Or perhaps a reciprocity between communities, where instead of everyone subscribing to c/mushroomA and c/mushroomB, the community of mushroomA would decide to reciprocate w c/mushroomB so their posts would display alongside mushroomA posts. Kind of like a keyword association that generates a multi-Reddit like co-mingling.

From the article

"Unbending players who choose not to be extorted can resist by refusing to fully cooperate. They also give up part of their own payoff, but the extortioner loses even more," said Chen, who is now an assistant professor at the Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications.

"Our work shows that when an extortioner is faced with an unbending player, their best response is to offer a fair split, thereby guaranteeing an equal payoff for both parties," she said. "In other words, fairness and cooperation can be cultivated and enforced by unbending players."

The same tactic is recommended when dealing with narcissists - ‘going grey’ and not offering anything. I will be adding this to my toolkit as I seek to resist ‘extortionists’ who seek more than their fair share.

Oat is so easy. And you can easily get organic, gluten free oats if that is important to you, plus you can make it when you need it - no store trip or disposable containers.

You just need a blender/food processor and a milk bag (you can get away with almost anything but the milk bag removes the most silt, if you only have a strainer w large holes, let the milk sit and pour off the top gently, it will leave the silt)

1. Add 2-3 cups of water and a pinch of salt to 1 cup quick oats. Immediately process it.
2. Gently strain it thru bag.
3. It keeps almost a week in fridge in a mason jar.

NB: some people add oil or vanilla or a couple cashews - I like it plain, if you want more excitement, you can find recipes where they use other stuff, or just have fun experimenting!

Also NB: the recipes I started with said that immediately processing and only gently straining will prevent any sliminess. I haven’t had that problem, so I don’t know if it’s because I do it that way or because I don’t have slimy oats?!?

Fantastic username!

Perhaps it’s just like proteins into amino acids - digestion just breaks it as far as necessary, not into the smallest pieces.

So the nucleotides are usable by our bodies, therefore no need to break down into further components.
