2024.05.19 12:46 Sin-God A New Chain: Routine

The church's earliest visitors on Sunday are a group of kind-hearted do-gooders. And Lucas is there too.
The group, including Lucas, is diligently doing last-minute preparations, carefully and skillfully tending to the food they expertly prepared yesterday. Every single person involved in the work does their part with impressive ease and earned confidence. Lucas's careful contributions, both his direct, visible work, and the boons conferred by his presence allow them to do their work with newfound ease, confidence, and remarkable luck. Lucas occasionally makes minor missteps, but those are due more to the drawbacks he is enduring than anything he actually does. And every time he makes a mistake it's so minor a few deft movements are enough for him to overcome them. All the while he is texting Hannah and is visibly excited to volunteer, even though his motives are still quite selfish.
Lucas wisely does not take a leadership role here. The diligent figure follows the lead of his more experienced peers, and his endless, untiring contributions are enough to allow the group to be ready in an hour, completing work that normally takes them two or three thanks to the various perks Lucas grants them, as well as his actual, material contributions. When the group is ready, Lucas suggests they all swap stories about what led them to volunteer here.
The five volunteers and the pastor encourage the newcomer to go first, and he deftly weaves a tale that incorporates bits and pieces of the backstory he constructed for himself at his job. He explains that he grew up as the only child of a family in a small town and that he has been volunteering in minor capacities his whole life. He tells his new friends the same fanciful lies he told his coworkers and is a bit shocked when he gets the "Storytelling" skill. After that, his companions share their own stories with him. The pastor goes first, explaining that when he took over the church not one charitable act was occurring here and in only a few short years the pastor has massively changed that. The others all share various stories about how they've needed food before, or known people who needed a meal, and so they wanted to make sure that if someone needed a meal they could get it. The stories stir Lucas's heart, and he feels a pang of sincere admiration for his new friends. That said the pragmatic figure is not someone who is so kind-hearted that he'd lose sight of his larger objectives here.
While his companions share their stories he activates "Rogue", but focuses the skill on his hands. This decision almost completely cloaks his hands, rendering them invisible just long enough for Lucas to pour healing magic into the soup. He pours all of his magical energy into the stuff, exhausting himself but that is a minor inconvenience given one of his handy toys and especially when he receives a notification alerting him that he has gained an "Overcharge" skill; the ability to empower something by putting more into it.
As soon as everyone finishes their stories there is just enough time for the group of volunteers to go and get ready for the first of the arrivals at the kitchen. When Lucas is out of view of everyone he reaches into his inventory and pulls out his nifty arcane potion and downs it. The instant that the golden liquid touches his lips his power begins to flow back into him, suffusing his very soul. Minutes later the lad is welcoming guests and visitors to the church. People excitedly greet him, stunned in two different ways by his appearance.
Firstly there is the fact that Lucas is stunning, aesthetically. No matter one's preferences, no one can honestly deny his wholesome movie star looks, and no one tries to. But here, in the soup kitchen, that's the less important part of his appeal. The more important aspect of his appearance is his newness. Many of the people who appear early are people who come to the church regularly, and they recognize everyone there but him. This gives the young volunteer a chance to make several new admirers, and he navigates these social interactions with aplomb. The figure, at this point, doesn't even rely on his perks, having grown accustomed to his new life and reality.
As the figure encourages the visitors to come and grab food he is extremely pleased when he feels time freeze the first time someone tastes the food he made. This is due to the fact that he is making progress towards his quest to become a "White Mage" the formal name given to the "Healer" class he received a quest to become earlier this week, The quest asks him to heal 100 people, and this marks one of the first times he has made progress towards it. The figure smiles internally as he deactivates the notification that froze time and continues the important work he's been assigned; welcoming guests and working to log in the information they're willing to give about themselves. To achieve this task the eager go-getter has a clipboard and is stationed near the entrance to the part of the church that houses the kitchen where the chefs made the food. Every time someone new eats the food he spelled to be restorative the figure has to deal with paused time, but only the first time someone lifts some of the ensorcelled food to their lips, and each time his excitement at the prospect of obtaining a new class grows more intense.
For the first hour only long-term, regular members of the church's congregation, and their hungry friends, come to the kitchen. The pastor is one of the figures serving them food, while Lucas continues the important work he was asked to do. During this time 22 people make their way through the kitchen, greeting Lucas with excited smiles and happily volunteering the same information they've volunteered before to other individuals tasked with doing Lucas's current work. The young jumper listens to distant conversations even as he writes down the information of various individuals. He smiles internally whenever he overhears someone saying that the food tastes different somehow, better than it has before. Such individuals also sometimes notice how immediately the pain they're in lessens, their old aches and pains fading and in some cases disappearing altogether. They don't know about the magic that is repairing their bodies, the sacred energies that course into them with every faint bite or spoonful of food they eat. Also during this time the chef gains more experience
Lucas doesn't consciously know this but his decision to pour all of his magic into the food has supercharged it. If not for his decision to infuse the food with healing magic again time, coupled with the diffuse nature of the soup would have weakened the healing properties of the magic, but Lucas's choice to suffuse the food with as much magic as he could in short order before the hungry congregants and community members began to arrive has sanctified the food and empowered it's naturally restorative and fortifying properties almost making it something like a potion of sorts.
More people begin to arrive during the second hour of the meal serving period. Some of these people are brand new, and of them a handful gawk at Lucas. These individuals, include homeless youth. teen parents, and college students can't resist the urge to take in the cool glass of water on a hot day that is the charming volunteer. His ability to feign kindness and his almost but not quite eerie sense of their emotional states is enough to allow them to develop crushes, platonic or otherwise, on the figure. And in the space of the hour 40 such individuals come through and eat more of Lucas's cooking, enough to allow him to level up his chef class one more time. He eagerly takes a new class ability, one that allows him to grant food he cooks very minor buffs, though he finds that it's not retroactive.
During this time the pastor gives a very brief address to the crowd of gathered individuals, and introduces Lucas to everyone though Lucas has already been social enough and diligent enough to do that himself. Lucas eagerly thanks everyone for joining them today, and during this time he experiences a very subtle glitch where he says a word but no one notices it. The young adventurer simply ignores the glitch, but not before noting that it's the first one he's experienced in a public situation.
