2024.05.21 21:47 CryptographerOld6569 IM DONE YAYYY

So finally after a year im finishedddd. I started on 30mg, had to drop to 10 and build back up to 30 because of some bad blood tests and then was on 40mg from october until late april. Then started lowering from 30 to 10 again and now im done!!!!! First 2 pics are the day i started, the rest were during the purging period and after that calmed down a bit and last 4 are last month and today. Im so happy like I genuinely feel so confident, only thing left is scaring and im talking with my derm abt doing some treatment about that. My side effects werent severe, i had the typical dry lips and scalp, hair breakage, rash on my hands, sore back and body aches. My weirdest side effects would be that my boobs got smaller and my pms symptoms were and still are completely different since i started taking 40mg. It really is worth it though, the best decision i ever made so just keep going even if you get discouraged.

2024.05.21 21:22 SomeGuysFarm In search of : possibly Eastern-European (influenced??) spaghetti-sauce-ish dish

Greetings kind Redditors. I'm looking for suggestions that might lead me to an origin for a pasta dish that my mother's family used to make.
What's distinct about it is that as a "sauce", it's almost completely dry. To see it, you'd think it was spaghetti noodles tossed with browned, drained ground beef, but that doesn't land on the right flavor profile so I'm missing something that I can't put my finger on.
The primary ingredient was ground beef, browned in some collection of spices (with probably not much paprika, as the oil was a little orange, but it didn't stain spaghetti noodles bright red). I suspect there might have been a small amount of tomato paste (or knowing my grandmother, catsup), almost sure there were sauted onions, possibly a small amount of some sauted bell peppers. A small amount of cubed tomatoes might have gone in fairly late - I can't decide if I'm imaging or actually remembering the presence of tomato chunks. Grated parmesan was added late, making the "sauce" even drier than it would have been from just those ingredients mixed.
Yes, I grew up completely unaware that the "normal world" used liquidy-tomato-sauce sauces on spaghetti...
Anyway - I can't figure out even what to search for to try to find a recipe similar to this, and I'm failing to find some critical ingredient in trying to reinvent it from scratch.
I'm hoping that perhaps this rings a bell as something related to/derived from some regional/Eastern-European canonical dish. My mother's side of the family is Hungarian, and a reasonable amount of meals that my mother made have clear Hungarian/Polish/other Eastern European influences or origins - her Leves for example is pretty much straight classical Hungarian Husleves, including the entire obsessive-compulsive straining and separating process of preparing the beef broth, so I'm hoping that this is something that evolved from, and might be somehow traced back to that heritage.
Any assistance, suggestions or points most appreciated!

2024.05.21 21:19 R1VER-TREE Four Elements of Creation

The four elements of creation. Fire, water, earth and air, comprise the characteristics of all that is within the visible and the invisible universe. Seen on the elemental square. The characteristics of each element is described by their image and likeness. For example: Fire is dry and hot, water is wet and cold. Air is wet and hot, and earth is cold and dry. All created things (creatures) have an image and likeness - that manifest in the visible and invisible universe. For example, one may have a cold demeanour, a dry sense of humour, a hot appearance or idiomatically, be a wet rag.
These four elements were created by God and denoted in the book of Genesis. In the first chapter of the Bible, Genesis one. The statement God “calls” is written five times in regards to naming his creation. (1) The light was called Day, (2) the darkness was called night, (3) the firmament was called Heaven, (4) the dry land was called earth and (5) the waters were called seas. Looking closely through the lens of the LAW OF CORRESPONDENCE. We observe that each naming ceremony written in the first book of Genesis denotes one of the four elements. With one additional element - ether - attributed to the darkness.

You may also check this guide at https://docs.google.com/document/d/1wt1e7uSzrrNgprYYTbobxdyk4zVnK3p761WbjnbhinU/edit?usp=sharing

Kit Explanation

Firefly is a 5-star Fire Destruction character. Her kit focuses around two phases:
The basic state, with a skill that costs 40% of her max HP to gain 60% of her max Energy; and the Complete Combustion state she can enter for a limited time by using Ultimate.
In Complete Combustion state, Firefly gains an enhanced Basic Attack and Skill, a good amount of SPD, Weakness Break Efficiency which lets her break enemies faster, and Super Break DMG against broken enemies.
The enhanced attacks in Complete Combustion state (enhanced state for short here on out) also heal herself. The Enhanced Skill implants a Fire weakness on all targets. In both forms, Firefly also takes reduced damage the lower her HP is, and gains bonus Break Effect based on her ATK.
In short, she cycles between a form that sacrifices HP to get energy, and a stronger form that gets huge benefits from Break.
Firefly has a kit with powerful dual stat scaling, no innate supportive capabilities and high SP consumption, which means her best role is that of a Hypercarry supported by multiple amplifiers.

Sample Setups

These are merely samples! You can choose your teams freely, there’s good freedom for the sustain in particular. For replacements, check the sections further down the guide. For different supports, use their regular builds.
Standard Team: Firefly, Harmony Trailblazer, Ruan Mei, Gallagher
This is the default Break team, highly synergistic and what most people will be running. It requires a single extra limited character in Ruan Mei, and has very high payoff. Gallagher, Break Firefly’s best sustain from a damage standpoint, is a free event reward in Firefly’s patch.
Budget Team: Firefly, Harmony Trailblazer, Asta, Gallagher
A team featuring 3 free characters and Firefly, for anyone who doesn’t have Ruan Mei. Has very high performance for the cost.
Firefly
LC: Whereabouts Should Dreams Rest > On the Fall of an Aeon > Indelible Promise
Relic Sets: 4-Pc [Iron Cavalry Against Scourge], or [2-Pc Break Effect set bonus + 2-Pc Break Effect set bonus] + 2-Pc [Forge of the Kalpagni Lantern], or [Talia]
Main Stats: ATK% Body / SPD Boots / ATK% Sphere / Break Effect Rope
Substats: Enough SPD to get to 210 in enhanced state, then as much Break Effect as possible (ATK% also good, not as good as BE)
Harmony Trailblazer
LC: Past Self in Mirror > Memories of the Past > Meshing Cogs
Relic Sets: 4-Pc [Watchmaker], or [2-Pc Break Effect set bonus + 2-Pc Break Effect or SPD set bonus] + 2-Pc [Talia], or [Forge of the Kalpagni Lantern], or [Fleet]
Main Stats: HP% or DEF% Body / SPD Boots / HP% or DEF% Sphere / Break Effect Rope
If you only have one Past Self in Mirror or Memories of the Past, HTB has priority on using the better one, as it uses both better than Ruan Mei. HTB has priority on using Watchmaker as well.
Substats: Enough SPD to be faster than Firefly and/or meet Talia’s requirement, then all-in on Break Effect (middle priority to improve)
Ruan Mei
LC: Past Self in Mirror > Memories of the Past > Meshing Cogs
Relic Sets: 4-Pc [Watchmaker], or [2-Pc Break Effect set bonus + 2-Pc Break Effect or SPD set bonus] + 2-Pc [Vonwacq], or [Penacony], or [Fleet]
Main Stats: HP% or DEF% Body / SPD Boots / HP% or DEF% Sphere / Energy Regen Rope
Substats: Break Effect (minimum 100%, can stop at 160%) + SPD (middle priority to improve)
Asta
LC: Meshing Cogs
Relic Sets: [2-Pc Break Effect set bonus + 2-Pc Break Effect or SPD set bonus] + 2-Pc [Penacony], or [Fleet]
Main Stats: HP% or DEF% Body / SPD Boots / HP% or DEF% Sphere / Energy Regen Rope
Substats: Enough SPD to be faster than Firefly, then all-in on Break Effect, more SPD is good too (low priority to improve)
Gallagher
LC: Multiplication / What is Real? (Multiplication is priority if it feels safe enough)
Relic Sets: [2-Pc Break Effect set bonus + 2-Pc Break Effect or SPD set bonus] + 2-Pc [Talia], or [Forge of the Kalpagni Lantern], or [Fleet]
Main Stats: Outgoing Healing Body / SPD Boots / HP% or DEF% Sphere / Energy Regen Rope
Substats: As much SPD as possible, Break Effect is good as well (low priority to improve)
Note: The Planar set bonuses are the least important part of the builds for anyone but Firefly. If you get the main stats on other sets, or even incomplete sets, it’ll only result in a minor decrease in team performance.

