Someone leaves me out of a group chat due to the color of my text bubble, I doubt there was any benefit to being included in the conversation anyway.

The urethra is still separate from the digestive system though.

I work in hospice and see a variety of conditions. Some people in their 60’s with significant mobility issues that are chronically exhausted, but then there’s the patients in their 90’s who just recently started cutting back on social events and activities due to injury/illness.

Seeing these differences was why I started roller skating (again) at 49 and increased other activities to keep my ass moving and challenge my coordination and balance. I want to get everything I can out of this life.

Then I’m guessing rubs the residue on his gums. Repeatedly.

Can’t let it go to waste!

LD50’s are fun!

I read that in Wallace’s voice.

I can see someone submitting a DNA sample to Ancestry and watching the horror/drama unfold.

What would be worse - finding out the sample came from a missing person, or someone who never offered the donation?

Is it the diet Coke or the lifestyle of the person who consumes it in significant quantities?

I’ve noticed that during healthier times of my life when I’m experience less stress, I have no interest in junk food or soda. When I get stressed and I’m not sleeping as well, I get more cravings and find myself making unhealthier choices for the little satisfying bump a dose of sweet/salty/fatty snack and a caffeinated soda provide. Obviously living a stressful life is unhealthy as a baseline.

Just throwing this out there, but while this is the direction you went to deal with the trauma you experienced, do you feel like it’s the healthiest path? I have a loved one with PTSD from trauma. There are many ways to deal with it, but I dare guess that therapy (with the right therapist for you) may give you better, healthier tools.

I only wish you well, and hope you find peace.
