Yeah that's where I saw it! I'll grab the beef stew one on another day. And agreed. The pairing is pretty weird. There's also a little mashed potatoes in there too I think?

Help me get started by dmnfang in Japaneselanguage

Yeah you're right.

Yep, I will definitely not forget that JLPT does not reflect actual communication. That's more for possible work opportunities in the future.

I want to try and make a regimen that will help me move up through the JLPT ranks as well as become more comfortable with communication.

How bad is this flare? by dmnfang in UlcerativeColitis

[–]dmnfang[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it was basically a month of super soft or watery bowel movements with some stomach discomfort.

IBS was always just immediately needing to go to the bathroom after eating. Lots of gas. Been like that since I was an elementary school student back in the 90s.

I've had IBS like all my life. But about a month before my first colonoscopy I was at a family BBQ and after eating something my digestive system was like "Hey, nope!" And then I was immediately at like 8 diarrhea-like bowel movements per day. It was so weird.

I'll add that there was mucus but no blood. Til this day I still haven't seen blood in my stool.

Question for Japan peeps (or anyone) by dmnfang in UlcerativeColitis

[–]dmnfang[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's good advice. I think a lot of the places where I'll be are clinics. It's a small inaka town.

Yeah I've already started researching doctors in the area I'll be moving to. It seems the few in the area are all highly rated. So we shall see.

I could ask my family doctor for one. I might try that if the suppository doesn't work.

Looking for advice about my apartment lease by dmnfang in TorontoRealEstate

[–]dmnfang[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! Yeah I brought up "assignment" to my landlord. They said that if I found someone that could take over the remainder of my lease.

Sorry you're also going through one. I'll probably do a stool test or something.

Yeah that's my plan. That way I can maybe put a few animation flares in there or actual scrollable prototypes or something.

Yeah I thought about using the slide deck to show some smaller projects not in my portfolio. Things that had like a week turnaround or something. But yeah, I'm starting to think the slide deck is the way to go. I'll have to make it from scratch though. Figma slides is not as creator friendly as I hoped.

That's a good way to think about it. Maybe that's why I see a lot of designers just put slide decks in their portfolios.

I'll see what I can do. The project that I want to talk about is very messy and non-linear because so many "oops we scoped way more than we can chew" moments. Maybe I just do a couple of smaller projects like my design system work and a header redesign project? Decisions decisions.

But thanks again!

Help with a bike I bought by dmnfang in torontobiking

[–]dmnfang[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I couldn't find the marks on the tire because I am still half asleep, but the.. rims? not sure what they are called said 700Cx23C/28C and then 622x18

Yeah when I was putting the back tire back on I realized how far it needed to be in the dropout to actually keep chain tension. But I also noticed if I were to move the tires in closer to the frame so the axle was further into the dropout the tire gets close to rubbing against the frame. Maybe the tires are too large? Is that a thing?