Stat Building

Speed
210 SPD while transformed is not detailed in a trace, but is the requirement for Firefly to get a 4th action within her Ultimate without external sources of action advance, and also 3 actions on a wave change while the countdown is currently on the action bar. Because of that, it’s extremely important to attain this breakpoint.
Reaching it will generally require SPD boots, together with another source of speed, like the Forge set bonus, substats or smaller buffs such as Ruan Mei’s talent.
A stable 165 SPD while untransformed, equaling 225 SPD while transformed, is the breakpoint for getting 3 Enhanced Actions in the first cycle without any external Action Advances. This speed will require a decent amount of substats, but is worth considering if and only if 0-cycling is one of your goals
Break Effect/Attack
Firefly’s main scaling stat is Break Effect, as most of her damage is Break DMG. She also converts ATK into BE, which makes ATK% very close to BE for her scaling per percentage. Since BE sources often give out more than ATK% sources, BE is still the higher priority.
There is a breakpoint of 360% BE for her personal Super Break DMG, and that should be attained by all means, which should not be difficult with proper support and heavy BE investment. Attaining more BE by all means is how Firefly does her damage.
Critical
No.
Her multipliers and several other benefits towards building Crit have been completely destroyed with Beta v3. Crit stats are completely wasted on Firefly.

Light Cones

Whereabouts Should Dreams Rest, her signature LC, is the best option as with every DPS in the game. Break Effect is uncommon in Destruction LCs, and this gives a big chunk of it together with a debuff that helps Firefly deal Super Break DMG.
Its importance for her seems to be about average when compared to other DPSes’ signature options for themselves - she is not as signature-reliant as Blade or Acheron. Aeon, mentioned below, is a great F2P replacement.
On the Fall of an Aeon, the Herta Store LC, gives Firefly a huge chunk of ATK%, which gets converted into more BE. It also has very high base ATK to increase the value of other sources of ATK%. This should be your default F2P choice.
Indelible Promise is her best 4* option, giving a good amount of Break Effect, the stat she wants the most. It does need a high Superimposition to be great, which is something inaccessible to most players.
Flames Afar, mentioned here due to the frequent talk about it pre-beta, is not a good option for Firefly despite Sam being in it. Firefly needs BE or ATK% for her damage scaling, and Flames Afar offers neither of them, so its effect is useless on her.
Other Light Cones are inferior and not recommended.

Relics and Planars

Iron Cavalry Against Scourge, a set being introduced together with Firefly’s release in 2.3, is her undisputed best option. Break/Super Break DMG is the majority of Firefly’s damage profile, and the significant DEF ignore is one of the biggest sources of damage increase you can have.
2-Pc/2-Pc Set combos are a great option for Firefly. With 3 sets that give BE to mix and match between, you can pick the combinations with the best BE substats you can find. Iron Cavalry’s improvement is sizable, but the performance of 2-Pc/2-Pc sets is still high enough for re-farming to not be necessary.
Genius of Brilliant Stars, aka Quantum set, is also a solid option. It also features DEF ignore stacking that works on Break DMG, but will provide less of it in most situations and also has a worse 2-Pc effect. Just as above, if you’ve saved up Quantum pieces with high Break Effect, they’ll serve you well.
Longevous Disciple, mentioned here due to the frequent talk about it pre-beta, has several issues with uptime and not giving Firefly one of her two scaling stats, so its effect is useless on her.
Other set options are not recommended, as they’ll be outdone by 2-Pc/2-Pc builds.
Planar Sets:
Forge of the Kalpagni Lantern and Talia: Kingdom of Banditry both give massives amount of Break Effect to contribute to your main damage and are almost identical in benefit. Both of their conditions are automatically met in enhanced state.
All other options are worse. Typically, the gap between Planar sets for characters is quite small, but the Break sets offer a lot of that stat, and since it’s unlikely to have good BE pieces saved up in other sets, it’s recommended to farm either Forge or Talia.

Team Building - Amplifiers

Harmony Trailblazer - Firefly and Harmony Trailblazer’s kits seem to have been practically made for each other. HTB’s biggest fault of only buffing Break Effect is fixed by Firefly’s kit converting it directly into damage scaling, while Firefly’s high innate BE and incredible break value on Enhanced Skill will help her deal extremely high Super Break DMG. These two should be together in teams at basically all times.
Differently from Boothill, who doesn’t use HTB in his most optimal teams, Firefly has more upfront break to access Super Break DMG quicker, especially with the help of Gallagher or Bronya, and can’t trigger default Break DMG by herself. In general, Break characters are highly recommended to stick together, both to amplify each other and to get Super Break DMG, so the other two currently in the game, Ruan Mei and Gallagher, go very well here.
Ruan Mei - A fantastic fit, almost every part of Ruan Mei’s kit greatly benefits Firefly. Weakness Break Efficiency helps her break enemies faster and improves Super Break DMG, RES PEN is a modifier that also works on Break damage, and the passive SPD and BE help Firefly get to her thresholds. An easy choice to put into any team.
Ruan Mei’s E1 will be a good improvement to these teams, with its DEF ignore stacking with Iron Cavalry’s set bonus for exponential growth.
Asta - Asta is a good budget option for Break teams when lacking 5* Harmony units. Her ATK buff is directly converted into more BE for Firefly, and the high break value on her skill means she can deal significant Super Break DMG and help Firefly break enemies faster.
Asta’s speed buff can give Firefly’s enhanced state a fourth turn with no speed investment, but it can only be ready for the first one in specific conditions - an E6 Asta with Meshing Cogs, an ERR rope and using technique instead of Firefly’s. Because of that, it’s recommended to still run Speed boots on Firefly.
Asta is recommended to build towards Break Effect in her substats as she doesn’t have high stat requirements elsewhere.
Hanya - Hanya’s benefits are very similar to Asta’s, but Asta is a free character with upsides to Hanya. Use Hanya as a budget option if you just don’t like Asta.
Bronya - Bronya works incredibly well with Firefly. More actions in Enhanced State have very high value, and Bronya gives more than any other support. With E0 Firefly’s SP consumption, though, those teams need to finish fights incredibly quickly before they run dry of SP. When Firefly is E1, Bronya becomes a better option.
The required speed tuning for optimization is pending with v3 changes, but is likely to be very demanding on Bronya’s side.
Silver Wolf/Pela - Both of these characters help stack DEF reduction, which affects Super Break DMG. The damage increase from this is solid, and they can be considered budget options.
Robin - Almost none of Robin’s benefits work with Firefly, as her ATK buff does not contribute to Firefly’s ATK > BE conversion. With that in mind, Robin ends up being close in performance to Asta as a teammate. Even if she’s E1, just use her on your other team.
Tingyun - Tingyun’s main appeal, the energy battery, is of low benefit to Firefly. Since Firefly’s Enhanced Skill generates no energy, Tingyun needs Huohuo to cut a turn of downtime. Her ATK buff is beaten out by Asta, and most other benefits are wasted.
Sparkle - Sparkle’s DMG% and crit buffing is entirely wasted on Firefly. Her Action Advance is extremely difficult to make use of with Firefly’s changing speed and will not give many enhanced actions.
Yukong - Yukong’s skill’s value is practically tossed out the window with Firefly’s self-action advance and speed buff. With her ATK% buff being unreliable and Yukong providing nothing else towards Firefly’s breakpoints, she’s not a good option at all.

