I saw that also but I have my doubts that you'd get much iron intake from cooking in iron pans. People used to get lead poisoning from using lead pots and pans, so - maybe it's possible. I'm not sure how much iron frying pans, for example, are pure iron.
You can get all the iron you need from vegetables and certain meat or even taking supplements. There's no need to go about eating rusty metal. In fact, my doctor has advised me not to eat nails. I have to trust what he says, he's printed out several impressive medical degrees.
Huh. So there IS some reason to think cooking in iron pots will increase levels of iron in your blood. Interesting! I know metal can leach out of cooking vessels and into food, so that's not too surprising. Thanks for the information!
Hello everyone, I’m tired of having to go bavk to my search results 4 timesnbecause eveyrtime that I search for a news article every single website I get on won’t let mr read it without either subscribing/logging in, how can I hidethese websites from the results OR How do you guys look up news articles, an app or smt?...
That really fries my fritatas. I gave up trying to read news articles online because of this problem. You just want to read one article, but they expect you to pay for a freakin' subscription. Yeah I have all the money in the world to spend on subscriptions and I really want more email from sites I have no interest in the other 264 days of the year.
There always has to be the one guy, "Ummmmmmmmmmm I dunno what I want." Like there's other choices. I guess you could choose between a tusk or a gonad.
It’s not even receding, just looking like it, which has been the case my entire life, which makes me feel ugly and masculine, especially if people comment on it, because I otherwise look cute, but my endless wisdom requires too much forehead planes, I suppose. 😩
Hmmm. Looking like he-man or looking more like skeletor as I age - it's a tough choice. I once had a hairline, now it's almost at the back of my neck.
Of course I could do a serviceable job at slicking back what I have and looking like someone who hangs out under an opera house in a cape.
Boy howdy do I know that frustration all too well. I keep a lot of my spare pieces in a big jar and whenever I go looking for one I know I have - suddenly I don't have one like it at all. What the hell? Are aliens using my spare lego parts to build a painful new form of bumpy anal probe or something? I know I saw that piece in there just two days ago!!!!!
When I was an ordinary dumb kid, I took a bunch of cattails from a pond nearby and put them in my desk at school. Well - a couple days later, they decided to "bloom" and we had a desk inspection and when I opened my desk up, the room filled with big fluffy cotton spores. I got yelled at for a solid hour, I'd never seen my teacher so angry. And I'm like, what's the big deal?? It's free cotton candy and it's pretty!!
I cried during "Titanic." I can't believe I spent $7.50 on such a dumb movie. It was trying so hard to press people's buttons, plus I hated the idea that in order to like the female character, she had to "give up" her wealthy heritage and "descend" to the common man's level first, the same plot as the movie "Overboard." What is the message here - that having money is wrong and automatically makes you a bitch. What an ironic thing for hollywood people to be shoveling in our direction.
That's just horrible. And you're right, most people today have little empathy for anyone else. But it's terrible when you're own family is among those without the intelligence and innate goodness to care about you as a human being. Your sexuality is just a preference, not a definition of everything you are. I'm gay myself and was always bullied in school (long before I was gay or anything else) and have suffered my fair share of slings and arrows.
But I never ever felt bad about being gay - it's a gift and a blessing, and my family at least were supportive - or maybe just well-educated enough to know that someone's sexuality is not anyone else's business to worry over.
If you're tired all the time, that's one of the big red flags for major depression. And it sounds like you're doing everything to make it worse. Why seek out people who hate you - they're gonna be around no matter what. What you really need is to seek out people like you who are encouraging and supportive. And you need to god-damn well wake and stop being a jerk to yourself.
Sorry but it has to be said. You have to let yourself learn how to be happy. Being gay is not only NOT some kind of punishment, it is most definitely NOT anything to feel guilty about. In fact, I think of it as a superpower, and it is one reason I wake up smiling every day.
I haven't had the same setbacks you've had, but I've been through major bipolar episodes, (unrelated to sexuality), and I know how tough it can be to let those inner judges go, but you have to do it to improve your life. You have to fire those assholes and kick them out to the curb.
Sort of a vibrant or vivid melancholy, maybe? Some songs by certain groups do that to me also - that song, "remind me" by royksopp always brings on those feelings. I think that listening to music makes you feel like everything in your body is opening up a little, loosening and relaxing and decompressing.
I stand by what I said, I don't support any group using weapons against another group. Yes, it's quite natural for any group to defend themselves against an attack, but that doesn't excuse the immoral corruption of killing others, whatever the reason for it. That's my opinion, but I stand by it. And anyone who disagrees and wishes instead to dwell in a state of violence, is free to do so.
I disagree. Lead and sulfur will be the facsists weapon of choice and it already is. The real cure of fascim is intelligence. Educated people are humane people. Kindness is the hallmark of a well educated person.
Untrue, my friend, untrue! We didn't invest in their education infrastructure, we went in like America always does and blasted their brains out. You can live in your world of war and violence all you want - that's not the kind of world I want to live in.
I know you were being sarcastic, so was I. My proposed solution to fascists is not to become one myself. I can ensure myself and my family don't stoop to such levels of corruption, I can fight back if I have to, I can vote them out of office - but really what else can one person do without becoming a fascist themselves. I don't close my eyes to the world I live in - I'm an avid news reader and follower of all news networks and a constant contributor to the guest editorial section of my local paper. I do voice my views and spread whatever small influence I may have.
What I'm saying is in order to stop the future growth or rise of fascism, education is important. Letting kids read about the real history of oppression and violence is absolutely vital. I'm not delusional about the idea that the current fascists in office can be defeated with intellectualism - obviously that isn't going to work. Sometimes you do have to fight fire with fire. But I truly believe that in most instances, to have peace you have to prepare for peace, by nipping fascism in the bud through early education and open discussions.
I could have made that clearer in my original post. I was really talking about educating future generations - rather than trying to take down the current regime.
I support humane people everywhere. I do not support any group that uses weapons against any other group, no matter what. War mongering is only going to ensure more war mongering. What I truly support is people of greater intelligence reaching across the divide to start promoting peace and learning to live with each other.
Yeah there is that instant gratification - the IG factor you could call it. It's hard to resist! But I agree, people should have actual real hobbies, not just spend time trolling online. One of mine is writing, so replying to posts online helps sharpen my critical thinking in some ways. But I don't spend all day on it. I have so many other hobbies that truly are rewarding, and don't come with constant criticism and put downs from others.
Love it. It's true - imagine all the time we spend on these social media sites that we could use for better purposes. Writing books, drawing, setting things on fire. All the wasted potential!
Can licking an iron bar get you the daily recommended amount of iron?
How many licks would it take? Can the iron in bars even be processed by the body? Can you do this for other minerals?
