How do you think Kramer would take advantage of legal marijuana in New York for one of his business ventures?
  • 100%. Definitely starts promoting everyone in the meeting too once they are all high.

  • Seeing a therapist for the first time, 30 years old.
  • I appreciate that perspective. They aren't bad habits, they are different habits... and they work better in certain scenarios too. Convert those mannerisms to superpowers I say.

  • Liquid Death - Part II, Severed Lime

    The Mango Chainsaw is better BUT I still really like the lime. It reminds me of a mojito - I love mojitos.

    • Flavor Taste 7.5
    • Flavor Intensity 5
    • Carbonation **Low, Subtle Notes of… lime, the agave, and I swear I can taste of hint of mint but I think my brain is playing tricks on me. In the end it's like a light flavoring of virgin mojito.

    Definitely getting this one again.

    Liquid Death - Part I, Mango Chainsaw

    I can't believe I didn't know about these flavors before.

    The Mango Chainsaw is pretty amazing, however, this seltzer has some sugars in it. This brings about the question: at what point can you call a drink a seltzer and at what point does it become a juice / soda type drink? A debate for another day maybe.

    • Flavor Taste 8
    • Flavor Intensity 5
    • Carbonation Low, Subtle
    • Notes of... it's slightly tangy, definitely tropical, kind of has a pineapple/mango almost hint of bubble gum flavor to it (reminds me a tad of Red Bull).

    Definitely will buy again and will be bringing this to group gatherings where people want you to look like the rest of the cool hipster beer drinkers.

    La Croix - LimonCello, does anyone actually like this one?

    It tastes like lemon pie. I don't like drinking pies. Who thought this one was a good idea?

    • Flavor Taste 3
    • Flavor Intensity 8
    • Notes of… key LEMON pie? Bizarre. I'm sure there are people who like these flavors - not for me.

    What is my next Seltzer purchase?

    Seriously, what should I buy in bulk and try? I have an indecision complex.

    P.S. get ready for me to trash your selections in reviews.

    Still trying to work out if I should bother a longer seasoning cycle to disappear those "milky spots" on the inner edge of the pan. But doesn't effect my cooking right now so I'm not worried about it.

    My grab-and-go bag contents
  • I don't mind the USB flashlights since I am always carrying around a back-up power bank with swappable USB cables in both my car and my bag.

    I'll have to check out the silicon diffusor I never thought of using one on any flashlight.. I'm sure there are some that work on any flashlight (sized to fit or not).

  • General Sports Discussion - MLB, NFL, CFB, NBA, NHL, MLS
  • Yeah I definitely think it could work if it's done the right way There are some much needed functionalities that Lemmy has yet to offer that will make it easier to stand up instances like this (easier customization, better cross-posting, better admin/mod tools, and clearer documentation). But the idea is great and it could work with some patience and hard work across various different players in the lemmy game.

  • General Sports Discussion - MLB, NFL, CFB, NBA, NHL, MLS
  • Great idea! Will be checking it out soon. A few communities I am moderating on lemmy.world are:

    Would be interested to see how crossover might work between instances.

  • Ah! But then you need a dedicated hat. 😆 Definitely an additional +1 to any kit.

    Also, what's this second flashlight with a silicone diffusor? Got a model/name for it?

  • Had my first migraine since creating the community

    This is an attempt to figure out what caused it. It is also an example of how it's pretty difficult to figure out what actually causes a migraine from day to day.

    Slept from 12 to 9:30AM. Breakfast was French Toast and Eggs. Skipped Coffee. Went swimming out in the sun for about an hour (had sunscreen on). First started feeling a headache and getting dizzy and progressed into a migraine - 11:30AM. Had pizza and root beer for lunch. Took a midday nap for about an hour at 12:30PM. Woke up with throbbing migraine. Took Aleve. Drank 1000ml of water (not that that helps really). Drank a cup of coffee. Migraine went away at about 2PM.

    If I take Aleve quickly enough I can usually stop a migraine within an hour or two. If I take it too late then the Aleve does nothing and the migraine can sometimes last until the next day.

    Why does this timeline matter? It matters because it's an example of how anything could have caused the migraine especially when there are so many confounding factors at play.

    1. Woke up later than usual.
    2. Didn't drink my normal coffee in the morning, withdrawal/craving?
    3. Out in the sun too long?
    4. I had sunscreen on, sensitivity to the sunscreen chemicals?
    5. Didn't eat enough for breakfast + craving more substantial food, needing to eat lunch earlier?
    6. Something else entirely not listed here?

