In a sub designed specifically for them by their own employees, knowing that Bezos and Musk will be the only individuals to ever stress test the vessel? I'm sure that would go swimmingly. ๐Ÿ˜

Oh God - auto correct fucked me. I meant Mio. Like the concentrated drink mix that comes in small bottles that you can add to water.

Similarly, I used to think that alcohol, stress and caffeine didn't bother my sleep like everyone said it would (FYI I was working 2 jobs and raising 3 highschool aged kids at the time.) I thought I was sleeping fine.

Then through a multitude of life changes, my kids grew up and I was in a far better place. I also started wearing a fitness watch that tracks sleep quality, stress, etc. Turns out I'm not a super hero, I was just exhausted and passing the fuck out and not recognizing (because I didn't have other options) how much it had effected me.

Now I rarely drink, not because there's anything wrong with it but because I have a visual record of the stress it causes my body and have come to recognize that I do actually sleep better without it. That said, as menopause is creeping up on me I've tracked hormonally related sleep challenges. After months of experimentation, 2.5-5mg indica gummy and 1mg of melatonin within the hour before bed and I typically sleep like a baby. (Melatonin by itself leaves me feeling slightly groggy for some stupid reason, but this combo balances.)

I was too, until they changed the formula a year and a half/2 years ago? Started tasting more like Pepsi to me, not a fan. I can do Cherry Coke Zero on occasion, or if I've got a craving I'll do regular Zero with a squirt of orange Miso.

A friend used to say he was hung like a can of tuna.

You can still stack donuts on a can of tuna.

Yep - Garmin Venu 3 here. I just charged and it's telling me 15 days of battery, but with my use I'll probably charge it in 12-13 days.

I mean, it's hospice lol. I work with some of the most compassionate, respectful, and caring people I could ever hope to work with. We also tend to have a macabre sense of humor. ๐Ÿฅด

The hospital provides phones and has us use Teams for remote meetings and other communication. Official patient information is always recorded through Epic/Haiku. Since the majority of the staff is in the field, they'll use Teams to communicate throughout the day for staffing updates and to notify us of deaths - particularly helpful if you're me driving to the patients house and planning on giving them a massage lol.

That's a rather umm, muscular finger?

I work in hospice making home visits, and yesterday was a bad day. Sucks when you're out making visits and missing notifications about change in patient conditions and death notifications. Before Teams they used a paging system that was glitchy, but everyone understood it was shit so there was an additional level of contact to ensure workers got relevant info when needed. Yesterday half the day went by before people realized the system was fucked.

Depends on the size of the household, ages and activities of people living there. Plus depending on the product and storage, most expiration dates have some wiggle room.

It blows my mind that the whole anti-inflammatory market is just a bunch of pain relievers. WHERE DOES MY PAIN GO!?

Many medications have multiple effects, some more significant than others.
