Why YSK: JADEing gives the abuser targets to hit and opens the door for more abuse--you can easily get sucked back into the void when vulnerable. If you can make a clean getaway by sending a text, leaving a note, or ghosting, you should do it. Do not expose yourself to any tricks they may have up…
If you suffer from lactose intolerance to anything dairy, just buy over the counter Lactase pills. Lactase is the enzyme that breaks down lactose in dairy products. Most adults stop being able to produce this in their bodies themselves as they age, which leads to the intolerance to dairy. These…
Why YSK: If you think you're being followed, your first instinct might be to run home and lock the doors. However, if your stalker does not know where you live, you almost never want to let them know that information. I was followed by two robbers who marked me as a target as I was almost…
Why YSK: I’ve just been reading this post [https://www.reddit.com/r/AskMen/comments/mjljw7/why_do_holes_attract_fellow_guys/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf] about digging holes on the beach and although it feels like I’m being Buzz Killington about what sounds like a lot of fun,…
Why YSK: So you don't get screwed on paying delivery fee's twice for the same item! I've done this a few times now. Ordered from a restaurant and they forgot an item. Sure the app will refund you the cost of the item...but I'm still hungry! I argued that if I have to re-order it they will hit me…
Why YSK: I've seen a lot of people who apparently don't know this who it would help, both on here and in real life, so I'm trying to signal boost this. The American Rescue Plan they passed in March wasn't just $1400 checks. If you lose your job, you can keep your health insurance through COBRA and…
Why YSK: Stop using Yelp altogether. It's bullshit. Yelp is absolutely the worst company I’ve ever experienced as a small business owner, avoid at all costs. They’re basically white collar bullies. Google here to fact-check my…
Why YSK: Turbotax tried to charge me $140 to tax from them and wanted me to pay them with my refund for an extra $40. I went to the website and signed in with my turbotax login and was able to file for free. I believe you must have made under a certain amount for this though
Why YSK: When something has gone wrong, you've made a mistake, or you find yourself in a conflict, or maybe looking at a scary upcoming problem, it is very easy to slip into degrading yourself. To tear into your intelligence, your morals, your willpower. And part of that is because, like how…
Many people know this already, but in case you don’t, I’ll shortly explain it: When a mosquito bites you, it injects some of its saliva under your skin. The saliva contains certain proteins that trigger your immune system, which will try to fight the proteins. To do that, it releases histamine.…
Why YSK: Many people, when in great states of depression, are self-destructive. They’re their own demise. They most likely need more help than say a normally depressed person. They don’t want to help themselves. They don’t want to eat. They don’t want to get up. Help them. It’s okay if they decline…
Why YSK: because there are a lot of misconceptions that affect introverted people and socially anxious people about this, and to help understand these two concepts. Introverted people simply prefer to be alone, but don't mind being around other people and socializing (maybe unless it's a very big…
Why YSK: Everything indexes your files and folders and INSTANTLY lists everything you have. If you type a search it will list all files and folders that match what you type. It even finds files that your Operating System doesn't want you to find. (oh look, I have two 3-Gigabyte files taking up…
Why YSK: I've seen a few posts stating that you need root or other complex modifications to remove apps and that's not entirely true. This post is not meant to tell you the benefits of using root/how to get it but rather how to remove apps and other bloatware off Android devices using ADB. In an…
Why YSK: Recycling used to be done by hand, and knowing the type of plastic helped sorters. Many states even required the "chasing arrows" triangle and still require it today. But now that it's largely done by machine, the symbol just confuses people, because it looks exactly like the recycling…
Why YSK: Many people (men especially) believe that the female orgasm is directly linked to penetration and that results in those people feeling broken or disappointed when said orgasm inevitably fails to occur from penetration and not much else. The notion that female orgasms must be brought on…
Why YSK: Because your privacy matters, and you should not have your every action tracked and traded for ad revenue by corporations. The reason why Google's products are "free" is because your data is their product, sold to advertisers. Read more…
Why YSK: Dental pain sucks, and this is a simple way to treat it without a ton of side effects and without getting a prescription for something heavy-duty. Many folks have both of these meds at home already. Obviously go see your dentist if you've got dental pain. The recommended dosage is 400mg…
Why YSK: when someone has serious trouble finding your house while delivering, you don't get your delivery! I recently delivered for a florist for several months, and visible numbers are a MASSIVE help. Espically for someone who's a bit socially awkward and doesn't like making phone calls to…
