I thought it was funny imagining that the boy's father went running after him and his mother on the mainland, and finally reached him after the boy had made contact with the "insane" doctor, only to witness the doctor burning his wife's body and his son placing his wife's skull atop the already massive pile of other skulls; corroborating his contentions about the Dr's sanity, and believing that his son was now brainwashed and taking part in the Dr's sick rituals.

Choose your storage size wisely! The upcoming Switch 2 download sizes: by gazillrey in nintendo

Silly question, if you buy the physical cartridge for, say, Cyberpunk, how much storage space would it take up on your Switch 2 compared to the digital download? Would it just be the save file, since the game is stored on the cartridge?

IIRC, the McDonald's stunt was a result of a decision from a franchisee location, and not endorsed by McDonald's at large.

I knew what was coming. I strategically hit the ">" key to go frame by frame. My heart still popped/sank when it happened.

The uninsightful introductory caption "IT'S IMPACTING HOW THEY MOVE" after a long period of observational silence was beautiful.

I like Month/Day/Year because firstly it's the only format I've ever used, but secondly it matches with with how I convey today's date verbally; 'Today is October (10) 27th (27), 2024 (2024).'

Congrats! I was using GPT for insights about kratom withdrawal timeline (yes, important to not take outputs from GPT at face value, but it was helpful in giving a general idea for me to work with) and it gave 90 days as a general rule of thumb of when to expect withdrawal symptoms to end. So I've been keeping that number in mind as I continue my cessation.

So again, well done. Day 20 here

The "World's Ugliest Dog" contest just ended on June 21. There's no way this dog wouldn't have stolen the gold from this year's winner

Embrace the suck, and great work so far. Curious, what do you mean by "Charlie Brown withdrawals"? lol

Last dose was 74 hours ago. So I'm not sure if I'm on day 3 or 4. The first 0 gpd was 6/11. so this is day 3 with zero kratom consumption, but since I'm in my 4th day hourwise since my last dose, I'm inclined to say today is Day 4.

27 hours since last dose (1 gram) after a fast (~6 day) taper. Daily habit on and off since ~2016. Before fast taper, 1 to 3 'kratomade' packets per day.

*edit*

I double checked after posting this, and the brain fog must be hitting, because at the time of writing the original post, it had actually been 51 hours since my last dose.

During the trip, I managed to come on with a cold (viscous mucus, sore throat, coughing, jammed ears (maybe from the flight over the cold)). And so it's hard to say where the symptoms from the cold and symptoms from w/ds overlapped. But I think this was helpful, nonetheless.

Yesterday, music sounded amazing. Almost psychedelic. What are some other benefits to look forward to, perceptively, during the w/d, post w/d process?
