Fucking old townie racists that insist on bringing up the old (replaced) racist mascot again and again, start threatening people who point out that it’s racist and they need to stop, and then threaten and deadname the high schoolers who chime in to tell them to knock it off.

When you are middle aged so its harder to tell if you are experiencing a medication effect, you are just out of shape so of course you can’t do easy semi mobile yardwork without sweating like you’re competing in Ironman, you are just feeling like a bitch, you look pale because you’re still recuperating from a procedure or maybe its also just stupid fun hormonal bullshit.
I had my older three kids relatively young so wasn’t going through this when they were teens/at home unlike a lot of my mom friends, I really can’t imagine dealing with that level of hormone clash on the daily.

If it’s not cancer treatment stealing away my energy, it’s chemo brain stealing my mind away from me. I’m good. I’m fine. I’m ok. But honestly, I want to be able to join an game again without feeling guilty that I’d be letting folk down if I just didn’t have the energy to play or GM. Hoping to get back to that some time this year. Maybe. Hopefully.

@mietze I feel this so hard while on cancer meds. I can only do 5 minutes at a time, but I have strawberries coming up!! And a few onions planted during “semi cold” season. And potatoes!!
It’s a start but not a finish by any means.

Can someone explain to me why 19-20yr olds think they are entitled to literally every single food item in the house?
-
@Cobalt If you want a serious answer, because of evolution. I honestly believe humans are wired so that the actions of children around the ages of 15-25 will piss off their parents, and likewise, their parent’s actions will piss them off, especially when they are living under the same roof.
During human evolution, this adaptation would have encouraged children to leave the house, spreading out the family’s genes and making it less likely for those genes to be wiped out by fire, viruses, predators, and the like.
-
@Sage The existence of multigenerational households in a huge number of cultures in the world, as well as the fact that they really dwindled in the United States during the rise of suburbia, strongly implies that this is a cultural trend and not an evolutionary one. Be very, very careful of assuming that what you see as the norm around you exists that way for purely biological reasons, the implications aren’t great.

The simpler answer is that food is energy, and energy is a necessity, especially for those whose brains are developing at an alarmingly speedy rate (which isn’t the same as saying it stops developing after this point; that’s not true). Modern food is also just really dang tasty, so it triggers the reward pathways in the brain more readily.
Add to this a diminished level of responsibility, since food acquisition is someone else’s job, and “take food, feel good” is the primary reason.

The realities of dealing with illness and a chronic condition are hitting pretty hard. Trying to keep my chin up, I’ve certainly navigated even more stress in my life but im pretty tired and airplane crud sucks and not even in a fun way. I am used to being able to power through just about anything. I feel pretty gross and annoyed to not be able to anymore.

Getting yelled at by a 7 year old just minutes after they woke up is apparently a huge trigger for me. Who knew?

Today I learned that they now make bras with, and I quote, “a built-in raised nipple detail for a perky, braless look that makes a bold statement.”
That’s right, folks! You can now look like you’re not wearing a bra while still enjoying all of the traditional expense and discomfort of… wearing a bra.
We live in the dumbest timeline.
-
@Aria wait what there’s a fake nipple in there or like a patch for your own? i could have FOUR nipples, in theory?!?
-
@Aria Go for the natural look! But not the ACTUAL natural look, no one wants that!
</sarcasm>
-
@mietze There is, in fact, a fake nipple built into the bra. Best of all, it’s in a kind of weird placement that doesn’t look quite right on any of the three different models, IMO.
For the low low price of $64, you too could have large artificial nipples in a highly visible but awkward spot!
-
@Aria Everything about this is deeply weird.

Look, I don’t make the fake nipple bra rules here, man. I just bring them to everyone else’s attention like the friend at the candle store who goes, “Ohmigod, this one is repulsive. Here, smell it!”

Now imagine for a moment someone is cold, they’re wearing this, and that’s not where their nipples are in their bra so now it looks like they have like a million nipples.

I feel like this might be good for women who have had double mastectomies and got fake breasts? But I don’t know why you’d want them poking out like that.
