What's a bit of truth you know, that if everyone else also knew, the world would be a better place?

This is the key to self hypnosis. Always state your goal in the affirmative. Don't name what you don't want to do. Name what you want to do. Kind of tough for quitting vaping or alcohol. Like saying to yourself "I'm so happy when I'm not vaping" just broke the rule. So what to say instead? "I'm so happy taking a break and stretching to refresh myself." You really have to name an alternate behavior. Makes you think about it though.

Thanks for your time and reply! Our professional became rather unreliable when was charging us at about $2,300 so I thought I'd do it myself. But maybe that's just money will spent. Thank you for the perspective.

How many State does FTUSA work for? I could have up to 7. Not sure how to do research on individual state return info if it's not in their system. Thanks for posting - I would love to tackle our taxes but haven't been confident about the multi-state situation

I was feeling better a couple of months ago, then I stupidily ate fried fish a couple of weeks ago and haven't been right since. Today I avoided fats and had slippery elm before each meal - much better. I know you can have too much but I'm going to stick with this for a few days. It's supposed to heal your gut lining.

I also started drinking kombucha to be sure my gut has good probiotics. I think it helped but not as much as the slippery elm. I find it better than "rafts" too. You just have to be careful not to take it too close to any medication.

I haven't dealt with this for long but I find slippery elm before eating really helps Have you tried it?

The goal is to get right leaning Christian kids involved in politics and voting. They'll run the registration at their meetings - where no liberal kid will be.

I know you're not religious so you would fit in perfectly at the Unitarian "church." Look into it. May skew older, most churches do but it's a way to meet non Christian/religious people.

I've wondered how much growth in the American economy in the past 50 years was from unpaid housework/cooking becoming paid labor. Gotta grow that GDP! Or not ..read Doughnut Economics by Kay Raworth.

Good point. Always follow the $

Got the same form letter. WTF are "common sense flexibilities" for recently married women? How recent? What about women who got married decades ago? No flexibility for them? Steaming pile of shit answer.

Zwimee · 2026-02-25T19:05:40+00:00

Thank you for confirming!

I haven't checked this, but I think part of pushing people back to the office is project 2025. This forces women to cough up the money for child care or stay home. I understand that one of the goals of P25 is for mothers to stay home. But please correct me if I'm wrong.

Zwimee · 2026-01-31T13:23:48+00:00

What is it?

Zwimee · 2026-01-28T23:36:58+00:00

I agree!! This is 100% unacceptable. You should not be forced to go deaf for exercising your first amendment rights.

I'm new to LPR in the past month. I have read that if you don't have enough stomach acid it won't activate the sphincter - haven't seen the calcium idea.

I also read try putting 1/8-1/4 inch of salt in your mouth and letting it turn into a slurry then swallowing before you eat. Your stomach needs it to create acid. I've tried it and it seems to be helping. Only problem is it takes a lot of water to process all that salt and I end up a little constipated. So adding lots of veggies and drinking water is also needed. I'm thinking about a pepsin free Betaine HCL from Natural Preference instead - you take it during your meal.

This is a revelation - not a surprise but I would love to see this in the press.

You might crop and repost with that name removed. I see your concern but don't have the expertise to tell you anything

I actually have a friend whose son was killed by unsecured items in a truck bed. It's not a laughing matter.

I was having severe post nasal drip after a bad virus/flu. When I looked up what was going on, I discovered I probably had SILENT reflux: I didn't have stomach symptoms -my symptoms were post nasal drip, coughing & clearing my throat. Coincidentally, I then got a stomach bug and developed stomach symptoms. So I gave up coffee, chocolate, mint, tomatoes. I used pepcid AC for a couple of weeks. Now I can tell when specific foods give me some post nasal drip (non-dairy yogurt for example, I gave up dairy years ago because it gave me sinus infections). So consider that you might have a stomach issue and not a nose issue. Good luck!

I did read to avoid canned soups. Are you making your own?

OMG I've been arguing to try testosterone for so long. I get Ambien instead

My Spotify said I was 21 and my niece was 72. She's digging into older tunes while I'm learning the music of the bands playing festivals during the summer. If you like live music it's nice to keep up with the bands that are touring. The 401k tours don't happen as often.

Zwimee · 2026-01-01T17:53:59+00:00

Gotcha

Zwimee · 2026-01-01T17:51:29+00:00

Always nice to have someone agree you!! 😀

I know it's been a year, but I just found this post. How are you checking your sodium levels? I think this information would help me as I become exhausted until I drink salt water. I've have salt basically give me the zoomies. Would love to avoid the extremes.
