... if you think Google has not already scraped Drive for numerous reasons relating to data theft, including AI, to various degrees, just because 'oh dear no, they wouldn't do that because there might be proprietary information and that might end in lawsuits' and 'not to worry, the original post on the matter was debunked and retracted' then... honestly, why would you think that?
Do you think that just because no insider source has verified such a thing, it hasn't happened? Do you think that just because Google isn't openly admitting to it, they haven't done it, not even a little bit? Do you think that the threat of lawsuits for stealing personal and proprietary information is some kind of bulletproof safeguard against such a thing?
This Google Drive AI scraping bullshit actually makes me want to cry. My entire life is packed into Google Drive. All of my writing over the years, all of my academic documents, everything.
I’m just so overwhelmed with all the shit I’m going to have to move. I’m lucky to have Scrivener, but online data storage has been super important as I’ve had so many shitty computers, and the only reason I haven’t lost work is because Google Drive has been my backup storage unit.
My partner has recommended gitlab to move my files to - it seems useful, and I can try and explain more about what it is and how it works when I get more familiar with it. I’m unsure if it’s a text editor, or can work that way. He was explaining something about the version history that I don’t quite understand right now but might later. I’m just super overwhelmed and frustrated that this is the dystopia we live in right now.
#There Is NO Reason To Trust Google's Word On Anything#WHY Would They Be The First To Admit To Having Done Such Things?#Also - Do You Think That Crimes Of This Type Can't Have Been Committed Until A Court Of Law Has Determined That They Did?#Does That Make Sense To You Really?#'They Can't Have Done It Because We Don't Know For Sure That They've Done It'#Really?#Because Bodies With That Kind Of Power Are Typically Reticent To Commit Wrongdoing On The Basis 'We Might Get Found Out'#Bodies With That Kind Of Power Are Exactly The Type Who Commit Wrongdoing Motivated By Potential Profit DESPITE RISK OF BEING FOUND OUT#Do Any Of You Understand At ALL How Little A True Deterrent It Is To These Massive Players That 'They Might Get Sued'??#Have None Of You Been Following The Pathetic Results Of What Happens When Such Players ARE Sued And How Little It Matters To Them?#If ANYTHING The Fact That They Have Access To So Much Personal AND Proprietary Information Makes It HARDER To Get At Them#IF ANYTHING THE FACT THAT LOTS OF PEOPLE COULD SUE IS JUST INCENTIVE FOR GOOGLE TO USE THEIR MASSIVE FUCKING POWER TO KEEP THAT SHIT HIDDEN#NOT INCENTIVE FOR THEM NOT TO DO THE WRONG THING#Let Me Be Fucking Clear - If You Know That You Can Make Billions Upon Billions Doing WRONG#And That NO SUIT Is Likely To Result In Fines That Would Prove ENOUGH To Put You Out Of Business#And That You Have Access To Information That Would Make It EASY For You To Interfere In Legal Proceedings Against You Or PREVENT Them#Then What Is The Deterrent?#Especially If You AS AN INDIVIDUAL KNOW THAT THERE IS BASICALLY NO CHANCE YOU'D BE FOUND PERSONALLY LIABLE AND IMPRISONED

I keep hearing the argument "Meleys was a beloved dragon because she protected Westeros" which connects to this idea that dragons were used to repel foreign invaders and protect the Westerosi smallfolk. So let's unpack this and go through all the times dragons were used in battle and whether or not it was to the benefit of the smallfolk.
(+) are when dragons helped the smallfolk and protected their realm from invaders. Battles of disputed territories (e.g. the Stepstones) are not counted.
(—) are when dragons actively hurt the ruler's subjects.
(¤) is when there is a threat against the Realm that is resolved by a person who doesn't have a dragon when a dragon could have very well been used to help.
Caveats:
We will not count the harm not directly caused by a dragon (death by starvation, death by a dragonrider, battles that do not have dragons involved, etc.)
We will not count the harm caused to non-Westerosi people.
