  • I feel like it’s just the opposite.

    Try designing something without instructions or a template. You’ll run into a thousand little issues you didn’t realize needed to be considered.

    That’s true of software, sure. But it’s also true if you want to make a wooden dresser without plans or build an rc airplane from scratch.

    In my experience, things are rarely as simple as they first seem.




  • Yellow 5 is super common (in the US) for things that go inside our bodies. Doritos, Mt Dew, probably Red Bull. When we were kids there was a rumor that it would shrink your dick haha.

    Read the ingredients on stuff the next few days and take note of how often you see it. It’s probably why they chose it as one of the test substances. It’s relatively safe to eat.

    What is unknown is how dangerous it is to absorb large amounts into someone’s skin.

    It’s like the illegal weed vape pen issue years ago. People would cut the product with vitamin e to thicken it and also make more money. Vitamin E is safe for human consumption. Turns out its vapor is terrible for lungs. It’s quite unsafe for that kind of consumption.

    Drink IPA without letting any air into your mouth and keep your tongue somewhat pressed against the roof of your mouth. It seems to block off the taste buds on top of the tongue and lets the beer wash around the sides of the tongue instead. This reduces the in-your-face bitterness and allows the secondary flavors to be noticed. At least that’s how I started appreciating IPAs.




  • If you can’t get pain meds I’d try Kratom.

    Start with a low dose and work your way up. If you take too much you will puke which would be awful in your current condition.

    Take the right dose and it will significantly relieve the pain. I slowly took increased doses until they started to make me feel a little woozy or get cold sweats. Then I knew my personal dose is a little less than that.

    I can’t stress enough though - take less at first and try a little more each time.

    Either eat food with it every time or take on an empty stomach every time, but don’t go back and forth unless you know your proper personal dose with and without food. It matters a lot with Kratom.

    All that said, do it right and it will bring more relief than anything else I’ve been able to legally acquire. Absolutely do not allow yourself to take it every day once the pain is manageable. Plenty of people do… But don’t do that.

    Good luck. No matter what - this is only temporary. You will get through it.
