  • First, I do NOT work in IT or anything like that. But I seem to be the most tech savvy of all my coworkers. Occasionally one of them will ask for help and I’ll fix something for them. Sometimes one of them will comment that I am good with computers or something. Honestly, I figure things out just by clicking on everything. I think sometimes people are too afraid to click too many things for fear of breaking stuff, but there’s not a whole lot that can go catastrophically wrong imo. I tend to just click shit until I figure out what to do.

    Goddamn you guys are the most paranoid people I’ve ever witnessed. What in the world do you think mega corps are going to do to me for babbling incoherent nonsense to ChatGPT?

    No, it’s not a substitute for a real therapist. But therapy is goddamn expensive and sometimes you just need to vent about something and you don’t necessarily have someone to vent to. It doesn’t yield anything useful, but it can help a bit mentally do to do.






  • Same here. I remember about once a year growing up the school would have a day or so dedicated to the topic. I remember once as a pre teen my mom tried to give me a book on puberty for some reason. I found it embarrassing so I never read it but I never felt I needed to. The school’s teachings were sufficient.

    Iirc as a younger kid they focused a bit more on changes to your own body. And then as I got older, they got to talking more about the physical act of sex.




  • Yes and no. It just depends where along your GI tract the cancer is.

    If the cancer is further up in your colon, the bleeding can turn your poo a dark color. BUT if you have cancer near to the “exit hole” (in your rectum or anus), it absolutely can involve bright red bleeding.

    Also fun fact. Eating a metric fuckload of blueberries will also make your poo very dark lol. Found that out one day and I mildly scared the crap out of myself before remembering what I ate. Beets can also give you some fun colors.



  • Somehow I’ve never actually fainted but I’ve had near fainting episodes tons of times. Literally every single time I’ve been too embarrassed to say anything to anyone or take immediate logical action bahaha! One time when I was a teen at dance class I started feeling that way. Decided to excuse myself to the bathroom. As I was walking down the hall, my vision went black and I had to literally feel for the bathroom door. No idea how I made it in there without fully passing out but it’s funny how self conscious I am to do that. I sat on the floor for a few minutes before going back to class. 🙃
