  • Ugh, I would have been a miserable puddle of sensory overload. Kinda glad the nhs doesn’t have the budget for that kind of thing now.

    As far as I know I’m the only one without high blood pressure in my family too, it’s weird how stress can break us so differently despite the shared genes.

    Thank you for the Vitassium link!



  • What was the sweat test like? Did they just end up being like, “Yep, you’re all hot and sweaty now. Looks like you weren’t lying about that.” and that was it?

    My heat regulation is completely borked and I pour with sweat if I am moving around for long enough to warm up, it’s awful. I’m on 5 to 10 litres of water a day, depending on if I’m able to get up and do stuff that day or not, I think I’d die of dehydration if I was only on 3.

    Guessing all the electrolytes you’re taking help with retaining the water though? I should look into that, there’s only so much salty popcorn I can eat.








  • Yeah but a roll of biscuits where I’m from is a packet of hobnobs, which are already cooked when you buy them and would probably be called something like ‘a stack of cookies’ in your country.

    So in the usa a roll of biscuits is the name for the raw dough in a cardboard cannister, that you portion and bake yourself, right?

    And usa biscuits are kinda similar to english scones.

    So is the packaging pressurised because the dough is yeasted/leavened? Or because of being packaged with a non oxygen gas as a preservative? I know you guys really like long shelf lives with your processed foods.

    Would nitrogen be used? Or is carbonated dough a thing? And would that even work as a preservative or a leavening agent? Nah, thinking about it force carbonation in dough would be likely be bitter and have a really rank texture once baked.

    Ok, so it’s probably nitrogen or maybe bicarb? Would bicarb remain stable and unreacted in the dough for a full shelf life, and still work?

    And I think usa biscuits are unlikely to be a yeasted, I remember usa folk on baking subreddits talking about only ever using yeast for bread and how they found it very weird and ‘not normal’ that yeast in cakes/non-bread baked goods is a thing in other places.

  • The next shooter is already out there writing his manifestos like -

    Guys I swear to god I’m not a woke gay trans lib, I’m a real american nazi man who only likes other real american nazi men, but not in a gay way because I’m so straight I don’t even wipe my ass or like touching my dick. I’m the complete opposite of a gay woke trans lib, so don’t call me that, it’s not who I am.

    Anyway, I believe we’re still not oppressed enough as a nation and I’m very angry about it and I have lots of guns. So please don’t call me a lib trans gay woke trans lib gay in the media after I shoot this guy. I mean it guys, it’s not funny.

    All my hate,

    What does it mean if you make a creaking noise when you breathe? If you make a creaking noise when you breathe it means you have a rusty lung.

    Rusty lung cancer can be easily treated at home with a vape pen and DW40, by filling the tank and taking deep puffs. This will clean your lungs and make you cough up all the rust.

    Rusty lung cancer symptoms, red or brown mucus is common with rusty lung cancer, especially following treatment.
