Is it affecting your smell/taste and if so, does that effect your 7 deadly fetishes
(Hope you get better soon)
I had a friend pick up some Wendy's for me and I had a bite of the fries and thought to myself, "Wow these taste like ass" then I had tried washing it down the a Sprite and I once again thought to myself "That shit also tastes like ass" then I put two and two together and got tested for Covid and it came out positive, (btw there are no testing clinics open cause rapid tests are no longer being sent out to my area :blob-help:) taste and smell are fine but I'm extremely congested
Also no this is NOT one of the 7 deadly fetishes, for I am not dead therefore it is not a fetish.
-7DeadlyFetishes
Damn that sucks :C glad you didn't totally lose your taste and smell
I'm still young enough where the major onset Covid effects won't affect me too bad, where I'm fearful is what's going to happen to be later down the line, when I'm like 60; bad lungs, balding, will I go sterile, some werid fucked up shit behold my wildest dreams? fuck if I know, hoping for a quick and speedy climate heat death :agony-mescaline:
-7DeadlyFetishes
when I’m like 60 ... balding
I should have been so lucky. My hair was thinning in my 20s. And when I was in my early 30s - I started shaving my head.
Family genes are on my side, nearly everyone on my dads side kept a full head of hair well into thier retirement.

My mom's cousins went bald young. They were about 10 and 15 years older than me. And I look a lot like them. When I was a kid and a teenager I thought it was sort of hilarious that they wore baseball caps to hide their baldness. It wasn't quite so funny once I noticed my hair thinning a bit in my early 20s.
Not all revoltuionaries need a full head of hair like good guy castro :Fidel-deke: after all lenin was bald :lenin-cat: :shrug-outta-hecks:

whether climate death or pandemic death, the earth is definitely trying to get rid of us lol
the earth is definitely trying to get rid of us lol
I know this is anti-Marxist but I got into idealism as a framework for metaphysics and to cope with impending climate collapse I like to tell myself that this Earth is essentially kind of like a videogame for whatever weird spiritual force underlies material reality and humanity was sort of flawed from the start and this particular instance of material experience is just slated to end to clear the way for something new
there's literally zero evidence that we're not just meat robotsThis is my shit.
We might ultimately be dreams, but may your dream be ever resonant and lucid.
Idealism is pretty cool. It would not entirely surprise me if it turned out to be true, supposedly (SUPPOSEDLY) at the current boundaries of physics shit gets weird enough that it's shaking a lot of the physicalist view of reality. Ever since I started reading about it I started having crazy ass dreams and I feel like weirdly disconnected from things sometimes, though that might be related to my mental problems more than anything. I had a really bad spat of death anxiety a while ago and at one point I was sitting in my living room and I got so freaked out I suddenly kinda felt everything zoom out and I felt this weird sensation of being an alien observer to this hyperdream (probably what really bad dissociation feels like) and it was so weird
At the end of the day I tend to think that there is no God and this is all meaningless but baseline reality is already so fucking weird I really feel like there's got to be something more to it than just bits of matter

There are a couple paradoxes of our existence as we know it that remain no matter how well we model the universe. And in some cases, as our models get better, we run into more things that we're at a loss to explain.
I think we'd be a lot better off if we got a lot more comfortable saying "I Don't Know" to things, and leaving room in our worldview for the unknown, instead of insisting that we can make up a story that explains everything. Having everything explained can be quite burdensome.
Both were created by capitalism (industrial agriculture and urbanization bring humans into closer contact with animals, increasing instances of zoonotic diseases), its not earth that's trying to kill us, it's capitalism.
Hopefully your senses go back to normal, there's still a handful of food/drinks that taste weird to me a year after
:scared: Damn, critical support for your tastebuds.
-7DeadlyFetishes
Luckily in my case it's all unhealthy shit lol, just a couple types of soda and what I assume was the sauce in some fast food. I suppose it's still technically nerve damage or whatever so, you know, don't get that
Considering how I think Soda tastes like ass, at least not much changes with covid
In all seriousness, get well soon comrade :meow-hug:
You took the aerosolized red pill; soda and Wendy's both naturally taste like ass.
Just me, myself, and I is stuck in the dorm room, there's supposed to be helper delivering food to my door in the morning, lunch and dinner which is nice though.
-7DeadlyFetishes
It's neither a fetish and I ain't dead yet, so not it is not a deadly fetish.
-7DeadlyFetishes
:ohnoes:
Do you think if covid was covid21 it would have been called black jackvid?
Na it would be sipping on an ice cold corona bear cause i'd be legal age :wink:
(sorry for the shitty pun but it's better than a toilet paper/tiger king joke, right?)
-7DeadlyFetishes
No questions, but I do hope you recover swiftly buddy, sorry to hear that
You should put half an onion in your sock. It's not gonna do anything, but its something to do.
Trick question, anwsering this either yes or no will give narrow down the fetishes.
-7DeadlyFetishes
You don't have to name the fetish, you could just say "the fifth" or "the third" or something
The fetishes cannot be revealed, not matter what.
-7DeadlyFetishes
I won't be answering this question.

