    Man that is the most american and then rez/native conversation ever. The office assistants outside were talking about food. The youngest lady was talking to one of the older assistants and she is more my age. First they were talking about how this microwave food the youngest got was labeled medium but was too hot as it contained "some heat". To which my brain said "a medium amount of heat then?".

    But then they progressed towards young love. The younger was talked about this guy who likes her so much that after their last date he came back last weekend with a deer heart for her to eat. To with both the younger and the older OA proceeded to "awwww" at and say "yeah he really likes you".

    So are certain hearts more meaningful than others or would a deer heart and turkey heart be about the same?

    well a deer heart is probably bigger

    Allegedly a voice of reason.

    Update: MrMrMister is safe, at least for now. By contrast, his work friend just got told she could either quit or keep working full time for half pay :?

    what the fuck

    so they won't fire her so she can collect unemployment

    that's fucking crazy

    like that seems like it should be illegal...?

    that's the type of thing that you can collect unemployment on usually. I forget the exact terminology, but it's same as the situation where the person with a 40 hour a week job gets told, you get 5/hr a week or you can quit. It's constructive termination (I don't think that's the term of art though).

    if its lasting a couple of days + fever its likely E-Coli poisoning.

    was that the thing that still, 15 years later, gets referred to as "the Panera Incident"

    YES

    Really, Days Gone does not have zombies. They are feral humans called Freakers.

    Those are called zombies.

    The Freakers don't decay and sleep.

    How do they not decay

    Are they eating burgers inbetween bouts of zombieing?
    I don't think any representation of zombies in any popular media even comes close to standing up under scrutiny. You can't have actual dead things move around because of changes that occur in dead muscle tissue just short hours after death. Parasites that goad the still-alive body to move around still need to somehow maintain metabolism and eat. And after two weeks... well, that means that MAGIC is involved, which also means MAGIC IS REAL (and not in a Chuck Tingle sort of way), which means you can start studying to become a necromancer (at the very least).

    Imagine a zombie game set in a realistic world where the player character is trying to figure out how zombies can work in the hopes it will help in stopping them. Nobody can figure out how the zombies work as none of their ideas can explain all the major features of the zombies. The character gets to the source of the zombies and it turns out to be literally magic done by a necromancer.

    What a twist!
    I would love to play a zombie adventure/puzzle game where they randomized the source of the zombies with some twists, and each playthrough of the game has a different story. Maybe in this one, the zombies are a virus? Maybe in the next playthrough, the zombies are magical? And in each iteration, they have different weaknesses depending on the source.

    Maybe a game where multiple sources of zombies happen at once.

    "Zombies are after us!"
    "Dead people brought to life by magic zombies, virus zombies, fungus zombies, or weird animal parasite zombies?"
    You find out it's two SEPARATE corporations that are trying to beat each other to the market and simultaneously released two separate zombie forms, and they are fighting each other. It's like Umbrella Corp versus Proctor&Gamble or something.

    (I will cop to being very tetchy about "food poisoning" versus "you definitely have the flu or something else you can get help with, my dude" because I have. several friends with severe immune issues and our health system sucks and it's very exasperating so apologies if I was sounding v internet bossy, it's just v frustrating, especially because our system is built to be shitty and stay shitty)

    I once had to make a decision about throwing up or shitting in the toilet and it was 3:20 am and I was delirious because I had just been throwing up for like 15 minutes at that point.

    And let me tell you the decision "throw up first then shit" was the wrong fucking choice

    not a doctor, not a lawyer, examples I use may not be fully researched so don't take out of context plz, don't @ me

    ok I called the advice nurse from kaiser and as expected she said

    1. my description is consistent with food poisoning, maybe salmonella specifically
    2. it isn't necessary to go in to see someone unless it is like this for a whole week without any improvement
    3. stay hydrated eat easy foods etc

    so in other words, a waste of time, I am correct, etc

    but also actually not a waste of time because it's nice to have a compassionate person talk to you and be like o noooo your guts :(

    Use the trash can. Then you can just dump it in the toilet and don't have to clean a chunky shower drain.

    This doesn’t seem like empirical truth, also doesn’t follow from ground truths, as long as the numbers maintain their relationships