Team Building - Sustains

Firefly is not very picky with sustains. Even still, there are some preferences. Her high SP consumption favors sustains that can generate high amounts of SP.
Gallagher - Gallagher is a perfect fit for Firefly. Generating insane amounts of SP due to his ultimate’s action advance and Multiplication, coupled with helping break Fire weak enemies which Firefly creates and increasing their Break DMG received, Gallagher can be considered the optimal sustain from a damage standpoint despite his 4* status.
E1 is an important breakpoint for Gallagher, letting him contribute massive amounts of Break before Firefly’s first action to let her break enemies quicker. Gallagher does this by using Skill to get to full energy on his first turn > Ultimate > Enhanced Basic.
Other Fast Abundances - This includes Natasha, Lynx, Bailu and Luocha. Having high speed on these helps make up for Firefly’s SP consumption to give your support units more freedom, and since the DPS is typically the weak link of the team survivability-wise, Firefly’s innate tankiness helps mitigate the weaker healing provided by Natasha, Lynx and Bailu. Multiplication is recommended, but if it feels too unsafe, feel free to use a more healing-oriented LC.
Aventurine - Firefly does not have any reservations against being played with a shielder. Her self-action advance happens infrequently enough that it shouldn’t lead to Aventurine’s shields falling off, and with Firefly being tankier than most DPS, Aventurine’s need to use skill decreases even more, making him a very safe sustain option that also provides good SP.
Huohuo - Huohuo’s SP consumption is a poor fit for Firefly, the ATK buff from her ultimate lasts too little to be worth much, and the energy battery is useless for Firefly herself unless you waste another slot on Tingyun. Huohuo is still a strong character against any CC-heavy fights and smooths out most supports’ rotations, though.
Fu Xuan - Fu Xuan’s low SP generation is an issue when being ran with Firefly, but if that’s accounted for with your other support choices, Fu Xuan functions moderately well - she’ll still be as safe as she is with anyone, but her Crit buff will not benefit Firefly at all.

# Eidolons

As with most other characters, E3 and E5 are minor numerical upgrades that don’t change the kit’s workings. Their pictures are linked for your appreciation, though.
E1 - In Reddened Chrysalis, I Once Rest): DEF ignore is the rare modifier to apply to Break DMG, making it a solid damage increase. The Enhanced Skill not consuming SP moves Firefly’s average SP consumption from around -1.4 SP/t to -0.55 SP/t, which is quite significant in giving more team options as well.
E2 - From Shattered Sky, I Free Fall: The newest busted, whale-bait eidolon. Adding functionally two turns to ultimate state is a hilariously powerful effect, and it’s very easy to make use of it - your Blast attacks will often break main targets and kill adds quickly.
This eidolon is undoubtedly broken, but same as with Acheron’s and Imbibitor Lunae’s, it is not required for Firefly to be a strong character by any stretch of the imagination. Do not feel forced to go for it if you can’t afford it.
E4 - Upon Lighted Firefly, I Soon Gaze: A token effect that is typically covered by your sustain unit. Never worth stopping at.
E6 - In Finalized Morrow, I Full Bloom: RES PEN and Weakness Break Efficiency will both greatly help with your Super Break DMG.
A strong eidolon by itself, but considering its cost is functionally quadrupled due to the minor benefits of E3-E5, the benefit-cost ratio is very low, and if your goal is to increase Firefly’s performance the most you can, early upgrades to supports will be of bigger benefit to her than aiming for E6.

Q: Don’t Ruan Mei and Harmony Trailblazer have anti-synergy with Firefly, since they delay their Break recovery, so you can’t Break them again?
A: With a well-built team, not at all. Even without these delays, enemies will die before being broken twice almost unconditionally. In that case, it’s better to extend the benefits you get from attacking broken enemies, so these delays are a strict upside.
Q: E1, Signature LC, literally anything else OR Ruan Mei?
A: Ruan Mei, and it’s not close. The benefit she provides to Firefly’s damage is unmatched, and she can be considered an essential teammate to maximize Firefly’s damage.
Q: Signature LC or E1?
A: Both are decently close in performance. I’d give the edge to Signature for most players, freeing up your Aeon for use with other Destruction characters.
Q: Does Crit or DMG% affect Break damage?
A: No. The only Relic stat that increases Break damage is Break Effect. The only buffs/debuffs that do are Break Effect increases, DEF reduction/ignore, RES PEN, and Damage Taken increases.

2024.05.21 21:02 Nearby-Sorbet-2876 Hair that is constantly breaking off and getting fairy knots, despite not having split ends and not being dry?

So, box braids are the only style that’s truly help me retain length. The issue is every time I wear box braids, knotless braids, or faux locs. It always destroys my edges. No matter how long I have it in my hair. I’ve worked really hard to cultivate a routine for myself. At first, I was struggling with hair that was perpetually dry no matter what I did. I solved that. I have a routine that makes me very happy. The issue is, no matter what style I choose, it always causes my hair to break.
Ironic part is I feel like when my hair was dry I had less takedown breakage but more breakage when I was detangling in the shower. But now, I have less breakage while detangling because I use a leave in conditioner, and more breakage when I’m taking down my hairstyles.
I recently tried mini twist and I love it. The only issue is the takedown process. I feel like I lose all the length that I gain. because my issue isn’t growth it’s length attention.
Ironic part is I see a few split ends, but I don’t see a ton. My l main issue right now is fairy knots as well as two hair strands knotting together and then I have to cut it.
Which is an issue that recently occurred as I started to fix my moisture issue with my hair. At first, I couldn’t go a week without washing my hair, but I felt like the frequent washing was added to the breakage. So I worked really hard to cultivate my routine and now I wash my hair every three weeks. Without any itchiness and dryness. However, I feel like when I fix one issue I have another one. And I don’t know what to do.
______________________________________________________________________
I have 4C Hair
_____________________________________________________________________
My routine consists of:
I take it out whatever style is in my hair and I take it out using my leave in conditioner.
After I do that, I wash my hair and I condition it. Because I wash my hair every three weeks, I deep conditioner every time I wash it.
Then, I take more leave in conditioner and use it to section off my hair.
Then, I oil my scalp and bring it along my hair strands, (hair growth oil that I made - it’s what regrew my edges after knot less braids completely destroyed them.)
Then, I take hair grease to seal it, and use the grease to style my hair. ( recently did four chunky braids)
Then I take a separate hair grease and put it on my scalp.

