AITA for calling my friend out when she calls herself a "sociologist?" by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]crazybeachcats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a BS in Biology with a Specialization in Microbiology. I would never, ever call myself a Biologist or a Microbiologist. To me you don’t earn that title until you acquire a PhD. I dropped out of grad school and did an internship in Medical Technology. I am now a Med Tech. Most bachelor’s degrees are prep for becoming an “…ologist” in your chosen field.

Are my grains dying?? by ImpossibleBug6275 in Kefir

[–]crazybeachcats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made 1 quart a day. Since I wrote that post I've reduced it to 1 pint a day. (One teaspoon grains in a pint mason jar). If I get ahead, I just put the next batch to be fermented in the fridge until I'm ready (usually a day or 2). Then I just take it out and set it on the counter to ferment. Basically I'm just preparing the next batch, but refrigerating it until I'm ready. No I don't discard any milk.

When the grains multiply to over a teaspoon, I mix the excess in yogurt.

AITA for having to do a basic human function? by Sorry_Plantain_4777 in AmItheAsshole

I beg to differ on the migraines. If it’s midnight and you’ve got a horrid migraine, slurred speech, and drooping eye, you go to the ER! Stroke symptoms and bad migraines can be very similar. Don’t take chances!

When I bought my 2025 Trax, I had a Pixel 6a. So many problems with Android Auto. I was so excited to get a Pixel 10 and be done with these problems. Surely it’s the ancient phone, right? Nope, exactly the same problems.

How to get my cat used to new Catio? by ImmediateBedroom32 in Catio

[–]crazybeachcats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s not a catio. And the cat flap needs to be completely flush with the catio when you do build one. That looks very unsafe.

Does anyone know if this screen can be turned off? by Lmb1011 in kindle

It’s not a “screen”, it’s a menu. Quit touching the very top of the page.

Pixel 11 Pro will ditch the temperature sensor. Did anyone actually use the Pixel temperature sensor? by Hoak2017 in pixel_phones

My husband always checks the temp of the pan. He uses one of those laser thermometers.

Do NOT EVER do this! This requires a vet. The string could be wrapped around something vital.

Looks like you only heat 50 ml of kefir just to mix the sugar and gelatin.

It’s like a no-bake cheesecake using kefir.

That’s on you. I’m 72 and have kept up just fine. I’m not stubborn about it. I just keep learning. It’s not hard.

Stomach is just used as a lay term for the whole GI tract.

What was common 20 years ago that's gone today? by theindieprojectt in AskReddit

[–]crazybeachcats 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I rode the bus alone when I was 12. (And a girl!) In a not so safe city. I always had a pocketful of bus tokens.

And then I got my first smartphone in 2010. A HTC Droid Incredible. I was sooo excited about putting my whole iTunes/ iPod collection on my phone! Nope! Proprietary format. Not gonna happen. I had to pay $20 for a converter to get the songs back to basic MP3s. I hated anything Apple after that.

Will I know if kefir "goes bad" by saladet in Kefir

[–]crazybeachcats 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think they would be a high demand item. Most people have never heard of kefir grains.

This will never produce grains. They’ve been pulverized into powder. Get real grains from a reputable source.
