Oh wow. I saw a shot of his Easter blessing and thought he looked shit. Poor old fella. I think he was one of the (few) good ones.
oh dear
I hope someone with a strong anti-fascist character is chosen as replacement
Me too. This one was at least progressive in some ways and could have offered some protection in the face of advancing fascism :(
I read he recently assigned (annointed/annnounced) a bunch of new Cardinals - mostly from emerging nations across Africa and Oceania. Also ensuring that 80%+ of the conclave will be cardinals that he approves of. That bodes well at least. Though having grown up around the church I don't hold a lot of hope in those guys.
OH just said the same thing
Sent a cardinal to lecture vance, turns out he was on his deathbed. Chose not to spend his final hours with vance. Top call.
Smart move.
That would have been one of the worst ways to spend his last hours considering their past meetings have been not so great.
Plus vance probably would have attempted to copulate with said deathbed
Missed the train this morning by ten minutes. I was wearing my watch upside down. ๐
I was right.
Was doubling up.
Good I know now, but can't help but feel annoyed at the years of unnecessary anxiety lol
Edit: surprisingly more focused and motivated on half the dose. I'm still a bit shocked at what's been happening this whole time. ๐คฆ
Would you give 1/4 a shot?
Already tried. Wasn't enough. A 50% reduction is fucking massive though.
that's good you have it figured out now
not good your docs didn't tell you what to watch out for
Good you worked it out. Maybe itโs contributed to the migraines, too?
I think so because my body isn't as tense. I actually feel relaxed for the first time in half a decade lol
But in all seriousness, it'll be an adjustment. I'm glad I figured it out.
Did the doctor give you a certain dosage and you figured it out on your own?
No I was given a script and told to work it out.
Thatโs an interesting approach.
I hope youโll be feeling better overall and also able to relax a little and get some much needed sleep.
Public health warning, although I fear it may be too late..
Save yourselves! These eggs are crack. NOBODY in this house has been able to stop at one bag!
Jesus titty pancakes is it even possible to get a tv below 24" now?? It's for "i don't wanna get out of bed and wanna watch shit" I don't want a goddamn theatre in there
I have a widescreen monitor on my computer that doubles as a TV. I have a tiny living room x office and it works well.
Wish I had some chippies for the Easter Monday footy match.
Got some gummy lollies and some pink moscato for today.
Go the mighty Cats!

My brain radio is now stuck on Evenescence.
Wake me up inside Wake me up inside Call my name and save me from the dark
The Last of Us season 2 ep2 was fucking jaw dropping if you are a fan of the series
Oh yuck. There is a reason I generally avoid red wine. Histamines and crying make for one puffy Catfish. Fetch me a cucumber!
I hope youโre ok Catfish
Yes thank you. Just having the sads on behalf of a friend.
took me an hour to figure out one of things i wrote on my shopping list
so tired from housework yesterday i'm just going out doing errands today
Currently trying to convince the microphones that don't exist I have IBS and want a firearm to shoot wild pigs
Start complaining about needing it for 30-50 feral hogs to protect your children
sick of fake YT of classical music and fake jordan peterson ( not kidding, there are many fake yt channels using simulated peterson voice and ai written psychobabble )
A bit of rain - finally! Watering the garden should have worked, but I did pack away the big hose from the front garden so maybe that jinxed it. Grateful for all we get though. It's just been so so dry - it's far past the usual time for the autumn break.
The Easter bunny brought me an Allen's Easter egg with popping candy through it and it was very good.
Finally! Coolth!!!
Itโs my fault it didnโt rain, I fell asleep without hanging the laundry out
OK. Let the adhd med trial #4 begin.
Edit: so far difference is noticeable. More social, less anxious.
Ohohohoo I just scored one of these.
thaanak youuuuu
(either it goes into the bedroom and the old bedroom TV becomes my retro console tv since that's what it was always set up for being as it has UHF inputs (just moving from the bedroom to my office), or it goes in my office as my retro console TV)
Good night everyone ๐๐๐