During the last forty five minutes of the meal more people come through, and this group is the oddest and the largest. These folks are the irregulars; people who occasionally need the meals the kitchen provides but who don't love prospect of coming to the kitchen. This group numbers a total 45 of individuals, and by the time they eat the effects of the food are less miraculous, but still solidly strong. At the same time when the next to last person to eat grabs a spoonful of soup and lifts it to her lips she is unknowingly responsible for time freezing and Lucas gaining a new class, The excited hero immediately changes classes and gains a boost to his intelligence and charisma as a result of it as well as just enough experience to boost the power of "Support", making this the first time that a perk of his has been directly strengthened to a quantifiable extent.
"Support" is the most subtle of Lucas's perks other than "The Devil's Own Luck". This perk makes him a more effective leader and teammate, and boosts the efforts of his c;lose-by allies by the equivalent of a "+2", until just now, modifier in TTRPG terms and weakens the efforts of his c;lose-by enemies by "-2", or now "-3". In layman's terms all of the efforts of his allies by a tiny but noticeable margin and weakens the efforts of his enemies by an equal amount. The perk also allows for buffs or debuffs to affect all allies or enemies in close proximity to each other, but Lucas has not had many chances to buff allies or fight enemies. One effect this perk has had is that it allows his friends to cook food that is more delicious, more filling, and healthier than their past efforts. Another effect of it is that it has helped those who eat said food to ingest it more easily and thus allows them to eat it without fears of stomach pains. New spells also appear in the hero's mental grimoire, ones that offer minor buffs or debuffs to friends and enemies, targeting their attributes, but none that consider Lucas a viable target.
The hero delights in his new class and is excited to have the chance to grow as a healer and support provider but the day isn't done. When the last of the crowd leaves Lucas and the rest of his friends stay behind to clean up. Lucas is eager to put his newly enhanced perk to the test, and during these efforts Lucas gains the "Cleaner" class, a class whose initial benefits to him include a boost to his senses and to his skill with anything intended to be used to clean something. During the cleaning, Lucas does not quite gain enough experience to level up, but he knows that he will in time.
Eventually Lucas bids his new friends farewell and makes his way to the gym. He works out somewhat intensely during this time, gaining a series of new skills in the form of swimming and boxing, thanks to his time engaging in a decently stimulating jaunt around the lap pool, followed by his participation in a class that revolves around self-defense. Thanks to "Master of All" and his decision to swap classes to "Fighter" he manages to level up both his "Mage" and his "Fighter" class, opting to give himself a boost to his endurance as a class skill for "Fighter", and a boost to the rate at which he regenerates arcane energy as his class skill for "Mage". It is during this time that Lucas figures out that for his classes to level up he needs to gain class-based experience, but this is the first time that he has seen that he can level a class up without having the class equipped, there just seems to be some relative debuff to the experience gained by the classes he doesn't have equipped. This insight boosts his intelligence, the realization itself serving as a sort of training of the attribute.
By the time Lucas returns to his apartment he is immensely satisfied with the day he has had. The moon is visible in the night's sky when he steps into his apartment he is ready to spend the rest of the day honing his skills and gaining valuable experience. He immediately starts this off by using some of his magic to mess with some of his possessions, positioning and repositioning them as he pleases with telekinesis. For the first time the figure shuts his eyes and practices his telekinesis by feeling alone, an exercise which results in the acquisition of a strange new skill: Extrasensory Perception, or ESP. The figure excitedly practices this skill, even as he levels up his "Spatial Magic" skill and gains an expensive new spell: "Minor Teleport". This particular spell lets him teleport objects he can see and hit with a small magical ray, causing light, small objects he hits to appear in his hand. The mage's skills with this are enough to allow him to hit a kitchen knife with it and teleport it to him without any issues. Lucas's mind fills with possibilities as he takes in the wicked potential of this spell. Still, the spell costs enough that he can only cast it once or twice without waiting for his pool of arcane energy to recover which limits it's usefulness somewhat but that's only a short term problem.
Monday rolls around and when it does Lucas is delighted to find that he is familiar enough with his surroundings that he settles into a routine. The jumper almost immediately throws himself into his work the minute he arrives at the office and he quickly grinds the day away. The only notable event is his realization that Amy is developing a crush on him, something he notices during lunch when he is eating with her and their small cadre of colleagues, when she eagerly asks him about volunteering. On Monday afternoon the lad goes to the gym and works out, taking another dancing class and leveling up the class partway through the workout. He gains a class skill which allows him to more easily persuade anyone who sees him perform a few dances, which he realizes probably won't be very useful in this jump but might mean something later on in his "Chain" as his employer called it several days ago.
The figure spends part of the night leveling his rogue class and gaining skills associated with it thanks in part to his "Rogue" perk and his new spells. He sticks to public places, and stays out just long enough for some shopping outlets and malls to close. He limits his targets to small objects like keys and wallets with his magic, and occasionally targets people with debuffs. He also levels "Observe" enough that he can learn the moods of living things just by using the skill, When his rogue class levels up he snags a new skill which boosts the effectiveness of his actions when he is unseen by the people he is targeting. He also snags a title: "Arcane Sneak", which boosts his magical regeneration when he is unnoticed by people or in the immediate aftermath of him using magic to take something that belongs to someone else.
The next month and a half passes in a blur, and Lucas develops a decently strict schedule he sticks to. On Mondays he trains a specific class, not necessarily rogue but definitely something. On Tuesdays he works out, including taking Zumba, a boxing class, and swimming. On Wednesdays he does meal prep and stays at home honing minor stuff. On Thursday he does some sort of volunteering, and on Fridays he actually relaxes and does something like writing or website design. The weekends are filled with volunteering and city exploration.
During this time his classes, other than chef, dancer, and mage, are slow to level up. He actively practices magic, he is a regular chef, and he turns a passive admiration he once had for dancers into something he is surprisingly passionate about. He also begins to volunteer at the hospital he visited, spending a few hours every Saturday in a small room in the back of the hospital looking through paperwork and doing stuff he didn't anticipate a hospital volunteer doing. Still, he quickly racks up trust and admiration from the few hospital staff members who know of him, thanks to his ability to just not complain, coupled with his stunning effectiveness at what he does.
As he begins to approach the two month mark he is a level 10 chef, level 12 dancer, and a level 6 mage, and a level 3 fighter, rogue, and white mage, as well as a level 4 cleaner. It turns out that each class levels a bit differently, which has inadvertently skewed his leveling but he's become an advanced enough chef that his food can be actively beneficial or detrimental and that there is now a 5% reduction in how long it takes him to cook something. He can also now gain modifiers to his interactions with people who've eaten several dishes he's made, provided they enjoyed them. His dancing is similarly useful, and he is a much better mage now than he once was. The figure can also cast spells and use an ability that prevents something from getting dirty, or magically cleanse objects. Despite all of this he remains a level 1 human, having not gained any experience that would level him as a member of his species; it seems that for him to gain such experience he needs to engage in combat and even when he's sparred with people he doesn't fight them to unconsciousness.
He leaves his apartment on the last Monday in October with a smile on his face, ready to begin a new work week.

