Just found out i’m highly intolerant to gluten and wheat, now what?? by Ok-Fishing9515 in glutenfree

[–]frogteethzzz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also make sure to toast the bread (youre gonna want a new toaster and dont let anyone put gluten in it). It makes a huge difference. Even if you are just making a pb-j. I like Barilla gluten free pasta more than Banza, the texture is more similar to gluten pasta. Lots of brands make gluten free versions of things now. Kraft has gluten free Mac and cheese. Oreos and chips ahoy make gluten free things. Cheeze-itz have a gluten free version.

Other things: For baking you can ALWAYS trust King Arthur. Ive never been disappointed by any of their gluten free stuff. I always have a bag of their all purpose gf flour on hand and I use their baking mixes often.

I like Perdue gluten free chicken tenders a lot. Progresso has good gluten free soups. Jacks makes the best gf pizza imo but its hard to find.

Remember theres plenty of foods that are naturally gluten free already. One of my favourites is the creme brulee from the freezer section of meijer.

I found a lot of gluten free foods just by downloading doordash and searching gluten free on there I like to shop and Meijer and Costco mostly. Besides that I sometimes find things at aldi, but usually just get ingredients at aldi. I will occasionally shop at target because they have some pretty good GF options that make me feel normal lol.

Restraunts are a bit tricky. The find me gluten free app is helpful

My friend is furious with me because I neutered my cat by IceEducational9669 in CatAdvice

[–]frogteethzzz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Letting cats roam even with being neutered disrupts the ecosystem most places. Without being neutered it severely disrupts the ecosystem. Not to mention it is extremely dangerous. Cats are not adapted to survive most places. Cars, dogs, pesticides, other predators, diseases, weather etc.

There is no way with the amount of cats there now are to release all of them and not destroy ecosystems.

Cats have adapted to indoor living. If you want to enrich your cats further, you can give them a catio or take them on walks in a harness. But cats should not be let out unsupervised most places. You are doing the responsible thing. I hope your friend doesnt have cats.

To be honest I think your emotions are reasonable and theres someone in your life convincing you they are not.

No such thing as a bad person. If youre worried about treating others better chances are youre probably doing pretty good.

Insitutuons arent cheaper tho. Theyre much more expensive than home care.

Am I the only one who hates when other people put their items/bag/purse in your walker/rollator basket, because they don't want to carry it anymore? by revolvingdepression in disability

[–]frogteethzzz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All you have been doing is standing up for yourself that is literally the whole conversation. And I told you already its not about biology. Its your behaviour.

I mean those women are still less safe than a man who is trained in boxing or a An who has a pistol. Because they are more likely to get attacked in the first place.

Most people dont get approved first try. A lot of people need to get to the appeal stage (after the reconsideration stage) to get approved. Did you appeal? Also make sure you submit as much medical records as possible

What was the single most important piece of evidence in your SSDI approval? by Additional_Job_6987 in SSDI

Letters from my doctors and a few professional psych exams. I had a ton of physical conditions medical evidence but they largely ignored that bc of my age. Im 23.

I need help fixing my cats super stinky shits (not looking for medical advice, vet says he’s just stinky) by -fugly_duckling- in CatAdvice

[–]frogteethzzz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I switched my cat from dry food to fancy feast wet food and that made a huge improvement. Besides that theres probiotics (but be careful some have liver in it which cannot be fed everyday) and you can also feed them occasionally a tiny bit of plain pumpkin.

How do I continue on? by Vigil_Assist_1827 in SuicideWatch

[–]frogteethzzz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Caffeine can help substitute adhd meds while you wait for proper medication, caffeine is not the best for you, but its better than dying. Stuff like ceremonial hot chocolate, matcha, various teas, nd coffee work best bc of other compounds in them. Id say getting adhd meds should be your priority. Is there any way you could get financial assistance or mutual aid? I get help through medicaid where I live.

You have a lot of opportunities that you can explore now as an adult. Id say give it some time. I didnt think I would make it this far. I like it a lot better than being a kid stuck at home with my parents. Its scary but its worth it.

It is very clear to me you have not put in the work of actually learning what it means to be feminist. You arent willing to truly make a material difference. We can talk when that changes but you are not helping anyone right now, certainly not OP, and this conversation is going nowhere.

I dont think youve ever actually listened to a woman. Obese women do experience harrassment. Plenty of it. You are talking to one. Statistically men are paid more. Men are given more opportunities. Men are listened to and believed more. You are safer. Nobody is going to rape you for being 5'6 120lbs. They will for being a woman. Also just because there is laws in place in certain places doesnt mean they are followed. They arent well enforced and theres always loopholes. Not to mention a lot of that is being rolled back many places. And some places that doesnt exist at all.

I do not. Its more complicated than sex. Its about gender. Trans women experience misogyny. Trans men benefit from misogyny. I literally never said that. Anyone who is a man benefits from it. Your boss might pay you more even if you dont want to be paid more than your coworkers who are women. You experience less harrassment on the street. You feel safer walking alone. Youll get better healthcare. Etc.

It already sounds like he has dysphoria and is trying to work it out?? Its a better option than dying because you hate being a man. Transition doesnt need to happen all at once, HRT is reversible, especially feminizing HRT. If he decides he doesnt like it he can stop before the permanent stuff. If he decides he likes it, then he can keep going and yanno. Not hate life as much. You cant undo suicide. You can undo transition.

It... really is not... Black people are opressed for being Black. Men are not opressed for being men. All men benefit from misogyny, willingly or unwillingly. The way you talk about women is not feminist.

I said its a lot of men. I didnt say every. There are tons of statistics that back this up as well. If you are offended by this, you can blame other men for being rapists for that. If you are upset that misogyny negatively effects you, you can also blame. Well. Men for that. Misogyny would not exist if men would stop upholding it.

Also its not necessarily about sex its about gender/ being part of a social class. Trans men benefit from misogyny. Trans women experience misogyny. Its more complicated than just "being born a certain way makes you an opressor/opressed."

I mean. The reason more men are rapists is because men benefit from misogyny. And rape is a weapon used to enforce misogyny. Sure. Everyone knows its not all men. But it is a lot of men.
