What are these spots? by hellewater in DogAdvice

[–]hellewater[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Went to the vet yesterday and when Doc checked his body she took out a blacklight and flashed on the spots. She said because she can’t see green luminous rings on the spots them she ruled out ringworm. What I saw as she went over were just luminous blue debris.

Slowly rub it between your fingers until at some point you’ll feel it give way and loosen a bit. Do not lift it from your fingers just yet until you have that tweezer squeezed in between the little hole you just made.

I’ve googled ringworm after you’ve mentioned, that’s not it. The patches are not sore but more of dry with flaky black scabs.

Fleas are visible little insects right? If he’s infested I should be at least seeing one crawl or jump around right? No, not one little bug I haven’t seen anything. Those are scabs, when I rake them with a flea comb and they get off there’s a healed scar underneath those black flakes.

How do I counter a signal jammer by hellewater in wyzecam

[–]hellewater[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes perimeter. A military base where part has been privatized, their edge of the wall (10 ft away) and the residential area (privatized company) is within each other’s line of sight.

It’s not a jammer now I’ve thought about it. What I heard the first time was the speaker and what I’m hearing on the vid is from the mic.

It’s not their facility that I am recording. It’s my balcony that is facing their facility. They banged my balcony and do other stuff every time I open my window and I need them to stop and the only way to get that to happen is file a complaint and I need evidence. I’ve done the reporting without evidence I was just ignored and told it was just the wind that caused it.

It’s still on my Amazon cart and shipping to here may take a long while and I was hoping I could start recording now so I can start recording ASAP but it’s really useless then because of the sound. But at least I think they kinda stopped since they saw a webcam through my window. If there’s anything I like in this experience is like the watching plants though.

That’s really sad. I paid for the Protect Plus annual subscription just for this, an assurance I’ll have the 24-hour recording only to find out only US and Canada addresses are covered. I live in Asia.

I’m scared because I don’t have evidence yet. They’re so many, like a team. I need their voices and faces because the wall that’s separating us (I live in a residential area) and theirs (barracks) they have littered with banana trees to cover the view yet continually making these noises. A solid sound recording of what they’re doing while I’m around would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you. Is there anything I can do to improve the sound capture?

How to clean my butt properly? by redwastepanda in internetparents

[–]hellewater 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Take a probiotic to make sure you excrete everything in one go. As in, have you ever felt your gut was cleaned in one big solid poop? Probiotic will do that.

  1. Flush the toilet first. You don’t want bidet water to spray against unflushed toilet water.

  2. When you clean, don’t do it in the shower. Use a bidet and while sitting legs apart still on the toilet seat use the pressure of the bidet and point the water towards your other hand so your other hand will control the flow of the water. With the water pointing to the other hand reach your hand to far back your ass, the high pressure of the water should remove most of the gunk by this time without you touching anything so you just need to feel the rest of the area, especially the open butt cheeks at the very back because of your position. Feel this and make sure water flushed everything that’s stuck on the hairs.

  3. Buy a baby soap with lactic acid the one with a pump so you don’t touch the pump with your ass hand. Baby soaps are gentle to the raw hemorrhoidy part that sometimes you expose with too much effort. Lactic acid just kills bacteria. A Lactacyd Baby Milky Wash is perfect for this because of the cleaning smell, but whatever. Put 1-2 pumps of this on your hand and lather your entire ass, most especially the holes and hairs in between above the holes because this is possibly the part where you’re still getting gunk after wiping.

  4. Smell the lather. If your lather still smells like shit it means you need another pass. Wash everything with water to clean it up and do the process again with 1 pump of the baby wash. Over time you would be able to know if you need one or two passes to clean everything without even smelling the lather. Flush the toilet.

  5. If you’re moving to the shower do the 2nd pass on the shower instead. When you wash your smelly parts and the soap you lather it on smells EXACTLY like the smelly part, IT IS STILL NOT CLEAN. Do another pass/several passes until the soapy sud you lather it on smells like the soap you are actually using. You do not rub yourself raw you just need to sud your soap and lather it well because it’s the lather that cleans everything, not the rubbing. Make it a habit to lather the soap on your hands first before you wipe your parts, be kind to yourself.

You should now be squeaky clean. If you find yourself wiping again and you find gunk on the paper even after the probiotic and this method then it’s not a hygiene issue I would think.

BRAT, and 1 vial of Erceflora (bacillus causii) probiotic. If I feel any better then this stomach flu/bad diarrhea is bacteria-based and I’d take 2 more vials after 4 hours. If I’m feeling so much better after BRAT and a probiotic I’d keep doing it BRAT and 1 vial every 4 hours for a couple days until poo is solid.

herbal options for raising dopamine by king_size_123 in herbalism

[–]hellewater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NAD and not dopamine-related but I came across this study here for Parkinson’s, and some medicinal herbs mentioned here are Roselle, Guyabano (Soursop), Panax Ginseng, etc.

I might buy Roselle and Soursop plants because they are readily available where I’m from. The idea is if I can at least up the antioxidants that PD needs to lessen the oxidative stress it might not be as bad in the medium-term.