2024.05.19 08:47 hasurvivor Breathing difficulty on and off - HA and 2 stents in Feb 2024

53M. HA in Feb 2024 100%+90% blockages in both the arteries. 2 stents.
I used to feel heavy breathing, stomach muscles cramps and a lump building in my throat (the kind you feel when you are very emotional and have an urge to cry) when I was feeling very weak earlier. That feeling left me after that for a while.
Recently I caught flu, with sneezing and body ache, and the heavy breathing and the feeling like I have a lump in my throat came back. I feel ok while eating or sleeping or right after I wake up but the feeling builds up after a while. Sometimes I gasp for air and have a feeling that I cannot breathe. I talked to my cardiologist about it and he says everything is ok with me. I have the same feeling when I talk a bit more in a particular day; I get breathless and have difficulty breathing.
Anybody else feels/felt the same way anytime? When the body is weak after HA, have you ever felt breathing heaviness, chocking in throat, etc.? Will be great if you can share please.
Thanks,

2024.05.19 08:01 nikkiileighh Dream about this girl I like, but it felt so real I thought I was awake.

So I’m not exactly sure how it started, but I remember waking up, in my dream, as if I had slept the entire night & it was morning. I had checked my phone & I saw this girl I liked had texted me, & I’m not exactly sure how it got to this point, but I started apologizing, like extensively, for something I had done, again I don’t remember as this part was very foggy, & then she texted back to my apology saying “You keep apologizing for the same thing but your actions never change” & in that moment, I swear it was like something in my body shifted, like it felt so real… I just remember this intense feeling took over my body, and I got the worst stomach ache ever, like I was going to throw up. I just remember texting back “But what did I do (name), what did I do… I’m trying…” & my dream began to feel so real & intense, the last thing I remember was questioning if this was a dream, & immediately after I woke up. I woke up with the same intense feeling on my body, & the same stomach ache, & something just felt off. It was like something in my body had shifted, or changed. I’m not sure exactly. This dream has sat with me the entire day, it has not left my mind once, & something just feels different. & not a good different. Can someone possibly help me understand the meaning of this dream? I know people say seeing your phone in a dream is rare, so maybe that means something? I am just consumed in this dream right now, & I don’t know what to do about it.

2024.05.19 06:08 kagura_143 Sudden Digestive Issues, what is happening to me?

