I can't read this, I'm already fossilized.
Oh God.
Revengeance is in 2018.
Oh God.
And it's still probably a better future than our 2020.
Yep. He’s literally just the cartoon evil of Mitch McConnell but toned down a little.
And Presidents randomly molesting people.
Federal Hall!
MGS2 is literally about a one term president trying to make America great again by getting revenge on the Deep State and freeing the world from the grip of globalist in Wall Street. It really does feel like we live in a simulation and the DM got bored.
But instead of one super AI being thwarted from its aim of writing our cultural narrative via controlling the content we see on the internet, we've got a bunch of stupid algorithms optimizing "engagement" (outrage) or "watch time" (ad revenue) do that exact thing.

Nothing quite like yawning and having your side cramp up... 
I've found that your 40s is when you start saying "oof" a lot more when you stand up.Nothing quite like yawning and having your side cramp up...
oh yeah, 40s is definitely the "complimentary ache" age; I've developed plantar fasciitis since summer, wooooo!
I've noticed myself doing this a lot more frequently in the past few months, and I'm still in my 30s.
Bodies: never not terrible!
Corporeal forms were a mistake!
I developed plantars one time after playing a basketball game in sandals. It was a miserable experience, and I'm sorry you've got it.
Mine just...showed up one day, after a camping trip this summer. Figured it would have faded after a bit but it's been months! So now I need softer supportive shoes, which is going to be at odds with the hard orthotic inserts with felt pads I have to wear for the foot pain from my flat-ass feet. I don't know if I'm going to have to alternate based on what hurts when, or what.
Yay, aging!
Yay, aging!
I suffered from plantar fasciitis for over a decade, but largely have it under control these days. What made the difference for me was buying a pair of Crocs to always wear around the house. I wouldn't be caught dead in those things normally, and I hide them when company comes, but the giant thick rubber soles were just what I needed, I guess. What used to be near-constant pain for me is now pretty much entirely gone. Now if I could just say the same about my chronic back pain...
There's an idea. I have a pair of sandals with gel soles that I've been wearing for the last week that have helped a bit, maybe I'll look into Crocs. So far it's only the right foot and I'd prefer to keep it that way, but I also don't want to backslide on the arch/ball pain I had before, so.
Don't be ashamed of your crocs! Like, yeah, don't wear them to a wedding or on a date. But if anyone flames you for prioritizing comfort and especially healing in or around your own home, they are butts who are smelly and dumb.
Oh it's ME who hates Crocs, they are ugly and I hates them; that is the barrier I must climb
Crocs are formal wear afaik
Same. I wouldn't go within a mile of these things if I didn't have to.

My wife gets to buy a walker so she’s super jazzed about doing that thirty years ahead of schedule.
