One of my longest friendships, someone I deeply care for just blocked me because she made the decision that she's not good for my family. She hasn't talked to me recently I don't even really know what she's doing in her life but that's it. Gone.
"Isn't it weird that [thing humans commonly eat] is poisonous to literally every domesticated animal" I mean, there's a pretty good chance that [thing humans commonly eat] is at least mildly poisonous to humans, too.

so my parents speak czech decently, but when they were learning it they were obsessed with the words hedgehog and baby jesus. both words sound similar to each other; "ježek" and "ježíšek" respectively. They used to get them mixed up in their heads all the time. but even after they eventually figured out the difference, as a joke they would still call the baby Jesus a hedgehog. and every time they saw a hedgehog, they would act like it's the most venerable thing in the world and refer to it as the blessed baby Jesus.
Interesting thing, last time I got an eye exam the Dr was looking at the pictures of the blood vessels in my eyes and asks "were you born premature?" And I'm like "yup 3 months" and he says "neat come look at this" so it turns out that you can tell if someone was born premature because a blood vessel in your eye meanders more than normal when it develops.
Having a bad mental health night. Started vaping again and realized it just makes me feel like shit when I'm coming down and hiding it from the fam just hurts... Found myself thinking that a peaceful death wouldn't be so bad right now... I'm so tired of being this tired piece of shit. How do I get better?