Age: 22
Sex: F
Height: 5’1”
Weight: 164 lbs
Race: hispanic
Duration of complaint: 3 months
Location: abdomen
Currently have high cholesterol. bad cholesterol count of 103 according to my primary care.
Current medications: metoclopramide 5mg. sertraline 25mg, pantoprazole 40mg
i’ll include pictures of some tests that i’ve had done in the comments if i can.
Gonna try to include as best of a description of my symptoms as i can, i’ll also try to edit anything if it makes my description better.
this all started 2 months ago. literally the last week of february. at the time i wasn’t on any type of medication. nothing changed in my eating habits, except for the fact that i’d had panda express for the 1st time ever starting in february.
i became constipated suddenly one afternoon and this continued for a week. went to the doctor and i was sent to get a ct scan. but obviously, i’m not familiar with medical terms. from what i understand, there’s evidence of slow transit through my small bowel, but don’t know where or why exactly.
symptoms include: constipation accompanied by side and abdominal discomfort/aches/ pains. my upper abdominal area aches a lot some days. it feels as if the area right under the breast bones wants to cramp up. i feel burning in my stomach and abdomen too. gas is hard to pass somedays and feels trapped. i also have upper back aches. doctor told me it’s because of my small intestine. i also have lower back aches as well, but was told it could be because of kidney stones i didn’t even know i had, but just thought i’d mention this. i have diarrhea (once i went and it was very watery,) loose stools, stools with mucus and pieces of undigested food, mainly meat, of varying shapes and consistencies. the mucus on my stool is clear and white and appears like strings on my stool. sometimes i’ll have a semi normal movement, but with mucus. sometimes my stool will be thin, in small pieces, or just very loose even after a “normal” bowel movement. other times i’ll go but it’s just mucus. all my stools are also slimey in texture from what i can tell. also, everytime i wipe my stool it’s yellow in color with mucus and/or clear fluid. sometimes i’ll have this urgency to go despite being constipated.
also, not sure if this has to do with my current condition but have been wiping light red blood after i go, both with my more solid stools and loose ones. in one instance i even wiped only blood. there’s also been times where i’ve seen streaks of blood on my stool too. clear fluid also seems to be leaking out of my anal area…. clear mucus sometimes too. this causes my anal area and the inside of it to itch and sting. it feels like that sometimes after a bowel movement, even if it’s soft, other times it just feels itchy throughout the day, even if there is no anal leakage or if i don’t go to the bathroom. the mucus that comes out sometimes has pieces of stool/liquid that is the color of my stool. even with the supplements and meds i’ve been given, i’m lucky if I go even once a day now, but constipation is getting worse in my opinion.
in late march/early april i started to experience nausea, heartburn, acid reflux, and severe loss of appetite. all of these symptoms have persisted since. i no longer eat any of the food i used to. i can’t eat fast food or meat any more. i’m sticking to fruit, no citrusy fruits, crackers, soups, and cereal with almond or lactose free milk. even with these changes in diet my symptoms have persisted.
i eat very little because i just don’t feel hunger like i used to at all. even if i do i find that i get full very easily. i’m bloated after i eat as well. also, like i said i’m constipated so my bowel movement are little to none.
i currently still have all of the symptoms above and they don’t seem to be improving.
in a addition to a ct scan i’ve gotten tested for a blood infection, negative. celiac disease blood test came back negative. stool test for h pylori came back negative. a test to find if there was any blood digested and present in my stool came back negative. a stool test that was done to measure levels of fat in my stool came back indicating normal levels of fat in my stool. i also got an ultra sound for lumps that appeared on my abdomen but it was found that they were just fatty lumps. i also got an endoscopy in late april where 3 tissue biospies were taken. apparently, the 3 things they tested for all came back negative. other than a bacterial infection, i have no idea what else they ruled out. i’m not even white sure what bacterial infections they ruled out.
honestly, i’m getting more questions than answers at the moment and just want to know if there’s any more testing that i should ask for. what could possibly be happening to me and why?

2024.05.19 05:45 Simple_Day_5641 (32F) Need advice/encouragement :'(

I'm looking for advice while I wait to see a doc. I've been to the hospital 3 times in the last 2 months for sudden chest pain, shortness of breath, and high blood pressure, thinking I'm having a heart attack. The first time I couldn't breathe, collapsed, and thought I was going to die in the hospital. Each time they've taken my tests, my heart and lungs are perfectly fine.
I just learned about GERD and think I may be experiencing this. I'm not experiencing any of the typical regurgitation, no stomach ache or nausea, the pain is really all centered in the chest with high blood pressure. It's been happening every night for at least a week. I live alone and am terrified every night, I'm so sad, feel so weak, and hyperfixated on both my health and every sensation in my body.
I guess I need to vent more than anything else. This came on so suddenly, with no warning, and no obvious cause. It's really getting to me :'(

2024.05.19 05:44 VicWoodhull Are there people out there who are just always healthy, who experience zero or very minimal physical and mental discomfort?

