    I had a friend that was afraid to cross running water.

    He was in daylight so it was just some weird fear.

    They do say that you can't cross the same river twice

    Maybe he was worried about being trapped in some kind of travelling salesman puzzle where he ends up trapped on an island for ever

    I've got sinus surgery coming up on Tuesday. They're going to carve out a whole mess of polyp tissue, including a bit where they're going to go up through my upper gums to roto-root one of my cheek sinuses. They're also going to cut bits off the cartilage that separates my nasal sinuses and grind down some bony bits in there.

    Right now I'm trying to convince myself that we'd definitely be able to tell the difference between an anesthetic that actually prevented you feeling pain and one that was just a really effective paralytic that also caused temporary anterograde amnesia.

    Does your friend ride a horse and carry a lit jack-o-lantern in place of his missing head? If so I can help him with this problem he has if he wants to meet me and my friends somewhere. 🚫👻

    One day I'd like to make a story about Vampires that hate vampire fiction because it's not accurate at all and they actually live like vagrants in abandoned buildings because modern society makes feeding and living normally impossible

    IIRC Supernatural had an episode with Vampires abusing the Twilight craze to find victims.

    Doctors used to paralyze, but not anaesthetize, babies for surgery because it was thought that they were too undeveloped to feel pain. Nowadays we think that's horrifying, because yes of course they can feel pain, wtf? Even though they won't remember it later.

    Why is it any different to do that to an adult? Honest question. Severe pain still has neurobiological consequences even if you don't remember it, right?

    Not much horror on this one, just a guy that likes to live in haunted apartments.

    Going through spooky video game easter egg compilations is always a fun time. I always like it when spooky stuff shows up in ostensibly nonspooky games.

    I'm not talking about actual youtube placed advertisements. You clearly didn't click on the video and spend 2 minutes listening to the guy yammer about Audible!

    I mean... Sponsored videos mean the creator gets paid directly instead of relying on YouTubes inscrutable monetization system and it also means they get to choose who advertises on their videos instead of just being assigned an ad based on YouTube's algorithm

    The only other way creators have of controlling their own income is Patreon, which is dependent on how many patrons you can get.

    Sponsored videos are way way way better than YouTube monetized videos.
