  • Can confirm. I also fainted once after donating blood. They used that stuff on me. The tv does get it right this time. It works very quickly, and is similar to getting a big whiff of ammonia. Pungent, sharp, yet kind of the same feeling like when your nose suddenly clears if you have a cold and can breathe again.

    Edit: lol, I didn’t know they were actual ammonia. Go figure. I’m trying to not light up the room so scrolled past the image at first.




  • Long time headache adventurer here.

    You are basically making a homemade Excedrin (acetaminophen + aspirin + caffeine). Stimulants cause your body to metabolize the pain reliever more quickly.

    As for if you’re ruining your liver, I can’t say, other than you should probably go see you doctor and ask for a blood panel/ liver function test. Even if your liver values are normal, you’ll know for sure, and have a baseline to compare future tests against. Plus your doctor may have some thoughts on why you’re having a headache everyday.

    For me it turned out that while i had acceptable blood pressure, it was high “for me”, and a beta blocker took care of the most frequent headaches. But we didn’t figure that out until we had ruled out a whole bunch of other things.

    It was a frustrating journey to be sure. I wish you luck in yours.









  • 30ish years ago, I burned my own screens using this red film that you would cut with an xacto knife and peel off the parts you didn’t want. Omg it was so tedious. We were manually doing the job of a modern Cricut.

    About 5 years ago I wanted to do a project but no longer had any of my old gear. Bought a screen online and for sure bought the upgrade for them to burn the art on it for me. So worth it. I was so tickled that that service even existed.
