  • I strongly suspect long COVID is a neuropathy issue. I suffered from it in a horrible way in 2020 and didn’t really get better until 2022 after treating myself with high levels of vitamin B9 and medicines for neuropathy such as cymbalta, or even better, Lyrica.

    I am now undergoing cancer treatment and I have fatigue and weakness for sure but NOTHING COMPARES TO LONG COVID.

    Yes. I have literal cancer and long COVID was worse. I am taking cymbalta because of how traumatic the fatigue and brain fog long COVID was and maybe that’s just really helping.

    Either way, I really hope you get better ASAP, please don’t give up!!!


  • Spujb is good people. I appreciate all the content you post.

    So in all honesty, I have been adamantly anti Taylor Swift since the moment I learned there was a new pop star, but this is only because I hate all pop stars and anything corporate. I appreciate the reminder to check yourself on misogyny though. That really does slip into our subconscious so easily.

    You know what hate brigade I am praying for? Dave fucking Grohl. I cannot think of a more neutral ass corporate shill.







  • I got married Monday at a Mexican restaurant. We decided Friday night, bought pawnshop rings on Saturday, and got the certificate on monday morning before work. My cousin is a universal life church minister so he signed it for us and our waiter was witness. As untraditionally romantic as this seems, it was one of the best days of my life.

    Last week I got the breast cancer diag, so hopefully this is more positive :)







  • I’d honestly love to know more about what it’s like to be an Israeli right now. I’m adamantly pro cease-fire and have always been pro “let people keep their homes” and anti-apartheid, but never anti-Israeli citizen or Palestinian citizen to be fair. In the US we talk a lot about our government being colonizers and how the founding fathers shouldn’t be praised and we try to find ways to honor stolen land, albeit, it feels performative since I certainly can’t just give up my home if someone’s ancestor came back and asked for it. Anyways not to try to point too many fingers, but hopefully just offer a glimpse of my own moral dilemmas that feel impossible, I’m just wondering what the perspective is for you all? Is the segregation discussed? Is the foundation of Israel controversial among Israelis at all?


  • Native vim? Or with an elaborate preference file?

    I personally have grown so accustomed to vim that if I have to ssh to a new (to me) server I would rather use stock vi (which in most systems is actually an alias for vim) to any other editor. But honestly I have made an alias for a script that ports over my elaborate vimrc file for every first login to a new server or instance lol. It makes me feel a little like a diva 💁💅
