Here I am again, Hottie-obsessed and still salty about the discontinuation. I think about it at least once per day, and I'm hanging on to a little baggie of Hottie fragments for dear life. Yes, I'm neurodivergent and no, I won't find another scent I like just as much.

The Lush website is a nightmare to navigate, so I figured I'd ask all you lovely people. Is there anything Hottie scented yet? Last year, someone mentioned a Hottie enfleurage. But, it never came. I think maybe it just wasn't released in Canada!

Please give me good news 😭

I'm curious what the overall consensus is amongst priests. I recently read that the Synod had two (married but not according to Catholics) gay men speak. I am rather happy about it, but most Catholics I know aren't, to say the very least.

I'm a professor, so my work life is horribly hectic, and I don't always meet my fiber needs. I brought myself up to 40g per day last year and then back slid to a very low fiber diet. Now I'm on sabbatical, and I'm back up to about 40g per day most days.

One thing I've noticed is that I feel a sense of calm when I eat more fiber, almost like I've taken some sort of calming pill. I sleep better, too. I first noticed it when I became fixated on bean salads and ate them every night (before I started caring about fiber). Couldn't figure out why beans calmed me, lmao. Now I've realized it's any fiber heavy meal.

Is there any science-backed explanation for this? I don't use supplements and get all my fiber from grains, beans, seeds, vegetables, and fruit.

Just discovered this subreddit today. Hi!!!

I love olive oil, but I've pretty much always stuck to one brand, which is Kriti Gold.

I don't know much about how olive oil is produced. I assume it's all from green olives, but are there different kinds of oils from different types of green olives?

My favorite olive is castelvetrano for how buttery they are. I wonder if an olive oil made from them exists. If so, what would you recommend? Is it as rich as the olives?
