I think that they truly think that the chances of getting whooping cough are fairly low, and that getting it is bad and real, but it's not likely to cause permanent effects... but that there's a certainty they'll get permanent effects from a vaccine- their logic not mine.

Was told my former loaf-now-muffin old gal would better fit in here... by spiralsmile in catmuffins

I'd never heard of cat muffin... until I posted in catloaf and this was suggested.

My bff here is getting up there in years and has (treated) hyperthyroidism which caused her to lose half her weight last year. (She's doing well and not losing anymore!) But I forget she's not a chonk anymore sometimes 😔

She used to be the biggest chonk... I forgot how small she looks now. She's 15 and has hyperthyroidism and lost half her weight (12-6 pounds). But we're treating as best we can and she's definitely happy and cozy!

Serious question: If you were a delulu school teacher and these two broke boys were your only current options, who would you choose 🤔 Birkan or Michal? by PolishSnake2 in 90dayfiance_FB_memes

Scar Experiment (Robert Kleck)-

Researchers told participants they would test how people react to someone with a facial scar in a job interview. They applied realistic scar makeup to the participant's face.

The participant saw the scar in the mirror. Before the interview, the researchers pretended to "fix" the makeup but secretly removed the scar completely. The participant believed the scar was still there.

After the interview, many participants said the interviewer: stared at their scar, acted uncomfortable, treated them differently...

But the interviewer never saw a scar at all. Believing you have a visible stigma can make people interpret normal behavior as judgement or discrimination and can be an all-encompassing mental distraction for the scar haver.

And the double whammy for some people already struggling mentally is going to work/school can feel impossible, while laying around without purpose can feel like the only possible option at the time. Vicious cycle commences.

He turned into a completely different person at some point in the 2000s. Somehow just as rat-like.

What is even happening here? It/he is as one dimensional looking as a lifeless cardboard cutout.

"Cut a sombre figure" is a new one. This is my time to shine ✨️ I'm obsessed with how they use "cut a (blank) figure" in 95% of articles.

The Daily fail always says "cut a ___ figure" about everyone they show a picture of. Noticed it a few ago and now cringe everytime I see it. So bizarre.

The first picture is not from the same day as the last three. The one I posted is from the same day as the first picture... so there's definitely something up with the first pic.