AEGON I
(+) Burning of Harrenhal (killed Harren the Black, freeing the Riverlands from the rule of a tyrant) [Balerion]
(—) Conquest of the Stormlands [Meraxes]
(—) The Field of Fire [Balerion, Vhagar, Meraxes]
(—) The First Dornish War [Balerion, Vhagar]
AENYS + MAEGOR
(¤) Second Dornish War [active dragons at time: Vhagar, Quicksilver]
(—) Squashing rebellions at the Eyrie [Balerion]
(—) Destruction of the Sept of Rememberance [Balerion]
JAEHAERYS I
(+) Third Dornish War [Vermithor]
(+) Fourth Dornish War [Vermithor, Vhagar, Caraxes]
(+) Myrish invasion of Tarth [Caraxes]
VISERYS I
(Only major military conflict is the War for the Stepstones. Caraxes is the only dragon involved and the only other dragon that could have been deployed (with an adult rider) is Meleys. In the show, Laenor is older and thus joins the war with Seasmoke.)
AEGON II + RHAENYRA
(—) Battle at Rook's Rest [Vhagar, Sunfyre, Meleys]
(—) Battle of Honeywine [Tessarion]
(—) Fall of King's Landing [Syrax, Caraxes, Vermithor, Silverwing, Sheepstealer, Seasmoke]
(—) Butcher's Ball [Vhagar]
(—) Sack of Bitterbridge [Tessarion]
(—) First battle of Tumbleton [Tessarion, Vermithor, Silverwing]
(—) Second battle of Tumbleton [Tessarion, Vermithor, Silverwing, Seasmoke]
(Battle of the God's Eye not counted cause technically it was just dragons hurting dragons.)
TAKE-AWAYS
It is possible that during Jaehaerys and Viserys's reigns that a dragon would become beloved of the smallfolk. That dragon, however, wouldn't be Meleys. It would either be Caraxes or Vermithor.
Dragons were more often used for royal progresses than they were for battle. Silverwing could have also been a beloved dragon given the progresses of Queen Alysanne.
The dragons with the most clout are Caraxes and Vermithor. The dragons on the top of the naughty list (prior The Dance) are Balerion and Vhagar.
Contrary to some claims going around, dragons are never canonically used against Ironborn raiders.
Meleys, Dreamfyre, and Silverwing are never deployed during Jaehaerys's and Viserys's reign despite having adult riders (probably because they didn't want to send women to battle even if they were dragonriders...which is weird given how this whole dynasty started with Visenya and Rhaenys.)
The Dance was arguably more destructive and bloody than Aegon's Conquest since a lot of dragon battles were avoided in the latter by people surrendering.
Overall, dragons have been more often destroyers rather than protectors. Jaehaerys was the only king who used his dragons to actively and deliberately protect his lands and subjects.

while aaravi remains firmly within "yeah miranda has a difficult personality and isn't very easy to get along with + has many rough edges which are slowly being worked on but still going to be an issue" after having been very much so within the camp that miranda is a Vexing Bitch upon first contact/getting to know her, she DOES go from "miranda is unpredictable and dangerous as a merfolk and large macropredator and her emotions are inscrutable and random" to "merfolk aren't very hard to understand or predict and it's very easy to stay on the safe side if you keep basic rules in mind and don't freak out the second something unexpected happens"
#all the care guide says is 'biomass'#miravi.txt#just. thinking about it!#thinking about specifically how merfolk (like most other animals) growl/hiss specifically as a deterrent#like if you start really upsetting miri and she wants space and you to Please Stop#she will probably turn her face away from the other person or turn her body away from them#while growling or hissing and pulling her fins back#and will open her mouth to bare her teeth or gape her mouth open to show her teeth (including heavily panting)#where the point is ''i will hurt you if you touch me/get closer/dont stop so please dont do that''#but a lot of people read it as her being either obtuse (if she turns away from them)#or outright aggressive for the showing of teeth and growling#when shes really not. shes being very polite in merfolk terms in giving multiple chances to avoid violence#shes going ''i am worried i might have to hurt you so please reconsider'' in a way thats very readable if youre another merfolk#who will then step away or give her her space and switch the tone of the conversation#to see whats wrong#whereas her being more deliberately aggressive/violent usually comes with minimal vocal cues at all#or (if shes specifically threatening someone such as in the case of getting aggressive over perceived threats to her social bonds)#she will often turn towards them and open her mouth and flare her fins#often deliberately closing the distance and making herself appear Extra Large#she WILL growl here but will never hiss (hissing being a more defensive sound)#and will often smack her tail against the ground or show her claws or otherwise demonstrate how large and how scary she is#as a deliberate point of ''you crossed a line and this is what is going to happen to you if you dont make it up right now''#which! both require VERY different responses but might look similar to a human!#and might end up coming off as unpredictable or random in her actions and cruelty!#when shes not! shes just doing things the way a merfolk does them#which means aaravi realizes VERY quickly after learning about all of this#just how many cues miranda gives that people are starting to make her uncomfortable and feel Not Okay#that are ignored or written off because theyre merfolk cues#merfolk are very tolerant of stress but have basically no concept of escalation of violence for that reason#because if youve ignored every chance to prevent something dangerous up until the point it goes too far

