Is there a wig that doesn't heat your head?
  • This is going to be a weird suggestion, but I used to do professional stage makeup including wigs and bald caps. Has your mom considered getting a partial wig? Maybe a Mohawk or side hawk? It would have to be glued by a professional hair stylist, but it would be an excellent way to have hair but without sweating under a wig. Best of luck to your mom! Losing hair sucks.

  • Beware this fatal design of automatic litter boxes from ali express or amazon or similar - they can be DEADLY
  • I did cry watching that. What the fuck man, how hard is it to make a litter box that doesn't kill pets!?!! You had one job!

  • What movie did you watch as I kid which you shouldn't have?
  • I watched this movie in collage! It is definitely creepy and unsettling the whole way through. I never had a desire to watch it again either.

  • Pete Buttigieg Thinks ‘We’re Still Underreacting to Project 2025’
  • What do you mean, we can't throw him in prison!? IF we had a functional justice system he would have been hung as a traitor to the United States. He tried to overthrow the government and kill the vice president. There should have been no coming back from that. This isn't just hearsay we saw it happen live. Then he sold documents to any foreign government who showed interest, which is also highly, HIGHLY illegal.

    If the justice system is so broken as to not penalize a man who is attempted to take down our democracy multiple times, than project 2025 is inevitable. If it not illegal to overthrow the government, than why does it matter who we elect?

  • What do SSRIs "feel like"?
  • My experience with Zoloft: or the greatest thing that has ever happened to me:

    I have autism, which led to crippling, crushing anxiety and depression. It wasn't until my mid twenties that I broke down. I could barely hold a job, talk on the phone, I couldn't even get a drivers lisense because I had panic attacks behind the wheel so no one was willing to even TRY to teach me anymore. Zoloft changed everything. Within a few days of taking it I was less depressed sure, but the reduction of the anxiety was a miracle. I could take phone calls! I got a drivers license! I was able to get a good paying job and get my life together. It enabled me to get therapy and a diagnosis of autism which really helped me to understand a lot of my underlying problems. I remember asking my friend, after my first successful trip DRIVING to the store, is this how normal poeple feel ALL THE TIME!!??? Not crushed 24/7 by fear so bad it would make me puke!??

    Side effects: I gained a lot of weight and my sex drive took a huge, huge nose dive. If I miss more than three doses I get terrible brain zaps, and can't do anything until I get my meds. Even moving my EYES felt like lighting through my skull.

    Hopefully my mini novel here was helpful, I feel like one of the few lucky, lucky poeple who had such a good reaction to SSDI inhibitors.

    TLDR: took zoloft for depression, instead it ended up being the best anti- anxiety medication I have and I am still taking it. 10/10 would Zoloft again.

  • ‘We should have better answers by now’: climate scientists baffled by unexpected pace of heating
  • With the release of this much methane this fast, we might as well be out of equation at this piont. And by this fast, I mean on a earth's climate timescale, not a human one. How could we possibly stop what is already snowballing? We HAD our chance to stop this and we did nothing. It is too late now to do anything but survive the new world we have made.

  • ‘We should have better answers by now’: climate scientists baffled by unexpected pace of heating
  • Glaciers are reaching tipping points as well. Insane heat waves at both poles. It's over guys. Most poeple don't realize it yet but it's over. Those glaciers and poles took an entire iceage to form, and they are not going to come back.

  • A local fish and chip shop closed down, someone wrote this outside...

  • Ah yes, another day, another horror done deliberately and maliciously by my government. Great. I hope everyone of those monsters that enabled this to happen die a horrible heat related death.

  • Does anyone else have a limtied amount of feelings per set time period?

    I have what I call the Feeling Things Meter. Meaning that in a certain period of time, about one to three days, I have a set amount of feelings I am allowed to feel. If I exceed the number of feelings and fill up the meter I blank out and get to feel nothing at all. I can feel the Meter filling up, and I know when I am about to exceed it.

    This also applies to feelings from movies, shows, games books and music. So I have to carefully plan out my entertainment around life events as best I can.

    As you can imagine it becomes incredibly hard to navigate adult life with no feelings. And not just the big feelings but the little ones too. No drive to go out and do the shopping. No satisfaction of completeing a task. No disappointment if I screw something up. Nothing.

    No one else in my life has this, or anything close to it. Most people look at me like I'm a crazy person when I try to explain it. I'm always making excuses for not wanting to watch movies or shows with friends, or bailing when a sad song comes on.

    Please, I just want to know someone else has this problem. Anyone. How do you cope? Do you even listen to music? Do you have to leave movies halfway through becuase you couldn't take it?

    I just want to know I'm not alone.

    Is there any way to have Youtube links open in browser instead of the Youtube app?

    Basically the title. I hate the ad ridden offical Youtube app and would prefer to have it open in Firefox or some other browser. Is this possible? Is there a setting I missed? If it's not possible right now can it be possible in the future?

    Also I love Jerboa, perfect replacement for RIF, been very happy with it so far, much love!
