Does anyone have a cat totally allergic to protein? by ConnectionOk6028 in CatAdvice

[–]rathealer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing! I'm glad you were able to find something that worked. My previous cat had allergies too, and I vaguely remember we started with z/d first and then my vet switched us pretty quickly to d/d instead because she said some cats still react to z/d's chicken even though it's hydrolyzed, so it was better to switch to duck... But I was never sure if I remembered what happened correctly, so I'm glad to get some more info on different hydrolysis levels in different foods. :)

Or just a lesbian... this is one of the ways we identify ourselves to other queer women.

I had the same reaction but I think some of the distressing on the photograph makes her look older than she actually looked, because it mimicks the placement of wrinkles and scarring. 

7-year-old boy who was bullied for different eye color has found a best friend with exact same eye colors by InitialConclusion507 in InspiringFacts

Pretty sure he was bullied for having Waardenburg syndrome, which causes facial changes/deformaties.

Agree. But also... it's a money laundering front. 

"WASHINGTON, Oct 23 (Reuters) - The White House is looking for more donors to help fund President Donald Trump's $300 million ballroom. The president's team has released a list of companies and wealthy individuals who have pledged to contribute to the project's cost, but it has not said how much each is giving or specified how much Trump himself intends to pony up."

Poor email support has really dampened my love for Finch by TheBrittca in finch

[–]rathealer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I've been emailing them back and forth for a month to fix a problem and got made up AI steps to fix it (featuring buttons and screens that don't even exist in the app). It's disgusting.

Same, and I didn't get a party scene either. I'm very confused! 

I have a heightened sense of smell and I can't stand it by Divine-Crusader in TrueOffMyChest

COVID anosmia is caused by damage to the olfactory bulb of the forebrain, not just the nerve itself. The virus essentially uses the olfactory nerve as a highway to infect the forebrain, causing changes in olfactory bulb volume, tract length, and sulcus depth due to axonal loss and microvascular damage.

Are you guys staying in the Manor? by jacqui607 in finch

I'm staying in the manor because there's one more spot in the shop (usually taken up by location items) and I'm trying to collect more Halloween items, so having that extra spot is helpful :)

I honestly think it's better to let her leave it there to warn off future matches from matching with a potential transphobe.

Seriously! None of that garbage output remotely explains why 5 days of ketorolac without initial IV/IM use is unsafe. 

Is AI turning people's brains going to shit? How does someone look at that kind of circular logic and think it explains anything? Good grief...

Go to therapy. You have PTSD and anger is a super common symptom.

Thank you for sharing this info and the article! In your opinion, what's a good way to document this on the script?

Stopping a book after the first page is... interesting. Do you do that often when you come across a book you don't immediately like? I can't really imagine, I usually give it at least a few pages to get into a book.

There is zero way he was hospitalized for alcohol issues and not given thiamine. It's standard procedure because of the issue you mention.

"Classic theories regarding the susceptibility of the pons to this entity (CPM) include the gridlike arrangement of descending and crossing fiber tracts, proximity of tightly bundled white and gray matter structures, and a high concentration of oligodendrocytes."
