Usually organic stuff is 2-4x more expensive around here, so my eyes tend to slip right over them.

A heart attack is a damaging lack of blood flow to the heart. This is very often caused by your heart beating wrong (or not at all) but can have many other causes. It’s also important to note that the heart largely does not receive oxygen from the blood inside it; it has its own set of blood vessels on the outside feeding it. Therefore you can have a heart attack even though the pumping portions are completely clear.

It’s possible for the blood flow to be slowed so far by blockages that your heart starts taking damage, yet still struggles on for five days. Definitely not a common scenario, but it does highlight just how varied and uneven heart attack symptoms are. Which just makes the whole thing that much scarier in my opinion.

Heartburn is a type of pain usually caused by acid reflux, but can be mimicked by a heart attack.

I see it as a CNC for paper and similar materials. I steal my spouse’s at least once per year, often for making stencils for painting projects or for making layered lightboxes.

Yeah, I kinda assumed all elections from here on out will be like Russia: you can vote for whoever you want, but it won’t count and you’re going to get a visit afterwards.

I had to look this place up. I was not aware the federal government ran a theater. Is this something the president has any legal control over or is he just doing as he pleases?

Exact opposite from my grandparents. They keep it at least 27 in the winter. It makes it very unappealing to visit, and I have to take frequent breaks outside in the snow.

I assumed that was all old people, since my spouse’s grandparents are the same. Now I’m hoping they’re the exception and most older people aren’t living like lizards in terrariums.

Gotta keep those superconductors running.

I was thinking the exact same. I feel wasteful in the summer for keeping it at 23 (73 F). I don’t think I could survive 26 in the winter. Maybe if I had never left Florida, but I doubt it.

I’m now imagining an ominous Vine boom everytime the shooter interacted with someone that day.

Definitely not the veterans I know, who wait months to receive middling at best medical care

I was going to say similar. Maybe their allotted benefits look attractive, but good luck receiving them in any useful timeframe. Even taking the article at face value, they have “absurd” benefits in theory, but get a fraction of them in practice.

Wow, you’re bringing back very specific memories from my childhood. I hope you’ve managed to heal somewhat and found things that make you happy.

There are definitely people who can’t handle it. It makes sense in a way; pretty much everybody will lose it once they start starving, so there’s definitely a line. Some people just have that line much closer. It seems like a physical tolerance, not really a psychological or character trait.

My spouse is like that and can’t go more than 6 hours or so without food. I’m the opposite and can easily go more than a day without before getting cranky, but I assume that’s from a lot of practice as a kid.

That sounds even more stressful. Good luck!

Resin dice, novels, 3D prints, paintings, video games, wooden furniture, RPG scenarios. I have way too many hobbies and maybe two hours per week to work on them, so in reality I create very little. But making something physical is incredibly helpful for keeping the worst of my depression at bay.

I definitely didn’t read it that way from the post. I thought it was about your hobbies and creative interests. I guess you could infer social strata by whether the answerer has time and disposable income for hobbies. Some don’t require much investment, but it’s usually more than none.

Is this an already published book? Or are you releasing it concurrently with the audiobook?

Maybe they’ve never seen the original? It is a bit deep fried here, but that would still make me feel old.

Absolutely. My spouse looks at me like I’m crazy for putting black blankets on the floor in front of all the south-facing windows, but it’s a noticeable difference in those rooms. I also keep the leftover pasta and kettle water out until it’s cooled down instead of dumping hot water down the drain. Helps to avoid running the humidifier too.
