the “came back wrong” trope except like… they didnt. like this mad scientists wife died, and so he studied necromancy, brought her back, and she came back and it all worked. like she came back exactly the same as she was before with literally no difference. but the scientist guy is like “oh no… what have i done…. shes Different now!!!! she came back Wrong!!!!” and shes just like. chilling. reading a book. cooking dinner. shes just so so normal but in the guys mind hes like “oh shes soooo weird” but shes just normal
A shoujo story where you need to hide from (or kill) your generic bishounen senpai because you accidentally saw him in his man-eating monster state and the only way you can detect his presence is when you nosebleed when they have their eyes on you.
i’ve been super stressed and overworked lately so i’ve been craving a cigarette really badly but i quit years ago and i don’t really want to buy a whole pack when i know i’ll only smoke one or two of them anyway, so instead whenever i feel like i can’t take it anymore i just vividly imagine myself taking a smoke break in my head and the crazy thing is it actually makes me feel better. i feel like the 4chan burger tulpa guy.
using my psionic powers to give myself a tasty little treat without succumbing to the weakneses of the flesh
reddit is literally on the verge of exploding and dying come like july or august and i havent seen a single person talking about it on tungle.edu
It is? How?
im in the middle of eating a bunch of shitty popcorn chicken right now but the TL;DR of it all is that reddit is attempting to kill any and all 3rd party apps used to access reddit, presumably because they want to serve more advertisements to users and build better profiles to sell to advertising companies to make more money
people who arent reddit users probably arent aware of this but the official reddit app put out by reddit is a steaming pile of shit for various reasons (some actually legitimate like for accessibility reasons and some that are just quality of life issues) and a large portion of reddit users, as a result, use some other 3rd party app to access reddit– namely apps like apollo, reddit is fun, baconreader, narwhal, etc.
and reddit announced that their new API pricing will be $12,000 per 50 million requests. at roughly 7 billion requests per month, apollo would cost the developer 20 million dollars per year. for context, he said that he paid imgur $166/mo for the same 50 million requests.
you know how much we bitch about the tumblr app? imagine if it was hundreds of times worse, so somebody built and maintained a secondary tumblr app where you could use your tumblr but it actually worked so great and wonderful. and instead of trying to buy that app or hire the developer or whatever, they just made it literally impossible for the app to exist by charging the person running it $20 million a year instead.
the idea is for the subreddits to “close” on june 12th and “reopen” june 14th, but many of them are saying they are going to stay closed until reddit reverses the decision, or else stay closed indefinitely. but the damage is already done, frankly; reddit admins lost a LOT of the good will of their userbase, people are canceling reddit premium like crazy, people are deleting their accounts in protest, & i know i will be limiting my use of reddit in the future.
but if they dont reverse the decision, a huge section of reddit will just be… gone. inaccessible to anyone who wasnt already subscribed before the subreddit shut down, basically. huge swaths of information, gone, due to corporate greed. its pretty fucked.
idk who needs to hear this rn but suffering is not noble. take the tylenol
One time when I was younger I was refusing to take headache medicine and my mom said “the person who invented that medicine is probably so sad you won’t let them help you” and now every time I find myself denying medicine I just imagine the saddest scientist making those big wet eyes like “why won’t you let me help” and whoop then I take the medicine
scientist when you don’t take the medicine they developed to help your pain
As long as you are taking a SAFE dose of it, then it’s *good* for you. Pain is bad for the body. The inflammation from prolonged pain can worsen chronic issues and make it harder to heal.
Ibuprofen is best for pain that has inflammation, while acetaminophen doesn’t help with inflammation but is more broadly effective on other types of pain. As long as you are taking the recommended dose, you can even take them TOGETHER, since they have different mechanisms of action.
You do need to be aware of how much and how often you are taking any pain medication. Overdoses can be very painful (even lethal.) And if you are in chronic pain often enough that you need more than the safe dose, then you need to look into other medications to manage that pain.
(Also, if you are specifically taking Acetaminophen/Tylenol for your go-to pain management, getting some NAC and taking that with it reduces the risk of overdose AND may strengthen the effect.)
One other thing: NSAIDS (ibuprofen, aspirin, and naproxen being the three big ones) can cause digestive issues with chronic use, including stomach ulcers. That doesn’t mean “don’t take them,” it means “if you’re at the point where you’re on them all the time, every day, constantly, you should talk to a doctor about either reducing that risk or switching to another medication that doesn’t have those side effects.”
I wanna hire an evil advisor so bad. I want to pay some gay-coded little man to creep around my house saying ominous things and smirking to himself and punctuating every sentence with an evil little laugh while I pretend to be totally oblivious. And of course I ignore his evil advice, but I always have an excuse as to why, and he unconvincingly pretends to be
okay with it, but later that night I hear him
having an absolute meltdown in his room until he comes up with a new evil plan and bursts into a musical number that
ends with maniacal laughter which continues for about 10 minutes