not to CR DiscourseTM but maybe some of us dropped campaign 3 because the one (1) POC at the table turned out to not be a permanent addition and we were really upset because we loved him in EXU and by that point we had already started paying for dropout (#SummerOfAabria) and d20 isn't perfect but we were finally seeing POC at the table, in the plural, and maybe we decided to not spend our time watching the table full of white people and their occasional guest of color
#idk ive been seeing some vagueposts and needed to Speak. i got into d20 at the same time campaign 3 started and comparing the 2...#im not gonna pretend that the cr fandom doesn't have misogyny however comma it's disingenuous to act like the all yt cast isn't a deterrent#especially for fans of color. especially when alternatives exist.#like idk. sorry mismag showed me what ive been missing and craving from every other Actual Play i tried before?#bidoof thinks#discourse#cr discourse#ooohh i wanna main tag this. i wanna pick a fight#critical role

Boxing is a fun way to relieve stress and make the thoughts you don't like into a physical thing you can literally punch.
#i've put the workout clothes closer to the punching bag#thus eliminating my major deterrent to boxing every day#hunting down the clothes and wrapping the hands and getting water and earbuds and the playlist#is too many steps sometimes#but one is gone now#could put the earbuds nearby too even#i will do this#punch the self-esteem until it's no longer in the negatives#what is self care when you're emotionally broken but flailing around and hoping something sticks

再谈JJK 236五条悟的心理刻画// I want to talk about Gojo's psychology in chapter 236 again
I'm quite happy to say that my thoughts on CH236 have evolved��even if I still greatly dislike many of its executions, pacing, logic, and other storytelling issues. Previously, one of the things that really pissed me off is the character derailment Gojo Satoru suffered in CH236.
I'd mentioned before that the idea of the afterlife dream sequence is massively appealing to me. It's just that there are so many little things in it that sounded wrong enough that in the end, I wondered if I was looking at Mahito's Idle Transfiguration at work. As one person familiar with the JP side of Twitter reportedly saw (take it with a reasonable grain of salt for there is no link to the tweet, but no big deal): "Gojo sensei didn't just die, it feels like his soul was killed as well."
However, unlike many detractors, my gripes were not centered on "Gojo dickriding Sukuna jobber mindset." I actually think the self-deprecation was perfectly valid for the human Satoru (my previous rant had more details on this). I thought it was humanizing to see him freely admitting his vulnerabilities.
I was more offended at his downplaying his achievements as though he never had a chance. I thought someone who was as enlightened as he is in judging a person's strengths and weaknesses should be better at assessing his own feats instead of sounding like my pathetic ass whenever I talk about myself. I know I have a rather abysmal self-esteem issue, but nothing in the story indicated Satoru as possessing that trait. That loss of measured self-assessment was one of the things that made me reel. But after reading some comments on this Reddit post, I've come to realize I forgot a very important piece of context:
This is Satoru after he lost.
Being the strongest was, by all the web of causes around him (his birth, the way people regard him, the things people keep pointing out about him, the system's assessment of him, etc.), a huge part of Satoru's sense of self. It did not necessarily matter if he himself truly believed "being the strongest" was all there was to him. See, even in the real world, there is no "true self" (yes, "there is no self" is one of my most steadfast scientific +/philosophical stances). There is, however, a social self; a person's sense of self is porous and dependent on the environment and society (which can break up into communities) they exist in, and it reflects back to the person who comes to accept it as their own personal narrative. Being the strongest was part of Satoru's fable; the world around him even decided that it was his raison d'être.
So when he lost, it dealt a really hard blow to his understanding of who he believed he was. It didn't matter if he was enlightened in his judgment of people. One of the statements everyone, including himself, had taken as a fact had just been completely disproven. Why wouldn't he then express doubt on the rest of the "I am the strongest" narrative? Why wouldn't he start to become skeptical of his strengths and feats, to the point of seeing the opponent who bested him as more powerful than Sukuna really was?
