Yeah I’ve given a footjob before. It was neither exciting nor disgusting to me but the dude loved it so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I already knew this about colors (it’s also why “redheads” have orange hair) but I recently dug more into how the musical spectrum and how tones are defined is very similar in it’s cultural variance. Another thing is how the cardinal directions are divided radially and how time is counted. Shit counting bases even, most of the imperial measurements are based on either base 12 or base 16 math.
Wild to think that something you grew up with as a fundamental fact of the world might actually be super culturally subjective.

It’s waaay safer than alcohol especially in smoked straight off the plant non GMO strength weed but yeah a processed 200-300mg strength edible can absolutely cause psychosis in the wrong person. I’ve had a looot of schiz spectrum patients who just can’t admit that weed or especially edibles are a problem for them and causing their psychosis keep winding up in the hospital.

Surprised they don’t do the consonant Hepatitises too. Maybe they do now if you’ve been out for a bit.

Oh hey that’s part of how I accidentally took 300mg as a first time dose. Pretty sure I saw god and it was pretty disappointed in me.

Or your favorite niche flavor of dorito in the corner store at 2am Sunday morning. This is what I mean when I say that while yes most ecological damage is caused by large corporations, there would still also have to be fundamental changes to a huge number of people’s everyday lives. Convenience culture would have to die and I don’t even know if I’m personally ready for that.

Oh no one of the threads most forms of Gnosticism gave in common is the idea that earth / corporeal existence is hell in the same way that the Buddha says all feeling is suffering. It’s like that bit in the good place where she realizes they’re actually in hell already.

- Comment on Why put data centers in space? 1 week ago:
I had been wondering lately if using the fossil fuels in space instead of on earth isn’t a viable option. It’s like a billion years of sunlight trapped inside the earth’s crust that’s all gotta go somewhere eventually anyway right? As long as it’s not fucking shit up in the atmosphere it could be a lot of use elsewhere maybe?

We have a lil backpack for our dog that I put snacks in when we go to the corner store and people always ask if she’s a service animal and I don’t really consider her one because
a) she is not well behaved enough, she panics in the wrong environment and tries to bolt (she’s 0% fight 100% flight and sometimes that’s actually fine like if you take her on the bus she hides under the seat the entire time which is what she needs to do anyway)
b) I don’t know that me being too lazy to carry my own candy bars really qualifies as a service dog task
So I kinda wanna get her this for the backpack but technically the backpack itself is her job so…
(Our family Halloween costume is filling the backpack with candy and hubs and I have shirts that say "emotional support human, do not pet).

this is giving me flashbacks to the IV simulator in nursing school. I had already been a phlebotomist by that point so I was just like yeah this feels nothing like a real vein. Did help me learn the order of the steps though. Like practicing pushing the catheter down the length of the needle one handed and all. Then I went straight into psychiatry where basically no unit allows even a disconnected IV without a 1:1 and have put in like 5 IVs total in the entire time I’ve been employed as a nurse which is still well over half my attempts but still.

Interestingly one of the few times I ever got pulled over was when I was on my way back from helping someone with yardwork and had my hair bundled up in a scarf so it didn’t get nasty. It was so weird the cop actually apologized for pulling me over.

Shame, it’s actually a really cool sub when you’re looking for it. There’s a MVA before and after that really shows off plastic surgery as a non-superficial specialty. Put the whole face back on. The whole face.

The best way I can describe drinking this entire thing as a colon prep for a procedure is that it’s like that bit in the sixth Harry Potter book where he has to force feed Dumbledore that basin of poison to get to the bottom (it’s been established that they’re not great books but I’m part of that generation) but you’re both Harry and Dumbledore both force feeding it to yourself while begging yourself not to do it all while lamenting the awful cruelty of Voldemort (your doctor).

Right like off the top of my head we’d literally be screening op for cancer like severe fatigue with sweats and relatively sudden onset a few years ago this is bad bad bad bad bad OP might already be dead.

Y’all are gonna feel like shit if it turns out she has some weird incurable cancer. Well. Sort of. She’s probably also terrible personally but y’all are being weird about the possible ED thing.

Yeah pretty much anything can fuck up your body if you do too much of it for too long in the wrong ways.
Weed can be behaviorally addictive even though it doesn’t cause the same kind of neurochemical dependence. Caffeine is just literally a stimulant narcotic and nobody talks about how insane it is that it and nicotine are just legal for some reason when a bunch of other stimulants that also cause heart problems aren’t. Running is great cardio but it can fuck up your knees if you run on the wrong surfaces and wear the wrong kind of footwear. Let your kid play the wrong video games and suddenly you have a 10y/o with a gambling addiction.
You gotta pay attention to all the shit you’re doing pretty much all of the time to catch whatever your ‘thing’ is gonna be before it damages your body permanently. It’s exhausting. That’s the main thing rich people have over poor people health wise. They get enough time off from both work and domestic responsibility to watch that kinda stuff and intervene with a different coping strategy when it’s getting out of hand. Sure not all of them take advantage of that but that’s a personal problem at least they have the time to do it if they want to.

I could have eaten one as a fifteen year old girl but I attribute that to my parents heavy encouragement of sports and lack of body shanking compared to other families.

I almost failed out of high school as a “gifted kid” so there were a bunch of meetings and one of the social workers tried to analyze the relationship between me and my mother and I was like yeah nah my sister beating us is waaay worse and that’s how I found out a different social worker when I was a kid threatened to remove the rest of us if my mother kept complaining about her so anyway the social worker at my highschool told us to just start calling the cops and coached my mother on what to say so they didn’t shoot anybody but would just come and take pictures and give us case numbers and eventually we were able to leverage that into group home placement.

Data entry was actually one of the best jobs they gave my intellectually disabled sister at goodwill. She graded donated books and punched their ISBNs into an online database for resale. They have some pretty awful disability employment practices in regards to pay but she was living with us anyway and it was the main thing she looked forward to during the week. Then she’d spend the money on going to the movies with a care aide on Friday. If she’d actually had to support herself on the money it would’ve been a mess but in her case it was more just something stimulating to keep her out of trouble. Then she started yelling racial slurs at everybody and got fired and was stuck home with nothing better to do than beat the shit out of the rest of us so all good things come to an end I guess.
- Comment on A Linux Version of Windows 11 2 weeks ago:
Everything everybody else said but also for a noob user, the window manager matters a lot. It’s the part of the OS that renders the graphical user interface (GUI - menus and title bars and everything). Some are super basic (and often very lightweight / snappy). But KDE (super SUPER configurable) has a button for EVERYTHING. And because it’s so configurable I almost guarantee someone’s made a configuration that mimics widows aesthetics and interface, and that might make things a little easier for you until you’re ready to dive in a little deeper. And KDE used to be way too intensive for most computers but most modern ones can run it easily.
