eh you'd have to read the rest of the comments. just a garden variety asshat.

I've gotten to the realization that modern medicine just isn't there yet. Pretty sure I've got some weird inflammatory thing. But even if I do get diagnosed with something, odds are there's going to be nothing I can do about it aside from trying to stay active, not eat things that aggravate it, and stop taking so much random medicine to be comfortable (most things I take more are associated with developing dementia). I don't have the energy to spend all that time getting diagnosed with something there's no real treatment for. So I'm doing my best with the lifestyle recommendations for my symptoms and hoping it takes me on my feet.

Nah I got fixed because it was actually legal and not completely abnormal to have done when I came of childbearing age.

mate selection, almost entirely. it's sensitive to body condition to the extent that if a woman sees the same hairdresser consistently enough they can somewhat reliably tell if she's gotten pregnant. it's also an easy indicator of social class and stability ie: do they have the time and resources to take care of it?

you didn't even have domestic internet you protozoa

• I recognize most of the characters from cloud Atlas even though he's changed the names

• the self insert character (I think it's the self insert) is insufferable. at least the one singular character Andy weir knows how to write is genuinely funny.

• oh wow yeah the distinctness of the British dialect is well evidenced here and probably a decent part of why I'm having difficulty following at times

• I usually enjoy surreal stream of consciousness more, but I suspect it just hasn't pulled together properly yet.

TLDR; I really enjoyed cloud Atlas and this was $1 at a used book sale but I'm only ~1/6 of the way through so I'll give it a little longer

ooooo I actually started relistening to the audio books for comfort and I guess the universe had a reason why!

I would think so. Blocking knitwear has been a thing just about as long as fiber art itself. As to how well it will work on synthetics specifically I couldn't tell you. Now all that said, you would have to allow the garment to fully dry on your body, and washing them would likely reset the fibers.

1970s ain't got shit to do with the 1990s you mf toddler

Oh yeah when I was young and had an active untreated personality disorder men loved it. It's like they want to be tortured. Tbf I also pass on a lot dumber bullshit more now that I've gotten treatment and chilled out a little. And I found a dude who's in almost the same exact boat with bipolar 1 to be stably unstable with. So the idiots really don't get a lot of chances with me anyway.

Well that kind of post / question is very much welcome here. My ideal for this space is a combination between genuine exploration of nontraditional (or traditionally heretical) spiritual beliefs and gentle ribbing of traditional / canonical and mainstream religions, particularly the Catholics and other militantly trinitarian or puritanical Christian offshoots. But genuinely exploring a geometric hallucination (or "vision" even), is VERY welcome here.

This was an episode of doctor who.