I’ve been experimenting with supplementation and biohacking for about 10 years now and I’m starting to wonder how much it has affected the way I view my own health.
I’m concerned that I may have become hypersensitive to my body to a point of mild hypochondria or even being psychosomatic.
Or maybe I genuinely have constant health issues.
I’ve been feeling envious of people who seem to never have any sort of discomfort or need for health intervention— do they actually exist?
Or do people bury it down because of societal expectations of appearing OK, or because they’re not overly in-tune to their body and so they tend to ignore issues?
Some recurring issues are:
Uncomfortable PMS symptoms like cramping, extreme fatigue, moodiness, anxiety, and bloating.
I’ve had a chronic bottom rib injury that limits my movement.
I’ve been seeing black spots in my vision for a couple of years now, usually when my heart rate is up, i’m feeling overly anxious, or I’ve had too much caffeine.
Ongoing stomach issues for years, like bloating, constipation, and pain.
There’s always some body ache I’m trying to solve, and some focus, emotional, or energy issue.
this just feels like a lot to me, especially for someone who takes care of themselves. I do have a lot of stress, but I manage it pretty well with my workout routine, diet, therapy, sleep, and other recommended techniques.
36F. I jog/run about 10 miles per week and I do hot yoga twice a week.

2024.05.19 05:31 askingforafriendthx Purina Pro Plan Veterinary diet EN Gastroenteric low fat dog food?

My Frenchie is 10 y.o. And the past 2 years he gets really bad gas that you can hear just grumbling around in there at least a couple times a week, stomach aches, eats grass weekly and for the first time in his life, got pancreatitis last year.
After a few ER visits his vet put him on a strict diet of ONLY Purine Pro Plan, his stomach seemed to be doing better but it’s getting bad again. Any suggestions for a healthy food or diet we should try?
I also just fed him and could barely scoop the wet food out of the can. It looks like silly putty that dried into shiny burnt plastic on its edges…. That can’t be healthy….can it?!?
P.S. Preferably organic please
Thanks Frenchie parents!!! We love you all!!!

2024.05.19 05:11 johnnysuhswig tired of not feeling in control.

i’m tired of not understanding what my body wants from me. i’ve felt so depressed lately, and i haven’t felt like that in a while. i haven’t been eating right again, haven’t been able to sleep. a stomach ache was my last straw. my stomach hurts and it won’t go away. i don’t know why i feel like this, i just want it to stop.
i’m tired of not knowing what i want. i don’t know if i even like anyone anymore. i like the idea of people, but i don’t want to spend time with anyone. i just want to watch indie and play games. it’s all i do when im not at work. i’m tired of not knowing if i actually care about the people i surround myself with. i dislike myself so much that i fear its going to spread to the people around me.
i’m just so tired of it all. i want it all to stop. i want it to go away right now.

Hi! I was exposed to sb on Thursday around 1 it’s now Saturday at 7:30. When I was exposed I took all the proper precautions, washed my hands, kept distance, etc. I haven’t been sick at all other than a little n* that I attribute to anxiety. However I just started running a fever, not feeling n* or any sort of stomach discomfort other then normal feelings of g*s. I just have a 101° fever, headache, body aches, and chills. Anyone think this could be sb?

2024.05.19 03:08 HydrochIoricAcid Stomach aches/indigestion from Keto?

For a few months now my meals only consist of red/white meat, eggs, butter, avocado, occasionally vegetables, and very occasionally nuts and cheese
For a while I’ve been experiencing stomach discomfort, it feels like I’m hungry but I’m not at the same time. Not sure how else to explain
Since I’m trying to gain weight (18M 130lb 6’0) I’m on a 200-300 calorie surplus - so 2500 calories a day. I wonder if eating an excessive amount of saturated fats/red meats is the cause of my indigestion, maybe as this puts more pressure on the gallbladder or my stomach isn’t capable of digesting so much of this? I’m saying this as I’ve been eating around 200g of fat every day, like 50-60g saturated fat
Could lack of electrolytes also be the issue? Pretty sure that department is fine but not tracking it
What should my course of action be? Reduce consumption of meat? Introducing more vegetables and fruits into diet?

Weird poop
Anyone have an idea what’s going on with my poop? I had these weird greyish/white parts on my poo and not sure what it means. I did eat a lot of sour patch and sour gummy worms the past 2 days so idk if it has anything to do with the food coloring. Noticed some slight stomach aches here and there but this definitely got me by surprise and wondering if I should go to the doctor

