What's the temperature of the environment you're in? Heat/cold allergies exist, and can develop later in life.

EDIT: Or if you just wore an old wetsuit or something, close contact with mold/mildew can occasionally spark a reaction.

Weather app says 24°C right now (it's currently 10:33 pm here). It's also been somewhat colder overall, because rainy season just started and it's been raining every goddamned day since it did.

Alright, considering your local climate that should be fairly alright, but that said I do have a friend who breaks out in hives as soon as the temperature goes above 20 C.  ...and my dad, who gets hives if it goes below 12.

Not much to do except wait and see if/when it gets better.

I only get a really good workout if somebody else is around to set the pace and keep me on track. The "exercise" I've been doing on my own ain't shit.

Oh hey, relevant: I went to the gym today for the first time since September 20th, since my workout buddy is finally back from vacation and is here to kick my ass into gear.

Someone stole my shoes.

I can't find my focus. Everything is a distraction, from my jacked up shoulder to how bad my posture is when I sit so I don't bother it to the draft if the fan is on and the heat if it's not.

The way my wife's workplace treats her is starting to piss me off. Today is only the billionth time they've had her stay for twice the length of her original shift. Because things like "writing realistic schedules" and "hiring enough people" would just be too fucking much to ask.

From what she and her coworkers keep saying, it sounds like they're stuffing in as many residents as they can even as their manpower drops like a rock. If this is what I can expect from nursing homes when I get older, I'd rather my relatives take me behind the shed.

That, and the incidence rate of dementia has actually increased.

There is a healthcare crisis right now, with a large aging population, with a growing incidence rate of debilitating end of life mental health issues, and a lack of staff, and a lack of funding to properly secure that staff.

Our home is having the same problem.  We have taken quite a few "difficult" residents, and our staff is getting jaded and threadbare.

Behind the shed is where itisnotlogical confesses to Senpai.

Tremors are building up again. Wasn't sure if I noticed any reduction while I was on Propranolol, but now I'm off it again I'm thinking it probably was helping and I just didn't notice.

I am so tired of ads, whether on Youtube, Hulu, on the web, in magazines or papers or in the mail. I'm tired of them patronizing me like I'm stupid. No, putting shiny dolphins and shitty pixel art doesn't make me want to drink Fanta, and you can't "design an aria for an SUV" whatever the hell that means. Coopting the aesthetics of memes and the slang young people use doesn't make an ad any more appealing, it's condescending bullshit and I wish to God it would stop.

I was an adventurer too until I took a Pepsi to the knee.

I think it's been years since I last saw an advertisement, meatspace excluded.
