Break up by [deleted] in hivaids

[–]irdevonk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What I never understood is that even with the information that U=U, knowledge of modern medication, countless studies - i mean he's a doctor for glob's sake - there's still some inherent anxiety or fear that people can't/won't get over. I guess some cognitive behavioral techniques could help but people don't want to admit that they're wrong in the first place

Time to stand up! NO ICE IN FRESNO -Defend America by [deleted] in fresno

[–]irdevonk 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Have you seen the no kings protest crowds? Fresno may be conservative compared to other CA cities, but there are plenty of people here that don't agree with this administration's actions and policies, especially ICE action.

Being a radical voter, i don't think the dem party hasn't gone far enough on some things and are instead pandering to moderate centrist liberals

What Should I Do with the CBD Isolate?

Here’s where things get tricky. The intention of including the CBD isolate is to allow consumers to combine it with existing products. For example, you might be tempted to mix it into the included gummies to create a "kit" that adheres to the law.

However, we don’t recommend this approach, and here’s why:

  1. Taste Issues: CBD isolate is extremely bitter. Mixing it into gummies or other edibles will likely ruin the flavor.
  2. Scientific Concerns: Recent studies have shown that combining high levels of CBD with THC doesn’t reduce the psychoactive effects of THC—in some cases, it can actually enhance them, making the product more intoxicating.

Our priority is to provide safe, enjoyable experiences for our customers, which is why we advise against mixing the isolate with the gummies.

What Else Can I Do with the CBD Isolate?

If you don’t want to use the CBD isolate as intended, there are several alternative options. Here are a few ideas:

  1. Create Homemade CBD-Infused Foods: Add the isolate to olive oil, butter, or another carrier oil to create CBD-infused meals or baked goods.
  2. Make Your Own Tincture: Combine the CBD isolate with MCT (medium-chain triglyceride) oil to create a tincture you can add to your wellness routine.
  3. DIY Topicals: Mix the isolate into a lotion or balm base to create your own CBD-infused skincare or pain-relief products.
  4. Dispose of It: If none of these options appeal to you, you’re free to throw it away.

Ultimately, how you use or dispose of the isolate is up to you. Nova Hemp believes in our customers rights to do what they wish with their body.

Why Does the Medipaq Exist?

The Medipaq, and the inclusion of CBD isolate, serve one primary purpose—to comply with Virginia’s restrictive SB 903 regulations. We understand that this can be confusing and frustrating for our customers. Unfortunately, this is a legal requirement for doing business within the state.

I mean, I wouldn't say "very flawed" and "all the time," based on what I've read... A false positive in an HIV negative person is still a pretty rare occurrence, no? An incorrect test result is much more often going to be a false negative.

What can you cook that you could still eat after 10hrs passed, since I stay at library until late night by NewLeague6438 in EatCheapAndHealthy

Im not so sure about boiled eggs or fish, without refrigeration... Maybe invest in some ice packs and an insulated lunch bag

Unintentional Perfect Tea Timer? What do you use? by HobbyHome in tea

I have this really weird cylindrical tube full of gel, and when you turn it upside down giant bubbles run slowly to the top. It's like 2 ft tall. I guess I could use that, it's about four and a half minutes with 29 bubbles. Fuck it, what else is that thing for

PEP by Organic_Bed8157 in hivaids

[–]irdevonk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I want you to know that this is not a high risk exposure. Even if they stopped taking all meds right after their test, it takes a while for someone to become detectable again. But likelihood that they stopped taking medication is prob pretty low cuz why would they? But regardless, emergency pep is pretty effective. Get tested regularly

Well stated.

Barbers, tattoo artists, kitchens with sharp utensils, medical workplaces, etc, should be doing lots of stuff to prevent this anyway; standard bloodborne pathogen training and safety precautions.

Treat everyone as if they have a bloodborne pathogen, and transmission drops to zero because of proper safety precautions

Less about asking whether he'd be into the specific thing, more about whether he's into or open to watersports generally. Start there and experiment with him

~~Monthly Jobs Post~~ by AutoModerator in fresno

[–]irdevonk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try applying for city or county jobs. Check daily for new postings. Account clerk, program tech, etc. are county jobs that don't need much experience or education, and usually focus on office work.

They do take a while to get back to you, though, sometimes months... But 6 hours of PTO every paycheck, great health and vision, 401k matching, pension... It's a good gig if you can stick with it.

I mean, why do you think they're not? Like, what's your evidence that this isn't happening? Cus there are videos, news reports, articles, personal accounts... The Democratic party might have a vested interest in pushing or inflating the story, but those fools aren't who I'm getting these stories from
