I had a coworker (woman in her 60s) who was suspended from high school for wearing pants. That would have been ~early 1970s, so math checks out

I know a lot of people who deal with eczema and related skin conditions. Recognizing the triggers for flare ups is important. Humidity/changes in weather is a big one. Knowing what products help symptoms/make them worse is another one.

I'd say start with the basics: drink more water, use head&shoulders shampoo, get some good unscented lotion (Aveeno). The target house brand "up&up" "intensive healing lotion" with 1% hydrocortisone works really well on hands/dry spots/blisters. I use it every winter. Drink an oz of olive oil every day why not

Looks like somebody took a bike pump to those piggies and made sure they were extra plump

Heh I had to read "A Different Mirror" for a class in college. Haven't really seen it mentioned since.

i'm sure the OP in screenshot would be the first to volunteer to die if they contracted an illness that could be treated with modern medicine. surely their argument isn't just an excuse to remove their particular brand of "undesirables"

i see he's taking the same fierce leadership to correct the media as he did to correct inflation

100% agree with OP's graphic.

i spent most of the year in a depressed haze (i had a series of tumultuous life changes from 2017-2022), but, after a mushroom trip, i've taken stock of the year, and i'm actually doing really well:

  • got my project car almost dialed in with solid plans to complete it in 2024 (well, "complete" it. still gotta source a differential, exhaust header, install a kill switch, etc).

  • have a half dozen houseplants doing well, made two ink transfer prints on some flower pots that i'm happy with how they turned out. got a humidifier and grow light. planning out my next props

  • the house we bought 3 years ago is starting to come together and have a vibe

  • work is easy, union, and pays well. coworkers are pleasant enough. saving four digits every month.

  • relationship with family is pretty okay.

  • still haven't gotten covid, overall have had good health

  • accomplished my fitness goal (lift 1,000,000 pounds before 12/31)

  • trying to be nicer to the people in my life
