Fever is a hilarious immune response. Our bodies tell the disease “hey, wanna see which one of us dies of overheating first? No? Too bad.” and honestly they’re not even the winners a decent chunk of the time but it works often enough that we never evolved it away or anything. Fantastic work.
Still feels weird that the same band made “You’re Gonna Go Far, Kid” and “Pretty Fly (For A White Guy)”
It’s like if Smash Mouth and Fall Out Boy were one band.
The Offspring are honestly a contender for the funniest punk band ever, made even funnier by the fact that Dexter Holland is pushing 60 now and has a PhD in virology.
Like imagine being on an academic committee and reviewing a dissertation on HIV protein-encoding genomes and it’s from a guy with frosted tips whose greatest legacy is the Crazy Taxi soundtrack.
That’s the Offspring.
We’re talking about the hilarious band that is Offspring? Good, I have things to say:
1. I have their albums on vinyl and on the record they’ll say stuff like “yeah, just lay back and do nothing”, or “wow that song was amazing”, and it comes out of nowhere.
2. Saw them live this year; 30 minutes before they get on they’ll have a big count down with a gorilla shooting shirts into the crowd with a bazooka. They have kiss cams, dance cams, drink cams etc. They do quizzes. It’s mayhem.
3. Speaking of their live shows, their playlist during the wait consisted out of the Spice Girls and Darude Sandstorm. That’s not a joke.
4. They pride themselves on the fact they are not a serious band. Nothing about them is taken in serious context. They don’t need to. They’re Offspring.

i have naturally acidic sweat. it’s a family thing
we have already. They don’t know exactly what is up with it, other than the sweat being slightly more acidic than normal and the acidic mantle being thicker and Way more acidic than normal, but it doesn’t seem to have anything to do with acidosis. As far as we have tested, our family has had this since at least my great grandpa, and the guy lived to be 93 years old.
What the fuck.

Because in its younger days it used to have RGB lights:

Though I’ve long forgotten how to change the color settings
For years I would look at posts and questionnaires about neurodivergence that takes about being so focused on something that you forgot to eat and be like, “Couldn’t be me. Being hungry is so uncomfortable! Your stomach is growling and cramping? How do you ignore that?”
Then someone informed me that neurotypical people have a whole bunch of “hungry” sensations before they get to that point…..
They what
Yeah, I don’t get it either, but apparently this is a Whole Thing…. Like they somehow detect blood sugar dropping and go, “Ooh, time for lil snack!”
See also: there is a feeling of “oh, I need to pee” that happens before “fidgeting around in my seat to finish this thing before running to the bathroom”
I read this and was like, “this can’t be real” and then I looked for sources and like–
“This can be very harmful for neurodivergent people, as many neurodivergent people struggle to feel internal cues and bodily sensations, including hunger and fullness. An emphasis on “only eating when hungry” can result in neurodivergent people delaying eating until they are so hungry that they are shaky, highly irritable, or even on the verge of passing out. A focus on “stopping when full” may cause neurodivergent people to overthink every bite they take and scrutinize whether they are truly hungry or truly full.
To modify Intuitive Eating for neurodivergent people, it may be important to focus on eating enough and eating consistently throughout the day, rather than eating according to one’s hunger and fullness cues. Neurodivergent people may need more of a structured meal and snack schedule than neurotypical folks in recovery, as well as some guidelines around a minimum amount of food. This does not make their eating less intuitive or their recovery less real - it is an important way of honouring their body’s needs and unique ways of functioning.”
WHAT??????
what the fuck
… stomach cramping isn’t the first sign of hunger? Is this why so many people eat more than one meal per day?
