See, this is what people say, but now that I’ve been reading labels I don’t believe it.
For example, I cannot eat Kellogg’s Rice Krispies, but some off brands are made with a different formula that doesn’t include gluten and is manufactured in a safe environment.
Conversely, I can eat Cheerios, but not most store brands, Lucky Charms but not most store brands, etc.
And that’s just cereal! Even drugs vary wildly. Sure, the active ingredients are the same, but the other contents can really vary.
Some foods have similar ingredients, but are either manufactured on shared equipment with wheat and dairy, or not.
I now believe that most store brands are made in a unique environment. I’m open to being convinced otherwise, but if you need more examples, I can check my cupboard and tell you all kinds of things!
“Oh yeah, that’s the shit! They’re really loving me now!”
My provider claims generics can have different fillers and such. The active ingredients have to be the same, though.
If I really wanted to be sure, I’d ask a pharmacist.
They’re not. I have celiac, and I’ve learned from reading labels that they often have completely different ingredients/manufacturing conditions.
They’re not QC rejects, but they’re also not the same thing repackaged.
I was in the same situation. I started to walk and longboard every day and track my calories without exception.
Eventually, you can see changes and it becomes easier over time, but oh boy I never shame anyone for their body size, because it’s hella hard, and if you’re coping with other problems like depression or addiction, it’s gotta feel damn near impossible.
I’d call a horseologist and tell them to get over here right away, there’s no time to explain
My instance already blocks those, otherwise I’d add those as well

Is there a way that someone can test for this at home? It seems troubling that children had to be poisoned before any action was taken.
I left beehaw because I was being targeted by a user using gaslighting and lies.
When I responded to this user (I will admit, too strongly), the mods removed my comments, but left his initial lies and gaslighting up, even though I had reported them (and even messaged one of the admins directly – it was actually a beehaw admin’s actions against my comments.) To be clear, I understood the removal of my comments, but I did not understand why the user’s lies and rudeness against me still remained.
I mentioned tumblr because it was where the information I was sharing had initiated, and I encouraged people to take the discussion there, since a productive discussion was no longer possible here. I never said I was moving there myself.
I then removed the rest of my comments and posts on beehaw.
I was already on tumblr, so I didn’t “move from” Beehaw to there. I was also already on this account, so nor did I move here – I was already here all along, where I’ve had no similar problems.
I saw a BBC documentary about a similar situation. People are being exploited on both sides of the phone line.
Incorrect. I challenge you to scour my post and comment history for any mention of Hamas or anything that would justify you asking such a question. (I’ll save you some time – you won’t find it.)
Otherwise, we’ll just assume you’re deflecting.
I have no doubt there are official confessions obtained via coercion including threats and possible torture.
Lol gotta love these deflections and whataboutisms. I always wonder if you lot are deliberately deflecting, or if you’re just incapable of engaging in any meaningful way.
This was a good read, thanks. I’ve known so many people who have separated from their parents, and every single one of them has a good reason. I’ve often wondered how the parents tell it from their side. I’m sure every single one of them was “loving” and “nurturing” by their own account, even the dad who couldn’t accept that his son was gay, or the parents who perpetually and deliberately misgendered their daughter. I’ve known so many such cases, and sadly some have ended in tragedy.
Me, I’ve had good parents, but I have a brother who’s an abusive asshole who I want nothing to do with, and occassionally I get the “he’s your brother, you’ve got to love him” schtick from third parties. No. I really don’t.
No one is obligated to stay connected with family who are hurtful, especially when it’s the parents who were the ones who chose to bring you into this world. It’s massively unfair for people to expect that we just tolerate, even love, abusive family.
It’s true that I don’t trust the IDF here, just as I wouldn’t trust the SS in WWII. If you think that’s farfetched, then I will hope you come to your senses.
This is also true. Any way you cut it, the IDF are the villains in this story.
They can also force confessions of terrorism! Pretty bold headline that’s parroting IDF propaganda, if you ask me. Wouldn’t say this article belongs in a news community.
Thank you. I think you’re right. It must be so nice to be able to have a family one can love.
