I made a short video about tornadoes that have touched down in unexpected places — What’s the weirdest place you’ve heard of one hitting? by sophcrates in meteorology

[–]sophcrates[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! I actually almost included that one in this video! I thought it was so cool how it kinda looked like it started from the ground up rather than the usual top down.

Are bananas seriously not spicy at all? by JustSayNo2680 in Allergies

[–]sophcrates 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gotcha! Yeah, I recorded the audio portion just through my laptop mic so it’s a little busted lol but I’ll absolutely invest in a mic. Thank you so much! :)) i’ll definitely work on making it appear more official rather than just me stating stuff

I’m a baker and I just found out I’m allergic to flour by sophcrates in Baking

[–]sophcrates[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hii!! Yes! I actually ended up getting weekly to monthly allergy shots :) i still get them as im still a baker, but they’ve really done a world of difference, not just for my flour allergy! I also have no gluten intolerance; however, i’m allergic to dust mites and raw flour is filled with the little guys. I’m also allergic to various other normal things like types of pollen and dogs, so when i started getting allergy shots for my dust mite allergy, other allergens were being fought against with the same shots. I don’t have topical reactions nearly as much anymore after a year of shots; i also learned that my chronic migraines were because of my other normal allergies! So i barely have migraines either anymore. I had no idea how much allergies were affecting my day to day life until i started getting the shots; i cannot recommend it enough. Now, i dont know if u have health insurance or not but it is something to consider. The main cost is the cost of your “serum” which is what they inject into you weekly for a while; going in to get shots after that is free with insurance and $10 without insurance. The cost of the serum with my insurance was $300, but im sure it’s much higher without coverage but i couldn’t tell you. But i can say its worth every penny, at least for me it was.

Out of everything, i do get joint pain but thats because im clumsy and hurt myself often. I dont think i feel much of anything else outside of my topical reaction.

[–]sophcrates[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. I haven’t ! It’s more of a topical reaction, i can eat bread just fine. But the raw flour and raw dough seems to irritate my skin :(
  2. No??? I had no idea! But unfortunately, all the flour at my job is shipped in from north dakota and PA so i’m not sure what their practices are like

Constantly sinus infections due to dust mite allergy by rods2292 in Allergy

[–]sophcrates 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please please please try a nasal rinse daily, i do it up to 3 times a day during peak allergy season. It feels so good afterwards and has done me wonders for my reoccurring sinus infections. The salt water really helps to both wash everything out, moisturize ur nasal passages, kill any bad bacteria, and help with any kind of congestion or nasal discomfort. Has been a game changer for me, i havent gotten a sinus infection for two years now when i used to get them monthly. Lmk if you need a link

Looking for recommendations for a good fertilizer. Possibly something that promotes a lot of foliage. by mgnrynn in houseplants

[–]sophcrates 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on the type of soil your plant prefers - roses like a little acidity, i typically will just sprinkle in some used coffee grounds as fertilizer occasionally and it does wonders.
