I’m in the same boat. Had a surgery years ago where they tried giving me fentanyl, dilaudid, and tramadol at different points and they all just made me incredibly nauseous with no noticeable pain relief. I still remember the nurse in the PACU being really confused that my pain was still an 8/10 despite being on the max dose of tramadol.

    You’d be surprised. I saw people online arguing they should have just kept trying until she was dead, regardless of the suffering inflicted. A surprising number of people are 100% on board with the State literally torturing someone to death if they think it’s “deserved”.

    If he’s US based it’s very illegal. DDOSing can carry a prison sentence of up to 10 years. His hosting provider already took it down, and I’m pretty sure they’re obligated to report criminal activity on their networks, so this guy is probably fucked.

    Surprisingly wanton and wonton are completely unrelated. Wanton comes from middle english wantowen, which is the prefix wan- (meaning ‘not’) and towen (meaning ‘educated’). So it literally means ‘uneducated’ or ‘undisciplined’.

    Weird how often I see this take. Narcissism is really Narcissistic Personality Disorder, and it is possible for someone with NPD to recognize they have it and want to change. Not super common, but it is possible.
