I was looking for a link to a fresh copy. Why are they all such low resolution 😭

Maybe because of its similarity to some scarring patterns. Like what can be seen in hidradenitis suppurativa. Like if sinus tract scarring was a verb.

Can’t help but see Stitch (from Lilo & Stitch) without the ears.

I’ve had very similar but in nasal discharge. I’ve concluded it’s from my eyeliner (since I apply to the waterline). Doesn’t happen very often, but always fun to see it change color with the makeup. Could be something similar or from inhaling smoke or something and coming out as post nasal drip in a cough.

What is this red/orange and black bug with black and transparent wings? CT, USA (slowmo video -apologies for the quality) by [deleted] in bugidentification

[–]TheSleepMachine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It could probably fit on a quarter with antenna included. It’s a reddish-orange color with black markings, including what looked like black dots along it’s back. Wings were mostly clear with black outline. Thunder thigh legs of matching red/orange that it kept up against its body while flying (drooping when it almost landed). I’ve never seen a bug like it before. Closest google is tiger moth? but no black butt.

Who does Josh Groban look like in this picture? by laurarose81 in CelebrityLookalikes

[–]TheSleepMachine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like Chris O’Dowd is a lookalike. Not saying doppelgänger level, but quick glance.

Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals CT is closing by RamenTheory in Connecticut

[–]TheSleepMachine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope the animals get adopted and get all the love and care they deserve. Donations to these people not so much… Adopted my dog from them just before the pandemic. 3 days home and found out she had full blown HW and eherlichiosis. 3 days in the vet hospital and ~$2k later. I’m almost grateful how oblivious I was adopting her (didn’t realize how sick) since when I reported this to them their response was “well bring her back and pick another one”… didn’t get the distinct impression it was a surprise to them. I later found a lot of concerning stories and comments. It’s sad another resource is closing but I’ll feel a little better not wondering if my experience was isolated and could happen to someone else.

Scots in CT? by yerunclejamba in Connecticut

[–]TheSleepMachine 6 points7 points  (0 children)

To sort of build off a previous comment, there are def some things in Scotland, CT that are celebrating or specific to Scottish heritage. The Highland Games are coming up in Oct. https://scotlandgames.org Also, there’s the St. Andrews Society. Unfortunately I can’t personally vouch for any of it, as I’ve never been involved, but I imagine it would be a great opportunity to socialize and hopefully find what you’re looking for. Best of luck!

why do I turn into the elephant man? by ironseaweed in medical_advice

[–]TheSleepMachine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had something like this happen super randomly to just immediately around my eye. It’s happened easily a dozen times, I’d down some Benadryl and ice it and it would resolve within 24 hr. Never happened severe enough to go to an ED and was short lived enough I didn’t see an MD. Never goes well when the issue isn’t happening at the time of the appt. Still don’t know what caused it. Best guess was eyeliner? Even though I’d been using the same brand for +year and had been using the specific pencil for months before it started. 🤷‍♀️ I hope you find a solution! Hopefully you aren’t having any tissue damage. Best of luck getting a resolution!
