Eat dairy products
Paying the price for that today myself. Ate a big ass bowl of cereal last night while sleep walking. My sleeping self didn’t know to take lactaid… 🤢
Man here I thought I had it bad when I ended up waking up on the couch and a brand new bag of barbeque chips was gone.
sleepwalking me needs to stop pigging out.
Try eating cereal with Fairlife instead. Tastes almost the same as milk with no side effects. I didn’t know how much I missed cereal in milk until I had it
But why? The dairy industry does some truly evil shit.
Saaame. A sip of milk is like poison for me, 20 minutes later and I’m stuck in the bathroom for the next 4 hours.
I have minor lactose intolerance, and I drink coffee regularly.
I shit out diarrhea if I mix it with milk with lactose of any kind.
A functional pancreas. Worked perfectly fine for 27 years, then my body just decided it was evil. Super neat.
People existing in society in good faith. People who just want the world to be a better place to live, and aren’t willing to shove people down below them in order to get an edge.
I hope you have a good weekend, my friend.
The sad reality is that I’m going to be fine. I’m going to survive the turmoil and probably make money in the process, because I’ve been lucky before now. I worry for people that haven’t been lucky. I worry for people that have been lucky but happen to be the “wrong” race. I worry for my gay friends that are looking at fleeing the country as an easier alternative. I worry for my trans friend that already has fled the country.
The US has always had problems, sure, but nothing like this.
Oh look, a mirror

What the fuck?
I’m saying that your situation appears to be just like mine.
What crawled up your ass and died this evening?
I think people are misunderstanding your comment. There’s a saying “look in the mirror” which is used negatively when someone isn’t being self-aware. People are most likely taking your comment as a play of this idiom and it sounds like you are yelling at someone to be self reflective. It’s miscommunication
I’ve used that phrase many times before, and this is the first time I’ve ever gotten such a bizarre reaction.
Nah, because it’s communism /s
100% why I stopped engaging in activism.
You make a mistake and people always assume malice. It was too bad.
A measurable attention span.
Oh but it CAN be measured.
It is simply that value is too short for what you need it to be.
Wait, what were we talking about? /jk

I feel like long attention spans would also help out in other facets of life.
A brain that can produce a stable level of serotonin and not go haywire all because the seasons changed.
That and being neurotypical, my life would be much easier if I didn’t have ADHD
I feel you, although I’m not sure this counts as minor
It is minor. People that are neurotypical don’t even think about it and take it for granted. For them it is normal, so it’s not a big deal, they don’t think there’s a struggle there because they don’t struggle.
No allergies. Im allergic to dairy, eggs and most nuts. I’m not lactose intolerant, which I wish I had, because then I could be in the bathroom for a few hours instead of a hospital for a few days. So many things have milk in them, and the few things that don’t put eggs in them too. I can’t eat out.
I feel you. I’m allergy to all nuts (that are tested for) and soy. Dairy, eggs and nuts sounds like a shitty combination because a lot of the vegan stuff is nut-based.
Regular fucking eyesight
I’m not even asking for 20/20, I’m asking for eyesight that can be fixed by LASIK
Energy
Hypothyroid?
Nah fibromyalgia, life is hell
A loving family
My heart goes out to you, sweet stranger. ❤️
I was gonna write the same thing. You’re not alone on this one.
I’m so sorry, right there with ya
As in parents or spouse and kids?
Functional parents.
Mine are 80, and due to a lifetime of terrible decisions and this shitty country, are driving for DoorDash, in the car I “loaned” to them a year ago.
I love them, but it’ll be nice when the funeral comes, because at least it’ll be the last time they use me as an ATM.
I’m here with you. I’ve spent the last two years no contact with mine and undoing the damage they caused to me and my kid. The worst part is, they weren’t always like this and I’ll have to mourn the death of who they were long before I mourn the death of who they are.
I’ll have to mourn the death of who they were long before I mourn the death of who they are.
I’ve actually used almost this same exact phrase with one of my siblings who is also one of the “dependable ones”. The versions of my mom and dad I loved the most are long dead already.
a functioning democracy
Hah, that’s hard to come by for MOST people! I’m not even sure Norway is actually a democracy!

Executive function.
Normal vision.
was trying to figure out what the stats are on vision impairment, and found this:
A National Institutes of Health (NIH) study has found that although 94 percent of Americans aged 12 and older have good vision, the remaining six percent, or 14 million, are visually impaired.
So 6% of Americans are visually impaired, and of those, 3/4 can be corrected with glasses.
that is a fairly blunt assessment. ‘Correction’ is not a binary after all.
After cateracts surgery I’ve got 20/80 vision in my better eye. Technically both eyes.
HOWEVER.
I have no useable depth perception. The retina on my left eye is swiss cheesed with holes and scarring from birth defects. My right retina has a major deflection in it and I ‘won’ the lottery in having it detatch post cateracts surgery (a nominally single digit percentage chance of happening) and thus needed further surgeries to correct.
My eye sight is so bad I can only see 15cm in front of me correctly, and I can’t enlist in the army.
Mine is bad due to my genes, but not that bad. Sorry to hear it.
Hey, I can’t enlist in the army! That’s a good thing!
A very good thing, and one that’s getting better with each election, truly.
The thing that gets people to get out of the house and do things with other people.
Not like a vehicle, or transportation but the other thing
I’m a shut-in and I’ll say it doesn’t help living in a sparse area with only a bike*. I usually just ride on the trail to a very close bridge, sometimes I go to the closest town over and buy a few things from the produce section from the local grocery store and that’s it.
Admittedly, I probably still wouldn’t be very social in a denser place (money, but also other issues).
* I don’t want to drive, though lots of ditches around here and there is no north/south trail. So it is a factor.
Oh I got one of those too i need the thing that gets me out of the house. Like a thing that makes me leave the house to go do
I wish I didn’t have this giant penis.
Well spit it out
I’m constantly tripping over mine
