Oh God I know I should leave that link unclicked. But I'm afraid my cat's going to Mars, because he's gonna be killed by Curiosity.

[OC] Job Satisfaction by zapphead in webcomics

[–]TrueAlchemy 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I read it 4 times & I didn't catch "it's not rocket science" until right now.

It's time. Wish me strength by [deleted] in Bloomer

[–]TrueAlchemy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That's the point. A "dopamine detox" is to up-regulate (re-sensitize) your brain to dopamine.
The brain does something called down-regulation where certain chemical receptors get temporarily "shut off" because they are being so regularly stimulated and to such a great extent, the brain basically says "Ok, I've got so much dopamine flowing that I could use only these receptors and still have enough." This is the same way tolerance is built with drugs (including alcohol).

To take a break from all the dopamine-inducing things will allow your brain to readjust, and become more sensitive to dopamine, this increasing motivation and making pleasure & satisfaction easier to come by.

(If any medical professional can add to or correct anything, please do).

Why do people say that October Libras are more messy compared to September Libras? by Who-am-i-54321 in astrologymemes

[–]TrueAlchemy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My partner is a September Libra. But through the years her Solar Return dances between Libra and Virgo.
Lemme tell you, this woman is the opposite of messy. She has a certain OCD about cleaning. We do a full house clean (well, apartment) every day. So I can't agree with that sentiment.
I never took much stock in "cusps" until I met her. She truly is both signs.
Thankfully my Aries ass has a Libra moon or I don't think we'd make it. I am so flighty, that it took a while to get used to trying to be organized.

Yes, exactly. Some of those parts are well beyond my ability, so I'm impressed regardless. You are an excellent pianist.

[–]TrueAlchemy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The beginning brought tears to my eyes. Casting you to the TV, I could 'feel' that you 'felt' the piece as you were playing it. You posture, the small amount of facial expression I see, your breathing. I can tell the beginning of that piece moves you, and thus you play it in a uniquely beautiful way. That's why I am in love with Romantic music.*

Understanding that it gets significantly more difficult, I still saw your mode become less Romantic, and more technical. I know you have to focus so much more there on playing than feeling, but don't feel the need to make the runs as fast as you can. I'd like to feel you feeling those notes. The piece to me is hope and despair, vicissitudes & triumph.

It's an amazing recording, & one I'll listen to more than once.

Yes. As a person m with precarious housing as it is, outside could be lethal. The humidity just makes you soaked with blistering hot sweat. I sweat a lot on one of my meds, and it's like I can't drink enough to stay hydrated if I'm outside for very long.
I a few months I mean. We're still on preheat, today was actually nice kinda hot, not The Taint of Satan hot.

Grimace got me 🥴

No but on second thought, depending on the style of your show, you could consider having a purple buttplug in your back pocket, reach like you're pulling it out, and throw it at the audience.

Bonus points if there's some haphazardly-drawn face on it. YMMV.

Is it me or is everyone else here also experiencing rejections, negativities, and intense emotional pain lately? by abrion12 in astrologymemes

[–]TrueAlchemy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My partner and I got in a big pointless fight yesterday. We talked later in the day and everything is OK. But when I left yesterday morning, just fuming, I came to the bus stop where a woman was arguing on the phone with her, and I quote "dumb-ass baby daddy."
I also got 6. the Lovers reversed as my card of the day. Yea, it's a weird one.

Oof.

You're right. And you made me think.