It's just another glimpse into his humanity. Who among us feels not a shred of self-doubt when we fail at what we believed we were good at?
In this light, it became easier for me to reappraise his expression of doubt.
--------
There was a part when he made it sound as though he was trying to reach out to Sukuna and shit "all along", seemingly at the expense of his students, colleagues and adopted son. Make no mistake, the omission of his students and the goals Satoru made as himself (instead of as "the strongest") in this afterlife dream thingy is still bad.
Reaching out to Sukuna, though? I don't think it's necessarily OOC.
See, Satoru shared many traits and inspirations from Shakyamuni, the historical Buddha. In line with those references, it's my interpretation that Satoru does not actually exhibit egoism—I know, it runs counter to the dominant understanding of Gojo's psychology in the JJK community—but self-less-ness.
Not selflessness as in "altruism", but anattā--one of the Buddha's realizations upon his awakening (and again, a concept I strongly support. My best friend can tell you how much I talk about this. Hell, my blog description says as much). The way I see it, Satoru's confidence in himself is no different from his confidence in other people—it's all rooted in what he perceives this given "person" is capable of. To him, "Satoru" is simply another person who happens to be really good at a lot of things and so deserves to be praised and uplifted as anyone else who's good at what they do; the fact that this person happens to be himself is irrelevant*.
*Note: I once had a YouTube comment discussion with someone, who was surprisingly knowledgeable on Buddhist philosophy, regarding the blurry line between selfishness and selflessness in Gojo. It was great; we discussed anattā and śūnyatā and ended at the Mādhyamaka (Mahayana) school. There, I expounded on why I interpret Satoru as "self-less" instead of "enlightened selfishness" in greater detail. I intend to transcribe it and preserve it here someday. Not now, though!
When I put that understanding into CH236's context, it no longer shocks me to see Gojo wanting to reach out to Sukuna. For a self-less being, there are no distinctions between them ("them-self") and other beings ("other selves"). They are all psychocausal processes in the form of persons. Sukuna is, therefore, "another person" in Satoru's eyes.
Sukuna is a person who's the strongest in his time and was worshipped and feared—not seen as human but as a calamity embodied in a living creature. Note that Satoru's empathy for Sukuna didn't make him condone Sukuna's way of living as "the strongest" (i.e. hedonistic egoist) even in his bare-my-soul afterlife sequence; he merely expressed an understanding of Sukuna's psychology. That understanding led to Satoru expressing compassion to a person who was burdened by being too strong at the top—it was even doubly easy for him to empathize because of Satoru's own lived experience. You can see why Satoru then tried to alleviate Sukuna's suffering in a way he believed could work: giving his all, through humor, etc. These are likely what Satoru wanted someone else to do for him.
You can trace this same attitude in the way he mentored his students. He didn't hold back much (ask Yuta and Hakari again how it feels to be punched by their sensei). He regaled his students (and sometimes colleagues) with excessive humor. He was unabashedly "giving his all"—his childishness and "annoying narcissistic ass" and insanity—to those he especially believed to be liable for being lonely, whether it's because of strength or perceived danger (Yuta, Yuji), circumstances (Yuji, Megumi), life experience (Maki, Nobara), mindset (Nanami, Hakari), etc. It could be gleaned even as far back as his interaction with Riko Amanai when he started to see her less as a job and more as "a person", and so recognized the sort of isolation and alienation Riko was starting to feel as a Star Plasma Vessel. He did the same thing with her—trying to alleviate her suffering through what he believed was best. And yes, he gave his all even back then (no sleep for 3 days, guys.)
---------
Gah the translator for this chapter is fucking amazing! I'm jealous! Also, "I love everyone" is poignant, I think, as it paralleled what was in his head during his awakening ("I don't hate anyone.")
The choice Gege made in depicting the "flower" as lotuses has become subject to various theories. After all, it symbolizes rebirth in some cultures and interpretations. I think it's a valid point for his comeback theories (though I dare not allow myself to hope), but those aside, I actually simply thought of it as yet another allusion to Satoru's connection to Sakyamuni.
