Great general use nerd forum to this day yep. Probably most of us have grey hair.
There's a local grocery store chain here that has the most bland tasting everything in their prepared food counter. You've never eaten such tasteless food in your life. Poor seasoning? Try none at all. Everything tastes like cardboard.
Want to simulate what it's like to eat food as a 30 year long habitual chain smoker, shop at Freson Bros.
Kellogg would cum his pants on the spot discovering such blandness could exist.
Their potato salad gave me depression. I didn't know you could make a calzone taste like the box it came in.
Sweet! Thanks for that.
He's one of the best comedians alive if you like cynical humor, dark humor, and disgust humor.
I think a majority would find him too offensive to watch and I love him for that.
idk but the Christianity...Abrahamic faith* missionaries in general don't help.
I don't think I've actually laughed out loud at a photo in awhile. Kudos.
Canada will follow the leader. It's in motion here too.
My go to is anything with Ammonium Lactate in it. 12% minimum.
Major is the brand I use currently. A 14 ounce bottle is around 13 dollars. A lot of others jacked up price during covid.
I'll just quote the important bit of the sales pitch: "ACTIVE INGREDIENTS: This skin smoothing lotion is specially formulated with 12% lactic acid and neutralized with ammonium hydroxide for a pH of 4.5 to 5.5. Lactic acid is an alpha hydroxy acid and a natural humectant for the skin."
There's good qualities to this brand and similar from my own experience with this active ingredient. And some bad.
Good:
1: I have Ichthyosis vulgaris kinda like eczema but much less severe with a shitty name. This stuff melts dander flakes and keeps more from being visible all day long until I shower or sleep. God send for me to keep up appearances.
2: The lactic acid creams are day long hydrating, but lets your skin breathe still. Not a big moisture barrier. Won't feel uncomfortable wearing it even slathered head to toe. Can cover face.
Bad:
1: The active ingredient increases skin UV absorption. Be mindful of that, you can burn more easily without sun screen.
2: Weak acid, so there's a burning feeling applying it. I'm used to this and don't feel the burn anymore unless it gets in my eyes or a wound.
An alternative is another I could recommend for dry skin havers: An extreme moisture capturer Dry Patch Body Butter by Dr Ebre. Do as the name implies, little problem spots. This stuff is intense. If you cover your whole face your sweat will get stuck to you and won't evaporate at all. Don't do that. 21 dollars for 8 ounce yes, but it clearly works. Lasts forever since you'll learn quickly to be conservative with its application.
Yeah that lack of transparency is a bummer. Might be worth private messaging some of the devs listed here to inquire.
