Putting aside whether it's normal for you to be experiencing aging so early*, you should still see another PCP because they didn't manage your actual concern: "I am experiencing issues functioning day to day life, and would like a plan to manage this".
It would have been one thing if the doctor had said "yup, just you, so let's get you into an assisted living arrangement now", or "I'm fairly certain this is just your shitty genes, but to rule out anything else, let's send you for X tests and see the Y specialist".
From your post, it doesn't sound like that was the case.
*The joke goes that after thirty you don't get injured, you get permanent disabilities.
And that's only if your area has actual regulations on what free range even means.
For reference, here in Australia:
Under the law, eggs labelled as 'free range' must come from hens that are able to roam and forage outdoors for at least eight hours each day. The maximum outdoor stocking density for free range egg farming is 10,000 hens per hectare of land or one hen per square metre.
That is awful! I buy a brand that has 40 per hectare, they have portable sheds that gets rotated across the property, and the hens get guard dogs to protect them as they roam.
There are many things adults should and should not do in the early years of a child's life to set them up for success in the future... including not inoculating their mouths with decay causing bacteria (common pathway is testing food temp on a spoon, then using the same spoon in the baby's mouth).
Not sure how much it will bother you but I'm certain they'll be found on AliExpress and eBay.
Maybe even a dollar store, it seems the sort of thing they'd carry.
The original link I sent is an automotive store, the kind that sells oil and wipers and towball accessories. Maybe you have something like that near you?
I'm in healthcare, and often work with children. It doesn't matter if they do or don't understand something, they don't have the emotional regulation to continue with something uncomfortable.
I don't blame parents wanting to increase the sleepiness of a child prior to something like a long plane trip.
8+ is the age I see the majority of children being able to grin and bear it, and to be reasoned with.
I don't actually own any of their products but the bbq community generally speaks very highly of it. I figure whenever my current SV stick dies (not an ANOVA, it's a knockoff from Aldi lol), I need a backup so I've kept an eye on the market...
When you say you printed IEMs and ear protection, are you able to elaborate?
In my case I've only just gotten into FDM, and I'm having a lot more fun with it than my resin printer, but I might have made enough things for the resin printer that might make that a lot less of a chore.
So far, the FDM has been handy with quite a few functional prints around the house (certainly not yet enough that I can say it's cheaper than just buying the items outright, but we're getting close!), and that's been an enjoyable process.
True, but I travel out of the free tram zone and also see very few people tap on there too.
