    I will totally have a two-burg day.

    I ate three open faced anchovy sandwiches today, so you could be having a more questionable culinary day.

    Welp, cardiologist says I'm basically in perfect health. My heart is super healthy and strong, all my levels are good. I'm overweight but other than that, I'm essentially in tip top shape.

    So the culprit is anxiety and I need to find ways to chill out. Wheeee

    At least it is solvable. I dread getting my heart looked at right now.

    Do it now before you have to stare at it on an ECG while it looks back at you like a sad half deflated stretched out eggplant

    it's not for 'recreational' use it looks like, only in a therapeutic setting:
    would allow licensed facilitators to administer psilocybin to patients

    Yeah and marijuana was once only legal for medicinal purposes. It's cool to see a trend towards rethinking drug prohibition when certain drugs were only outlawed because of who was using them, not what they did.

    I had some of the new chicken sliders from sonic. They were pretty decent.
    Taco Bell's servers got fucking wrecked by the free $5 Combo thing today
    So that was a no go.

    I got a Route 44 Cherry Limeade.

    It rained a lot yesterday, maybe the nests flooded and they fell out

    Don't take this the wrong way, Athenor, but you look like you are about to post a manifesto of some sort. Although, knowing you, it will probably be about Transformers and board games.

    No, you're right! I absolutely want to get a do-over, but I don't want to spend another hour in the DMV!

    For the country responsible for Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles, 'Airbender' seems like the kind of thing that would have been changed for localization.

    Lego roller coaster. One of my bigger sets. Also the place where the MCU congregates to have fun.
