Warning: Grapefruit can interact with drugs, such as decreasing the effectiveness of estradiol, making Oxycodone last longer, increasing blood levels when on Viagra, and much more.

Grapefruit inhibits multiple enzymes in the small intestine, most notably CYP3A4. CYP3A4 is involved in the breaking down of a lot of drugs, so when it's inhibited Oxycodone becomes inactive slower, and estradiol won't break down all the way into estrogen. Drugs that are affected by grapefruit will often have warnings on their packaging

Personally, I like putting just a little bit of salt on my grapefruit, to counteract the bitter flavor. Dumping sugar on it doesn't help. Grapefruits are about half as sour as lemons, since they have half the citric acid content.

Grapefruits were accidentally created as a cross between the sweet orange and the pomelo, in Barbados. Those fruits originate from Asia, but were brought to the Caribbean in the 17th century. Since it's parent fruits are native to Asia, it grows well in Asia too.

some-controversy and peekaboo (China and Vietnam) are the two largest producers of Grapefruits, producing collectively 6.3 million tons out of the 9.8 million tons of worldwide production.

The painting was made by Robert Papp, who has a website here: https://robertpapp.com/. I don't really know anything about the guy.

The lemon things with all of the recipes was really cool, but to be honest I just like grapefruit raw, cut in half and ate with a spoon.

CW Social DysphoriaFeeling incredibly dysphoric and isolated from the women in my life, today.

I feel like my transition has stagnated for a variety of reasons and I wish I could reach out to some of the cis girls in my life for advice on feminine things, but it's hard because I don't know what I don't know. And if I want to like, engage with them about "girl stuff", and don't even know where to start.

And I can't just be like "hi please talk to me about girl things" cuz then I'm the weirdo who doesn't even know what things to talk about.

And then I try to express this frustration to them, and I don't know if it really registers...

Like...idk! Just talk to me! Help me! Help me feel valued and included, rather then just a weird, annoying, pantomime of femininity!

depresso-posting

I wish "getting better" didn't have to hurt so much. I know rationally that having a decent amount of neutral days, and even very occasionally having a good day, is better than just feeling continuously like the lowest shit day after day after day after day. But at least when I'm constantly broken down I can get kind of numb to it, right now it's like I feel good just enough to not get used to feeling bad, just enough to be constantly hit with this soulcrushing whiplash. Built up just enough that I can break again.

I know it's all part of the process, like building a muscle, it gets torn and heals back stronger bit by bit by bit over time. Just wish that that could get from the part of my brain that knows things to the part of my brain that feels things, just wish that in the meantime I wasn't just some whiny little shit who feels bad about having good days, like what the fuck.

I can't understand how a cross between an orange and a pomelo could be so awful.

The people at that office are all cool but idk about having that in some database in case of a breach or it ending up in some broccoli headed doge subversives list or something but I hate being deadnamed by every appointment thing

Who the hell let me be this cute? Kinda fucked up if you ask me. Forcing everyone around me to have to be in the presense of my unholy levels of cuteness

spoilerWas in bed cuddling with my blankets, scrolling when some stupid nostalgia post came up. Now I'm (more) sad. The future sucks and I want to go back.

Also I should probably fill out this job application tonight. Depressing that nothihng has worked out for me in a while. Literally just nothing in the future. Had to explain to my friend that I stopped college and have no plans which was great. Why yes, I am just a burnout with nothing going on. Love telling people that.

Going to go play some video games or something and feel lonely. Need to figure out how to build relationships.

Got TCA cross done to my face today (they put acid on scars to melt/burn your skin and resurface it)

Basically it feels like I got a bunch of hot sauce on my face. Like, almost exactly.

lifehack: if your car's aux cable is loose, for peak cultural enrichment listen to ambient music to gain at least one minute of enjoyment before realising the music has stopped

I just started reading Tipping the Velvet and it's the most accurate description of having a crush I've read in my life so far ๐Ÿฅบ

weve been playing lots of voices of the void recently... very fun gaym :3 would recommend checking it out on itch (its freeeee)

unfortunately it runs UE4 doggirl-growl the worst

Grapefruit also amplifies the effect of many SSRIs such as Sertraline (Zoloft) & Citalopram (Lexapro) as it inhibits the drug being metabolised and removed from your bloodstream. Very important to avoid grapefruit if you use this class of antidepressants!

Redbook keeps showing me cute gel nails, like the colors the smoothness and all the designs you could make are mesmerizing with the use of a small UV light are inspiring me. I still got loads of regular polish, if I make the switch I don't think I'm going back
