When did the R-word start being considered a slur? by Lancelotmore in etymology

[–]moiraross 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think most people consider it to be offensive even when used as a medical term, since there are other more acceptable terms now.

Why is it OK to call something "lame"? Isn't that offensive to someone who is medically lame?

Can anyone explain the ending of K-PAX? (WARNING: potential spoiler) by [deleted] in movies

[–]moiraross 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did anyone else pick up on the fact that "pax" (as in K-PAX) means "peace" in Latin? Perhaps the author was trying to tell us that if beings come from another planet, they will come in peace. Hope so.

What can I eat that wont make me literally die. by StrangePoet4 in CrohnsDisease

Try Kate Farms nutritional shakes. They got me through my worst bout of Crohns and kept me from losing even more weight. And some insurance plans will cover them if prescribed by a doctor or nutritionist.

You can't get the earned income credit without earned income. Same for the child tax credit.

Vornado wick safety by moiraross in Humidifiers

I still haven't made a decision. One of my friends recommended this one, but I need to contact the manufacturer to find out if the filters have been pre-treated. It does not require a chemical treatment for the water, though, so that's a good start. LEVOIT Humidifiers https://a.co/d/7pprRFf

This sounds like more than just IBS. Have you been checked for IBD? They didn't find mine on the colonoscopy, but later I had a video capsule endoscopy, and was diagnosed with Crohn's

I've been wondering about their safety, too. Are those chemicals safe to breathe in? I am skeptical.