OPAL FLICKER

Artist’s description:
soft boy. has done nothing wrong, ever.
Son of Apple Jack and Autumn Blaze.
Flick was raised as a farmer, but farming never truly sat right with him. He loved helping others, and he knew he could be doing more to help. That’s why when he came of age, he moved out and applied to be a professor at the school of friendship for the kindness element, surprisingly. But of course, he was accepted.
Opal Flicker is kind too most, but closest to Ambrosia (his sister), Goji Glow, Onyx Daze, Elytron, Vespa Sear, Aurora, Hornet, Lockheed, Virago, and Bulaa.
Flick is scared of Amity, and like 80% sure Pyre hates him
https://derpibooru.org/images/3245106?q=parents%3Aautumnjack
AMBROSIA

Daughter of Apple Jack and Autumn Blaze.
Though still in school, Ambrosia is keen to helping her mothers farm, and most underestimate her strength. When she’s not on the farm or studying, she’s with friends and family, she usually drags them on hikes with her.
While Ambrosia does have walls, if she trusts you they’ll go down quickly. She can usually be seen hanging around Opal Flicker (her brother), Saccharin (her cousin), Fuji Tart (her cousin), Elytron, and Terabyte.
She argues frequently with Pacific Rose (her cousin). And she thinks Prince Usiku doesn’t take himself or his duties seriously.

Pazazz Apple

“Darlin’, please don’t cry. I’m sure Cameo didn’t mean to break Potsy.”
“Ma, people are staring…”
“You ignore them. She’s grieving.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Living on a farm with around 14 ponies means that accidents can happen a bit more often than not. This time, Potsy was the victim.
I 100% think that even after regaining her voice and the voices of her fellow villagers, Autumn Blaze still kept her inanimate object friends around. After all, no one’s going to be completely sane after dealing with what she went through. So one day, when Potsy is knocked from his spot on a bale of hay and smashes on the ground, Autumn Blaze is devastated. She wails and sobs, unable to do anything but cry and apologize to Potsy’s broken pieces. Applejack, who can’t bear to see her wife so upset, is very sympathetic towards her and the inanimate object. Pazazz, on the other hand, feels bad because he’s embarrassed of his mother’s odd behavior.

2024.05.21 20:20 OIndianCancercare Signs Of Throat Cancer

Signs Of Throat Cancer
https://preview.redd.it/qbtipu09nt1d1.jpg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5e90a050d3478b656809371b68f7ee0e9a2c4888
Usually individuals who suffer from throat cancer develop cancer in their voice box called larynx and face problems like sore throat, swelling of the neck, and difficulty swallowing. Possibly, the sufferer may note these indications of throat cancer in the beginning, but they might get to know it when the cancer gets more advanced and they face issues with breathing or speaking. However, throat cancer symptoms may differ based on their location in your body, and if the cancerous tumors grow within the voice box, they can make you ineligible to speak. These conditions require an immediate diagnosis, and you must visit a medical expert quickly!
Common Causes
However, the exact cause of throat cancer is not known, but due to the reasons mentioned, an individual might develop this illness:
  • Can develop due to genetic changes in the cells of your throat.
  • Consuming a lot of alcohol and tobacco-based products can possibly let you develop tumors.
  • Getting human papillomavirus infection.
  • Individuals exposed to chemicals like sulfuric acid, mist nickel, etc. in the workplace are at greater risk.
Throat Cancer Signs/Symptoms
Here’s a list of some common signs that a person may face when developing throat cancer:
Voice Changes: If your voice is becominghoarse or husky or you are facing difficulty pronouncing certain sounds or words, then there might be a possibility that you are developing cancer in your larynx.
Difficulty or Pain in Swallowing: The most initial sign that you might come across would be difficulty swallowing, as you might experience burning or pain when chewing and swallowing food.
Chronic Sore Throat: Known as an early warning sign, where cancer can occur in the pharynx, causing pain in your throat, which doesn’t disappear when you swallow.
Weight loss: An unusual weight loss may occur as a common cancer symptom which can be exacerbated by swallowing problems.
Swollen Lymph Nodes Around the Neck: Swollen nodes or enlarged lymph glands around the neck can be a sign your body is developing a cancer illness, especially if it grows slowly.
Other Signs
  • trouble moving your tongue
  • white patches around tongue or mouth lining
  • coughing up blood
  • nosebleeds
  • pain in throat
Stages of Throat Cancer
Throat cancer staging can form an essential part done by your doctor to identify the stage of cancer and to analyze how far the cancer has grown and spread. Usually, these are the stages that your doctor will diagnose:
Stage 0: Denoted by the term carcinoma in situ where the throat will develop cancerous cells.
Stage I: Referred to as an early stage of cancer where the cancer is only two centimeters, limited to the throat.
Stage II: This stage forms where thetumor is usually between two-four centimeters, but yet not spread to the lymph nodes.
Stage III: Here, your throat cancer comes larger than four centimeters, or even spread to nearby lymph nodes.
Stage IV: During this, the cancer is no longer confined to the original site as it might spread to other body areas including your neck, trachea or jaw.

Throat Cancer Diagnosis

Usually the specialists follow the below mentioned methods to diagnose the throat cancer:
Physical Examination: Most initially when you see a doctor, they will usually examine your mouth, throat and neck to find any throat cancer symptom.
Larynx Endoscopy: To look for abnormalities of the throat, the doctors use an endoscope and insert it through the nose to analyze the illness.
Biopsy: The doctors do this to determine if there are cancerous cells present by taking a small sample of cells or tissue to examine using a magnifying glass.
Ultrasound: Ultrasound of the neck is utilized to detect any abnormalities present, which can subsequently be verified using CT or MRI scans.
X-rays: The doctors may opt for chest x-ray to determine the sufferer’s general health and to analyze the spread of lung cancer.
CT Scan: A radiological procedure is performed to confirm and pinpoint the presence of disease or cancer in the neck region, while also assessing any potential lymph nodes. This involves creating detailed cross-sectional images of the targeted structure from various angles.
MRI: Using radio waves and magnets, the test produces detailed images about what’s going on inside your body.
PET scan: The doctors usually inject radioactive material into the body to detect cancer cells. Treatment Options
Mentioned below are the treatment options that the experts suggest:
The order of treatment for throat cancer is especially if it’s involving voice box or adjacent structures is chemotherapy plus radiotherapy . This approach has evolved from the surgery first approach which was used few decades ago but with the principle of organ preservation and to preserve the voice of the patient .
Surgery: Your medical expert will suggest surgery depending upon the location of the cancer and the structures involved ,if erosion of the cartilages seen in the scan then surgery is the choice of treatment The surgery involves laryngectomy plus partial phryngectomy and also reconstruction of the pharynx which connects to the food pipe . However, surgery involves excision of the voice box and loss of voice but with recent development of voice prosthesis ,voice can be generated.
Laser Surgery: Another treatment option, usually opted by the medical experts in the very initial stages if the disease is limited only to the voice box that too partially .
Radiation Therapy: You may get advised by the doctor to undergo radiation therapy which is the primary treatment in some cases as these doses target the cancer cells to eliminate them.
Chemotherapy: To treat certain cancer conditions, chemotherapy may be needed, especially if the tumor is large, or if the cancer has spread into the lymph nodes as this surgery can shrink tumors possibly.
Targeted Therapy: Since this type of treatment reduces the risk of side effects, these drugs target specific cancer cells or proteins that affect the growth of cancer.
Immunotherapy: This new approach boosts the ability of the immune system to protect the body from cancer.
Prevention
  • Avoid consuming tobacco products and say no to smoking.
  • You can prevent this illness by limiting alcohol consumption.

Can develop due to genetic changes in the cells of your throat. Consuming a lot of alcohol and tobacco-based products can possibly let you develop tumors. Getting human papillomavirus infection. Individuals exposed to chemicals like sulfuric acid, mist nickel, etc. in the workplace are at greater risk.

