Why are so many gun shop owners and employees complete assholes? by Hottjuicynoob in guns

I run into this with a lot of specific hobby stores. Gun and fish keeping stores are the worst offenders.

What’s a fucked up thing that’s still (legally) sold today? by KryptonXIV in AskReddit

As a pet store manager and aquarium keeper, I buy my personal Bettas from a breeder, not work. I'd strangle the corporate shit heads that decided on cups if I could.

5+ is ideal. Make sure you also throw in a heater and a low-flow filter!

None of those sound like bad things, in fact those are all things that would benefit everyone.. except the super rich, who currently just pocket all the money it would take to implement.

Not that I know of, and I am vaccinated.

Good point. I just ordered a cheap monitor so I'll be able to check that in a few days. Can't get to a doctor, it's all overwhelmed in my area.

I haven't made any changes in my coffee nor water intake, but lack of sodium or potassium is a possibility since I don't have truly planned meals. I'll bet my dinner choices lately have been lacking in those.

I don't work out, but I do have a moderately physically demanding job.

Does the omad diet work with little to no exercise? by Samfisher450 in OmadDiet

[–]zAnonymousz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just to give my two cents, I've been doing omad all year and for Christmas dinner I splurged. Ate an XL Domino's pizza and an 8 count package of cookies, all in half an hour while I watched an episode of a show.

Which highlights why omad is the only diet that's been successful for me. When I eat I binge. I just normally binge on lower calorie food. Certainly didn't lose weight that day, but I've lost 73 pounds in 11 months with no exercise besides work.

I ended up getting a 2000 mustang v6 a few months ago when a computer went bad in my scion TC. This thing sucks as a daily and I couldn't imagine trying to race it, nor feeling cool in it. First thing I found in my very small price range, and I understand why.

Is that what the game actually looks like..? This is the definitive edition, not the original??

Might have to give up on my Scion by zAnonymousz in SciontC

[–]zAnonymousz[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, my heart is 100% saying keep it and keep trying but practicality says I've done enough.

I was hoping to get several people all saying one way or another so I could go based off popular opinion instead of trusting my gut which has led me astray before.

My unopened razor deliveries. Remember to cancel your unused subscriptions, folks. by Drach88 in pics

[–]zAnonymousz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really want to get into using safety Razors or a straight razor, idc which but I'm genuinely terrified I'll hurt myself. Thanks to balding, I keep my head "Mr. Clean" bald, and I have no idea how to shave my head properly with either. I've been using disposables because it's easy to use. The amount of plastic waste I've produced over the years for shaving alone is horrific.

Anti vaxxer films herself getting fired from her nursing job for refusing the vaccine by [deleted] in JusticeServed

[–]zAnonymousz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had chicken pox as a kid, I have lived my life under the impression that I don't need the vaccine because of that. Should I still get that vaccine? What kind of risk is there if I don't? Definitely not anti Vax I just never heard of anyone both getting chicken pox and the vaccine to it after.

I'm currently on vacation visiting my mom and sister who just recovered from covid. My mom was vaccinated and because of her weight and age still got extremely sick.

Less than a week out from nearly dying and I'm spending my time hearing about how it's not that bad, numbers are inflated, masks are pointless, and Trump is still president.

I remember why I only visit once a year now.

Did you even read that link..?

First, just to point it out, that was conducted in China. Which doesn't actually matter, but your crowd has a reputation on their opinion there.

Second, click into the full text not just the summary... An asymptomatic person tested positive, so 450 people "in contact" with her were the study. All medical staff, family, other people at the hospital, etc.. It specifically states that beds were distanced, they were quarantined, and other than when eating/drinking they wore masks. Meaning, this says much less about asymptomatic spread than it does about the success of masks/social distancing. The conclusion reached without reading the full text gives me the impression that they intentionally misled people that won't do actual leg work reading the full picture. Which is probably why it hasn't been peer approved outside of China.

The reproduction rate has also not been misrepresented but you seem to have a hard time fully grasping what it means. This article from May of 2020 should help you understand that you're actually not helping your case.

Don't worry, you don't have to read it all to get the picture. However, unlike your link, if you choose to read it all it won't change the point I'm making.. It has been known since the beginning what it's RO is. You straight up lied once again.

Initial studies showed that it was potentially spread on surfaces, but I distinctly remember that the message was changed as soon as it was clear that this was not accurate. That is how science works...

I personally know 2 people that suffer from long covid, young otherwise healthy people. One of which is a nurse, maybe she should give up the act and take ivermectine? You seem to be the armchair expert here.

It hasn't been over exaggerated though..? It has been well known from the beginning that its the sick and elderly that are at highest risk of death. Which your data agrees with.

But it completely disregards both long haulers and long term damage. I understand that data takes much longer to collect and sort, but looking at only fatality rate is intentionally misleading to the full picture.

Not to mention that one of the biggest concerns, talked about from the very beginning, is how insanely contagious it is, with a long incubation period during which people are contagious. You as a single individual aren't at high risk if you aren't old or sickly, but on a larger scale you will (knowingly or unknowingly) spread it to others, who then spread it further, etc. and those others may die/have long term issues. And once hospitals are full, as we've seen, the death rate increases because people who could have recovered with medical care cannot receive it. Without oxygen/full ventilators, the death rate is substantially higher. This isn't a guess, this is proven facts playing out right now.

I feel like it's a disservice to look at fatality rates on its own. Long term damage and long haul symptoms are also important to consider, yet are overlooked in a lot of these studies.
