    How fast were you going?

    There are not many times when
    one would welcome a knife from an assassin.
    Leaving waves of frowns and shouts from the scene,
    Our sanctuary became tainted with a fungal gloom.

    The survivors psych up with deep, held breath.
    Since the fangs were revealed, anxiety crowded our lungs.
    We had thought the betrayer as someone fun, normal, and safe.
    Our friend who’d leave muddy, desperate tracks into the banks.

    In the murky lake, we dived for sincerity.
    In waters clouded with a kind dream,
    Filled with rainbow schools of peace and reform.
    Haunted now by the specter of the discovered beast.

    Limbs elongated into razor fins as long scars lined the betrayer,
    Revealed to us an open history of life’s hidden cruelty.
    The lake’s lycanthrope was clapped in pity by a fast and united net.
    The scum from it’s skin, dragged into separate distant waters.

    Thanks was given when the divers resurfaced
    Solidarity forming a protective wall of warm hands.
    No tolerance now in our village of sharp knives.
    A vigilance against jokes of a bad and fishy taste.

    I don't plan on ever moving until I am rich enough to be able to hire people to pack everything up and move my stuff for me.
    So yeah, rich people are the worst

    If that's all there is my friends, then let's keep dancing

    Update: the pride that goeth before the fall, I'm pretty proud of this wall of hodge podge boxes I was able to make, and will seal in with the big ass matress. Please come back for updates on the 6th for "oh my God everything I own is upside down and shattered"

    YouTube videos that are just reactions to other YouTube videos.

    Actually, no. If it's a reaction to a video that has since been taken down *cough cough*abridged series* , that allows you to see the original with a minimum of alterations.

    I do want people to just show up, college style

    Maybe with three minutes' warning so I can pop the kettle and/or trousers on

    Speaking of moving I can barely move right now because my medication shipment was delayed.

    For no real reason either! I have no idea why they didn't ship it in time!

    Seriously. I hate planning things and like hosting so I am always happy when people just go "Hey we should have another smash brothers thing at your place tomorrow" and I can just say "okay" and buy some beer and not worry about it

    Wait I wanna change my answer it's when you get a little bit of skin pulled up around your thumbnail and then everytime you use your thumb for various thumb purposes you bump that spot and it's like

    My wife is Bipolar, going through a bad depressive period right now, and my son is almost 2.

    Does that count?

    For cluster headaches they briefly tried self dosed sumitriptan for me, in a little spring loaded needle. Only ever managed it once, and you bet I looked away as I swung my arm down onto my thigh. So I feel you.

    Also worst is landlord popping up to say "heyyy it might not be ready the date the lease says" I have thus far stuck to "cool, I'll work with you but guess you're getting me a hotel that allows cats, cause this lease has a date on it dude, it ain't my fault your contractors are slow" we will see how that plays.

    Having a four-month-old puppy and not quite knowing what is wrong with him but seeing quite clearly that something is wrong and worrying about the little fella from morning to nighttime. Thankfully we're clearly over the worst of it now but MAN it's been a rough 3 or 4 days. Hopefully I can get some proper sleep tonight.

    Seeing some of your mental illnesses developing in your kids. Knowing the anxiety and depression they might have to face and feeling like it's your fault because you have those same illnesses.

    That one really sucks.

    At least you have the perspective and knowledge to be able to say the things to them that you wish you had known at their age.

    I clot so fast that anytime I have needle work (injections, blood draws) done I just go straight to the nearest bathroom and remove whatever bandaging they've applied.

    However I left the dentist office five hours ago and my mouth still tastes strange.

    I have an extreme phobia of needles in general. Which is a lovely little hell considering how hard I am to stick and how often I must be stuck.

    I could never get the Humira shots to work right because I'd inevitably flinch after spending all day trying to administer the shot, and if you flinch on the self injector then you the thing misfires and you don't get the full dose.

    The stuff I have now has to be put in the thigh and hurts like a mother going in, so I always need help administering it.

    Oh yeah. I definitely take this as a positive that I can recognize the symptoms and know how to react.

    When I was a junior in high school and I loved playing Hero Quest I saw at a hobby store in Ft Collins had both the Elf and Barbarian quest packs. At the time I never heard of them and knew about other published stuff for the game but I could barely afford one of the things so I passed.
    They currently sell for $400+ 25 years later

    Those are insanely hard to find. I had the Elf Quest expansion and I sold it about 18 years ago for $120 and I regret it now.

    Facebook seems net negative for you dude, treat your mental health to the Oasis of...not Facebook. Also you are a dope parent for looking out for your kid and being understanding from the get go.

    It sucks because I'm into craft beer and collecting sports memorabilia and both of those things are RIFE with this shit. Toxic masculinity is even worse.

    I like cars. "car guys" are 95% every single kind of *ist there is, and 5% decent people.

    I like video games. "gamers" are 95% every single kind of *ist there is, and 5% decent people.

    I like archery and shooting. "twang 'n' bangers" are 95% every single kind of fuck it I can't be bothered typing it out anymore.

    All the stuff I like is chick full of fucking assholes, it's so hard to find communities that actively repel those kinds of folks, like say a certain webcomic's forum we're all currently posting on.

    People say that forums are dying (and they are!), and I personally believe that a LOT of it is thanks to the sharp uptake in far-right activity online that came about with the election of Obama and the reactionary rise of the "tea party", because so many forums that used to be full of people just talking about cricket or homemade pottery or whatever have had to either spend a great deal of resources working to keep those chodes out, or collapse under the weight of the bigots scaring away all the nicer regulars.

    Going to bed late, putting food in the tinted cat bowls so they don't wake you up in the morning, and still waking up at half six

    Although as I normally have to wake up at half five, I guess it still counts as a lie in

    I got sumatriptan for migraine and there was nothing scarier than when I got aura at work, told my boss I was leaving sick, drove home as fast as I could (I have about 25 minutes once aura starts to get my dose administered or it won't work), got home right as the bell rank 25 minutes, put the needle hole to my hip and it fucking fired liquid onto my hip. It was my last dose and without insurance the 2-dose package was $110. And then after all that the migraine wasn't even close to as bad as my normal ones.

    But! To answer the thread question: dementia is the worst.