Other Signs
trouble moving your tongue white patches around tongue or mouth lining coughing up blood nosebleeds pain in throat
Stages of Throat Cancer
Throat cancer staging can form an essential part done by your doctor to identify the stage of cancer and to analyze how far the cancer has grown and spread. Usually, these are the stages that your doctor will diagnose:
Stage 0: Denoted by the term carcinoma in situ where the throat will develop cancerous cells.
Stage I: Referred to as an early stage of cancer where the cancer is only two centimeters, limited to the throat.
Stage II: This stage forms where thetumor is usually between two-four centimeters, but yet not spread to the lymph nodes.
Stage III: Here, your throat cancer comes larger than four centimeters, or even spread to nearby lymph nodes.
Stage IV: During this, the cancer is no longer confined to the original site as it might spread to other body areas including your neck, trachea or jaw.
Throat Cancer Diagnosis
Usually the specialists follow the below mentioned methods to diagnose the throat cancer:
Physical Examination: Most initially when you see a doctor, they will usually examine your mouth, throat and neck to find any throat cancer symptom.
Larynx Endoscopy: To look for abnormalities of the throat, the doctors use an endoscope and insert it through the nose to analyze the illness.
Biopsy: The doctors do this to determine if there are cancerous cells present by taking a small sample of cells or tissue to examine using a magnifying glass.
Ultrasound: Ultrasound of the neck is utilized to detect any abnormalities present, which can subsequently be verified using CT or MRI scans.
X-rays: The doctors may opt for chest x-ray to determine the sufferer’s general health and to analyze the spread of lung cancer.

2024.05.21 20:00 Aggravating_Cost6908 Doug Thorley headers for the 2.7 engine?

Doug Thorley headers for the 2.7 engine?
So, as many know. The 2tr-fe is kind of a shitty engine in terms of having usable power. I know a lot of you will say trade for a v6. I would, but it’s a long story so I’m gonna keep it simple and say the v6 is not an available option for me right now. What I have right now is an afe dry air flow filter and 31 inch A/T tires. Much wider than my old stock skinny tires which I thought would hinder my 0-60 time of 12.5 seconds but the new tires are surprisingly lighter and gives me better grip to the wider contact patch so my new 0-60 times is 12.1-12-3, depending if I turn on auto lsd or not but I want to get the truck to at least 10-11 second 0-60. At first I wanted to put a magnaflow muffler along with headers but I did some research that adding a magnaflow will remove back pressure, losing low end torque which could hinder my acceleration? So I was thinking of keeping the stock exhaust, add the Doug Thorley tri-y headers and maybe a pedal commander. I found that tri-y headers are good for low and mid range power which is what I’m looking for.
The other option is to supercharge the truck but the only one I found was the urd rotrex supercharger and it’s not California legal so that’s out of the question. Plus even if I pay a nice man to let me pass, the blow off valve will be loud which will be an issue if a cop is next to me. Does anyone have experience with headers on their 2.7? Ignore the V6 badge, my original tailgate was stolen.

2024.05.21 20:00 JoeHardway La Posta With Tha Mosta!

La Posta With Tha Mosta!
Images embedded!
Worked late in El Centro, last Fri nite, so an early start for Sat was outta tha question. Told Dina I'd let my back be my alarm clock (Whichit usually is, anyway!), n we'd throw'a dart at tha map, when I got up there.
With our late start, it waza 4gone conclusion that we wun't have time to do anything "serious", so I scanned the imagery, with an eye 2ward targets that we hadn't done yet, and that'd be relatively ez to get to. Lotsa options, if only 1'a tha criteria was used, but, bothof'em shortened tha list, significantly.
1 prob w/scannin the imagery, is that, it's ez to get sucked-in to perusin spots that don't meet tha criteria, but are conspicuous, nonethaless. And so, my eyes fell upon'a familiar slab of cracked granite, in East San Diego Cty...
This 1'd been on my radar for years, but I'd always intended to doit when I felt likit was prolly flowin really good. My focus'd been elsewhere, this season, n that time'd passed, but, this was tha day Tha Lord hath made, n we had to go "somewhere", so I started try'na rationalize why this 1 might still be worthalook...
"La Posta Falls" kinda get'sa raw deal, in terms of flow, cuz Thing Valley sucks up all tha water, lika sponge, n'it's gottabe pretty wet to have enuff left over to turn-on tha falls. I figured, even ifit might be abit past it's "prime", it'd prollybe flowin good enuff to justify tha trip, and, w/temps 4cast 2b low 70's/breezy, it seemed downright tolerable, so I decided tha mission waza "GO!", n out tha door we went...
No battle plan survives 1st contact w/the enemy, and our "1st contact" (Aside from tha Deer Fly that bitme, as soon as I got outta tha car!) was realizin that tha brush was significantly THICKER than it'd appeared on the imagery. Ain't nobody got time 4 that, so we probed abit further S, attempting to connect to an old rd that dropped-in to tha cyn. This too, was significantly less "roady" than it'd appeared on the imagery, and we were forced to cut our way thru, in afew sections.
Oncewe dropped-in to tha cyn, it waza pretty "light n breezy" hike, back to the mouth of tha slot. There were 3 distinct drainages, joinin forces, just around tha corner, and, if there was any water, this'd be where we'd find tha mostest. My "spidey senses" started tinglin, n I felt prettysure we were about to score, bigly...
The old jeep trail, headin back to tha narrows, is nearly gone, and the only tracks we saw, had been left by motorcycles, and were very faint. Kinda feels like 1'a those places that ppl usta frequent, BITD, but has since, been 4gotten...
Just as xpected, tha crk turned on, just as we rounded tha bend. But! When I glanced up tha cyn, my heart rose, and sank, just as quickly. Even w/tha naked eye, a fine ribbon of white, could clearly be seen, flowin down'a crack, in tha middle drainage, which was La Posta Crk proper. But! What could also be clearly seen, was that, this cyn waza quagmire of large boulders, w/equally large n cavernous cracks/voids, between'em. And, just 4 laughs, Mother Nature'd seen fit to fill most'a tha voids with thick brush, so as to create the illusion of solid ground. IF this'd been'a clear bedrock cyn, we could madit totha falls in 20min. But! This wern't that kinda movie, n'it was gonna take HOURS to cross this "minefield", which, owin to our late start, we din't have hours to commit to the effort.
We pushed up tha cyn abit, butit only confirmed my original assessment of the time/energy required to actually reach tha falls, so we decided to callit, at tha confluence w/tha 1st drainage. It was dry, but still had afew damp spots. We'd prolly only missed'it by acouple weeks.
La Posta Falls is interesting, due to tha fact that tha crk doesn't actually seem 2b takin tha "path of least" resistance. It appears thatit "should" be flowin along tha E Wall of tha cyn, butit seems tha cracks intha granite slab were too inviting, not to take advantage of, which means, at low flow, u can hardly even tell it'sa crk, as very little of the actual watercourse is visible.
We stuck'a pin in this 1, n might return, this wknd, n attempt to drop-in to the cyn above tha falls. Otherwise, it'll wait till tha time is right...
Almost...

This doughty Cottonwood prolly picked'a spot abit too high above tha waterline, butit's hangin in there...

