I’m groaning so hard while feeling really happy at the same time, it hurts. Thanks.

My problem has always been that I find breathing too boring to ever manage to focus on it for any length of time.

Where I live the dog shampoo costs more than the human shampoo.

Or you mean the conditioner?

Wait, I’m not “young people”? (37)

I don’t like it, haven’t really needed it, prefer public transport and have terrible motor skills.

I really enjoyed reading your story. It’s honest about your faults and kind to yourself at the same time. I hope I can find a way to see my own life in a similar way.

I get it, most of my life I’ve had episodes that are more like yours, and my brain just found this and it doesn’t want to let go for a reason. The first couple of months I thought it was the best escape, but once I realized I couldn’t stop, I’ve been despairing. I feel like I’m going mad but more quietly rather than explosively.

Daydreaming. I’m sick of it, but I keep going there.

I like that Cory Doctorow is pretty open about having been scammed despite being quite well informed, because it really can happen to anyone. It just takes the right convergence of factors.

Yes, the mitochondria and all the other organelles. We’re mostly egg.

And people forget that we’re also the egg.

I don’t see anything mentally unhealthy about what you do, sounds cool.

I was very confused until I realized you mean flat elastic bands which I’m not so familiar with (the ones I’m used to, have square cross sections).

Was it because of that other post about the two genders Fe (iron) and Mn (Manganese)?

You painted these yourself? They look so good! (I haven’t seen the originals).

Well it does say “4life”

I know someone named Pia. Never thought it was weird but we didn’t interact in Englis

I do, even if it’s a bot, because maybe it’s not. I have worked on 2nd+ line tech support, and I’d often see 1st line getting mistreated by customers. I could never do 1st line.

Really cool share, I love the song 23AndMe. I’m Latino not Filipino but much is relatable.

I haven’t!
