You need to start reading things more closely. Are you stoned right now or something? If you actually read what I wrote, you would recognize that I had already read those sources. If you read more closely, you would probably know that Tylenol is also not an NSAID.
My dude, what are you actually talking about? Call me a skeptic but I must take with a massive grain of salt what you say when you confuse Tylenol as being an NSAID — something that is very easily looked up; so I can’t even tell if you’re confusing studies conducted on Ibuprofen versus Tylenol.
The studies you mention elsewhere:
Yes, if you take FOUR GRAMS within a 24 hour period, that can cause damage. People are dumb and don’t read labels and take in excess.
If you take the recommended dosage of 325mg even every 4 hours as opposed to 6, you’re still under 2 grams in a 24-hour period.
Yes, Tylenol is less effective than Ibuprofen for things like headaches and inflammatory pains because — again — it is NOT a Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID).
Don’t be stupid: Don’t take Tylenol with Alcohol, use it acutely, and follow the instructions and you’ll be fine so long as you discuss with your doctor. Not rocket science.
Obviously the dose makes the poison. You can literally poison yourself by drinking water in excess, too.
Tylenol (acetaminophen) is not an NSAID.
Ibuprofen is.
Ibuprofen particularly can mess up kidneys and stomach lining with chronic use especially. Meanwhile Tylenol tends to be a bit harder on the liver but is otherwise generally considered safer. This based on my hospital stay as a patient and the doctors veering me away from ibuprofen and toward tylenol, and my wife who is an RN.
I very much avoid both to the best of my ability but ibuprofen in particular (even though for me it’s WAY more effective), and the only time I’ve really used either with any temporary regularity was with kidney stone, pneumonia, sepsis (all three at same time, mind you), and omicron covid I think it was. Tylenol is generally considered to be safer than Ibuprofen, unless you have preexisting liver issues.
Do vitamins & minerals count? Beside those my goal is none and so far so good…
Thanks, I’ll definitely be trying liquid smoke next! I really should start messing around with curry seasoning more. I might also try to find aged cayenne pepper to see if that makes any difference, too.
Good suggestion! I did try that but unfortunately it didn’t seem to be it. Unless I just didn’t put enough in.
I think I stumbled across it somehow with air frying pickled jalapeños alongside the tofu but couldn’t replicate it. Not sure if it had to do with the vinegar or crisped/burnt jalapeño, etc.
Tell me the secret to buffalo flavoring for fried tofu! I’ve got the crisp coating down pretty well using either potato or corn starch but I’m missing some sort of almost smoky-peppery flavoring that is so textbook of, say, Tyson chicken strips or something. I feel I’ve stumbled across it once or twice but never actually isolated the spice.
Obviously I’ve dumped tons of garlic, onion powder, black pepper, cayenne powder, and no amount of frank’s does the trick lol.
Second to that I’m trying to remake an Americanized Korean Hot sauce I had before that is definitely one part frank’s and I think gochugang but again, missing something else.
Can you take meeee hiiigherrrrr (banawanylanaoooo)
I too came here to mention P.O.D.
Youth of the Nation is definitely on the list of best songs ever made in my opinion.
I wasn’t religious at this point but my brother in-law who listened to Skillet and 12 Stones and they had some catchy songs.
Crysta from Fern Gully
Or Gadget from Chip 'N Dale.
My family including my parents moved from rural conservative to progressive left (probably somewhere around Social Democrat).
I’ve spent A LOT of time trying to truly reach out to conservatives, Trump supporters, from this angle. It requires a lot of time, but know two key things:
All you can do is plant seeds for neurons to grow. Belief structures get locked in like worn paths through a jungle, and so carving new ways requires an immense amount of time. You’ll never see the fruits of your labor yourself — both because the vast majority of people have an ego they protect at all cost, and because by the time something “clicks” and new neural paths build, you’ll be long gone.
Always recognize that your target audience is not the individual, themselves, necessarily, but the onlookers to the discussion. Always hold the high road. Always be courteous and let them throw the first punches. You’ll have a much easier task convincing the fence-sitters whose egos aren’t directly on the line as a direct participant in the conversation.
You can increase the probability you’ll reach these people by ending the conversation on a cordial note once you realize arguments are starting to become circular. You also know you made some decent ground if they just ghost the conversation or delete their entire comment chain without warning. You pierced their ego; they feel embarrassed. You’ve given them food for thought. Try to also frame how you got out of the echo-chamber so it’s not necessarily an attack on them, but an example of growth on yourself.
It’s a thankless task, the victories you’ll never see until we see it on a statistical level. The problem is that it’s a competition for who commands their attention the most, and you’ll never compete with Twitter, Fox News. You just have to hope they have that eureka moment, combined with perhaps a direct run-in with the fascism you warn about.
I’d double RAM and dump the rest into a new GPU. Beyond that you might as well save for a new rig.
Music. Listening; creating… Doesn’t matter. It soothes the soul.
I do appreciate television to be able to make people feel or convey a concept to those who otherwise might not get it. The Handmaid’s Tale changed a lot of lifelong Republicans to Democrats, for example.
I don’t think the vaporized petroleum is supposed to be on top of your engine block, but rather remain quite within it.
A mall store called World of Science back in the day helped propel my interest in science and exploration. Miss that store…
I miss the nostalgia of going to Toys R Us with my parents. I can still smell that new plastic smell occasionally that takes me back. I wonder what type of plastic that is because it seems more rare nowadays… Certainly carcinogenic lol.
As so easily predicted, immediate deflections away from the most clear-cut logical and ethical choices anyone could possibly make. Trump thanks you for your service, you good little accelerationist, you ;)
Edit: not sure why you deleted that. Also, I read that book. And Blowback. And A People’s History. Ever read The Shock Doctrine?
I’m pretty sure they were attacking people over their stupidity in falsely equating Harris to Trump and the comparative damage they’d have for not just the genocide in Gaza, but also Russia’s genocide in Ukraine. Anyone who felt they were the same deserves many “🤣” for their performative BoTh SiDeS grandstanding.
I’ve already planned with my wider family that for the next 4 years we aren’t doing jack shit for holidays. No black friday (tbh we never did anyway), no cyber Monday. No gifts for Christmas.
A surprise half day at work. Outside, it’s beautiful. Bonus if it goes into your weekend.
Already did. This discussion is useless. Bye.
