I’m not a big fan of being proselytized, in other words, induced to switch my diet to one that’s unbalanced (e.g. requiring supplementation). I could understand it if my health was at risk, if the way I eat now raised my blood sugar, ballooned my waist circumference, made me insulin resistant and sluggish, clogged my arteries, hiked up my triglycerides, especially if it were my doctor lecturing me.
But someone who sees I’m height-weight proportionate, who can tell by my hair and skin I am healthy, who launches into her “-ism” and recitation of nutrition myths easily countered by a load of recent research available on PubMed, when it’s not solicited, and when she has no nutritional or medical background, should maybe be quiet.
“Here, Jemmie Duffs, you’ll do yourself a favour if you eat the same way your super-fit and active brother with hypertension ate for six months and then died three months later.”
Me, when I don’t catch all of my myriad typos until I reread my comment hours later to remember what someone is replying to, and then my grammat OCD earns me one of those little edit pens.
Fucking Google and their fucking amp links. They make sharing links much more painful, they typically break inline search because of how they virtualize content, they mess up formatting, there’s no good way to view the source page, and basically offer no real benefit to me with a modern smartphone with a decent browser.
Worst of all there’s no way to stop Google from presenting them in search results. So, fuck Google and fuck amp.
Yeah. I switched my phone to search via DDG to get rid of those fucking things. I like the idea of low data usage, but not at the cost of breaking sharing.
I had a labial frenectomy today - lower lip, nothing major.
I had it done at the dentist, so I planned it the way I usually plan my dental appointments - get it done in the morning, then come into work.
What I did not plan for is that, as the anesthetic wears off, I am beginning to learn that this stings like crazy. not, like, crying in pain, but probably above my threshold for thinking deeply about code bugs
And the way those loading ads make everything constantly shift around on Android, trying to navigate is like trying to stab a rolling marble with a toothpick.