2024.05.21 19:40 _Alpha_Mail_ A little photoshoot I did with Denim and Daisies

A little photoshoot I did with Denim and Daisies
Yes I did the cringey thing and added text to it lol. I was trying to pretend I was making an official promo for BBW because maybe one of their execs will hire me to be their photographer 👉👈 (yeah right)
I realize in retrospect how ugly the daisies are. This was at my local park so it's definitely not a studio quality place. I was so focused on trying to get the perfect image with people giving me weird looks and the toddler having a meltdown 30 feet away that I didn't really focus on finding a good patch of daisies. Perhaps I'll re-attempt this one
Since these were taken with a ✨️professional camera✨️ I can't upload all the images to Reddit because they're too big so here's the unedited ones if you're curious: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1IY6OIi7YtUGby_lY_ntssnRCOKu1MwUW
I plan on doing more photoshoots this summer 🤧

2024.05.21 19:26 LastingAlpaca How much visual snow is normal?

I am going to preface this message by an observation. I’m not usually posting or reading these subreddits because they tend to generate more anxiety than any kind of relief. I learned that the hard way when my chronic tinnitus (I know it is a symptom of VSS, I also have some hearing loss from being in the military) started a few years ago. I just want to say that if you have a new onset of something that is causing a lot of anxiety for you, spending any time reading on these online forums is only going to make it way worst for you. The sad reality is that there are no cure yet for these conditions, and acceptance is pretty much the only way forward, whether you like it or not. These chronic conditions are like a blackhole that will swallow you and everything that matters to you.
So, I have what I think is mild VSS. I am under the impression that I had it for a while, but that I just didn’t notice it until recently, when I had an onset of chronic dry eyes, change in prescription and presbyopia. This made me hyperfocus on my vision due to the anxiety, and this is when I started to notice some VSS symptoms. Was it always there and I never paid attention to it? It feels like I am gaslighting myself, doubting everything that I see.
I will notice visual snow in low light conditions or in certain lighting conditions. For instance, someone wearing dark clothing, from afar or under some lighting conditions, it will look like blueish static. If I am driving and I am looking at the floor on the passenger side, it will be mostly that blueish static. If I am walking into a poorly lit room, I have some static. I have floaters and they are bothering me to some level, but I am also at that age where it is normal for floaters to start appearing (have discussed this with colleagues and friends, they all have floaters). I have some mild palinopsia, mostly with black text on a white background. I also have some starburst around very bight lights or reflections, like LED headlights, streetlight or sun reflections. So overall, I am convinced I have some degree of VSS.
I don’t recognize myself in a lot of the visual snow “this is how you see / this is how we see” images. Like, if these images are a 10 out of a 10, I am maybe at 1 out or 10 in broad daylight and probably a 2-3 out of 10 in low light. I really feel sorry for anyone that experiences this at a 10/10 level.
So my question is, how much of visual snow is “normal”. How much starburst around lights is normal? For instance, I have discussed starbursts with my spouse, and she definitely see the same starbursts that I do, and she just considers that to be her normal. But I feel like this is not the way I have always seen. I never asked anyone about visual snow, because I am scared that maybe, just maybe, they have visual snow and they have never noticed it. Is everyone just at 0 out of 10 or is it just that people go about their day not noticing the static / starburst?

2024.05.21 19:18 prettytired25 Insane flares??? Help!

Hi y'all. I'm pretty much at my wits end.
I have a dermatologist appointment today but thought I'd ask around here anyway.
Backstory: I had eczema when I was really really young, honestly so young that the only thing I remembered of it was having a patch of it on my butt and my mom applying cream to it and then never really dealing with it ever again. She thought I had eczema on my face though it appeared as white patches and I vaguely remember this but for at least a decade or more I did not have eczema. My skin was perfect, genuinely so clear I didn't have to use much product on it.
Fast forward to November of 2019; I started taking hormonal birth control and noticed within a few months that I started getting eczema patches (also was having facial rashes but I thought this was due to trying out a new skincare) I went to the dermatologist who prescribed me Triamcinolone 0.1% ointment for my body rashes. I don't ever EVER remember using steroids much. I'd use it one to two days, and would stop when it starts to fade. Anyway my eczema was pretty lowkey in general and in 2021, we adopted a cat. I did notice my eczema worsening slightly ever since getting my cat but was managing with Triamcinolone (I think at this point my dermatologist prescribed me a tub of it I think December of 2021)
Again, I don't use steroid much and when I do I think it's really just for emergencies (my eczema was genuinely such a secondary aspect of my life I don't even remember much of how I managed it other than letting it ride and maybe applying steroid when needed). I remember the tub expired and I hadn't used even half of the ointment. I was also prescribed Mometasone and Fluoccionide? But I never used either of them as I didn't feel comfortable to.
In September of 2022, I caught COVID while overseas and it caused a pretty gnarly flare on the inner side of my elbows. Since I was overseas I just managed with moisturizing but I remember applying steroid when I came home. We adopted a second cat later this year.
Since then I think my eczema HAVE gotten worse, but there was a period of at least 6 months where I wasn't using steroid creams at all because I was either just dealing with it or it was barely there.
Fast forward to 2023.
I noticed a rash on the top of my right hand that I was initially managing with just moisturizing. But I remember having such intense itch on this rash that I kept itching, and at one point I itched with my shirt and it caused it to be infected. It was so gnarly, bright red, oozing, literally would not stop oozing, painful. I went back to my dermatologist 5 days later when I realized that oh this might be worse than just a regular eczema. She gave me Mupirocin and another tube of Triamcinolone (since my previous one expired) as well as a course of Doxycycline. I used the Mupirocin as directed for I think 10 days, and was not yet using Triamcinolone as I was worried about using it when it looked like there were still open wounds on it. I didn't finish my Doxy course because it was giving me horrible stomach pains. I came back to the dermatologist January 3rd and she told me it was OK to use Triamcinolone twice daily up to two weeks.
At this point I was already having eczema rash on my arms as well and some on my back but I don't think I was using Triamcinolone much on them (I'm pretty sporadic with using the steroid, I never really committed to the full 2 weeks)
Now, this is where things became a doozy.
January 5th: Caught strep, had difficulty breathing and had to go to urgent care. I was prescribed antibiotics, Prednisone (20mg, twice daily for 5 days), and Albuterol. I had asthma when I was younger and it's almost like it came back when I caught strep. My eczema was calm during this time and I thought it was because it rained a lot this week but now I realized it may be the Prednisone. Could not remember if I was using Triamcinolone as well on my hand during this time.
Sometime in early February: Went for a run and literally rolled my ankle so bad. Unrelated to everything else but my body sustained injury and looking back at old pictures I was starting to get patches of eczema on my legs.
Then I caught what felt like the flu in mid February and this is the first time my eczema flared to my face. My left eye was half swollen but at this time I thought it was from my sinus being blocked as it went away in a few days (though the rash stayed).
Early March: Got admitted to the hospital from Appendicitis. I spent 3 nights at the hospital and my eczema was literally non existent. No itchiness, just intense dryness but nothing else. I remember my friend noting my face was super dry but my rashes were slowly drying out. To be fair I was in so much pain the first day I was knocked out most the time from the pain medication they gave me and I was on a couple antibiotics due to the infection.
I came home from the hospital and this is when things start to really get insane. I got home, laid in bed, and immediately could not stop itching my neck and body. My face became swollen the next day but I was unable to take allergy meds because I was on antibiotics and had to wait for that course to be done. That eventually settled out.
I figured maybe I was having an allergic reaction to the cats (and thought maybe my mattress too, we had vacuumed it a few times and I suspected it disturbed the dust mites inside). I slept outside and on an air mattress for I think a few days, if not up to a week. The cats were still sleeping with me at this time and I was somewhat itchy but it wasn't the worst. Then I decided I was going to sleep in the bedroom again and this caused the worst flare I had ever ever EVER gone through. My face became so swollen, my left eye swollen again and it was oozing (this had NEVER happened to me before other than my infected hand) I don't know why this oozed since I never scratched my face, and my inner elbows, wrists and top of right hand got so red and puffy. At this point too my eczema on my right hand was starting to spread towards my palm. These areas also got pretty dry especially on my face. I called Teladoc Dermatology and they prescribed me Mupirocin for the oozing, Tacrolimus for the inflammation on my face and Triamcinolone for the body. He told me to apply Mupirocin first until the oozing calms, then stop and apply the other ointments.
At this point I had become SO SO SO terrified of TSW. It was all over my Tik Tok, my algorithm, I couldn't stop thinking and worrying about it and fearing that this flare is because I'm going through it. He told me to use Triamcinolone for twice daily for two weeks, then once daily for two weeks, then every other day for two weeks to help prevent rebound. I only used Triamcinolone twice daily for 5 days, then I did once daily for a few more days and by the time I saw my current dermatologist, I was using it every other day (I essentially tried to taper within the two weeks).
My current derma prescribed me Clobetasol and told me to mix 2oz of Clobetasol with 7.5oz of Vanicream or Cerave and smear myself in it once a day at night for one week, then once a day at night every other day for the second week. It was a very controlled instruction.
BUT I was SO afraid of TSW that I did not do this.
Instead, I took a one week break and I did 3 weeks of Triamcinolone, and even then I did it sporadically. I did about 10 days of once daily and then the second half I did twice daily. When I started doing twice daily was when I finally saw some improvements.
The problem is it has been a week since I last used any steroids and I have rebounded. Although my eczema rash genuinely looks so weird and I am having the dermatologist look at it properly today. My arms are constantly dry, my right hand (the problem spot since December) now have what looks like blisters on them and I never have eczema that look like this even though it's apparently common. The frustrating thing is that it feels like my eczema just keeps spreading. They are full body and it's freaking me out because it looks as if I have TSW even though I don't think I ever used steroids for that long at all, and I was only prescribed it back in 2020.
To be fair I thought I should've committed to the Clobetasol treatment because then we can see if the strongest steroid worked or not but I felt like I was going to flare again anyway and didn't want to use something really strong only for it to not work.
I had an allergy test done and I am allergic to both species of dust mites, dogs, cats, along with some other environmental things. I just don't understand why I am only now flaring uncontrollably like this. I am 95% covered in eczema. Either spots or just straight up long red rash. I am taking antihistamines daily and have been taking Probiotic pills pretty consistently (partly because I was on so many antibiotics back to back). I've been using Hyphocolorus Acid Spray as well.
On Sunday night, I tried to sleep over at my friend's place who did not have cats to test and see if my cats are my main trigger and I kept waking up itching myself, both my arms and legs and my chin and neck started oozing again. Which was INSANE as I did not itch either of them. The oozing on both have mostly stopped (I've only used Mupirocin and Vaseline to help control the infection and moisturize) but I just don't understand.
I'm scared, I have never had eczema become so severe so fast and I'm genuinely so scared. Something feels wrong but I don't know what it is. The way my eczema looks look like a combination of an allergic reaction and just a rash but I don't understand how I can have such an intense allergic reaction towards things I've been around all the time. We've lived in the same place since June of last year and the only thing I can think of is that we had the heater on almost daily in the winter and we found out end of April that our heater is incredibly dusty.
I'm getting my IUD removed next week as well as I'm confident birth control has something to do with my eczema coming back, and I plan to get allergy shots.
I'm just tired, it's consumed my life and it's causing me a lot of health anxiety. I look so genuinely terrible I can't even understand it.

