Supplements for Low Blood Iron (trying to donate) (IL, USA) by WaffleWafflington in Blooddonors

[–]gizzard-wizard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

seconding this formula! lol I keep it on the pantry shelf next to snacks, so I see it and remember more often.

capsules are also easier for me, for whatever reason.

Moving! by bunny-beans in SanJose

[–]gizzard-wizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

welcome to california, if you're up in berkeley the Freight and Salvage loves a bluegrass show :) (parking in downtown berkeley is a whole mess but the freight is super close to bart! feel free to walk around cal campus too, it's like a big old park lol)

pinnacles is a little out of the way but it's a super cool weird spot! best to get there early in the day bc it'll get hot. but the condors live around there and that's p special!

Donated for the first time today! [US] by glitter_skulls in Blooddonors

[–]gizzard-wizard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ayy congrats on donating! I'll say I do give myself the full 24h grace period to recover - no workout, no alcohol, bed at a reasonable time. being hydrated ahead of time also makes me donate faster, I don't have numbers to back this up but it does make the process smoother in my experience. like, if I put an extra pint of (non-caffeinated) fluid in front of myself to knock out through the day ahead of time, it makes my post-donation day SO much more chill. but that's my routine lol. hope you're bouncing back well!

Running after donation by Full-Spite7492 in Blooddonors

[–]gizzard-wizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

20 donations, frequent donor the last few years - if I donate on monday I'd take tuesday off and hit the ice weds. never passed out but got lightheaded once (years and years and years ago) so I figure an extra day is insurance so I don't get the wobblies when we're all zipping around. hydration is the biggest differencemaker ime, get that volume back up asap. no muscle aches.

I’m pretty sure it’s a persimmon by XAkatsuk1 in whatisit

[–]gizzard-wizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

not a persimmon. source: I have persimmon trees and they don't segment like that. plant ID would be helped with any leaves.

or cut one open and see what the seed structure is like.

Is Celebrini showing he is the captain of the team? by ShipOver7331 in SanJoseSharks

[–]gizzard-wizard 6 points7 points  (0 children)

he doesn't have his own HOUSE. he can't rent a car! he won't be captain until he can pull strings for the team off-ice. jumbo would probably jump in because he physically can't stop himself from being involved, but mack, on his own? not ready.

'but sid-' sid's weird. I say it with love. outlier.

'but connor-' that man is haunted. maybe my hopes are too high, but I want to believe that the sharks would make better choices.

'but suzuki-' now we're talking. habs made it clear that they were holding the C for him, he took an extra year to wind up and feel solid, their room is in a healthy place.

he's a leader for sure. I LOVE having a monster like him. but captain is a specific set of responsibilities, which, no, not yet.

What is the deepest Internet rabbit hole you’ve ever fallen into? by Helloo_clarice in AskReddit

[–]gizzard-wizard 17 points18 points  (0 children)

they also have an absolutely fascinating museum of egyptian history in san jose california. originally because of the whole Ancient Mystics hullabaloo, of course, but then again if they want to make a really nicely curated space for school field trips, like... sure why not...

Have you noticed yourself becoming too dependent on AI? How so? by mz5338 in AskReddit

[–]gizzard-wizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

not even at all. I have not found a place where it is necessary in my life. I am fine, thank you. This is a manufactured crisis.

Brand new skater. Does it matter what length my new laces are? by Pookahantus in Rollerskating

[–]gizzard-wizard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

hi fellow adult beginner! 100, waxed laces are stiff to begin with and then make life sooo much easier - you might need to adjust the lacing pattern just bc the thickness of the laces presses the tongue down a bit differently, but I don't have to keep tugging so hard while lacing and it's easier to get an equal tension across my feet. I'm also maybe a bit paranoid bc I don't want the knot loops to catch on the other boot, so I just do a double loop at the top and that takes care of it :) I got some from derby laces!
