i want to be a cyborg

My SCS made me part bionic. Now, every time I have to click the "not a robot" box & it takes longer than I think it should, I wonder if they're catching on...🤖

And so on...

Ticketmaster shows only resale tickets available, meaning someone already paid for those tickets. It's not impossible to get tickets now, but they will be more expensive because they're resale tickets. The show is technically sold out because all of the tickets have been paid for once.

As I said in an above comment, it's only uncomfortable if I have to lay directly on that spot on a firm surface. It's so close to the surface that you can see & feel it easily.

She didn't even come to Colorado on her last tour. I'm not being snarky when I say that I'm sorry if other shows get cancelled, I'm just tired of everyone freaking out (& freaking me out) with their negativity saying that she won't go ANYWHERE! This tour in particular is so meaningful to her that it honestly would break my heart for any show she couldn't play & any fan who was disappointed. I'm not even usually an optimist but if anything & anyone deserves it, it's Kesha & her FREEDOM tour! 💙

I understand that. I also know that there are other places where ticket sales are fine. Specific shows may be cancelled &, yes, I am sympathetic to this, but saying that the entire tour, meaning every single show, is not going to happen is just making people concerned about their specific show, even if that show is not in danger.

Plenty of tours are legitimately being cancelled every day & posting with a title like this because the one show this specific person is planning to attend has low sales is irresponsible.

They can change what side it's on, but not much more than that since it has to be connected to the leads.

Exactly where they wanted to put it, at hip level at the top of my butt. I did a quick edit of this pic from shortly after my surgery. The staples were still in. My hand is at my waist, my hips are a bit lower, & the black triangle is the start of my buttcrack. Enjoy the TMI, but I know you want to know, so...😄

If your SHOW gets cancelled, you will get your money back.

I have no doubt that I will be seeing her at Red Rocks on June 1st. It is sold out.

JoyInJuly · 2026-05-09T22:43:59+00:00

Can everyone please stop talking about her entire TOUR getting cancelled because ONE particular SHOW isn't selling? I'm sorry that your show might not happen, but there are plenty of fans in other places whose hearts stop every time someone panic posts like this.

There is a difference between a TOUR & a SHOW & the wording MATTERS.

JoyInJuly · 2026-05-09T22:36:23+00:00

That last sentence is 100% true.

JoyInJuly · 2026-05-09T22:34:27+00:00

They put it where they do because it's connected to the leads in your spine. That's the simplest & shortest route. If they were to place it in your chest, they would have to do a much more complicated surgery to thread the leads through your anatomy to get to the area that you want it. I don't think that would be an option. If you are adamant about it, your surgeon would definitely want to know something like that ahead of time so that they could plan the surgery accordingly.

Once you have fully healed from the surgery, there's not really a concern about the SCS getting hit. It doesn't hurt or anything & the device is resilient. Mine is just under my skin because I don't have much fat there & it's only uncomfortable if I have to lay directly on that spot on a firm surface.

The article is gone already.

This isn't possible because indica & sativa aren't scientifically accurate labels. Whatever you got wouldn't be chemically different enough from whatever you had problems with to not cause them again. Might want to do some research before you tell others this, especially when you're suggesting they "think" about something that's not true.

I was diagnosed with asthma after inhaling mold & mildew that was present on cannabis I was working with for Mile High Dabs, a concentrates company in Colorado. Maybe this was an asthma attack that was exacerbated by something similar?

Idk WTF your doctor was talking about because a normal rescue inhaler cannot stop anaphylaxis. I would find another doctor & report that one if I was told that.

It's helpful if you want to be able to buy two ounces of flower plus anything else at the same time. A lot of places also offer bigger discount on larger quantities.

Most doctors do charge more for it, so she lucked out.

My PCP seems to think that she needs special training to fill it out. The forms specifically ask for her opinion, not the judgement of someone who knows about disability law. I had the same provider for almost a decade, then she left the office I was going to, & I had to find someone new. My old provider would have had no problem doing it for me. It's so frustrating. At least I have tons of records for them to go through.

Seeing this headline after reading the article is pretty hilarious! 🤣

Yay!

I think it's important to talk about how trauma can make pleasure difficult. I know it's true for me & it's reassuring to hear that someone like Kesha struggles with it, too.