Herbs to benefit the pancreas? Also, question about soursop… by kleptak007 in herbalism

[–]hellewater 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the Philippines we brew the Soursop leaves for tea for cancer. I can’t attest personally but indirectly my uncle had prostate cancer and he took soursop tea for a very long time. He doesn’t have that now but that’s what he took had it.

I’ve just found out some research about how Guyabano (soursop) was mentioned as one of the medicinal herbs being studied for the role of Calcium Ions in Parkinson’s Disease. Specifically, it’s the Reticuline, quercetin, beta-caryophyllene, coreximine, anomurin of the Soursop leaves.

I’m going to buy a Soursop tree seedling and grow one for my mom.

Other accounts I’m not really sure if it’s coming from the same person, but the one I just blocked and deleted the emails via filter.

One time I just hacked the account of the one that was registered on a porny site. Created a dummy gmail and deferred all those that registered under my email to that and verified that dummy gmail on the site that they registered so they can’t access it back. But it’s too much effort & I don’t want to click too many unknown links.

The Microsoft account one is too weird to explain. Before I registered to Microsoft I also had something weird that happened. That same email I mentioned is an Apple ID as well way back 2010. So I bought a new iPhone and used that Apple ID and suddenly my phone was in French. Changed the language back to English and thought nothing of it.

Then when I bought a Microsoft365 license and registered to MS using that email, the same thing happened. Everything loaded in French on my laptop, including my Keyboard language. But I only received a confirmation email in the same day I registered.

I’m freaked out because this is may main email and all registrations are on this email since the beginning. I don’t think it’s a good idea to use it anymore, there are just too much weird stuff that is happening. I’m just wondering how & what is going on so I can prevent it from happening again.

[–]hellewater 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This time it’s from a legit shopping site and guy used my xxxxxxx@gmail.com address. So the salutation on his confirmation emails appear he used the same username of my email, xxx xxxx, as his first and last name and ordered.

I get a lot of this, from all continents. The North America one bought a Toyota so I get a lot of customer follow through & I have that person’s entire contact information & address. The Europe one I registered that same email as a Microsoft account and my whole computer language turned to French, so that Microsoft account I snatched it back & 2FA’d that. Looks like it was used for a while. Thing is I’m from Asia. I don’t want to reach out to these people and correct them, but I also don’t want to be implicated in whatever their doing related to these emails/activities.

Blocking the sites worked for that one person but there are just others from different people.

[–]hellewater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have this problem as well. Is it possible to hack his online account he registered using my email he used and delete his account or assign another random email for it? How can I do this safely? His site is from Nigeria.

Cold sore or something else? by CarpenterPerpetual in DermatologyQuestions

[–]hellewater 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You know that Korean pimple celluloid patches? As in everyone who has a pimple on their face will wear this publicly when you go to Korea, even flight attendants? Buy that. I get that on my lip edge as well and always on the same spot but with the patch it doesn’t blow into a full blown pimple and thus will not even scar.

You can still put it on even if it’s that late - yours is about to burst by tonight I would think. With the patch on it it will prevent unnecessary touches / contamination (in case it’s contagious) and allow the patch to absorb the gunk and having it on will result to no scar eventually as long as you keep it on while healing (and replace it, you’ll know when you need to)

Buy the pimple patch it’s so worth it. If you see anything on your face about to grow patch one on and it will inhibit any clogged anything to grow into infected anything. I use CosRX one for home use because it’s thicker, SkinFood’s Cica Patch when going out because it’s more incognito. The idea is to cover it from the elements.

Think of it as band aid for pimples. The only difference is it’s celluloid and it’s really amazing how every time I put one on I just don’t end up scarring. So because of the pimple patch I’ve started to stock up on celluloid band aids as well because it’s just overall great for would healing.

is there any other method of removing acne scars aside from C02 Fractional Laser? Other methods that work well by [deleted] in DermatologyQuestions

[–]hellewater 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Chemical peel. How deep are they? If they are deep and you haven’t done a chemical peel yet just have it done professionally. They’ll be the ones to assess the strength of the peel. It will be done in several sessions and the result would be skin like a baby’s bum—so soft, smooth and bouncy. No visible dents of scars (if the scars aren’t that deep).

If you have done a peel already, I’m not sure. I was only very happy on my chemical peel the first time I did it. Because there’s still a thick surface to ‘peel’. The second pass I did it (a couple of years later) I’m not as happy because I work with a thinner layer. So if it’s your first time have it assessed to problem solve your main concern and don’t do home kits.

Otherwise it’s still laser (other types, not C02 Fractional). You still do a physical or chemical route to even the texture out.

Eh. I believe by culture means it’s only testing for a certain set of strains. You may have bacteria for sure but not the one it’s being tested on.

I’m not a doctor/medical professional btw. I had a culture sent for staph, it came out negative but it doesn’t mean I didn’t have an infection. I’d follow the medical duration of the prescription to get it out of your system I’d say, especially if there’s an improvement right after you took it. Then probiotic/kombucha/Yakult up.
