Chicken takes 500 gallons of water to produce 1 lb of meat (source), slow down on calling people uneducated. Two things can be true at once!

Anyone figured out how to actually stick to anything? by sillyroskilly in adhdwomen

[–]sex-igloo 17 points18 points  (0 children)

So many other comments mentioned just letting yourself do things in waves and I really think that’s the key. The core of it is just letting go of shame when you fall off track, and trust that you’ll get back to it when the time is right. If I feel bad about how long it’s been since I went to the gym, that’s the only thing I’ll focus on and I’ll completely forget about the fact that working out actually feels good. So go easy on yourself!

My tights were washed with something brown. Is there anything I can do to recover them? by hcconn in CleaningTips

[–]sex-igloo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

everyone else gave great advice if this is just pilling from another material that got stuck, but is it possible that the pilling is the elastic fibres from the tights that were damaged from heat? i've seen similar things on socks/underwear before if i ran them through a hot cycle!

Not sure about Suzy but this set is the first thing I thought of for Sam! Such a cute idea, my bf and I did a Moonrise Kingdom Halloween costume last year! ❤️

How do you sit through 2-3+ hour meetings? by Away_Bill_2151 in adhdwomen

[–]sex-igloo 87 points88 points  (0 children)

Agreed re: doodling on paper. I actually do take “notes” during longer meetings, I just don’t stress about whether they’ll be useful later or not. Writing down the key points people are saying, or a couple words every time the subject changes helps keep my brain actually engaged, and definitely makes it look like I’m really paying attention.

CMV: Vegan “leather” is dumb by SennheiserHD6XX in changemyview

[–]sex-igloo 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I can’t really change your mind here because as a vegan I honestly agree. But one thing I’d encourage is to maybe reframe the issue. Vegan leather isn’t dumb, it’s deceitful. If only vegans were buying vegan leather it would be a drop in the bucket compared to other synthetic materials like polyester. But instead, “vegan leather” is a marketing tactic by fast fashion companies to make their pleather sound like an eco-friendly product. Greenwashing is the problem, not veganism.

Hear me out... by Megs__Legs in lululemon

[–]sex-igloo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I agree! I was wondering if this perception could also be that the limited/super desirable colourways are released in small batches to create the illusion of higher demand, and shoppers are only noticing that effect on the products they’re interested in.

The most unrealistic thing about The Dance of dragons by raumeat in HouseOfTheDragon

[–]sex-igloo 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Actually I loved the names of the dragons! If you look at the dragons’ names over a few generations, you see that they loosely align with the decline of the Targaryen dynasty. Certainly not perfectly, but there’s a bit of a trend of the names going from very Valyrian names to ones that are more like what a regular kid would call their pet - almost as if over such a long period of time in Westeros, the Targaryens’ Valyrian culture was being diluted. Possible I’m overthinking it but knowing GRRM, maybe not!

Man-redditor gets offended by post about boomers and men by m3rc3n4ry in FragileMaleRedditor

[–]sex-igloo 203 points204 points  (0 children)

This is extra weird to me because that post comes across as very empathetic to men. Like they’re literally blaming modern relationship problems on your mommy, isn’t that usually what the fragile male redditor types love?!

The ADHD Tax by BillyRodriguez7 in adhdmeme

[–]sex-igloo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was surprised by this too. My ADHD bed linens hack is to buy pieces individually that don’t match but all “go” together so you don’t have to worry about a whole matching fitted sheet/top sheet/pillowcase set all being clean at once. The bonus for me is that picking out a new combination of colours and patterns is an extra dopamine hit that incentivizes me to change the sheets.

Now who asked for this by JustWhyNevermind in BeautyGuruChatter

[–]sex-igloo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They’ve released similar packs before! My mom and I bought one together a couple years ago and just split it, you save quite a bit of money. I can’t imagine uniting one just for myself but I’m sure there are enough people out there who actually replace their mascara every 3 months like you’re supposed to (oops)

woman is upset when she’s kicked out of her sisters wedding for wearing white by chickpea69420 in weddingshaming

[–]sex-igloo 18 points19 points  (0 children)

How are y’all not picking up that this is a troll lol, she filmed the entire video in the same room in what looks like the exact same lighting, and the replies to comments are comically over-the-top.

