There's a post about like being in the B plot of a sitcom and the only phrase I remember is "a bird is very here" but today I feel like I was a sitcom B plot Which is a long way to say I just got a new bottle of vitamin D3, opened it, and it smelled like rotting meat???? And when I called the company's customer service number to try to get a refund, there was pushback about me identifying the smell of rotten meat correctly*??? Up until the customer service representative said "each batch can have a distinctive scent based on the source, like when we use lanolin" and I said "lanolin is not listed anywhere on the ingredients of this product" and then I was suddenly good to get a refund So yeah anyone have any recommendations for good vitamin brands? I don't think I want to go back to the rotting meat secret lanolin D3 *with each new person I got passed along to I had to be more specific with my description of the smell to get them to understand I was not misidentifying it. Rotting meat is a very distinctive smell and I was VERY surprised to smell it from a bottle of supplements lol

i haven’t planked in months and i was worried that i would fall over within seconds so i used the lazytown theme song of all things to time myself. i planked for over a minute straight! maybe not much but i’m proud of it since my personal best is like 2 minutes. then i did 5 pushups and 10 sit-ups [my old daily routine] and was just as pleasantly surprised to see it wasn’t that bad! call me autistic but the lazytown binging is working on me. this is for you, sportacus 🫡

I'm on such a fucking weird diet. Literally have to cut back on the salad but more cake is fine.

this was literally the only question i was curious about, thanks for asking that for me paimon

like fontainain people married other nationalities yeah?? how did they have kids if they were oceanids.. anddd umm if they could fuck normal humans wouldn’t that make the oceanid in springvale falling in love with a boy from mond a bit problematic lol especially since it’s no longer a fairytale but an actual thing that happened and we witnessed it last patch??

so it’s not the case and new oceanids are just turned into humans but wait!! so celestia allows that?? it keeps constantly happening but they’re not stopping it.. ok sure but also

i wonder how many generations of fontaine people will it take for them to realize that they have to sexually mate to create children now

Something that no one told me about getting sick is that you don't build a tolerance to stressors. If you feel safe, you can essentially use exposure therapy. But you have to feel safe and prove you are safe until your body believes you.

Getting poked with needles? Feeling like your body is going cold from the inside? Being alone (no friends/family) in a medical facility for a few hours at a time? Even just trying not to shift your arm for a few hours... Your body will not trust that you're safe while this is happening.

When you're continuously putting yourself in a 'dangerous' situation without any attempt to prevent it in the future, you will develop fear and anxiety.

I wasn't ever afraid of needles before I had to get regular IV infusions. I still wouldn't say I'm scared. It's just that as my appointments get closer, when I think about it, I feel like I'm gonna start sobbing until I can't breathe anymore. I do my best to make myself feel okay. I bring a plushie, I request a warm blanket for the IV so it's not so cold, and I'm hoping to remember my headphones this time. But its genuinely so difficult. It's so important. It's keeping me from having to go to the ER. It's why I can walk. It's why I can work. I am so lucky that my provider agreed I need these infusions and set them up at the cancer center so I don't have to go to the ER anymore. But they're still contributing to my medical trauma and that's painful.

having a lot of thoughts about eating disorders + how some of us end up developing chronic illnesses directly because of the physical effects of our eating disorders and how Cruel doctors can be about that and just trying to untangle so much shame and blame from that experience rn

Went to the doctor just for a check up and he basically just told me "your body just processes sugar very well! :) :) :) It's a good thing! :) :) :) It can't possibly be the source of your symptoms even though eating fixes it :) :) :)" But there was also a moment when talking about my iron deficiency that is possibly one of the funniest things a doctor has ever said to me, up with the cardiologist who said "you're a medical mystery": He was going over my blood test results, and said "Your iron levels haven't gone up at all, they are still extremely low, but you're not anemic anymore" And I was like how am I not anemic anymore??? And he said "Your hemoglobin levels have gone up...somehow..." while frowning at the blood test results on his computer. It was very "somehow, palpatine has returned" lol

i think my minor obsession with nate has gotten out of hand bc at 05:14 last night i apparently wrote "nate as the designated vomiting caterpillar metaphor" in my notes app and the worst part is i know exactly what i was referring to and that i was deadly serious about it

[daz4i]
