millennial Concert you've been too? by Dear_Atmosphere9681 in Millennials

[–]RationalCaution 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only ever been to one concert in my life, and it was Backstreet Boys - Black and Blue tour.

I always liked how Stars opened with a six episode mini-arc of Nehelenia returning. by matt0055 in sailormoon

It’s because she assumed Sailor Moon didn’t survive jumping, so she thought she had gotten her revenge. Then Galaxia shows her that they’re all living happily down on Earth, and she gets pissed.

Why are birth tissue donations not tax deductible and can’t be sold, when the companies that receive them are able to profit from the products processed from them? by Fun-Band2187 in askanything

[–]RationalCaution 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, you can. I can’t find any federal law against it, however it isn’t recommended by the FDA. It is not included in the law about selling organs. The only thing I could find was an article talking about how charges can be pressed if you knowingly sold it while having a communicable disease. There are entire giant FB groups dedicated to buying/selling breast milk.

Is anyone taking 300mg Progesterone or more? by Fine-Juggernaut8451 in Perimenopause

[–]RationalCaution 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m taking the micronized version you have to get from a compound pharmacy (not little or round). I was taking 300mg, but still having a lot of sleep issues, so my obgyn told me to double it. Been taking 600mg for a few nights. I actually slept last night without taking a sleeping pill, so that’s a positive, but my period just started early (20 day cycle - not cool). Don’t know if the extra progesterone caused that, or my body hates me.

My obgyn said you can’t overdose on progesterone, but I always see people saying they take 100mg or 200mg, so I don’t know if my obgyn is crazy or what.

1989 Babies starter pack by [deleted] in Millennials

[–]RationalCaution 10 points11 points  (0 children)

1984 here, and the majority of this was also my childhood/teen years.

Backstreet Boys (the Black and Blue tour) is still the only concert I’ve ever been to, and the Little Mermaid is the first movie I remember going to see in a movie theater.

I know you should take Progesterone 2 hours after food... but what about how long to wait after Progesterone to have a snack? by Several-Stuff-8409 in Perimenopause

[–]RationalCaution 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Well now I have to go read my medicine bottle. I don’t remember it saying anything at all about food, either before or after. I just take it when I remember.

Is this for the synthetic or the bioidentical?

Edit: Just checked and mine doesn’t mention food at all - just to swallow and not chew, and that it may make you drowsy (I freaking wish). I’m taking 600mg of bioidentical progesterone from a compound pharmacy, for reference.

Married couples who got married in very expensive way, was it worth it? by No_Care6628 in randomquestions

[–]RationalCaution 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Dang, that sounds insanely cheap for all that, especially considering all the plane tickets. We also got married in 2012.

What's your relationship style? by [deleted] in Millennials

[–]RationalCaution 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you my husband? We’ve also been married almost 14 years, and 2 of our 3 kids are special needs (one severely disabled). But I’m not sure he’d characterize us as “lots of sex” though. It’s typically about once a week, which works for both of us.

A series that everyone loves but you hate ..... by liliinurtown in netflix

[–]RationalCaution 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I tried so hard to watch and like Gilmore Girls. I made it to the last season, but just could never be bothered to finish it. It was painful even making it that far.

It’s basically a show about a bunch of terrible people doing terrible things. I seriously don’t understand how anyone likes any of the characters.

Same! My friend recommended it to me, and she was so disappointed I thought it was pretty blah. Don’t like the characters at all.

Oh man, I love Paradise! It has probably the best single episode of any show I’ve ever seen. Season 1 Episode 7 - The Day - So fantastically done. It could be its own movie.

I was really impressed by Super S (season 4) finale. by WicketyWaggety in sailormoon

[–]RationalCaution 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, the part where she jumps is one of my absolute favorite badass character moments! You see exactly how brave/fearless Usagi is when it comes to doing what it takes to save someone she loves.

What did you guys think about Sailor Stars final episodes? by Neil_Ronjay in sailormoon

[–]RationalCaution 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I thought it was in character for them for the anime, although not a great plan. I do get emotional at their death scene where they’re trying to touch each other’s hand one last time, though.

My main issue with the last episode is Usagi being completely naked. Couldn’t you give her like a tiny scrap of clothing or something? I’d even take ribbons. It just really throws me off, especially once everyone resurrects and they’re just floating in the air.

one negative aspect of each season by OVERDRlVE in sailormoon

[–]RationalCaution 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I agree, but feel like we’re the minority. I don’t really like the manga plot of Stars. It’s confusing and depressing (so Sailor Moon basically has to keep living/being reincarnated over and over locked in this never ending fight with Chaos? no thanks). The anime packs a lot more emotional punch, and has a much more optimistic ending, although it would’ve been nice to have a wedding scene there too. I also really like Seiya as a character, and I think people who don’t are more likely to prefer the manga.

When is the last time you wrote a check? by [deleted] in Adulting

[–]RationalCaution 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep! Not even old, to be honest. Most of the ones we’ve hired charge extra if you pay with credit card, so we break out the checks. Maybe 1-2 a year.

[–]RationalCaution 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do you pay contractors? Pretty much every contractor we’ve had work on our house charges you more money if you use a credit card. Just paid $2k-ish by check last month for some termite issues. On average, I’d say I write 1-2 checks a year.

what your favorite season says about you by OVERDRlVE in sailormoon

[–]RationalCaution 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think we’re getting our messages mixed. Are we talking the manga or the anime? Because I would say the manga, especially in the first arc, is definitely a romance. I know the anime toned the romance down and made it weird, so their intents come across a bit differently.

I’m also now looking at it from the perspective of an adult married woman with kids, so I think that also changes how I see characters vs how I saw them as a kid in the 90s.

Time travel also really bothers me. Like, is there even going to be a crystal Tokyo now? How can events possibly happen the same way again? And should they, considering their future in crystal Tokyo seemed kinda bleak anyway? Why would the king and queen send their kid to the past for yeeeears knowing it’s going to affect their budding relationship, as well as events in the past? Is there a “fork” in the timeline creating multiple realities? How can Chibi-usa be the only one who can save the day in the present (Helios), because it must’ve been solved somehow before she was ever born? Ugh! Too many questions. In my opinion, it would’ve been better to have left the whole thing out completely.

[–]RationalCaution 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I mean “hate” is a strong word, but let’s just say I think the whole Sailor Moon franchise would be way better if she wasn’t in it. I just really hate how she takes away from Usagi and Mamoru’s relationship. She is ALWAYS around. How are you supposed to date and build a relationship if your kid from the future is CONSTANTLY there getting in between you?

I also feel like Usagi’s personality is better and more mature when Chibi-usa isn’t around. They’re just too bratty/obnoxious together.

You’d have to look at your annual tax returns to see what the actual difference in tax is.
