It's been raining for a couple days and I was driving to get dinner when a Cybertruck pulled up behind me.
Thankfully I was near a freeway entrance and someone else got between us to get to the turn on. The two places you don't want to be on the road is behind a log truck and in front of a Cybertruck.
Watching Hawkeye again and I realized why Rogers: The Musical knows about "I can do this all day". Antman is in the musical, and he was only at the battle because of the time-heist. Which means the fight between Cap and "Loki" (future Cap) would have been in the SHIELD files, and the SHIELD files all got dumped online.
Which means the musical's creators went through the dumped SHIELD files on the battle of New York, saw the security cam footage, heard Cap say that and were like "AHA! Catch phrase! We are using that shit!"
Decided to try that split sleep thing. So last night at about 830ish I started to flag so went to bed, was probably asleep in an hour. Woke up at 430AM. Which is more than I usually get in a night already. Faffed around for an hour and then fell asleep again and woke up at 830.
It usually takes me three nights to get that much sleep, it feels weird. Good weird, but weird.
Every US president/hopeful will send military support to Israel!!!
Trump? Would send more. Bernie? Yup, he'd send them too. Vermin? No doubt.
The US *system* will never allow a president to not send Israel support. The US *system* needs Israel to keep killing.
The frak do you think the school protests are about? Why do you think the police move against every free Palestine protest no matter how peaceful? Because they all are tied to Israel. Blaming Biden for US support of Israel is like blaming Biden for gas prices. Overly simplistic and myopic and already widely proven wrong.
As a several decade Rennie, corsets are amazing for women above a B-cup. Lift and back support in one. But you have to get the right corset. I have seen women suffer from their corsets, I have seen women run a camp kitchen for 250 in a corset. I have been through friends making custom corsets for themselves a dozen times, I know the people selling corsets at Trek cons and renn faires. I know what vendor to go to in LA for stays. I am debating getting a men's style corset for myself simply for the core support and to stop myself from moving wrong and jacking up my already unhappy lower back
It can take a while to get used to, but they have several advantages over bras.
Had a 'fun' new experience today in the form of my first ever mammogram because I found a lump on my chest a few weeks ago, and when you find a lump, you get that shit checked out.
Ironically, the lump I went to get investigated turned out to be nothing, likely just a cyst that made its way to the surface, but they did find something else on the scan that requires me to do a follow-up ultrasound in six months. The doctor stressed that it is most likely a fibroid, but given my family history of breast cancer and general weird health fuckery, they're being vigilant and keeping an eye on it.
The mammogram itself was fine. The technician doing it kept complimenting me on the "pliable" nature of my breast tissue and how easy it was to smoosh me into the machine. I was like thanks, I have Ehlers Danlos Syndrome; my body is basically made of only slightly more reinforced laffy taffy.
She said, "That explains that," and then proceeded to smush my tits into a pancake. Apparently, they were the most compliant tits she's worked with. I said thank you because what else can you do in that situation. And then she asked me if I wanted to know how much they weighed, and I said boy, do I?!
So she started reading off the results and was like, "17.7 lbs," and I was like, gosh, no wonder they feel so heavy, and then she kept talking and said, "And the other one weighs..."
And that's when I realized she didn't mean total.
She meant one boob was 17.7lbs.
So in case you've ever wanted to know, my right boob weighs 17.7 lbs, and my left one weighs 17.3 lbs, bringing the grand weight hanging off my chest to an even 35 lbs.
The tech was like "gosh! That's a lot for someone of your size!" and I was like "ya fucking think?!"
For a frame of reference, I weigh 136 lbs total. One-quarter of my weight is tits.
I am one-quarter titty.
And I'm telling that to the next doctor who suggests I lose weight.
Anyway. Remember to do regular breast exams, and don't be afraid of mammograms. Yes, they're checking for cancer, but they also tell you fun things like how much your chest weighs and whether or not your boobs are compliant.