Pink lotuses symbolize Buddhahood—a bloomed one is a Buddha; a bud is a Buddha in the making. In Mahayana Buddhism, everyone supposedly has a Buddha nature and is therefore capable of liberation the way Sakyamuni did. They simply need the knowledge (dhamma)... and The Noble's Eightfold Paths/The Noble Eightfold Path taught by a teacher, of course. Gotta subscribe to the course, aye?
This translation actually made me realize that yes, Satoru did mention his students... in a very annoyingly subtle way.
I don't think these lotuses refer to himself. I think they refer to his students.
Hear me out. His goal has always been to raise a generation that could all be strong, so that no one has to be lonely again... including Gojo Satoru (a.k.a. himself), because this would be a world that no longer needs him. To match it with the Buddhist allegory: Satoru, "the Buddha", is trying to raise all of these lotus flowers ("buddhas-in-making") to bloom.
He can make his students bloom (his goal of raising them). He can admire his students (he's proud of them). But he cannot tell his students to "understand him."
Ultimately, he seems to think his students—or anyone, really—don't actually understand how lonely it is to be up here. He doesn't resent it ("I don't feel lonely now"), but it's still an experience that predisposed him to find some resonance in Sukuna. I find it plausible that perhaps, in Satoru's mind, Sukuna is no different from his students in some regards. It certainly fits the trait of a Buddha/Boddhisattva—to be capable of compassion even to creatures and beings most of us wouldn't be.
(Or maybe this feeling comes even more easily considering the fact that Sukuna is wearing Megumi's face.)
---------------------------
Now, I know this is already a long read, but my evolved thoughts are not done yet! This is concerning what I previously saw as the biggest character assassination: Nanami and Haibara's comment on Satoru's character. They basically painted him as a dude who really just did it for his pleasure and no loftier goals. The fact that Satoru didn't even deny it was just crap.
But someone pointed out that the face he made was a frown—Satoru was actually upset that this was what Nanami believed.
Now, I've always been crap at discerning emotions, which extend to expressions. I've interpreted his expression as Satoru feeling embarrassed for being called out or accused. But honestly, it also makes sense to think that this is Satoru frowning at the fact that he's still being misunderstood even after death. He likely didn't bother to correct Nanami because he rather asked Nanami how he felt when he died.
And that, I think, actually dives into heavy meta.
A sizeable number of those who decry Satoru as OOC in his death were upset that the man didn't show his signature self-assuredness, arrogance, and "winner mindset" (this is the gripe I personally disliked the most because it's close to turning Satoru into this Alpha Male egoist role model), and is all-around "acting like a jobber." It's as if they like Satoru because he's the strongest—not because he's Gojo Satoru.
Some, meanwhile, were seething to see him praising Sukuna and trying to reach out to him, calling it OOC glazing, meatriding, etc.
Even those who like him for his character and traits, such as myself, ended up upset at what we believed Satoru was not showing.
Satoru is showing a side of his humanity and it was confusing to a lot of us in big and small ways, for different reasons. A good chunk of it is still, I maintain, the problem with Gege's execution.
But in a meta-sense...
It kinda shows that we don't understand him completely either.
We're kinda being Nanami here. We think we get Gojo Satoru, but then sometimes, we don't... at least not until we try to understand him on his own terms.
What's Gojo famous for?
For being the strongest, most handsome motherfucker who's cool and cocky as fuck with cool-ass OP powers and all that meme-worthy stuff.
He's famous for being Gege's "most hated character," for the jokes about him having zero personality, etc.
Famous for being MAPPA's golden child with glossy ass lips and eyes that burden their animating budget.
He's sexy and hot; fuck did you see what he did to Jogo in Shibuya? He's feral and insane; fuck did you see what he did to Hanami? Or that time he turned Toji into a donut? He's bombastic and larger than life.
He sometimes feels unreal, like an alien. Some people hate him, and some people adore him to bits.
But it takes some digging and analysis for us to realize that Gege lied about him having no personality. Because Satoru is one of the most fleshed-out characters he's ever created. He had more human sides to him that surprised even us—we didn't know he was capable of self-deprecation. We didn't know he was so compassionate he tried to reach out to the villain as if he was Naruto fucking Uzumaki. We suspected other things, like his loneliness at the top, but most of us believed Satoru was more gleeful and smug about being at the top than being angsty about it.
Maybe this was what Gege was trying to do. Or...maybe he didn't intentionally try to do this, and simply fumbled and messed up his way to genius meta-hood (honestly who knows by this point).
