"You shouldn't pop poison ivy blisters" words uttered by people who have never had their skin create what is essentially bubble wrap that regenerates hourly. It would almost be enjoyable if it weren't for the obvious downsides.

Definitely talk to your doctor, you will almost certainly need blood work to confirm that you take it.

I've used ozempic for a short time in the past and it worked wonders for me, and I know several other people who have had similar experiences. I didn't need to lose a huge amount of weight, but my weight gain was spiraling out of control due to depression and the lowest possible dose very quickly allowed me to reverse course.

I did not have a "rebound" weight gain after stopping like some people experience. I never experienced true nausea, just occasionally felt a little "icky" if that makes any sense. My snack cravings all but disappeared while I was taking it and I feel like there has not been any "rebound" issues after stopping, but again, I was on a very low dose.

The police are extremely averse to investigating any death that could feasibly be a suicide, and I'd imagine that's even more salient when the victim is a minority. I've heard second-hand stories of this happening in my town under even more suspicious circumstances, they will do literally anything to avoid extra work.

Anyone want to sponsor me to quit my job and play Satisfactory for approximately two years nonstop? I'll give you a cut of my profits when I make it big as a streamer, you could consider it an ethical investment in my mental health.

I have a refurb unlocked Pixel 8 Pro and it's easily the best phone I've ever owned. I previously owned mostly mid-range Samsungs and they always seemed to start shitting the bed in different ways within one or two years, I doubt I'll be going back to that.

Absolutely living for how sloppy this divorce is. I can't wait until Elon posts a video of himself crying from the driver's seat of a cybertruck.

Not to be "that guy", but are you 100% certain that's what it was? Did you get a close look at it, like 20 feet away or less?

I would get some 20 lb monofilament fishing line and hang it randomly near the windows.

I like how they designed it to run like it's got a full diaper

"lol my friend took my phone and typed that"

 

The link is not 100% but two hunters eating from the same deer population and falling ill at around the same time is extremely unlikely to be a coincidence.

We are essentially one mutation away from this spreading between humans and that would be very, very bad.

 

Encourage your crabs to do some light stretching because I have a feeling they will be dancing soon