2024.05.21 19:12 lobnag Frizz at roots for wavy/ straight hair

Hello!
Recently my hair has been getting very frizzy at the roots (to an embarrassing extent). I never use heat on my hair and my hair is generally not the dry type, i have a usually oiler scalp that needs to be shampooed od twice a week. I use l’Oreal Elvive shampoo and conditioner. Recently, J have also been experimenting with Olaplex no. 5 but I don’t see much of a change. Do you have any thoughts on how to tame this frizz down? I also tried the L’Oreal bond repair serum but my hair goes back to this state a few minutes after.
I am thinking about using a deep conditioner or oiling my scalp. Maybe sweet almond oil? But I have never used any of these products

2024.05.21 19:01 oneesama_ Soolantra/Ivermectin Cleared Seb Derm

Hi all.
I have been addicted to this Reddit since I was diagnosed with seb derm nearly 1 year ago. I would spend HOURS each week scouring the internet to find anything new I could try or what thing I should avoid to resolve my issues. I wanted to share my story with those out there who might be in a similar position I was in to offer guidance.
For a bit of back story/context - I had clear skin my entire life and never had any major issues aside from redness and occasional acne. I used a vitamin C serum a year and a half ago that destroyed my skin barrier. I tried everything possible to get my skin back to normal but nothing helped. I had white flakes from my temples to my mouth and my face constantly felt dry and tight. In areas around my nose and chin, I had small white sandpaper-like bumps that never went away. Before destroying my barrier, I had normal/oily skin that rarely needed moisturizer. I tried so many sensitive skin-safe moisturizers/serums but every single one broke me out or caused my face to become even more dry/flaky. I finally gave in after 8 months of struggling and went to a dermatologist who diagnosed me with seb derm. I was prescribed ketoconazole 2% shampoo, ketoconazole cream, and tacrolimus ointment. All of these things combined helped but it never fully went away. I still had flakes and dry patches all over my face. I kept reading about people who would say these products helped them and they only needed to use them during a "flare", but I never had flares, my skin was constantly irritated. After 2 months of little improvement my derm prescribed clotrimazole, but this did nothing for me. I went back to my dermatologist and was then diagnosed with perioral dermatitis and was prescribed metro cream. This, also, did absolutely nothing for me (I believe it was because I never actually had perioral derm). My last resort with my dermatologist was a 2-week course of doxycycline. After a few days, I still had the same tight/dry/flaky patches on my temples and mouth. After a week my skin was even more dry and I was experiencing the worst break out of my life. At this point, I cut every prescription ingredient out, started doing the bare minimum with my skin, and made an appointment with a different dermatologist. I threw out every product (which at this point, there wasn't much left) that touched my face/scalp that had any flagged ingredients on Sezia or included any SLS.
After doxycycline, I noticed my lash line was super itchy and I'd wake up with flakes on my eyelashes each morning. My skin was also breaking out every few weeks in painful, red, itchy bumps. My breakouts would be in places I never broke out and were very abnormal. Every time my skin would be clear for a week or 2, it would become irritated for the next week. I went to an allergist during this time to see if something I was eating/exposed to was causing my skin issues since I tried so many prescriptions without success. I mentioned the itchy eyelashes and abnormal skin problems and the allergist mentioned "could be Demodex" and didn't think anything else of it. I went down a Demodex rabbit hole after that appointment and learned about Soolantra/Ivermectin. My new dermatologist immediately prescribed Ivermectin 1% as soon as I explained my symptoms.
I'm on week 8 of 12 of Soolantra/Ivermectin. I've experienced minimal irritation or breakouts. My skin is the clearest it's been in nearly 2 years. I can finally put moisturizeproduct on my face and not break out. I can wear makeup without my skin looking like a flaky/patchy mess. I have no dryness/flakes. I am already so satisfied I can't wait to see where my skin ends up by the end of the 12 weeks. To anyone else who has tried so much or can't figure out why nothing works for them - consider asking your dermatologist about Demodex/Ivermectin.

