  • I feel ya. I was diagnosed with IBD (ulcerative colitis) 3 years ago and never really had any issues. This year I’ve been in hospital twice and have learnt that it can cause lactose intolerance to develop and that there’s overlap with IBS so there are foods which can give me explosive diarrhea. 3 years I wasn’t overly cautious and now I’ll be making sure I check ingredient lists and understand them and actually learn what foods are triggers. Likewise I wasn’t told about lactose intolerance or the IBS overlap.












  • If copyright law is involved then you’re looking at 70 years after the author’s death or 95 years depending on which expires first for it to be public domain and only the original iteration is released into the public domain. That’s for the USA and different countries have different laws and I’d imagine that would complicate things massively as an online library would have to be compliant with various laws of different countries

    So take Mickey Mouse for example he’s now in the public domain but only in his original form in the Steamboat Willie cartoon, anything that uses something more recent than that like his red shorts for example would be taken down.


  • Yep. I’ve IBD and i can’t ear onions, garlic or even veggies in general unless they’re boiled really soft as they fuck with my gut but I can eat a donut ok and would be encouraged to because of the sugar in it. Most people wouldn’t tell me to not avoid veggies unless really soft as most people think fruit and veggies are great as they’re healthy but the the care team I have which includes a consultant and a nurse who specialize in my disease have to me nope.
