    I know people with kids and they always seem like they are perpetually exhausted and barely hanging on. They talk about not sleeping and conflicts and issues and it just honestly makes it sound horrendous and really looks like they are all suffering from an outsider’s perspective. But then they tell me that it’s worth it because it’s “fulfilling” like you said. I don’t know. From an outsider’s perspective, parents’ words don’t seem to correlate with what I see and hear.

    I have a feeling that when people talk about things being “fulfilling” or “worth it” despite seeming to objectively be suffering must be some combination of strange hormones with coping mechanisms.

    Idk. That’s just my thoughts as a confused outsider. I’m happy that people are able to raise children. Someone has to. But I don’t think I could make myself suffer to that extreme for a being that will never truly understand what you’re doing for them until decades later.

    Goddamn you guys are the most paranoid people I’ve ever witnessed. What in the world do you think mega corps are going to do to me for babbling incoherent nonsense to ChatGPT?

    No, it’s not a substitute for a real therapist. But therapy is goddamn expensive and sometimes you just need to vent about something and you don’t necessarily have someone to vent to. It doesn’t yield anything useful, but it can help a bit mentally do to do.






  • Yes and no. It just depends where along your GI tract the cancer is.

    If the cancer is further up in your colon, the bleeding can turn your poo a dark color. BUT if you have cancer near to the “exit hole” (in your rectum or anus), it absolutely can involve bright red bleeding.

    Also fun fact. Eating a metric fuckload of blueberries will also make your poo very dark lol. Found that out one day and I mildly scared the crap out of myself before remembering what I ate. Beets can also give you some fun colors.






  • Idk…I slept through history class in high school because I just didn’t give a shit about the class. It just wasn’t a subject that interested me and I was a sleepy kid lol. I don’t blame the teacher for not being engaging enough. I just wasn’t interested in the subject like I was with my science classes. I still did fine in school too even though I slept through quite a few subject haha.
