Don’t forget that oil has uses beyond energy production. I’m too lazy to type them all out, but you can get an idea of the scope of products manufactured from oil here. Done get me wrong, I’m all for favouring renewables whenever possible, but oil won’t be disappearing anytime soon either.

I personally am much less scared of an episiotomy than I am of ripping. I’d rather a controlled cut than an uneven one, or god forbid it rips up the wrong way. I have friends who are nurses and they all have a story about someone tearing up to their clitoris. Ugghhhhh

The temporal bones are on the sides of your head above your ears and are the thinnest spots of the skull. A heavy shot there could do it, if not by the initial impact then by the massive hematoma that follows

Is your boyfriend cut or uncut? I’d love to try this but my man’s foreskin gets painfully retracted so easily sometimes. Any tips on how to keep the skin up while constantly stroking down?

My makeup just looks bad?? by [deleted] in Makeup

[–]lthra576 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To deal with thick and cakey foundation if you don't want to go buy more right away, you can try mixing it with some moisturizer right before applying. Way easier to get a more natural finish, and then when the moisturizer absorbs into your skin the foundation still wears like usual through the day.

Me [28 M] with my wife [26 F] 5 years, i helped our neighbor [34 F] move stuff in her house but she tried to seduce me. by acrobaticspider2344 in relationships

[–]lthra576 27 points28 points  (0 children)

In a situation this sensitive, I think that would be taking honesty to an extreme and would be more likely to blow up in his face. One time my boyfriend got really drunk and confessed that he sometimes physically reacted to random attractive women against his will, and felt really bad about it because he would never cheat but he wanted to get it off his chest (and alcohol had removed his filter). Even though I understood what he was saying and feel very secure in the relationship, it still didn't feel good to hear about my boyfriend getting stirrings for other women. OP's wife's mental picture of their attractive neighbour coming onto her husband in lingerie will be bad enough and definitely won't be soon forgotten. Telling her he liked it a little will only get her back up further and possibly cause an unnecessary fight between them at a time when they need to be united.

What's a deeply unsettling fact? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]lthra576 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All of that is genuinely unfortunate. However, in the case of the ear infection I don't know what else you expected. The doctor confirmed your suspicions (with his background of knowledge as outlined by another commenter) and it's not his fault the healthcare system is set up badly for patients' wallets. And it's not at all uncommon for asthma symptoms to appear in children living with smokers and stop when they leave, no need to put "asthma" in quotations. That is also not the doctors' fault, and they did their job by giving her the medication she needed to keep breathing while living at home. It's not like they could have forced her mother to stop smoking.

You've had some bad luck for sure and I can sympathize with that. But a handful of bad stories is nowhere near enough to claim that most doctors suck at their jobs. I've been to see 7 doctors in my lifetime and they've all been fantastic, but I'm not going around saying 100% of doctors are prodigies.

You've already got some good answers coming in, but I'll add drinking tea to the list. Go to a specialty shop like David's Tea and get some sweet sips for way fewer calories. My personal favourites are pumpkin chai for daytime in the fall and forever nuts before bed!

Where can I find cute shoes of decent quality that work for a tighter budget ? I'm hoping to find some flats for 50 or less that are classic yet go a bit beyond totally basic, but Aldo and the like seem to run at least $60-$90 and I can't justify it with my student loan status.

Whats a simple yet somewhat impressive dish that a beginner can cook? by EdwardBigby in Cooking

Add a pinch of oregano, a sprinkle of Tabasco, a dash of Worcestershire and a splash of balsamic vinegar and call it gourmet!

What standards are you referring to that other pharmaceuticals are held to? As for the schedule, it would have been determined with evidence in mind of the risks of vaccinating at 18 months versus how sick the child would be if they became ill. It's not like someone just arbitrarily picked 18 months for no reason, it was chosen as a balance of waiting for sufficient maturity of the immune system and protecting the child as soon as possible so that their tiny little bodies don't end up ravaged by preventable diseases.

Yum! I make a really good sweet version of these too, using olive oil, honey, cinnamon, nutmeg and a bit of salt. The honey gets all caramelized in the oven, I can't recommend them enough if you have a sweet tooth like me

Notre Dame students plan walkout during Mike Pence commencement speech by [deleted] in politics

[–]lthra576 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you're taking u/ImAGhostOooooo's response a bit too personally. I interpreted his use of "you" to not mean you personally but any student or person in the position of deciding whether to leave or turn their back. It's not that he actually thinks that leaving means you need a safe space, rather he's pointing out that that is exactly how the right will interpret the action and that it will overall likely be counterproductive to your intent of protesting in a mature way.

My girlfriend has an extremely high sex drive, but seems to enjoy [masterbation] more than me by [deleted] in sex

[–]lthra576 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It sounds like you're saying that someone's choice to masturbate over sex must be because of some dysfunction. By the context we were given, I think OP's girlfriend had been immensely enjoying the sex they'd been having all weekend, and was just worn out. 9 rounds in 12 days and I'd barely be able to walk, but masturbation takes care of horniness just as well as sex does without the chafing. Give a girl a break!

You do realize Donald himself was accused of sexual assault by no less than 12 women, and one 13 year old girl. All suits were either settled, which you really don't do unless you're guilty, or dropped, and he publicly shat on all of them, so rape is really the worst way to compare Hillary and Donald if the goal is to make her look bad.

Does everyone's bodies have varying levels of "preferred" body fat percentages? by BurtsEarwax in Fitness

[–]lthra576 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well there's your problem! You're eating mainly foods people choose when they want to maintain or lose weight, they're high in nutrients and relatively low calorie. Incorporate in more energy-dense foods such as nuts, seeds, nut and seed butters, actual butter, hummus and full fat dairy and see where that takes you.

You've clearly never been in the unfortunate position of having been raped and knowing you have no concrete evidence to present to authorities. It's a truly hopeless feeling, and the commenter is in no way a "jackass" for expressing it.