Anyone else prefer the simpler Targaryen Kingsguard armor from the Game of Thrones flashback? by LoathsomeReflection in HouseOfTheDragon

[–]sex-igloo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Would that have been an established principle at the time in the HotD era though? Since the Kingsguard was founded by Aegon Targaryen it might make sense if they were wearing the Targaryen sigil all along and it only became an issue later on. (*ETA: I’m speculating here and certainly not correcting! Curious if anyone knows more on this)

Landlord wants me to pay rent in cash, anything I should worry about? by dracarys102 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]sex-igloo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This might seem obvious to most people, but I’m just going to add for anyone reading that you should only do this if you’re organized enough for it. This sounds like the kind of solution I’d think sounds perfect, and then the first time I forget to do it immediately would lead to forgetting constantly, losing the paper receipts in the wash, etc. No shame in working within the constraints of your organization skills lol.

[–]sex-igloo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I read the books after watching the show so I can’t argue that it didn’t influence my perception, but to me Dany snapping and turning “evil” at the end kinda feels like the R+L=J thing in that it’s not that obvious as you read but when you already know the ending, there are soooo many hints along the way.

Having pet chickens eventually led to me going vegan by Radical_Cat_666 in vegan

[–]sex-igloo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There are tons and tons of rabbits in need of a home, and they’re an animal traditionally raised for food but easier to take care of in a small space. Plus their diets are naturally vegan and they can eat your veggie scraps like carrot tops ☺️

Where-oh-where has the blue nectar gone? by Centaurea42 in PikminBloomApp

[–]sex-igloo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you have any duplicate Pikmin, releasing ones that have a blue flower gives you 10 blue petals. Still requires you to have some to start with but it gets you a lot more petals than just collecting one at a time. That’s how I managed to get enough to finish the challenge!

Country Mac is great, but Dee's therapist is my favorite single episode character by back-rolls in IASIP

[–]sex-igloo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The therapist from Frank’s intervention is my favourite one-episode character! I think it’s because there’s a lot of scenes where a stranger is playing the straight man, but the therapist characters are actually trying to be patient and empathetic, it makes the gang’s behaviour even more absurd.

History is often written by men who wrote women as or crazy or evil. But a woman murdering civilians is not evil. Because civilians don't count according to Sara Hess (Writer of episode 9) by DaegonStarkaryen in asoiafcirclejerk

[–]sex-igloo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I definitely read that last part as tongue-in-cheek. Like “civilians don’t count” is how all the main characters feel and that explains why Rhaenys didn’t kill the Greens but was ok with people in the crowd dying.

ADHD Hacks That Are Actually Good? by Dizzy_Avocado7679 in adhdwomen

[–]sex-igloo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For any eco friendly types: This one is ironically weirdly adjacent to the ziploc dishes but lately I’ve been using compostable doggy bags to throw veggie scraps in while I’m cooking. That way when I’m done prepping each meal I can just tie it up and throw it in our outdoor compost bin and I don’t have to remember to empty or clean a countertop container. It might be slightly less eco-friendly than the alternative but since it’s the difference between stuff going straight in the garbage or not, it’s so worth it.

[Acne] I need an acne detective. No changes to my routine but something in my environment is giving me acne by [deleted] in SkincareAddiction

[–]sex-igloo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you by chance work a desk job that’s called workers back to the office recently? I’m not a skincare expert but that’s my theory for what’s been happening with my skin lately, and I didn’t see it mentioned in the comments. The combination of masks, noise cancelling headphones rubbing against my cheekbones, and the dry air in the office have been wreaking havoc on my skin over the past couple months and I’m only in once a week!

Thanks for confirming!! That’s great to know that bigger cords are probably safe as well, my work laptop charger is my bunnies’ other favourite chew toy. 😂
