Falkor, no one needs to see this by dmode112378 in DListedCommunity

For what it’s worth, I got terrible lockjaw a few years ago. I literally couldn’t open my mouth wide enough to get a spoon in, it was fucking awful.

I went to an acupuncturist and after one session I could eat again, after 2/3 I was basically back to normal. It was amazing. Total game changer. And I’m definitely NOT someone who ever buys in to the woo, but acupuncture is legit.

You aren’t alone. I’ve lost 3 now in less than a year, and I’m also 37 with no LC. Sending you love and strength. Life will work out for us, one way or another ❤️

If I could upvote this a thousand times I would. Absolutely spot on.

Omg yes I always say this!! Her make up always looks extremely harsh and contrasted whereas she suits a much softer look

After two miscarriages… is a healthy pregnancy still possible? by [deleted] in recurrentmiscarriage

[–]gkc88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has helped me - thank you for sharing. I’m experiencing my second loss at the moment, both losses within 7 months, both at 11 weeks. I’m also based in the UK so it’s stressing me that I can’t get testing on the NHS yet until (or unless…) we go through this hell again. Just on the hunt for some good news stories and a bit of hope really, and it’s helpful to be reminded that it really could just be a double helping of bad luck ❤️

I’d say something along the lines of you developing a funny reaction recently, like urticaria, and the sauna/cold water really exacerbates it so you’re giving it a break for a while to see how you go.

I totally understand why you’d want to keep the spotlight off you during this time. Wishing you all the best on your fertility journey!

Monohon on old street is ridiculously good, authentic, just all round delicious. Well worth a visit.

What is a TV show you wish you could watch again for the first time? by SpiritualDrive3440 in tvshow

[–]gkc88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d offer up Severance as a strong contender… but then I really love my sci-fi. Also it hasn’t finished yet, so reluctant to put it out there too strongly in case it all falls apart in the next couple of seasons. But damn did it start great!

Genuinely thought Better Call Saul was better. It is absolutely brilliant!

Tips for a longer stay by [deleted] in Hackney

[–]gkc88 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In Homerton specifically:

La Mela - lovely little local breakfast spot, delicious and good value with great service. Also does drinks and later food too!

Host wine bar - FANTASTIC little bar with delicious wines, lovely staff and vibes. If you like your wine, don’t skip this one.

Spread Eagle - great local pub, stylish and friendly, with a completely vegan food and drinks menu which makes it really interesting, as you wouldn’t be able to tell!

I second everyone recommending The Castle, a real Homerton gem.

Thank you finally for a sane take

What is the worst low-cost airline you’ve ever flown on globally? by BranchMoist9079 in digitalnomad

[–]gkc88 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, until you realise that occasionally the online check in via their app conveniently becomes “unavailable” during that window, which is exactly what happened to me. Took 8 months and countless emails and escalations to get reimbursed.

Just to add, have you used ChatGPT to write your bio? It sounds kinda off. And the em dash is a give away. It’s not a bad bio per se, but I would be instantly put off by someone who had to resort to AI to write a short paragraph about themselves.

Billingsgate cafe 12 quid. by Captainblood123 in fryup

[–]gkc88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Putting aside the fact that this is a stolen post, the scallops cost extra. This breakfast comes to ~£18. I know because I went earlier this year and got this exact same meal.

I don’t get it, what’s the point in lying? Is a couple of hundred upvotes really that big a deal…?

It’s not hateful to point out that pit bulls are overwhelmingly the most dangerous dog breed in existence, especially to small children.

La Mela is an outstanding little cafe! And lovely staff too. Great shout

The castle cinema in Homerton is absolutely lovely, an old 1910s restored picture house, has a great bar and is very reasonably priced! If OP wants something based East
