From every account I’ve heard (including my own) it depends on how high the dose and for how long you were taking them. In my experience going cold turkey was pretty similar to quitting nicotine, the first two weeks being the worst but everything after that being much easier. You can expect to get occasional zaps for a long ass time after that. I will occasionally feel something and go “wait was that an ssri zap?” even two and a half years off lexapro.

It depends on how high your dose was and it can vary from barely perceptible and infrequent to nauseating and near-constant. Tapering off can help make it less intense but at some point theyre going to be unavoidable. SSRIs are ass.

You are enough as you are now and you should be kinder to yourself.

Now for some suggestions:

Regarding glasses I suggest getting two pairs, if possible, for the purpose of redundancy. If one is broken or gets lost having a second pair will prevent it from becoming a catastrophe. One of those pairs should be fun. Fun can mean a lot of things, it can be an interesting shape or an uncommon color or something else. There are guides out there about matching face shape to lens shape but its all up to you, trust your judgement.

Accessories! 4th Reich dudes dont really go around with bracelets and necklaces, and they tend to avoid piercings. If you want to get your ears pierced its inexpensive, the aftercare is easy and the healing process is quick, plus there are a zillion options for earrings. If you’ve ever considered something more adventureous like a brow piercing or what have you, go for it! It can be a very liberating experience.

Pins are very explicitly state where you stand and what you believe in. Its extremely rare to be challenged for whatever pins youre wearing and it is very common to recieve compliments over them. I can personally attest that many trans people notice, and greatly appreciate it when people wear symbols that indicate their allyship.

I also think that you (and many others) would benefit from developing a personal sense of style. Confidence in the way one presents themselves translates into confidence in general. It’s easier than you might think, although it takes time and a little effort. I have some pointers on that if youre interested.

Addendum: yes also wearing masks is a pretty strong signal AND they serve a practical purpose. Its really nice basically never getting sick.

This game is so fucking sick. Its got overpowered mech fun stuff but when you’re playing one of the lighter units you really get a feel for just how vulnerable you are, its awesome. There is an accompanying novel (havent read it, sounds cool though). To the people who are considering it: note that it is not a twin stick shooter, but rather meant to be a vehicular combat game. The direction the vehicle is facing (hull, turret, legs, ect) matters a lot and some people have found this aspect to be unexpected and frustrating.

I think that we could have a really nice time playing stuff on tabletop simulator. Just an idea.

I have no idea, sorry.

Letting sliced tofu marinade in an acid like vinegar or citrus juice (plus a little salt and seasonings) will make the inside deliciously bright and tangy.

If you pan fry it you don’t need corn starch or anything, you just have to pat it dry before putting it in and be paitent.

At Aldi its like $1.75 or thereabouts but the tradeoff is that it has the worst consistency of any tofu I’ve ever seen. It is sold as “extra firm” but I’m not even sure if the silken - firm spectrum can even apply to this stuff. Great for making seitan, pretty meh for everything else. Don’t press it, that makes it angry.

Apparently the scoring system marks the losers as racist and the winners as right, this is meant to be a semiserious attempt at measuring bias. So yes actually given the highly biased nature of the questions themselves decent people who are serious about being antiracist will likely be labeled racists.

I was able to find more on it and you’re mostly correct. Some of it is pretty generic trivia questions, there’s stuff about crime statistics and then there are questions about shit like the average vaginal dimensions of various racial groups.

Hello i have a question from my cat gathered with much the same method - " p[’ "

Red Orchestra 2, there’s still some semi-active servers with plenty of bots out there.

My favorite part of linux news is that you get a headline like this and to 99.5% of the population it sounds like word salad but at the same time there’s at least 15 dudes who are going to be totally stoked by this.

The atmosphere and ballistics are the only things in Shadow of Chernobyl that aged even remotely well.

The canonical explanation for what the zone is and how it works is sorta dissapointing because running (incorrect) theory that the NPCs talk about is tight as hell “Oh yeah its a totally unprecidented organism brought about by people fucking with psychic energy in some secret experiments and btw it hates us and the emissions are its immune response and also the zombies and monolith dudes are basically the zone hijacking the nervous systems of other organisms to act as extensions of itself”

while the actual explanation is basically “Nah yeah after the meltdown a bunch of government scientists were like ‘yo lets do some fucked up experiments in the abandoned nuclear place’ and shit kinda got crazy with the genetic modification and it all went nuts after we tapped into the psychic field that surrounds the earth… so anyways we’re literally just five or so dudes hanging out in tubes of goo, we got a spot open if you wanna join the goo gang… please join the goo gang”

(though i may be misremembering/misinterpreting a lot of stuff here)

Not only is it normal, but as some other posters have mentioned, it is a good habit to be in. This may be a hot take but people should also look at their toilet paper after wiping and at their poop before flushing.

Crispix/Corn Chex with hot sauce added to the milk. Its savory and spicy and creamy and nice.

“Wash”

Was this machine translated from spanish?

If I had my way every domicile in human history would have one of these and a pair of decks.

As much as I want TiK ToK by Kesha to be a recognizable tune in half a millenia I know that’s not happening. Personal Jesus by Depeche Mode is one of the most covered songs of the past 50 years so that very well may become immortalized through diffusion alone. There’s a couple dozen jazz standards that could have that kind of staying power as well, especially considering their ubiquity in performance repitoires and books of sheet music.
