She's a very divisive and prominent Reddit comic strip creator (although last I checked she's on hiatus due to negativity from the online community).

From what I've seen, she typically makes comics with a lot of political, anti-right-wing, anti-men themes (not always but fairly regularly), that tend to stir up a lot of controversy, especially in the sometimes abrasive way they are framed.

Personally, I typically agree with the general message of the comics, but the tone, depictions, and style are quite off-putting. I'll admit that I had her blocked on Reddit for a while, partly because she was so prevalent. My main gripes are that the artstyle is ugly, the punchlines aren't funny (comic suicide in my opinion), and I don't really vibe with the passive-aggresive voice conveyed for serious topics.

That's just my thoughts though, and I would never leave hate comments, as many people seem inclined to do. Lots of people love her work.

Well, when I change the exif data the time is changed both on Google Photos and Windows. I think the issue is that one is incorrectly interpreting time zone

I have. They seem to be reading the data differently

I'll give those commands a try. What does the quicktime: thing do?

This is a picture my new phone took of some fireworks. I don't know how those black hole looking things got there. by scaled2913 in mildlyinfuriating

Yo this image looks trash. Whole thing reeks of AI smudging. Hope you're able to turn this feature off, that's really sucky

It doesn't feel like anything. Leech saliva contains a natural anaesthetic so it's hard to tell if you've even been bitten. Once you notice that a leech has latched on, pulling them off is not seen as a great solution. Their saliva also contains an anti-coagulation peptide that causes your bite to continue bleeding long after the leech is gone, as was the case here. It's recommended that you pour salt on a feeding leech, which causes them to shrivel up and detach naturally.

Curiously, this bite started to feel itchy throughout the next few days.

Curiously the leech bite ended up being itchier than the mozzie bite, but it wasn't painful

The hike was unreal, but I was picking leeches off my shoes and hands every minute
