Fun little thing about medieval medicine.
So there’s this old German remedy for getting rid of boils. A mix of eggshells, egg whites, and sulfur rubbed into the boil while reciting the incantation and saying five Paternosters. And according to my prof’s friend (a doctor), it’s all very sensible. The eggshells abrade the skin so the sulfur can sink in and fry the boil. The egg white forms a flexible protective barrier. The incantation and prayers are important because you need to rub it in for a certain amount of time.
It’s easy to take the magic words as superstition, but they’re important.

it’s so wild that the best lyric in pop music history (“tell your boyfriend / if he says he’s got beef / that I’m a vegetarian and I ain’t fuckin scared of him”) and the worst lyric in history (“do the hellen keller and talk with yo hips”) are both from the same song (“DONTTRUSTME” by 3OH!3). just. crazy how that works

So.. not only did Netflix add advertisements to the standard plan… but there are now movies you can only watch if you upgrade and pay over twice as much for the no-ad plans. Paying for a Netflix account no longer gives you access to all the content on Netflix.
Great. Grand. Love this for us. 🙄
Death to the streaming giants.

unfortunately a lot of the corny self help advice turns out to be true but the thing is you have to come to those conclusions yourself otherwise it just sounds dismissive and dumb
