First stripper?

I'm hoping he went to that awesome music festival.

Mind you, if he did, I'm insanely jealous.

It’s been too quiet lately

Yes it has.

Although that may be for a number of reasons.

Hi-Bye!

Belated hello.

I was reading a news story about a woman with brain cancer who lived for 10 years, then died, then her son died of brain cancer shortly after.

Really uplifting stuff.

Can't sleep.

The news outlets make a point of mainly sharing the saddest stories

They also keep reporting to a minimum on things that are actually important or report one-sided and leave important info out idk why. shock value and hopelessness maybe
Stories about things ppl can actually change or do something about they keep to a minimum

Brain cancer runs in my mom’s family.

My mom is a doctor so she knows how all this works.

Her sister died of it then my mom got it but she is super into health nutrition etc because she is also a nutritionist

She participated in some study where they used some Amazonian bark supplement fr brain tumours
Along with all her other holistic stuff
Within a year or so when she went back fr her MRI in London the tumour had a hard casing /shell formed around it.

The dr was all ‘wow! This makes it easier to extract n it’s not as dangerous!’ They extracted it. It was at a base of nerves so there was inevitable damage (eg couldn’t use /feel one side of her body, one eye couldn’t blink n needed to be forcefully shut with tape , vertigo , brief paralysis etc) but thanks to the brain’s awesome capability fr neuroplasticity n the other stuff she was doing (holistic stuff) a lot of it went away. The brain learned to cope

Now a lot of stuff is back to normal n she can function fine
Now she is about to complete her ultrasound course so she can work

So just to offset the depressing stuff I shared that

It did make her more prone to anger/depression esp right after the surgery because the process is humiliating n dehumanizing
Eg drs don’t tell of the side effects or don’t believe you or support u fr it everything is an uphill battle etc


But that has more to do with how messed up the system is right now

Anyway life is more n more depressing

The only ppl who don’t cry about this world are psychopaths who thrive off the instability

Where can I get some Amazonian bark supplement

Oh let me ask my mom when she responds I will PM you

^ thanks.

I've been rejected for every study so far.

I’m sorry fr being such a smart aleck/unemotional sounding person
I don’t mean to invalidate ur pain
I just don’t like hearing u are depressed
Everything is messed up so it makes sense

My XH told me yesterday
of a family he n his friend are trying to help n they have 2 disabled kids
they can’t speak English etc no money (minimum wage — but it doesn’t pay fr much as they spend whatever they can on hospital treatments)


N I was so mad thinking ‘why do all the immoral evil ppl like lawyers who purposely rig things to make Even MORE $$ —even though they are already rich -
N basic things are denied in life to many ppl?’

I think a week’s pay check of my old lawyer was more than sufficient fr a few months of this family’s bills
He got 200 dollars just to reply one sentence to an email

Not even an enlightening useful sentence. Just something like ‘Will do. Regards.’ Boom! 200 dollars