2024.05.19 01:08 idigclams Jack London - How I Became a Socialist

Jack London - How I Became a Socialist
It is quite fair to say that I became a Socialist in a fashion somewhat similar to the way in which the Teutonic pagans became Christians–it was hammered into me. Not only was I not looking for Socialism at the time of my conversion, but I was fighting it. I was very young and callow, did not know much of anything, and though I had never even heard of a school called “Individualism,” I sang the paean of the strong with all my heart. This was because I was strong myself. By strong I mean that I had good health and hard muscles, both of which possessions are easily accounted for. I had lived my childhood on California ranches, my boyhood hustling newspapers on the streets of a healthy Western city, and my youth on the ozone-laden waters of San Francisco Bay and the Pacific Ocean. I loved life in the open, and I toiled in the open, at the hardest kinds of work. Learning no trade, but drifting along from job to job, I looked on the world and called it good, every bit of it. Let me repeat, this optimism was because I was healthy and strong, bothered with neither aches nor weaknesses, never turned down by the boss because I did not look fit, able always to get a job at shovelling coal, sailorizing, or manual labor of some sort.
And because of all this, exulting in my young life, able to hold my own at work or fight, I was a rampant individualist. It was very natural. I was a winner. Wherefore I called the game, as I saw it played, or thought I saw it played, a very proper game for MEN. To be a MAN was to write man in large capitals on my heart. To adventure like a man, and fight like a man, and do a man’s work (even for a boy’s pay)–these were things that reached right in and gripped hold of me as no other thing could. And I looked ahead into long vistas of a hazy and interminable future, into which, playing what I conceived to be MAN’S game, I should continue to travel with unfailing health, without accidents, and with muscles ever vigorous. As I say, this future was interminable. I could see myself only raging through life without end like one of Nietzsche’s blond-beasts, lustfully roving and conquering by sheer superiority and strength.
As for the unfortunates, the sick, and ailing, and old, and maimed, I must confess I hardly thought of them at all, save that I vaguely felt that they, barring accidents, could be as good as I if they wanted to real hard, and could work just as well. Accidents? Well, they represented FATE, also spelled out in capitals, and there was no getting around FATE. Napoleon had had an accident at Waterloo, but that did not dampen my desire to be another and later Napoleon. Further, the optimism bred of a stomach which could digest scrap iron and a body which flourished on hardships did not permit me to consider accidents as even remotely related to my glorious personality.
I hope I have made it clear that I was proud to be one of Nature’s strong-armed noblemen. The dignity of labor was to me the most impressive thing in the world. Without having read Carlyle, or Kipling, I formulated a gospel of work which put theirs in the shade. Work was everything. It was sanctification and salvation. The pride I took in a hard day’s work well done would be inconceivable to you. It is almost inconceivable to me as I look back upon it. I was as faithful a wage slave as ever capitalist exploited. To shirk or malinger on the man who paid me my wages was a sin, first, against myself, and second, against him. I considered it a crime second only to treason and just about as bad.
In short, my joyous individualism was dominated by the orthodox bourgeois ethics. I read the bourgeois papers, listened to the bourgeois preachers, and shouted at the sonorous platitudes of the bourgeois politicians. And I doubt not, if other events had not changed my career, that I should have evolved into a professional strike-breaker, (one of President Eliot’s American heroes), and had my head and my earning power irrevocably smashed by a club in the hands of some militant trades-unionist.
Just about this time, returning from a seven months’ voyage before the mast, and just turned eighteen, I took it into my head to go tramping. On rods and blind baggages I fought my way from the open West where men bucked big and the job hunted the man, to the congested labor centres of the East, where men were small potatoes and hunted the job for all they were worth. And on this new blond-beast adventure I found myself looking upon life from a new and totally different angle. I had dropped down from the proletariat into what sociologists love to call the “submerged tenth,” and I was startled to discover the way in which that submerged tenth was recruited.
I found there all sorts of men, many of whom had once been as good as myself and just as blond-beast; sailor-men, soldier-men, labor-men, all wrenched and distorted and twisted out of shape by toil and hardship and accident, and cast adrift by their masters like so many old horses. I battered on the drag and slammed back gates with them, or shivered with them in box cars and city parks, listening the while to life-histories which began under auspices as fair as mine, with digestions and bodies equal to and better than mine, and which ended there before my eyes in the shambles at the bottom of the Social Pit.
And as I listened my brain began to work. The woman of the streets and the man of the gutter drew very close to me. I saw the picture of the Social Pit as vividly as though it were a concrete thing, and at the bottom of the Pit I saw them, myself above them, not far, and hanging on to the slippery wall by main strength and sweat. And I confess a terror seized me. What when my strength failed? when I should be unable to work shoulder to shoulder with the strong men who were as yet babes unborn? And there and then I swore a great oath. It ran something like this: All my days I have worked hard with my body, and according to the number of days I have worked, by just that much am I nearer the bottom of the Pit. I shall climb out of the Pit, but not by the muscles of my body shall I climb out. I shall do no more hard work, and may God strike me dead if I do another day’s hard work with my body more than I absolutely have to do. And I have been busy ever since running away from hard work.
Incidentally, while tramping some ten thousand miles through the United States and Canada, I strayed into Niagara Falls, was nabbed by a fee-hunting constable, denied the right to plead guilty or not guilty, sentenced out of hand to thirty days’ imprisonment for having no fixed abode and no visible means of support, handcuffed and chained to a bunch of men similarly circumstanced, carted down country to Buffalo, registered at the Erie County Penitentiary, had my head clipped and my budding mustache shaved, was dressed in convict stripes, compulsorily vaccinated by a medical student who practised on such as we, made to march the lock-step, and put to work under the eyes of guards armed with Winchester rifles–all for adventuring in blond-beastly fashion. Concerning further details deponent sayeth not, though he may hint that some of his plethoric national patriotism simmered down and leaked out of the bottom of his soul somewhere–at least, since that experience he finds that he cares more for men and women and little children than for imaginary geographical lines.
 * * * * * * * 
To return to my conversion. I think it is apparent that my rampant individualism was pretty effectively hammered out of me, and something else as effectively hammered in. But, just as I had been an individualist without knowing it, I was now a Socialist without knowing it, withal, an unscientific one. I had been reborn, but not renamed, and I was running around to find out what manner of thing I was. I ran back to California and opened the books. I do not remember which ones I opened first. It is an unimportant detail anyway. I was already It, whatever It was, and by aid of the books I discovered that It was a Socialist. Since that day I have opened many books, but no economic argument, no lucid demonstration of the logic and inevitableness of Socialism affects me as profoundly and convincingly as I was affected on the day when I first saw the walls of the Social Pit rise around me and felt myself slipping down, down, into the shambles at the bottom.

