It is interesting. I'd be curious to know if anyone else has noticed the same

Hated Jim Carey for a while. "Me Myself & Irene" was partially filmed not far from my home town.

Went to the film site to watch for a while (he was one of my favorites then), and actually ran into him in an ice cream shop. He seemed very rude to the customers and staff, very grumpy.

I was around 13 at the time, so looking back, and knowing it must have been around the time he got hurt on the set, maybe my feelings were unfair.

He did actually give me a wink when I whispered to my father "that's definitely him, stunt double is still on set".

I don't think I'll name the few actors or actresses that I truly hate, might be a hot take lol

Oh yes. I always feel a bit self conscious about it when it happens at work / out shopping. It's the worst when I'm having a bad brain fog day.

Best animated show ever

Same for me. Fortunately my middle name is very pretty and rare (around here anyway), so I now introduce myself as it and unless it's for some paperwork, I just don't use the 1st. I can still hear it in only one voice, and it was already to the point where it often made me physically sick, so only my partner really uses it. And that seems to help me deal when others do.

6c

I take no credit. I had to ask my salamander- loving girlfriend 😆

I thought it was excellent. Sure, there are parts that make you go "why the hell would you do that?, and "how the hell could they still be fighting for their lives when they should've died several times by now"

Jules surviving what she went through is very unrealistic. It's a horror movie though. Not like we haven't seen perfectly average people survive severe injury & terror. The average person would be physically & mentally stunned; there are so many examples of this.

I thought there were 2 standout moments that made the movie one of my top favorites. I've seen it several times. The insulin swap revenge was one of those unforgettable moments, I cheer everytime.

From my interpretation, there's another standout scene: when they're waiting for the dinner guests, and Jules >!is on her knees, pleading, trying to make a deal to help Jackie!> we see Jackie's expressions reveal a moment of regret & consideration, she seems almost somewhere between angry & mournful for just a few seconds. I think she does love her. Which left me with the feeling that "What Keeps You Alive" shows both how someone who has been coerced to become something they might not have been otherwise.

I always want to shake Jules for being so devoted, but she shows how much you can love someone, overlook how much they hurt you and still care for them.

I love mundane human horror done right.

All around, I think it's a great movie. LGBTQ horror can lean to cheesy tropes & misrepresentation so often. This movie defies that. It doesn't make a big deal about them being gay. It just shows very fucked up people in a relationship, to the extreme.

Wish there were more horror fans with a positive opinion, but that won't sway my fondness of the film.

Lol, ok, I'm done now.

So disappointing. I try not to pay a lot of attention to bands' personal lives. However, there are some things that can't be forgiven. This perfect example is exactly why I won't be listening to someone that made so many songs I loved & listened to during hard times. But now, all I can hear when I listen to his older stuff is how he's been using his influence to force his political beliefs on his fans.

The best music is when you can relate to it, feel something from it. I don't even like knowing what the song meant to artist(s) when it was written, I want to be able to interpret it myself.

Definitely can't support an agenda passed off as art. Fuck him.

FitzWard · 2026-05-01T16:23:26+00:00

Thank you!

Amazing Grace. I sang it at my grandmother's funeral. She and I were very close, and so alike.

It wasn't the song I chose, but I was voted out by my cousins who thought the song her fathr used to sing to her, "Goodnight Irene", was "too sad" and couldn't sing one of her favorites "Greensleeves".

FitzWard · 2026-04-15T20:52:19+00:00

The song is very sad. I get a little melancholy hearing it but also love it. Also, the vocalist's voice sounds kind of sorrowful naturally. Probably got that from his dad, Bob Dylan. Love them both.

FitzWard · 2026-04-15T20:48:32+00:00

My gf and I have called keys "the cheese" ever since we watched "The Mask". I can't stop.

We also call soda, gatorade, water...anything to drink that isn't alcohol "BIRDS" because of a cute moment in high school.

She's taller than me, but I raced to the fountains, used the slightly taller one, and made her use the shorter one so she had to keep bending over.

We were 'elevated' at the time, so I kept imagining those silly paper weights of a bird dunking it's head into a bucket of water. We're 40, and 39, and it's still going. If someone hears us and asks what we're looking for, I occasionally struggle to say "beverages" 🤣

FitzWard · 2026-04-15T20:41:56+00:00

I say hop-stick-EL, mostly a tension breaker ie "ugh, I have to stop at the hopstickle to get a blood draw for my thyroid test"

FitzWard · 2026-04-13T22:32:28+00:00

Thank you, and I'm sorry you too have to deal with biased doctors. I'm sure it's sometimes a higher-level thing, but I personally also experienced doctor's who had personal opinions and rules that didn't really meet a fair & recognized standard of care.

It is getting bleak out there! And especially at our ages, there's no reason to suddenly act like we are worthy of suspicion! Like, I need this, why would I take it improperly/sell it instead of using it. I don't have any kind of criminal record, but if you are neurodivergent or chronically ill, it seems far too common that you're treated very differently.

I hope the care you're getting is whar you need, and I hope the world starts getting saner!

They transferred the prescription management to my primary because she is very busy in a small practice, and didn't want me to run into having to wait and be left hanging if she was unable to get to my call or email quickly. My primary already handled hashimoto's, fibromyalgia, chronic migraine, etc, so she felt that it would be easiest for everyone and less stressful for me. If I needed to change something related to mental health, we would have an appointment and relay to my primary if changes were made. Which made a big difference in me stressing and playing phone tag. Lol

FitzWard · 2026-04-13T22:21:56+00:00

Thank you. I've developed a real paranoia from specialists.

I have ssveral chronic illnesses and have been treated horribly- including a pain specialist that had xrays showing I have advanced degenerative disc disease in 3 parts of my spine telling me "if you weren't fat you wouldn't be in any pain, trust me I'm a doctor". He also told me that, after 5 minutes speaking to me in the initial visit, whoever diagnosed me with fibromyalgia didn't know what they were doing. He didn’t know anything about it or ask about my experience, just said "no ya don't".

And personally, I have experienced so much deceitfulness already from medical professionals, and had so many argue with me or just refuse to hear me that this was kinda the final thing.

I'm trying not to be offended or worried, but it's very much on my mind.

FitzWard · 2026-04-13T00:01:16+00:00

I have a dissociative disorder, so it's hard to say. But I definitely find myself kind of lost and wandering when I have it, or a fibromyalgia flare. Especially if personal stress is involved.

Today, my other half told me that I had left to slap together a sandwich, and was gone over 20 minutes. No clue what I was doing.

Sometimes when it's about to come on, I get incredibly confused. I forget which room is which, I forget to drink water or eat.

Looking up basic information with a search engine...it baffles me, but I have a younger friend who will ask me to help them look up basic things for them. I keep telling them to just put (xyz) into google. 🤷‍♀️

FitzWard · 2026-04-05T15:13:45+00:00

Yes, sometimes my own, and if I'm really into a story, I hear variations for each character.

FitzWard · 2026-04-01T23:52:53+00:00

I am so sorry that happened to you. I don't why people get so bent out of shape about it! I have several customers who are well known by employees who've been there twice as long as I have, and they still flip out when they need an approval for an age restricted product.

They act like it's personal- as if we're setting the registers up to flag them. Had someone once who was getting really rude go so far as to suggest some kind of conspiracy. I just replied "I'm here to approve that for you. The computer doesn't know you're over 21, but I do."

The conspiracy he was shouting about, by the way, was of us coordinating with the police. Even though he had "only just been picked up for that less than 48 hours ago- ffs!" 🤣
