    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.

          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:

            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.

              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 robots

                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

              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.

            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.

    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.

        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.

    I read the title as 'I hate Covid-19 Now And it Fucking Sucks: AMA' and I was ready to come in and be like, shit, me too dude. Solidarity.

    No questions, just hope you are able to rest up and recover quickly.