2024.05.21 18:48 pseudofire_ Help! Water level 0.25-0.5 inches reached in basement laundry room for 5 minutes or so.

Hi, first time home buyer here and very unfamiliar with home improvement/renovating. Recently, we noticed our washing machine in the basement had a large puddle directly behind it. This likely was there for a month or so. The puddle had already damaged the baseboards and led to some cupping and warping (see images). I was going to let this be as is after some people told me it was fine and we just had to let it dry. We cleaned the puddle, tightened the water valve on the washing machine and were ready to continue on with our washing.
The next day, we tried to do another load to see if the valve was securely attached. We pulled the washing machine a few feet out out of it's original position the day prior, so I had the bright idea of leaving the drain hose in a nearby sink rather than the drain tube on the wall (I know, I clearly was not thinking straight). What do you know, the tube ended up coming out of the sink and draining all on the floor during the draining period of the wash. The water pressure from these drain hoses are quite high, it's like an actual outdoor hose. This led to about 0.25 to 0.5" (max) of water pooling up in a section of our laundry room and to the adjacent hallway and in some other rooms. My girlfriend heard the noise of the tube draining immediately and within 5-10 minutes, we had mopped up most of the water with towels. The water clearly pooled up near some walls and I fear it seeped underneath cracks between the flooring and the walls. Not to mention the puddle that already damaged the baseboard and wall directly behind the washing machine.
After the floor was mostly dried up, within a few hours, I ended up using a shop vac, some fans and a dehumidifier. They have been going on for several hours and even continuing on the next day. The floor is dry to the touch, but my concern is water seeping throughout the basement floor and into adjacent rooms/walls.
I legitimately have no idea if this is overblown or a serious concern. People in my circle, parents, girlfriend's parents think it's fine. They say we just need to let it dry with shop vac, dehumidifier and worst case we can remove the baseboard that's damaged, remove flooring in the damaged section (floating floors) and then call it a day. But I would be more comfortable taking as many preventive measures as possible to prevent moisture, mold and other damages in the long run. Some ideas I can think of are to remove the damaged baseboard, cut upon the bottom section of the wall near the damaged areas (maybe 6 to 10", it would be behind the washing machine anyway) and remove the damaged floorboards and see if there's water still underneath. I am also open to renting an industrial dehumidifier from a hardware store.
They also seem to agree that going through insurance is not worth it for this type of water damage/the amount of water that leaked.
TLDR; Can water stay trapped underneath the damaged floorboards and potentially move across the flooring to adjacent tiles? What other preventative measures can we take?
Thanks for any comments or suggestions.

2024.05.21 18:44 slidellian I had a traumatic event last weekend involving my child

Trigger warning: Near child loss, near drowning
Spoiler: We all survive
I'm going to share as much of this as I can just to get it out of my head, hopefully. This story is scary as hell for me, so if you are prone to triggers, I'd stop reading here.
Last weekend my two kids and I were at the beach. They are both teens. I was close by watching them when I noticed one of them looked like they were struggling in the waves. Luckily, I read about the signs of drowning on Reddit last week and as soon as I thought I saw what might look like a little bit like the first sign, I was on my way into the water. The rip current swept in and was taking my boys who were in less-than-knee-deep water, out into the gulf. I finally made it out to them and we were probably 150 feet off the beach. My older son made it back to shore, but my younger son and I were suddenly really struggling. The current was pulling us, and the waves were crashing on top of our heads one after another after another. We couldn't catch our breath. I starting yelling for help and someone got the lifeguard. My kid though... he was starting to panic. I was trying my best to keep calm and fight like hell, but the panic was hitting me, also. He started to sink under water a little bit and he was swallowing mouthfulls of salt water and that's when I thought we were both about to die. That was the end. Suddenly the lifeguard was there with his buoy and we were on the way back to shore. We wen't to the hospital to be checked for dry drowning and we're all fine several days later.
Here's what I can't shake... this one is my more sensitive kid. He's the one who will panic first, and I can't stop replaying the events in my head. I can't stop thinking about what happened, what I could have done bettedifferently, and I can't shake the image and sound of the horror he was experiencing. I was at the gym this morning and I was just standing there taking a break when I started thinking about it again, and suddenly I was out of breath while just standing still. I went to my car to have a good cry.
I've had anxiety most of my life and taken meds for it all my life, too. This is a whole new level that I don't know how to handle, though.

2024.05.21 18:35 kittenpasteco Pear Trees Being D***s (Cross-Posted)

Cross-posted from Arborists because it went fully ignored. Hopefully that's a good enough reason - can't learn anything without input.
Hi all, new here. I've been in the plant world since about 2011. Started getting into trees in 2019. I've got about 24 or so, now. The only trees giving me problems are my pear trees.
https://preview.redd.it/8uxdev2pqv0d1.jpg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=94e02aad7726784bc7b133d25a29edfbd140dd9d

Here are the detail photos of my 2 pears. The one in the ground, you can see a dark line. The nursery had pure mulch allllll the way up to that line. We're having lots of wind, today, so my shade structure got blown to pieces.

I bought a 5-way European graft, last year, that has yet to leaf out. I took it out of the ground, to replace it with the next tree, and noticed much of the root mass is gone (slugs, probably). It's now in a planter, with rooting hormone. Scratch tested and nothing is dead yet. It's in a planter of PNW Best container soil, earthshine biochar, some extra perlite (because rainy months), and topped with a bit of dried moss to protect the soil.
I also just bought a 4-way Asian pear graft, a week ago. Both were bare root, when buying. The Asian pear is now wilting (in ground). I've done all I can for it - shade cloth, light mulch, daily watering, light rooting hormone. The tree is receiving 30 minutes of an alternating sprayer watering, every two days (the summers here are cloudless and dry) and a 5 minute direct watering on the day between those. When planting the asian pear, I saw the thicker roots had been cut by the nursery and the fine roots were extremely short. I should note that the nursery gave it to me in a pot with soil but told me it was bare root and just transplanted in December. It's sitting in a mix of soil that came from the nursery, my native shitty sand (so it can get used to the surroundings), earthshine biochar mix, fox farms garden soil and compost. My root flare is visible, above the mulch (it has an interesting inverted U shape). He's the tallest tree, in the middle. Photo taken before wilting. New photos when I get home.
I've never had trouble with other bare root trees - I've bare rooted columnar apples and maples but, from what I've read, pears are finnicky. What can I do to rescue them?
I'm located in Kitsap County, WA. My trees are in full sun all day (which is why I've built a shade cloth around the asian pear).
I have a non-grafted pear, on the east side of my house, that's doing perfectly fine. He wasn't a bare root baby, though.
The pictured planting space is new, so it's not competing for nutrients yet, despite the tight proximity. The planting bed was put together a bit over a month ago - all of the pictured columnar apple trees were in planters from 2019 until then.

2024.05.21 18:25 Hopeful-Ad2305 CS2 SDK Compiling Issue

I started making maps in cs2 about 3 months ago, but suddenly ran into an issue when compiling maps. I already had a blockout of another map, but when compiling it just said Error: 3 compiled, 1 failed, 1 skipped. So I tried on a test map and it worked fine. Because i couldnt solve it on the old map, i just thought it is just a blockout and i can make another fairly quickly. So i made another and compiled it midway without problem. Then when i was finished it stopped working. So i made another one yet again. Compiling worked fine at first, but after a few small changes it stopped properly compiling yet again. Compile log is below.
