Ooh! Ooh! I know this one.

It’s a… it’s a… um, late for dinner? 🫣

It’s colloquially known as a Norman Door. It’s a subject taught in UX design classes in universities.

I understand. It is costly. I use it because of its potency and other ingredients. But I am open to suggestions for better products.

LMNT is awesome! Mango chili low key scares me. 😂

🤷‍♂️

Maybe? Maybe not. It’s expensive to test for, and cheaper to treat the symptoms. And I can monitor my vitals myself.

Okay, slightly exaggerated. More like I stopped peeing as frequently.

Salt causes water retention.

I’ve found that once I increased my salt intake (along with my water intake) my brain fog, dizziness, exhaustion, and pee went away.

Here’s my take: therapy only works if you give yourself over to it. That is to say, you have to be committed to take the advice that your therapist gives you, regardless of whether or not you (in the moment) believe it or not*.

You also have the right, and expectation, to push back. But, you have to do it in good faith. If you do the work, and take their advice, and it genuinely isn’t working for you no matter ho hard you try, tell them it isn’t working and what you’ve done.

I’ve been in therapy for almost 3 years now. It’s done wonders. But it’s been a long, difficult, and often painful journey. My therapist and I have had our moments. It happens. But we both kept at it, and I actually feel like a “normal” person for once.

Also: if you genuinely feel like you’re not connecting with your therapist, then don’t be shy about it. Let them know, and go find someone else. Don’t settle for someone just because you think you can’t do better or that you don’t deserve better.

* Obviously don’t do anything that would cause you or others harm.

I was making a joke about how the email was dated back in August 2025, and how it’s being posted now (for April Fool’s Day). The comparison being that the email talked about waiting on IPv6 adoption since 1998.

But you’re right that using IPv4 locally makes sense. Ain’t no way I’m trying to remember a 128-bit address.

Kinda like ipv6 adoption, huh?

This is what Apple translate had to say:

As someone with violent celiacs disease, i can appreciate the allure of something that could cure or alleviate a genuine gluten allergy. It would be absolutely amazing if it were to ever happen.

But anything coming out of this guy’s mouth is poison, and should be treated as such.

Sound advice. One minor suggestion.

Look at the founded part. It was Gregg Appliances in 1955. HHGregg in 2017. It’s about the timeline, Yugi.

You mean Gregg Appliances?

I see your Circuit City and raise you Service Merchandise.

A lot of older songs are super creepy by our modern standards.

Yeah, there’s the problem: American healthcare companies are more than happy to give sell you (overpriced) insurance.

It’s the paying for claims where they would laugh you back into reality.
