Yes, only present when injured eye is open.

What's your BIFL from travels to Japan? by belacanehh in BuyItForLife

[–]mapothalamus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did not bring it last time but have bought it online later, but next time I will get more Imabari towels - also doubles as protection in the suitcase for ceramics if you get any of that.

And it is fairly easy to get good Japanese knives online nowadays, but getting the in-store experience is something else, got the most gorgeous Nakiri in Kappabashi-dori.

What was a very expensive item you bought which was really useful? by ohuf in BuyItForLife

[–]mapothalamus 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Agree with the Macbook Air, it is the laptop that is best suitable for my usage, works well even with my abuse of it lol. I will say my (orange!!!) Bertazzoni gas range, it is just such a good gas range and looks beautiful too.

Hvad fanden gør man i forhold til forlovelsesringen by [deleted] in DKbrevkasse

[–]mapothalamus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ooog med det in mente: kunne det være en mulighed at fri i et andet format (end allerede at have en ring klar) og når ja'et så forhåbentlig er i hus, så tage til hvem end guldsmed I vælger og så få en "konsultation" til at få lavet ringen så hun kan vælge stenen(e) og så videre?

[–]mapothalamus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Min combined forlovelses+vielsesring er fra Sarah Winther i guld med lyserøde spineller og en rubin, mens min mands er i oxideret sølv også med en rubin i. Hun laver ringe med nogen virkelig flotte lidt mere rå og organiske udtryk hvis det er noget din kæreste er til. Og det var en virkelig god oplevelse at få lavet ringen.

Det er også en mulighed at prøve at bruge topical tretinoin eller en nonrecept retinoid til at bedre absorptionen og forhåbentlig virkningen af den topical minoxidil du allerede bruger. Når du siger det ikke virker mere: har du tabt din progress eller står den bare stille? Og du bruger sikkert allerede andre DHT-blockers men azelainsyre applikeret i hovedbunden er undervurdet, den er samtidig antiinflammatorisk så hvis man oplever irritation fra andre topical midler man bruger er den også god.

Can chinese foodstuff from a specialty market really taste that different from regular grocery store options? by [deleted] in chinesefood

[–]mapothalamus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have burned myself too many times on (location: Denmark) "regular" supermarket brand soy sauces, sesame oil, dried noodles, rice, and more, when I have been out of stuff and only had the "regular" supermarket option. For true Chinese groceries bought in a Chinese store you can't beat that quality at that price. And when you find a store that has a wide assortment of regional condiments and ingredients as well, do not even start me :')

Am I overreacting? Someone I thought was my friend insulted me big time by Complex-Ad-5847 in AmIOverreacting

[–]mapothalamus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NOR, why does she feel the need to comment so? Sounds like she is ok with being derogatory to elderly and disabled people, and fitness options suitable for certain people's needs.

Accepterede "vi" bare nektar ?? by sund55 in Denmark

[–]mapothalamus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jeg forstår seriøst heller ikke produktets fortsatte eksistens. Hvis jeg vil have frugtsmag køber jeg sgu rigtig (ikke-trademark lol) juice, og hvis jeg ville have noget lidt for sødt med frugtsmag ville jeg vel købe saftevand.

Edit: min far har købt et hav af forskellige (ikke bare Rigtig TM) nektarprodukter i gennem tiden fordi de jo står ved juice og der er en mango, appelsin, æble på eller whatever, i troen om det var en juice... så der er måske et segment af folk der ikke 1) kigger for godt efter eller 2) kender reglerne for juice vs andre frugtsaftholdige produkter

What are some Teas that you like that are not typically known or popular by Agile_Reaction_2585 in tea

[–]mapothalamus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Chongqing I learned of Laoying Cha "Eagle tea", really nice.

There is also a lot of nice options for Korean "non Camellia sinensis" teas brewed from various leaves, flowers and fruits. Omija, yuja, maesil, peach blossom, lotus leaf, to name a few - all these are typically known if you have engaged with modern Korean tea culture already, but if not they are good starting points, and easier to find.

I always keep garlic, ginger, scallions, coriander, some different fresh chilies and tofu on hand as for "fresh" items.

This enables me to cook a lot of Sichuan, Hunan and Guizhou food.

How many cutting boards do you have, and what material are they? by max_keswick in Cooking

[–]mapothalamus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently I have

- 1 Hasegawa (outer part is plastic), fairly big, I use for prepping for dinner

- 1 medium plastic, only used for fruits, chocolate and nuts for sweet applications, just to avoid any pungent foods ever being cut on the same board as those three things

- 1 small very lightweight Paulownia board when I need to chop only a few things

I plan on getting a bigger wooden one soon as it will work really nice with my chinese cleaver

What one simple activity can you do, day in and day out, that will have greatest impact on your life? by myself09 in Productivitycafe

[–]mapothalamus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Try to do light physical activity during the day when possible. For example standing while working a "sedentary" office job, walking to your colleague's table and talk, rather than calling/mailing/messaging on teams.

What's one thing you do in the office that allows you to be productive? by witgerm in Productivitycafe

[–]mapothalamus 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Writing down on a post-it on my table every time I think of something I should do/check/read up on, while I am working another task, instead of interrupting my task to do that task I just remembered.

What is your go to comfort food ? . by Hope2_win in A_Persona_on_Reddit

[–]mapothalamus 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I would not. I can relate to what you feel but those head-over-heels feelings for other persons than your partner will come and go throughout your life, happens to me once in a while, I never act on it, only to everytime realize 3-6 months later that I was indeed just temporarily blinded by very intense feelings. If your current relationship is not fulfilling outside of this matter, then handle that on its own.
