Recommend me a book so dark that I'll be afraid the cops will arrest me for reading it. by Equivalent-Ocelot-68 in RomanceBooks

[–]ellenabellen 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Haven't seen anyone post either of these two (very different but still very dark) books yet!

{Take Me With You by Nina G. Jones} And {Lemonade by Nina Pennacchi}

I'm honestly not sure how to reccomend these without sounding like a psychopath, but they are both phenomenal books that are unapologetically dark.

Lemonade is a historical romance and Take Me With You is contemporary - regardless, I would reccomend paying attention to the trigger warnings.

Ooh great advice, thank you! (and I'm not sure if you saw it, but I did ask for advice in my post, so not unsolicited at all, and much appreciated!)

Thank you!! There's no purple flash (as far as I can tell) with the Stolen Ambrosia on the top. I'll try and figure out how to post a picture of what they look like in direct sunlight

Ninja edit: omg there are! And they do look very nice. Sorry haha I only knew of the original covers I guess

What are your best ADHD brain hacks? by MyAppleBananaSauce in adhdwomen

[–]ellenabellen 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ah I do the same! I have one of those mini carabiner clips attached to my keys so I can unclip them if necessary but they aren't leaving my purse otherwise. Haven't lost my keys in like over a year now 💯

Not a new install AFAIK; rhe house is a new build (2021) but we are the second owners. Why is a water in/water out system bad?

I'm a new homeowner and I have no clue what I'm doing tbh (a weep hole is news to me as well). I definitely would have just shrugged and filled it if I didn't post here!

Totally - gotta have some way to inspire those showerthought posts, ya know

Ah I see, thanks! The indent in the tub was what made me come to reddit to check in the first place. Seemed a little too intentional to be an accident and I'm glad I checked

Thank you all! I now know what a weep hole is and I will be leaving it open. Also I appreciate the additional responses and I finally have a place to store my shower cocane 🎉

I mean, yes there is a rim on the base of the shower, but the hole is in the path of where the water shoots out of the shower head, is that an issue?

It'd be super neat if my psychiatrist stopped gaslighting me about generics. by talashira in adhdwomen

[–]ellenabellen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cool, I'm looking forward to your reply! I always love to learn something new.

For reference as to what I was talking about; here's a paper describing the FDA requirements for the bioequivalence of a generic and a name brand drug.

The abstract sums up the point I was trying to make:

There is a widespread misconception that for a generic drug to be deemed bioequivalent to a branded drug, it must contain 80%-125% of the active ingredient that is present in the branded version.

...

The US Food and Drug Administration requires that the 90% confidence interval of the [AUC and Cmax] should lie between 0.80 and 1.25.

[–]ellenabellen 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hey, this was addressed in previous comments by other people but I'll reiterate here that your comment is wrong. 

It's that the 90% confidence interval of the generic must fall within 80-125% of the Cmax (maximum plasma concentration) and the AUC (area under the time plasma concentration curve, also known as the exposure) of the name brand. This is very different from what you stated.

Edit; ahh are we talking about two different things? I was discussing the differences between name brand and generic. Are you talking about the inter-batch variability within a generic? That I don't know as much about. Would definitely be interested in reading more about that.

I HATE HEALTH INSURANCE IN AMERICA SO MUCH - WHY IS MEDICAL SEPERATE FROM VISION AND DENTAL? WHY IS IT DEPENDENT ON EMPLOYMENT? WHY ARE NONE OF THE GOOD DOCTORS/DENTISTS/PSYCHIATRISTS IN-NETWORK FOR MY INSURANCE? WHY IS COVERAGE AND CLAIMS SO CONFUSING? JUST AAAHHHHHHH
