Just learned there’s such a thing as ‘internal’ shingles, where it does its thing closer to the nerves. Fuck

Just the rash was bad enough when I had it. It’s not something you forget, the sensation of one side of your body constantly being zapped as though by electricity

Joined! Love jazz. Been trying to learn jazz guitar for the last 10 years. In phases, granted. This time around I’ve stopped caring about scales and have embraced voice leading and chromaticity. Finally starting to get it, I think. Also, there’s this amazing channel on YT: things i learned from barry harris

Plane tickets have been getting more expensive. Recent (EU?) legislation places an extra tax on short-haul flights that would be 2h or less by train. The days of 30 EUR Ryanair flights seem to be a thing of the past. And the Epstein War has driven up prices for the foreseeable future.

Still cheaper to fly in most cases though.

Anyway, I’ve never been able to make up my mind about the right way forward. Make flying punishingly expensive so as to force travelers toward already expensive, but environmentally better alternatives? Or coordinate to reduce train ticket prices, e.g. through a system of subsidies? The latter is probably a lot harder to realize

It all started with that damn gorilla

Holy shit, I wasn’t expecting it to be word for word the same. Wow…

Points for honesty… I guess?

And they’ve got an entire diagnostics team working on a single patient multiple days in a row, breaking into their house, running lab tests, and doing basically every single task a hospital has an entire staff for.

Would love to see the hospital bill

You forgot Quora. That site used to be semi-useful. These days I can never tell whether I’m reading an actual answer to the question or just some random recommended post that’s been shoved in in between.
