Exactly. I use a blender (stirring never worked) with a squirt of water flavoring. The key part is the immediate chugging!

I had to start supplementing with psyllium fiber (powder) several months ago after a massive hemorrhoid attack last fall. (Surgeon gave me the identical advice.)

If I don’t get at least 40 g a day of total fiber (about 20+ of which are the powder), stools get large ‘n’ hard. It’s working, and my ass is thanking me.

What I’m having trouble squaring is I don’t think we evolved eating that much fiber every day. Pre-agriculture it would have been (depending on which part of the planet) lot’s of animal protein and whatever roots & berries you could find, right?

Many seem to have the attitude that if you never use them, the bulbs will never burn out. Problem solved.

Laugh, grimace, or down vote if you must, but I keep one handy and it works wonders. Clog-free in '23!

Exactly.

Huh. Had never heard of Infinity.

Roughly once a week. Whenever I’m close to running out of blueberries.

Just looked it up: 11 years.

I was very proud of “my” sub over there (sole active mod and most consistent poster). 11K+ subscribers and personally acknowledged by the author of a recent book on the subject of our sub.

Something died in me just before and during the blackout. I haven’t posted anything over there since, and of the 11K subscribers, it’s possible NONE of them followed my migration to the Fediverse where I set up an equivalent “official” sublemmy.

Once you know what you know (at least for some of us), it’s just not the same participating in that space any longer.

I keep an eye on the place out of respect to…something. (I feel like I cleaned the place up nicely, and really raised the level of discourse.)

I guess I was naive in the extreme to think that at least a couple of hundred of the faithful would follow me over here? I don’t do it for the numbers, but there is something gratifying watching your community grow.

At this writing, the new sub has double-digit followers! ;-P

Yeah, this is news to me as well…

People indeed hate change, and they’re fundamentally lazy. The easiest, most status quo thing you can do is nothing.

There’s over a hundred of them! News (NYT, WP, LA Times), Movies & TV, I have custom RSS feeds based on Google Alerts… BoingBoing, Gizmodo…on and on. I believe it’s an official Shit Ton of them…

Good point.

It’s obviously not a competition, but this kind of reminds me of back in the day when you had to choose between Betamax or VHS. One seemed superior (kBin)–but “everyone” was adopting VHS (Lemmy).

Geddit is another.

I’m old enough to actually get this reference. 👞

+1 for the heads-up about mlmym.org! 👍😎

Whoa, wait. WefWef (now “Voyager”) BUILT IN? How slick is that! (Voyager is one of my fav ways to lemmy…) 😎

Lemmy.film

The epitome of laziness. They had the strength to get it to this aisle–but somehow it’s just too exhausting to walk it back to where they got it.

Wait, subtract one: I’m on both .world and .ee