2024.05.19 00:22 AGM85 Pregnancy post myomectomy - what happened to your scars?

I had a robotic assisted laparoscopic myomectomy at the end of December, during which they also removed stage 2 endometriosis that I didn’t know I had. I’ve healed up well and now I’m about 6 weeks pregnant (yay!). I’m already having some aches and pulling sensations in my abdomen around where my incisions were. I know this could be just part of the healing process with or without pregnancy, but I’m starting to worry about what will happen to all my scar tissue when everything expands.
I had 3 one inch incisions on my stomach and one in my belly button. All of them have raised scar tissue despite trying silicone scar sheets. At least one of them feels kind of itchy. I really want the scar tissue to go away, and I also don’t want the scars to stretch and become permanently bigger. I’m also especially concerned about my bellybutton scar getting painfully stretched as my belly grows.
Anyone have any suggestions for things that worked, or any experiences with this in general?

2024.05.18 23:22 theBLEEDINGoctopus I think I poisoned myself

I’m on a 24 hour prescription for my acid reflux, but last night I was dumb and ate Indian food for dinner which always causes me to wake up in the middle of the night with stomach acid filling my mouth.
So I thought I’d try and take Pepcid right before bed to stop it from happening, on top of my prescription med. well it still happened extremely badly and so I took another Pepcid, which didn’t help. And then so i decided to take a third one.
After that I got so ill. Vomiting, diarrhea, fever, chills, body aches, dizziness.
It’s been 12 hours now and I’m still so sick.
Has everyone else ever had this happen?

2024.05.18 22:28 gretchen_tiedermann Diarrhoea after eating junk food

I just finished my 1st month of MJ, almost 7kg down! I had only healthy/light food this month - no junk food and sweets. However, today I decided to have a Big Mac (no chips) because my friends ordered and as soon as it hit my stomach I had stomach aches and diarrhoea... didn’t have these symptoms before with MJ, only mild headaches, constipation and heartburn. Is this normal? Should I be worried?

2024.05.18 21:19 MissEllaPaige Does anyone else worry that they feel this strange 'off' feeling in their body when there's actually nothing wrong?

Does anyone have those days where there's nothing really wrong (no *n, no headache, no upset stomach, nothing) but you just feel strange as if your bodys trying to make you believe somethings wrong then you cant stop focusing on it and believing that you feel strange?
Like sometimes on the very very rare occasions that i dont have any physical symptom that i usually have each day such as *n, indigestion, acid reflux, stomach cramps, gurgling or sensations, headaches, tiredness, discomfort after eating and needing to poop or body pains etc, i just feel so..weird? I cant describe it, its almost like an impending sense of doom that there will be something wrong and already is something wrong i dont know about or is soon to happen, like a sudden result into an illness in the middle of the night or sudden huge wave of anxiety or hard hitting symptoms.
When I feel like this, i dont want to talk to anyone, i feel uncomfortable when i do have to talk to someone and want to get away, i just want to be alone, im not hungry, im not in the mood to do any fun stuff i usually do (sing, dance, talk to friends, listen to music etc), im not interested in anything, i just am so hyperfixated and absorbed into this weird sense of something not being right in my body when im actually fine.
I feel like this right now and I have felt like this for a few hours since i got home from work which is also when all the symptoms i was dealing with throughout the day all finally went, dont get me wrong, last night i fell asleep late because i'd had a gurgly, uncomfortable stomach and what i assume was trapped wind which is pretty normal for me as I can have acid reflux, indigestion symptoms and discomfort after eating and needing to poop frequently pretty much everyday so of course the worry of what happened the night before led onto this morning but wasnt bad at all and i'd had breakfast as normal. I had a cbd gummy as i usually do before work which is always a wonder at removing any anxious feelings but i kept feeling as if i was mildly constipated and still had trapped wind even though i didnt (i usually poop in the morning and thought i needed to but didnt, this was probably the culprit for feeling that way) as i had some on and off stitches and minor discomfort/heavy feeling in my uterus area which only went when i finally went to poop which even then i wasnt desperate for like i usually am to go and was normal and only small, only to be replaced by really bad aching legs that went on until id got home and sat down for a bit.
So the aching legs was making me feel anxious and i hyperfixated on it as i was wondering what had caused it, if it really was in my legs or in my lower abdomen and worried it was linked to everything else that happened before, ate lunch that i wasnt really interested in then went upstairs to see if being by myself would make me feel better which it usually does but ive still had this impending sense that something isnt right even though ive literally been fine, TOO fine, almost as if somethings creeping up on me and is going to strike later on. Everything I felt earlier at work has seemed to have gone now and I have no symptoms that i normally do pretty much all day every day at the minute and even if i did, they are very minor, maybe its because i feel so physically fine for once which is unusual for me to feel is the reason why im worrying that i feel weird and then because im hyperfocusing on the worry that i feel weird, thats why im not really feeling any of my normal symptoms?
I'm not used to not feeling any sort of symptom and it always seems the times where I'm free of any feeling, its replaced with a dwelling sense that I feel strange that I just cant shake even though I'm fine until I finally get hit with a physical symptom to focus on, as if my bodys telling me im TOO fine and should be suspicious and on guard for any feeling, or illness, to come? It's almost like im sat here waiting for a physical symptom to strike to focus on to get rid of the impending sense of feeling strange as thats what my bodys so used to, it's scary, when you get so used to always having some kind of symptom to struggle with everyday, when you're okay for once, i hate it because i instantly worry, especially with all the feelings i dealt with earlier and last night that have suddenly gone, that this is going to end up in me suddenly being unwell.
I have had multiple days of having on and off minor ovulation type pains in my lower uterus area and my periods due in about 8 days so I am chalking a lot of symptoms ive been feeling up to that as I can feel absolutely horrendous on the lead up to my period, so far ive not been too bad but last month was absolutely awful.
Does anyone else feel like this, or at least understand where im coming from because I just feel like im going crazy right now waiting for something to happen even though im okay! 😭

