Listen. I JUST had a kidney stone and it was worse than period cramps my dude person. My fellow human. Please please please pleeeeease. Drink straight water too. I do not wish that pain on ANYONE. Ever. It landed me sweaty, in ER, silently screaming and twisting in the bed, and hyperventilating. Like BamSara, please, be be be careful. I never hit a lvl 10 pain scale and I genuinely thought I was going to croak. I don’t wish that kind of PAIN on even my worst enemy. For real.
And I have health insurance but my bill was 2,300-ish $$
I’ve cut back on coffee and Dr Pepper… I’m also 32 so I dunno if age factors into that
I have both great and terrible news: I have already had kidney stones slkdhglksdhgsd
I had 8 of them, and one of them got stuck in the tract for a while. I thought it was P Cramps too and since it was late at night/early in the morning I decided to see if I could wait it out (plus also hospital is expensive) and so I ended up doubled on the floor, curled up and sobbing in pain near some of my own vomit completely unable to move
Finally went to the ER after 6 hours of agony and they were like 'why didnt you come earlier' and 'welp theres nothing we can really do outside of manage the damage and give you some strong painkillers and morphine'
But yeah anyone who's reading this don't be like me, kidney stones are very painful. Still drinking this cup tho

I love how in most comics when Scrooge has some kind of beef with Magica, Beagle Boys or Rockerduck it's just silly goofy shenanigans and then there's Flinty whipping out guns, straight up threatening people with death and kidnapping children lmao
That's also why it's so strange to me that both Ducktales made him a regular day-to-day antagonist. Especially DT17. I mean look at him! Like sir this is a dangerous maniac. (love him though)
It'd be so cool to have a few episode buildup to an "oh shit it's Glomgold"moment, kinda like they did with Magica. But alas! 😞

Holiday retail shifts this year are turning me into an unironic hallmark villain. Something uniquely wrath inducing about getting snapped at over 30 cent discounts while the radio blares songs about it being the most wonderful and peaceful time of year. If anyone comes within my vicinity with any song that has the words merry jolly christmas reindeer snow or bright in them or has that obnoxiously twee sounding singing that's like 50 years old or sounds like frank sinatra or has nasally small child singing I'm going to beat them with a lamppost. If they play any iteration of 'my favorite things' again I'm committing arson. I'm reaching the end of my rope. I look at the calendar and there's still two more weeks to go

so yesterday i felt myself falling back into the chronic sickness that always manages to find its way back to me. i've been drinking a fuck ton of water and taking vitamins in hope that i could stay ahead of it, but i don't think it's enough. it's been almost a year since it's popped back up, and i was hoping I could make it but it's slowly creeping up and i'm feeling worse and worse and if this lands me in the er i think i will cry i literally can't afford that mentally rn ):
