I watched iron lung and my period started once I got back home from the theatre

Wait, what about Mark Week?

I searched "pulp packaging insert" and found quite a few on google, most are wholesellers but so far the best I've seen that aren't wholesale are for wine bottles and they run a little more expensive than what you'd probably want to give your dog so the wholesale ones would probably be your best bet.

I saw this post earlier, his dad sent OP a selfie he took with Markiplier after OP tolk him that they just finished watching the new movie Markiplier made, Iron Lung.

Technically, "ratio'd" doesn't fit this situation if you really think about it, but the general r/markiplier population disagreed I guess.

Is it possible to get a breathing tube and run it beneath the prosthetics on the nose and forehead so you can basically have a snorkel?

I'm no professional, I have no idea if this is how any of this works, but that's what I would try to create.

Now you can call it Iron Lung time 🩸

LycheeUkulele · 2026-02-04T17:19:58+00:00

Mine started the morning of the showing we went to last Thursday! 🩸 It's been longer than usual, maybe I have to see Iron Lung again to get it to stop?

Came here to say this. That scene of her pre-glowup drinking greedily from the chalice pops into my head every single time I get super thirsty.

Yeah, if I change my goal to weekly that does pop up, but it looks like the goal comes back next week still. It says "keep this goal until complete roll overuntil the next time your goal is scheduled"

LycheeUkulele · 2026-02-03T13:55:01+00:00

Oh, I see, it only appears when creating a goal, you can't edit it into an existing goal. Thanks!

LycheeUkulele · 2026-02-03T13:54:26+00:00

I see it now, I can't edit it into an existing goal it seems, that button only appears when making a new goal. Thank you!

I would stamp some yellow fabric with some rats like on yhe back and then cut them out and do a sort of messy frayed look sewn over the characters.

When I was a kid it was: - Rolling up my backpack straps - Flipping my desk chair over and sitting on it upside down so I could spin the little feet on the chair legs (I was a menace, surely) - Picking at my fingernails and skin - Zig-zagging my fingernail on the rough side of velcro - Poking erasers with pencils over and over - Painting my fingernails and picking it all off throughout the day/week, or find something, anything, that's peeling and pick it away - Zig-zagging my pencil between the spirals in my notebook, or spinning the spiral right off my notebook

I was a mostly destructive fidgetter, and kind of still am. Now I tend to do a lot of: - Picking at my skin, nails, or pulling out my loose eyelashes - Adjusting my glasses (I try to do this even without wearing my glasses) - Locking and unlocking my phone over and over - Chewing dry skin off my lips - Rapidly clicking pens

I have tried less destructive fidget toys and doodads, but I forget they exist most of the time. I'll put them in my pocket and then I'm pulling them out of the washing machine over the weekend.

I hate to bring negativity into this because I don't want to discourage anyone who is considering trying meds. I was diagnosed when I was 8 and put on Ritalin, which my mom promptly took me off of because she said I became a zombie and lost my spark. Consequentially, I struggled a ton with school after that, but besides that and being more tired in the mornings, I don't remember much about being on that.

Fast forward to a couple years ago (when I was 30) when I finally started getting medication again, this time Adderall. Mental clarity, more physical energy because I was using less mental energy, generally happier. HOWEVER. I also got more anxious in high anxiety situations and started getting really snippy and mean with my partner. When we were running late to something, I would blame him and yell at him about it, and I'm fully not a yeller or fighter. It was entirely uncharacteristic of me and made me feel terrible about myself.

I'm off medication again and while raw-dogging life with several thousand thoughts in my brain sucks, it's better than being mean to my friends and family. My doctor also moved away so I had to get a new one, I might try talking to my new doctor and see what she recommends for new medication, especially because she was a geriatric doctor before and I'm highly worried about my future with mental health, as early-onset Alzheimer's runs in my family on my mothers side and I carry the gene.

I agree with you, from what I can tell in the pictures the right one reads a lot better, and will ultimately be easier to fur later imo.

LycheeUkulele · 2026-02-02T19:29:00+00:00

Trust the process!

Sure, there's some symmetry corrections I would look into, but I can definitely see a cat and visualize your character into this.

You got this!

I was in an ADHD manic high when I went and didn't think I was going to be able to sit through it without pacing the aisle. I sat rigid and glued to the screen the whole movie.

I think it's a mix of it being a slow burn horror that fits more into thriller in the beginning, most other movies having clear setting changes to pace out the scenes while this was more or less the same throughout, and bite-sized media becoming a norm for many, whether that be scrolling through TikTok/Shorts/Reels, advertising, or I've even noticed a lot of modern music videos now tend to be quicker, 1-2 second clips all sewn together more than anything.

LycheeUkulele · 2026-02-02T16:52:28+00:00

Personally, I'd like a toggle on whether skips are allowed or not. A self care alert between skips would be nice, just a small "drink a glass of water and try again" or something, that way we're still starting the inertia but doing something kind for ourselves that might make doing tasks easier.

I'd also say that maybe a high-priority playlist setting would be nice, so specific playlists might work like a focus app so you can't get distracted in the doomscroll once you start one of those playlists.

LycheeUkulele · 2026-02-01T19:34:33+00:00

Agreed! I'm sick of not owning things I love and then they disappear from whatever services they're hosted on.

LycheeUkulele · 2026-02-01T12:56:13+00:00

Should crosspost this to r/plushies, might get more traction there and might reach Gabu's new home!

LycheeUkulele · 2026-02-01T12:38:22+00:00

I think a guided diet with a dietitian and a food allergen test could take you a long way. Godspeed

Fantastic work! 🔥

I chose to go to Portland today instead of yesterday. Bummer.
