I miss being able to just see updates from my friends when going on Facebook instead of millions of suggested posts and ads

I get that exact same feeling from the eczema I get in my ears. Some steroid drops usually clear it right up

That’s interesting. I actually did something like this for the month or two before I quit fully. I just started to pay attention to the routine cigarettes and cut some of them out if I had had one recently. Then when I fully quit, I just said to myself “it’s cold outside and it’s warm in here” and that was that. I had one more after about 24hrs and that was the last one I ever had. It’s been over 4 years now

Me and my partner do this. We often eat vegan food but if we add a bit of cheese it doesn’t matter. We’ve still consumed way less meat and dairy than we would have a few years ago

I used brilliant for a while to see what it was like and tbh if you have the time to use it regularly and the money to spend, I thought it was worth it. I just don’t have the time to make it worthwhile right now.

I learnt a lot in a short space of time and it kept my attention well, which can be difficult given I have adhd.

I’m sure there are better, more in depth, apps or websites somewhere but I found the game like interface to be much better for me and much more interesting

I work in early years. Yes babies have a great understanding of body language and facial expression long before they can talk to communicate.

Young children are actually far more intelligent than most people give them credit for. Just because they can’t communicate it the same language as us yet doesn’t mean they don’t know what they’re doing.

If they didn’t understand body language, how would they bond with people? And people bond back with them? Not to be insulting, but it’s like with pets. We can build bonds with them because we learnt to understand each others body language even though we don’t speak the same language

I’m in the U.K. and most people use bleach to clean their toilet and that’s it

I agree, I’ve got a large dog and he can demolish cheap toys within hours but the good quality ones will last months

I have to disagree here. Some brands of mascara (especially the cheap ones but some of the expensive too) have chemicals in that are terrible for your health in the long term. It’s been a long time since I read the research but I remember that it caused local issues like cysts in/on the eye but also global issues like hormone imbalance

Edit: I found a recent link and it looks like there’s less company’s using them than when I first learnt of this. The health issues this article mentions are birth defects, thyroid issues and cancer. https://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/makeup-urban-decay-cancer-linked-forever-chemicals-b2261555.html

It’s actually incredibly common. Think about all the people who bite on the end of their pen or always have a drink (like a water bottle or coffee) to hand

Okay, I’m a bit concerned at this whole thing.

When I’m on then I shower once a day. I use femfresh to wash and then towel dry.

Why would I need anything else in between? Most disposable products need changing every 4hrs but that doesn’t mean throughly cleaning between uses. Reusables vary but again nothing needs deep cleaning under than 12hrs.

I feel like I’m misunderstanding the question?

College, my second year. The software they used flagged my work as something like 90% plagiarised. Thankfully the software showed the user it was saying it was plagiarised from… which was me from my first year lol. It was quickly sorted out and no lasting issue thankfully but when I first saw that percentage I freaked out
