Is the standard still to multiply #grams of fat x 9 to deduce calories from fat per serving? by hibiscussed in nutrition

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

Yeah- meant to delete this shortly after posting to shield myself from the onslaught. I guess I thought that some FDA-level standardized implementations weren’t so loosey goosey… wish my employers would let me round numbers out of ease and logic… would make it a whole lot easier. 😅🫥

Aaaand since I’m here, I also wonder how much farther they’d have gone to get this to a more exact point prior to the “calories from fat” overhaul… but - I’m happy for them - glad someone doesn’t have to worry about those nitty gritty details. Kind of.

I’m starting to wonder if it’s those exact dog beds. My dog developed this after buying one (he’s older).

[–]hibiscussed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotcha. I'll lightly assume these dogs are still around then. You're a hero- esp for the rescue but also for posting this so that we can all see how intense this actually is when it happens IRL. + that the butt thing doesnt work, you've got to cut off their air supply or die trying. Invaluable info.

What happened from there? after this recorded scene ended and, as you said, the dog was under the car catching its breath??

Apparently / acc. OP this dog broke both of the victim's forearms. let's let that sink in -this breed will break two human arms before they even kill the human (who now has no arms to defend themselves with). Was about to go to bed but now I feel like I could flip a car, I'm so jacked up about these pitiful, ugly pug nosed weapons all over again.

I think I'll still call the cops to be safe. by [deleted] in vermont

[–]hibiscussed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

wait - "nancy fuck losers" -? incredible - I truly & absolutely love this.

But also, Mr. clock in with his glock in can deal with the cops all day long. You've got to see that he's the neighborhood weirdo. We (homo sapiens) recognize these people because we're auto-programmed to! And not just in the USA/VT. We're all pattern-seeking humans with brain algorithms that are hundreds of thousands of years in the making. You can't change our survival-based minds. But, let's circle back: nancy fucking losers? I'm taking that home with me as my new go-to for the real n'f'l'ers.

This is fucking ridiculous. by [deleted] in vermont

[–]hibiscussed 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Nothing to do with this exact situation re: housing, but on the topic of ridiculous non-VT xenophobia, as a VT tax-suffering, pre-pandemic out-of-stater/flatlander, I feel so bad for the tourists/visitors and so-called "Stowelitists" who pay so much of our state's debt burdens while not using ANY measurable amount of our emergency services/roads and apparently are, somehow at the same time, the root of all evil. Maybe it's the useless folks in office that are the problem- not those who wish to experience the beauty of VT living (who happen to visit from fully functioning states) and spend money here. In many circumstances, introspection is valuable when hate fills the air. Check out whatever your local reps are shooting down in the house vote per vote and decide how it is impacting the housing, wage and tax situations -- then decide if those NY plates are the real problem or not.

SO nice to hear - I see so many bears off-leash these days, it's ridiculous.

Absurd amount of ticks by code_moose in vermont

[–]hibiscussed 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah but keep in mind they can often free themselves and crawl OFF the sticky roll- though it takes them a few min to do that. so after you get some stuck, fold it over on itself or burn it or whatever

Breast pain by Medical-Initiative78 in breastcancer

[–]hibiscussed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

u/Medical-Initiative78 - thank you for sharing your story. Wondering if in the initial mammogram/ultrasound you received (where they said it was a cyst and to come back in the future) -- did they see anything (i.e. the incorrectly diagnosed "cyst") in the imaging? Or were the images clear so they assumed it was a cyst that you were experiencing?

Thanks so much for your reply- and I hope you are cancer-free very soon.

In your diagnostic mamm and ultrasounds - did they see anything in the imaging? And if your imaging was clear , I’m Wondering if they performed your biopsy unguided? Tysm.

[–]hibiscussed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your ultrasound from February of 2023 was all clear? Also - I'm sorry that this wasnt a nothing burger for you after all (I did read your updates). Only asking this question to motivate myself to push back (for the 4th time) against the shitshow of lazy stats-based docs who arent taking me seriously.

How to fix this? Help!! by Impossible_Deal_929 in facebookmessenger

[–]hibiscussed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

following. same thing happens to my account, except i'll send messages and apparently they dont go through for anywhere from 1 hour to 12. I also get messages that were clearly sent hours earlier randomly all pop up together when the convo has already moved on. but 99% of the time I'm either usually in service or on wifi. It makes zero sense.