Might catch up on some Chapo/Blowback, and try to find if a local library has this book called "big trouble" about a major labor upset in coeur d'alene that resulted in Roosevelt deploying the national guard to squash the rebellion, it's local history and labor history, should be a good read if I can find a physical copy, will try calling local libraries and the university library.
-7DeadlyFetishes
there's a film adaptation of that book relating specifically to chinese magicians in the immigrant labor community
I didn't know that existed! What's the title?
-7DeadlyFetishes
You lied to me :gui-better: get in
-7DeadlyFetishes
Make sure not to accidentally get the "big trouble" by renowned fiction author david barry
I don't think he's old enough to be responsible but he's certainly not innocent
Although i adore Gary Larson many artifacts of current boomer humor can be traced back to him

Miami Herald collumist? :fidel-wut: that's some gringo shit, man.

Pod save America has a vast catelog to keep you occupied, or you could watch the Hamilton movie repeatedly and sing along…. Never gets old!
I have nothing really to add other than sorry, that sucks, and I hope you feel better :heart-sickle:
You having nothing to add on yet you comment anyways? Curious! :curious-marx:
-7DeadlyFetishes
Might sound boring but I like going to the supermarket and buying werid snackfood item on the shelf and try it for a week, currently in love in a chip brand called Tim's, it takes all the good qualities of a lays chip and drop the salt and oil, truly a chip fit for a king.
-7DeadlyFetishes
Nah that's cool I'll have to check them out if they're around me.
Tim's is so good.
Their seasonal flavors are great, too. I think the one right now is cajun
Will consider looking for this one when I'm out of the ward.
-7DeadlyFetishes
Sorry to hear it comrade, hope you get better :soviet-heart:
For my question: Would you rather be able to speak to and understand every human language on earth, or be able to speak to every animal?
Thank you for the get well comment, and to answer your question, which took some time to think about.
I think i'd like to know every human language, animals are cool, had I chosen the later I would like to make a voyage to that gated community and thank the capybara's there for doing praxis, but the ability to speak all languages of the human tounge sounds fascinating. Not to go all Anthony Bourdain/"white guy with dreads who goes on solo-backpacking trips through South America" on you, but people everywhere have stories the rest of the world will never hear, to have the opportunity and connect with people in their native language and hear the clearest description of thier lives, their joy, and thier hardships would be gift worth having. It sucks that being "Worldly" is an activity that bougie CEOs, life coaches, and new age weridos have all co-opted to justify thier shitty grifts/selfishness, exploring the world and meeting new people should be an experience shared by all, not just the few.
-7DeadlyFetishes
This is such a beautiful answer. Being able to experience all of humanity like that is tough to pass up, but I'm often drawn to the animal power. You'd be the best biologist on the planet for every species, able to unlock secrets about the natural world we've never known the answer to (although, I doubt the conversation would be nearly as dense as a human conversation). From a practical perspective, you could become like the animal kingdom's Lenin, encouraging the liberation of animals used by the police and military and teach factory farm animals how to escape their confinements and overthrow their masters (which can't possibly backfire, right?). Or at the very least you could get a bunch of birds to shit on Elon Musk 24/7 lol.

Covid? Both the initial and second dosage, but no booster shots like what's being discussed in the media sphere.
Total? I don't know, 6? :shrug-outta-hecks:

Cons of covid - long term health effects, no school, no socializing
Pros of covid - endless posting, infinite possiblities, Always online

Welcome to the club. Did you get your x-ray vision yet? (Oh wait we’re not supposed to talk about that).
But for real that sucks get better soon!
No but they did stick a stainless steel rod down my shaft, have no clue what that was about but they said I need to get tested again with a longer and girthier rod to see if the virus mutated in my system, not looking forward to it if I'm being honest. Thanks for the good wishes!

I ain't stupid, I know this is an AMA but I ain't answering that trick question.
