Sometimes, when I've researched something and compiled a ton of useful information about a topic... wish there was a lemmy for that. Kind of the opposite of asklemmy.
Baba Brinkman does rap music about science, evolution.
If you speak from experience, fellow human: is it possible to cook dried beans if all you have is a small, bowl sized pot?
The Wrinkle in Time movie, think Oprah was in it. Haven't seen it, heard it's horrendous.
Sheath knife around neck. Originally for self defense, but way useful for other things.
Lot of what you said is true. Good advice many people should follow.
Just, paradoxical reactions are a bit more complex, took me decades to figure out. Nyquil has me curled in a ball, twitching, spasming uncontrollably. Nodoze sent me into a violent rage, up all night. Lot of meds, make most sleepy, but me, rush of energy, awake all night. Antipsychotics meant to calm me, instead out of control anger. Benadryl means eyes wide, pulse racing.
It had nothing to do with dosage, plasma levels, titration. There are just some people bizarrely hypersensitive to meds, who have the bizarre 1% side effects the other 99% doesn't get.
But for that 99%, everything you said is true, again good advice and info.
East bay here, felt it. Felt like apt building was rolling, shifting. Then followed by a rumbling shaking that lasted less than a minute.
A week's nothing. Think my top score was 3 months with absolutely no sleep. Lifelong insomnia ftw.
Edit. Meant to say 1 month with no sleep. Don't think 3 months no sleep is physically possible. I can last maybe 3 to 4 months of just 1 to 2 hours sleep a night, before complete collapse.
Depression is circumstantial, been trapped in overcrowded slums below poverty level. What I need is a safe, clean, stable place to live, and help finding a job. Instead I'm surrounded by drug addicts, screaming, violence, overcrowding, filth; social services meager, bureaucratic and strained. It wears one down.
I need society to be better
Def Leppard, pour some sugar on me
Yeah. Thought posting this to no stupid questions would be OK. No luck.
