This is why you shouldn’t kill rattlesnakes. If we kill the rattlesnakes that make themselves known, over time they adapt to not rattle before striking.

At least this one might bap you under the couch and furiously paw around under it before giving up and just screaming

I’m sorry he’s acting like that 😞 can’t stand when people feel like they can just ignore it and make it go away, and keep making you feel like it’s your fault when you raise the issue

Very first thing my mom said when my sis and I came out:

“what a waste of <my age> years of my life, I suppose we’ll just have to adopt replacement children”

Have been getting into making a smoothie in the morning for fruit intake too, similar thought process. just get a bag of frozen berries, throw some in a blender with chia seeds, protein powder, Greek yogurt, oat milk, peanut butter, and maple syrup. (or other sweetener if desired) Tasty and after drinking one in the morning the protein + fiber keeps me full for the whole day.

makes sense, just didn’t know black piss was a thing at all. Sounds terrifying if you don’t know what’s causing it, hah.

When I’m mentally unwell, I isolate myself instead of sharing the load with the loved ones in my life that would jump at the opportunity to support me. I fear being seen in a vulnerable state and given enough rumination I can easily find “reasons” why maybe it would be for the best if I disappeared for a bit instead.

I haven’t been able to directly overcome it yet, but I’ve become aware enough to communicate it and people in my life at least know the signs of it happening now.

what’s with the ones in black near the bottom? took methocarbamol for some time and feel like I’d remember pissing black, is that a thing??

also, yes more nurse memes please 😁

all solid advice, also love “Starting Strength” for covering the big five lifts. I’m a big fan of “New Functional Training for Sports” by Michael Boyle too, it’s a little broader and outlines a lot of very useful free weight exercise progressions. “The Muscle and Strength Pyramid” by Eric Helms is also a great resource to introduce program design ideas like periodization, etc.

LOVE me some Holy Locust, good find 😁

I’m standing outside the LL Bean

…tryna get some free woman sweaters, know what I mean?

Sure, but that’s still not necessarily sex?

One can also wear fun undergarments to a date and then decide not to undress or have sex - usually I think of it as “in case something happens” rather than expecting it from the outset. If nobody sees it, it’s not a disappointment, it’s just fun regardless.

🥵

Give it 5 years, we’ll get there

meanwhile gothic/outlaw country is out here like “I’m going to kill a cop and then go fishing but then catch Satan himself and then everyone dies”

don’t worry I got lost for you :)

it’s a common and frustrating trope for sure.

Today is Sunday, March 2093rd, 2020.

what I’ve learned is that your average confident-looking gym rat can also still have no idea what they’re doing with the equipment. Pretty much everyone needs someone to show em the ropes and get em started at least.

Unfortunately, this will be cited by local/regional/noncompetitive leagues to justify their own bans. here in the US at least, the way your kid’s softball team trains and competes is a mimicry of the most elite. This will have an effect at every level, even if the number of trans folks at the highest competitive level is too small to even be effectively studied.

Nice! Looks fun, thanks 😁