2024.05.18 21:03 Interesting_Gain1482 Feeling HORRIBLE and in pain

How long do the horrible stomach aches last. I almost feel sick. I feel so horrible and I can’t function beyond the most basic life supporting tasks, I can’t even drive like this. Been on this since August for weight loss, non-diabetic. I am at 2 milligram and have been at this dose for three or four weeks. I have had a riproaring upset stomach yesterday and about every other day since Monday. Yesterday was by far the worst. I actually took narcotic pain relievers because the pain was so bad. Today it’s not as bad but I’m still so miserable. Working with small doses of THC to help my stomach not feel so bad. This is injection day for me and I am definitely skipping till my stomach distress passes. I said in another thread that I’m pretty sure it’s my supplements that may have been destroying my stomach, three of them are enteric coated and I have to take them. I’m wondering if the slowed emptying lets them stay in my stomach and hurt it? I skipped everything but what I absolutely have to take. And I’m still miserable again not as bad as yesterday but so horrible. How long after stopping injections does the pain go away? I think I understand that 2 is not my dose at all. Going back down to 1.5 or 1.75, and nothing till my stomach resolves.

2024.05.18 20:34 kyriochey Really bad day

i knew it was going to be a bad day when i went back to sleep 3 times this morning and each time i was drenched in sweat. even now hours later im still so cold it hurts my bones, i get intermittent hot flashes that make me start gagging. my stomach feels off, not like a stomach ache, not hungry, just like it’s completely empty and anytime i move and the stomach acid moves another bout of nausea. i’m still so exhausted even though i woke up at 11:30am and it’s 1:30pm now.
my mom left with her boyfriend and his kids. i moved back home for her to take care of me while my husband is at work. my husband well he’s at work. i have texted them both twice, didn’t get an answer. so i call my mom, she doesn’t answer. i check life 360 because if she’s busy i understand but it’s one of those moments i think i need to got to the ER because this is the first time i’ve felt like this well she’s just walking down the sidewalk a few towns over. i expect my husband to not respond on a sunday as fast as he would normally because he sells cars so the weekends are busier. he has already left work 2 times this week because of how sick i was. the first day i for sure thought it would be a fainting day.
i looked down at my wrist right before posting this and my veins are string thin so i know im dehydrated problem being everyone drank all the waters, im out of powerades so i must just lay here until someone answers my calls or texts.

2024.05.18 20:10 TheBugMn I Have An Intolerance To Nearly Everything and Live In Pain

Hello. Like the title says I have nearly every food intolerance imaginable. Most people I’ve met with food related issues are often celiacs or just have gluten or lactose intolerance. But somehow, someway I have developed some kind of reaction to nearly everything that brings joy. I want to eat a good sandwich or have some beer? No! My body decided it wanted to hate gluten and wheat in particular. I want to eat some peanuts? Every single nut type from walnuts to cashews makes me hurt. Now just these two means that I am unable to consume, without getting in pain, nearly everything in a supermarket. Even things like chocolate and rice have traces of gluten or nuts. Gluten free stuff is also mostly made up of nuts. I wish the list would stop here but it goes on and on so I’ll just list a few examples: Chicken, potatoes, rosemary, beans, mustard, sunflower seeds, hot chillies, soy and so on. So what does eating these do to me? Well I bloat like a pig and get terrible stomach aches. Now okay, I know I am complaining way too much but seriously, these stomach aches are terrible. So terrible that nobody takes me seriously. I often have to scrunch up in my seat and bend so much due to the pain that my face is near my own groin. And the worst, worst part? This pain doesn’t last for a day or two: If I eat something that has gluten for example, I get cramps and aches and bloat every day for nearly two weeks and IN THOSE TWO WEEKS it is very likely I will accidentally consume something that contains one food from the list above without knowing it since people in my country are clueless when it comes to food related issues. So thats it. Thanks for reading.

2024.05.18 19:34 Fair-Ad-9396 How to calm down an anxiety stomach ache?

the past couple days i’ve been having a really nervous stomach, like a kind of pit in my stomach and my hands are shaking as well. This always happens when Im in a relationship because of some attachment issues and such. Im really good at combating the bad thoughts and behaviors, but the stomach ache always lingers. Does anyone know some fast tips to help with this? Breathing techniques, skills or anything? I find TIP skills, usually temperature, to be really helpful but I cant always do that when Im out and about. Its making it hard to function and have fun. Any advice welcome.
