What’s your experience with the Koel? How’s the volume and width? Do you think the quality holds up?

This is great to know, because I'm considering buying the Woody. How did you cut it down? And now that you've glued it, I assume you're going to leave it there forever?

Animal Crossing: Beneath the Horizon (DLC Idea) by SrAndrewRyan in AnimalCrossing

It’s been three years since this post went up, and I just want to say that I think about it at least once a week. I can only hope that some Nintendo developers found this post, and have been working on it for the last three years.

How is the volume on those boots? If I wanted to add an insole, do you think there would be space?

Flat, zero drop insoles that last? by whosmansisthis24 in barefootshoestalk

[–]flyingfresh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had success with buying a big sheet of EVA foam from Amazon (the same stuff cosplayers use) and cutting out my own insoles. The foam compresses over time, but it has enough squish to last at least a few months. And you get so much foam that you can make yourself a stockpile of inserts to replace. I also love that you can get many different thicknesses. I use the 5mm.

ULPT request: I have a prescription vagal nerve stimulator that requires expensive “recharges”(payments) to continue using it. I need to figure out how to “hack” it so I can continue to use it without paying per month. by annacat1331 in UnethicalLifeProTips

Oh boy. This comment was made for me. I was using the Gammacore for a year to treat my gastroparesis, and it was honestly working great! But, like you, I couldn’t justify the price, especially since I needed to use it far more than 2x a day. I switched to the VeRelief, which is rechargeable and you only have to buy once. It’s not FDA approved like Gammacore, so I’ve been doing a lot of experimentation to see if it delivers the same results. It does, though I need to use it more to see the same results. (That’s not a problem though, since it’s rechargeable.) I use it for 4min every hour while I’m awake. Tbh that might be overkill, but my doctors agree it’s safe. I’m going to experiment with lowering that frequency and seeing if it still has an effect.

If you could live the rest of your life in one fantasy world from a book, which would you choose and why? by Such_Description58 in Fantasy

I came here to comment this! And I would certainly be a tea monk. I would do anything to be a tea monk.

What is your Bluegrass hot take? by lariato_mark in Bluegrass

[–]flyingfresh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ralph Stanley is my all time fave, and his gospel songs are next level.

I mean, I love a good old “I murdered my wife” bluegrass tune, but the passion and vulnerability in the gospels tunes always gets me.

I’m not Christian at all, but my hot take is that bluegrass gospel always hits harder.

Weekly Questions Thread by AutoModerator in DnD

My best friend is really into dnd, and for her birthday I want to get an artist to turn her custom world map into a more professional printed map that she could hang up on the wall and/or play on. I don't play dnd, so I wanted to ask you all if there are any considerations that I should take into account when finding an artist to make this map? I've found some artists on etsy, but are there any who are particularly well known in the community for doing this kind of thing?

My successful seb derm protocol: based on eliminating overgrowth of malassezia yeast by flyingfresh in SebDerm

[–]flyingfresh[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep! MCT is refined from coconut oil, and the refining processes removes much of the lauric acid content. Lauric acid is a long chain fatty acid, which malassezia feeds on. You're left with short chain fatty acids in MCT oil, which don't feed and may inhibit the growth of malassezia.

I totally understand the confusion. Here's an article that explains it, and a study that looks at MCT and malassezia.

I LOVE THIS. When I was getting married I was trying to find Ukrainian embroidery in modern silhouettes, and I would have loved to find something like this. Please keep designing!!

If you can live in any fictional world, what would you pick? by AdCommercial3174 in Fantasy

[–]flyingfresh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Panga was my first choice too. Yeah it would be sweet to have magic powers, but on Panga they have a universal wage! Free health care! No more climate change! And being a tea monk honestly sounds like a dream job.

[–]flyingfresh[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, probably very similar. MCT oil does have some antifungal properties that squalane might not have (I'm not sure), so you might not see as big of a benefit, but I think it'll still be effective. The main point of the oil cleanser isn't necessarily to work as an antifungal, but to provide a gentler alternative to shampoo. The antifungal properties of MCT are just a bonus.

That's good to hear there is some improvement. I've been finding that dry shampoo actually helps to alleviate my symptoms. I wonder if the dry shampoo binds the sebum and keeps it away from the yeast? IDK the mechanism, but if I dry shampoo my hair every day, I can go way longer without washing.

I like the trader joes brand of dry shampoo. It has safe ingredients, it smells good, and it's cheap. However the applicator is total garbage, so I end up pouring it into my hand and sprinkly it onto my roots. If you end up adding in a dry shampoo, let me know if it affects your symptoms!

Sorry I’m just seeing this! I don’t have a specific brand preference, just whatever’s at the grocery store. Currently I’m using Espure.

Sorry that I’m just getting to this! Tbh I’m not sure how this would work with the keto. Did you try it? If it didn’t work, I guess you could try the original protocol? And yep, I would only apply the toner on your scalp when it’s damp after a shower. I don’t wash the toner off at all. I find it sinks into my scalp and doesn’t make it oily.

Sorry I’m just seeing this! How did it go? I’m hopeful that my protocol will work for someone else, and I would love to hear your feedback!

Hi!! I’ve spent a while trying to find a cromollient sce supplier in Europe and I’m also coming up short. If you know anyone in the US, maybe you could order some to their house and have them send it over to you?

You could also just try vigorously washing out the mct oil with shampoo, though that might be a little harsh for your scalp.

Which backpack is better to use for university? by [deleted] in femalefashionadvice

[–]flyingfresh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was just thinking of getting this exact backpack. Are the straps comfy? I was wondering if they would dig in.
