My friends use bitwarden. We're on 1password. Both seem decent choices.

Lions Mane doesn't ship very well for commercial purposes. You might find it at markets... But you're best off growing it yourself.

Depends, some of us happen to belong to minorities that the conservative right are actively working to oppress, and that's not really something one can tolerate.

It'd be one thing if it was a disagreement about what colour to paint the new children's hospital.

But when they want ethnics in shit jobs for shit pay, queers dead, and AFAB barefoot and pregnant - they can fuck right off.

The lighting systems for Lego kits use teeny tiny LEDs and use very thin cables. Perhaps there are generic options available?

I just googled miniatures LED and some leads popped up for me.

Once you've spat out as much as possible, it's not a foaming mess, just a smear.

Many toothpastes don't foam either.

If you dislike not rinsing at all, my tip is to brush, rinse, then smear a very small amount of fresh toothpaste on.

Waterflossers are better than nothing. Best is floss to get the stuff wedged at the contact, then interdental brushes to get the stuff under the contact - these must be snug, otherwise you're not effectively using them.

Soft and small toothbrush, preferably an electric with a pressure sensor. The counter oscillating Crest/Oral B type is probably the most affordable. Don't need to get the top model. Some only time 2 minutes instead of 30s, so I'd recommend counting to 30 seconds (properly! Not rushing!) and do a quarter of your mouth at a time. Point at the gumline a little when you brush, approximately 45 degrees. You must push your lips and tongue out of the way. Do an extra minute after you're done with 2 minutes. Do this at least twice daily, consider a third time during the day, and you must not skip the one just before you sleep. Do not consume anything but water after this and prior to sleep. Do not get a midnight snack.

Use neutrafluor/prevident 5000 toothpaste, or clinpro 5000. Extra fluoride means extra protection from acid challenges. Use neutrafluor mouthwash if you must use a m/w during the day. Do not rinse the paste off your teeth.

Eliminate where possible from your diet anything sour, tart, or fizzy. That includes soda water and citrus and ACV. Eliminate where possible sweet things, including fruit - especially dried fruit.

Rinse with plain water after eating and drinking.

Common triggers of heartburn are foods that may be fried, fatty, and or spicy. Some people are triggered by dairy or lactose, or eating too late before lying down.

Treat your heartburn by prevention, not relievers. If you experience any symptom relating to heartburn, rinse thoroughly with plain water. Do this too if you vomit for any reason.

If you have dry mouth, try Xylimelts or the new range Freshmelts (this doesn't seem toxic to dogs). You can wear these during your sleep. Also treat the origin of your dry mouth.

...I'm sure I have other tips... But these are the most common ones I make to my patients.

Maybe from the other side?

Love how they claim limiting price gouging would have caused shortages... Why? How? What an unsupported claim.

I think you missed the point.

OP thinks their life isn't impacted by politics. Other users are telling them their whole life is controlled by politics, and installing a dictator can have significant flow on effects on day to day life. They've already said they aren't well off, so economic turmoil can mean their father has to exit retirement, amongst other possibilities.

That, and it's so very conservative to only care when something affects oneself directly... (The OP, that is)

Keep the Harley.

This is a common discussion for folks who have decided on a Honda Rebel, but can't decide 300, 500, or 1100. 300 is no or very low highway riding, it can do it but it's not enjoyable. 500 is for some highway riding, still a bit light and you can feel windswept, but good economy. 1100 much more planted and powerful and very capable of long trips, but a lot more expensive.

Any particular reason you want to change? If it's just to ride a different style of bike, is it in your finances to get a used mt03 to putt around in, then sell once you've had your fun?

This was definitely on our short list. Ended up going for an adv as the e-clutch models aren't in Australia yet.
