So now you tell me?

Magnesium is a laxative. I had to learn this from Tiktok.

Well, that explains the summer stomach of the last two months. Which, true, has kept me from drinking but has also kept me from the Ontario cherries. Ah well. Have bought the less laxative kind and trust that it, and cutting back on the dosage, will return me to normal before cherry season ends, and will not result in a return of leg cramps.

Speaking of cherries, a cherry picker was hovering over the quondem Starbuck's at Christie and Dupont which had been seriously tagged up and down after its last avatar, a Popeye's, closed in the winter. So the facade is being cleaned up finally but at the cost of an immense amount of grit in the air. Whatever the taggers used for their metre-high letters was heavy-duty indeed.

I tried magnesium a few years ago and even though I bought the liquid, which was supposed to be better, it had an immediate laxative effect. I think I tried a smaller dose with the same reaction and had to ditch the bottle as useless.