    Sometimes you just can't figure it out - you just gotta take the meds quickly and move on.

    Seeing a therapist for the first time, 30 years old.
  • Yeah I don't know if I could handle the crash and other side-effects. I already have so many other health things I am trying to manage and understand I feel like this would be another wrench thrown into the proverbial machine.

    I did get a chance to meet with the therapist and she immediately was like "you have ADHD". All it took was mentioning my unending fidgeting and constant need to rush things and she already knew where it was going. I wonder if a therapist has the ability to administer any tests even if they aren't for the purpose of medication - more as a clinical confirmation of diagnosis I guess?

    Thanks for your ADHD story btw!

  • La Croix - Lime, tastes great with pizza on a summer day

    I drank 4 of these today. They hit the spot. But they are nowhere near as good as Polar's Ginger Lime Mule flavor.

    • Flavor Taste 8.5
    • Flavor Intensity 6
    • Notes of… lime. Are you surprised?

    I will keep posting pictures of random seltzer I drink even if it drives everyone out of this community. 😆

    My grab-and-go bag contents
  • I started adding an additional headlamp flashlight to my bags - in an emergency I may need my hands available. Has been the better choice when there's something I need to fix or work on at night.

  • Cotton candy seltzer?
  • I unfortunately don't have a Kroger near me. But Polar sells a flavor called Unicron Kisses that has a slight Cotton Candy flavor. I'll have to try and get my hands on the Kroger one at some point.

  • Polar has a suggestion box - let the VIP dream come alive

    I'm not kidding around - this better become a reality.

    Now it's your turn to add to the wave of suggestions they are about to get: Polar Seltzer Suggestion Box

  • If I could add you myself I would. I'll check back in a couple days to remind you. Every vote for seltzer counts.

  • What is your favorite brand of seltzer water and why is it Polar?
  • Fucking yep. Used to live next to the Polar HQ in Worcester, MA. It was like a slice of heaven. There were entire aisles dedicated to just Polar seltzer flavors. Those were the days.

  • La Croix - Pamplemousse
  • Where the heck did you find Ginger La Croix - I want it. One of my favorite seltzers is Polar Ginger Lime Mule, legit.

    La Croix - Pamplemousse

    My favorite La Croix flavor at the moment. Enjoying one while setting up some Lemmy communities.

    • Flavor Taste 9.5
    • Flavor Intensity 6
    • Notes of... fucking Pamplemousse, basically Grapefruit. This isn't wine tasting.

    What apps do y’all use?
  • I tried to use Habitica but it always felt over-complicated, due to shoehorning each set of habits into the gaming format, for simple tracking software. If you can get over the extra upkeep I'm sure it's both fun and worth it.

  • Futurama Sleepers
  • Not me but my wife. If she is having trouble falling asleep I always remind her to play Futurama on her phone then she is out like a light in ~10 minutes.

  • *Permanently Deleted*
  • I think from a business perspective a third-party app is still competition only in the sense that they are pulling away "numbers" from their own app, views, analytics, marketers. Even if they aren't direct competition it's something that they are competing against in a different sense. But your point is still correct - these apps are participating and aiding in a beneficial way even if it can't be quantified by their financial / marketing / product departments.

  • YSK Leaving Items in a Cart Can Trigger Discounts
  • Yep, and sometimes it can be triggered by "intending" to leave the site either by navigating away from the cart or moving your cursor towards the tab's "X" button - you don't always have to close out of the tab.

    What apps do y’all use?
  • I use an app called Awesome Habits which is on the phone and on the desktop. It helps me remember all of the little things I need to do in a single day, week, month that I know will cause me to panic if I try to remember them on my own. All I have to do is look at the app a couple times during the day to make sure I am on top of things - I think I am tracking 30 different habits currently.

  • Notifications or log of votes on posts / comments
  • True, the log/activity view is probably more feasible.

  • Notifications or log of votes on posts / comments

    Is there a way to review any votes / downvotes you get across all Lemmy posts and comments? Additionally, it would be cool if users could opt-in to getting notifications for up/down votes on content.

    Migraine localization chart, which affects you?

    It gives me a headache just looking at this chart. If it's close to true then that means I typically get migraines, cluster headaches, and sinus headaches depending on many environmental factors changing.