Either way, CH236 could be read as an experiment on how right Satoru was about him never being understood. There are just that many larger-than-life projections/assumptions imposed on him—with "he's the strongest" as the most dominant narrative. He was a "living creature" experiencing alienation and dehumanization, even when surrounded and loved by his admirers and supporters, despite sharing everyone's common thread of the human condition.
All he could do when we argued about how weird he was because he didn't fit what we believed... was to frown and move on.
---------
Extra thought:
I know it's a conspiracy theory by this point that Gege did Satoru dirty because Gojo is his least favorite character, but I really think Gege is joking. If CH236 sucks in its execution of Gojo's afterlife sequence, it's because Gege hasn't been doing emotional beats and characterization well for a long time by now. Not because he hates Gojo.
Think about it—Gege hasn't cared to pause the battle for some deep-cut emotional shit since the Culling Game arc, and yet CH236 is where the battle takes the backstage (so backstage it's a fucking OFFSCREEN DEATH. COME ON, GREG!). Every panel in that chapter was drawn with details and care, and he took a step back from the fighting just to give Gojo even more characterization and flesh.
Guys, I really think Gege loves Gojo.
Him bashing Gojo is him teasing Gojo the way Gojo teases other people like Utahime and Nanami and Megumi. He doesn't really know how to show his love for Gojo in the manga because his executions do miss, but I think he crafted Gojo lovingly. He fucking loves him. I think I'm actually willing to bet on this.
----
The evolution of my CH236-centric ramble goes from here, to here, to this. I also wanna shout out to the answer in that Reddit post that helped me understand the emotional beat of CH236 better (which allowed me to realize something else). I don't have a Reddit account though. I ghost-read!
Thank you for reading my ramble.
#writing this gave me a migraine; good thing I'm going to sleep after this#once again I have no originality and am only capable of mixing and matching ideas from other people#but as a friend on Tumblr once said: everyone does that more or less. I can only hope I'm competent this time too#my head hurt but the ramble itself was quite exhilarating#I hope the length is not a deterrent#man what happened to me being a To Your Eternity essayist#jjk 236#jjk#jujutsu kaisen#gojo satoru#jjk gojo#jjk meta#Kafka's Buddhism hammer to all nails

big question
would jay wholeheartedly love subnautica for the detailed fish behavior or for the little fish taxonomy
As someone who has never really been much of a gamer, I did not know about this game and had to look it up. Oh boy, Jay would go FERAL over this thing. But to answer the main question, I'm not entirely sure since I haven't played this game and don't know much about it (though it does look fun and I'm interested in it for sure), but I think the detailed fish behaviour would interest him more?
#again—no idea how this game works apart from what the basic premise is which i read online#i keep getting warnings for spoilers which is definitely a deterrent#can you like#observe fish? and see how they behave? in this game?#(not only do i not know how this game works—i also don't know jackshit about most games in general)#:(#but yeah if that's the case then 100% jay would love to study the fish behaviour and learn more about that#he needs to know everything about every single creature and how it acts and like everything#nox's asks#my oc stuff#thanks for sending this ask jbrkfhdnf i found out something cool toda#also now i know where that peeper thing is from

this country is so violent. goddammit we are going to teach kids that murdering other kids is wrong by... putting a 14 year old to death. awesome, that definitely will do the trick.
edit: man I totally misunderstood the article I was reading, I don't think he can be given the death sentence but he will probably be getting life without parole.
#please dont get me wrong i absolutely will not cry for this pos kid but the death penalty is wrong period full stop#it is not a deterrent#it is not going to serve justice#it is just revenge#thats all#and im sorry but if a kid does this shit then something went wrong and thats on community and society#obviously there needs to be SERIOUS consequences#but consequences do not mean THE DEATH PENALTY#fucking christ i hate this country#also go the fuck after the parents what the fuck#the fbi shows up to question him and the dad LAST YEAR because there was a credible threat and he still accessed fucking guns???#i just saw an interview with a sweet baby kid who witnessed it#i cannot imagine#we have FAILED these kids#gun violence#school shootings

#yall abuse this shit? for what the unbearable feeling that if someone touched you you would crumble like a puzzle pushed off a table?#upped my dose for my new meds and woo my body is not handling it well#this is such a great deterrent for me not to do drugs because even if i did have the money if i went through this again id fight someone
