You'd think that if you go in without pain they shouldn't introduce new pain! I messaged and they're having me come in so they can adjust the filling. Apparently this isn't something where it improves over time. It happens because the filling was placed wrong and has to be fixed. Ugh.

So, that's what's annoying. I didn't have pain before. The only reason I knew I had cavities there was from the x-rays. I got the fillings yesterday, and now there's pain. I'm concerned they screwed up, and I really don't want to go back!!!

$750 later, one of the painless teeth is now painful when I eat. Feels like an exposed nerve. I hope it's temporary!

Not looking forward to getting two fillings OR having to pay for said fillings today. Small cavities I wasn't aware of that weren't causing any pain. On the bright side, I'm glad to be able to take care of it, although it's expensive for us. And there's a new Paris Baguette next door to the dentist!

Six episodes at that length is ridiculous. I feel robbed. Shrinkflation is coming for tv now, too!

Don’t know how many more Shake Shack ads I can see before I give in and get some. I’ve resisted for months, but it’s wearing away at me little by little. A burger and a shake would go a long way in easing the stress of the insanity of daily existence. There’s only so much pressure a lady can take.

RFK Jr’s food pyramid almost makes me want to eat healthier out of spite.

Gene and I don't usually drink, so a few at a holiday party tonight got us home a lil tipsy. At 12:30am, everyone was asleep and long story short I was browsing Doordash, accidentally submitted an order and 10 minutes later eating Taco Bell alone on the couch. That was scary fast & easy 😱

Chronic cannabis use, vomiting and compulsive bathing—symptoms of a hidden syndrome Researchers at the Jane Addams College of Social Work at the University of Illinois Chicago have found that cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome, a vomiting condition tied to chronic cannabis use, rose sh...

So, interesting article--but, mainly, I came here to say that the best and worst thing about the article is that it has taught me that "scromiting" is a word. And it means exactly what you'd expect.

Oh, we are familiar with the Fart Walk 😂

Can't say I love the odor of humans after a Turkey Day feast.

You’re one of the only people I know who regularly posts here, so whenever I remember to check Bluesky I must go back to see what I missed. I have no clue what Ryan Lizza is, so I guess I’ll be googling that and hopefully not regretting it.

Man, the cost benefit analysis for selecting 2026 health insurance is AGONIZING.

Good thing I’m reaching such a wide audience with my message! 😅

Hypocrisy and corruption in the Trump family? Shock! Shock, I tell you!

Feeling super distracted / zero attention span today. Posting on social media is probably not the path to less distraction, is it?

CA friends! Remember to vote YES on Prop 50!

Oh okay good, because that's what I do.

Can't tell if this is sarcasm or not 😂

Which would you choose if these were your two options?

1) iPhone 15 Pro with 1TB storage
2) iPhone 16 Pro Max with 256GB storage

Let's say your current Android phone (Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra) has 512GB and is using 484GB of that...

Thank you :)

Yes, it felt alarming at the time! I had endometriosis many years ago, but never had anything that felt quite like this besides giving birth and having a miscarriage. Fortunately, I'm doing a lot better now!

Woke up with blinding period pain. Went to the restroom and noticed the kitchen light was on, so I went to turn it off, but the pain washed over me. I woke up again confused on the hallway floor, realizing I'd collapsed there. Elbow hurts; I think I fell on it. Heating pad and Aleve. Wish me luck.

I tried to comment on an IG video of JD Vance with these exact words: "Vance is a racist, a hypocrite, and a liar." My comment got flagged for going against community standards. I'm assuming the objectionable word was "racist." Racists act like "racist" is a slur, but what other word is there?

Today I conversed online with a guy who likened universal healthcare to slavery, and a Christian lady who said financial sacrifices required if the Republican spending bill passes--getting her hair and nails done and fancy vacations--are worth it because we must protect our children from Sharia Law.

Before it was illegally destroyed by Musk and co., USAID had a budget of $35 billion (in 2024)

I think we're gonna be okay. She wrote back: "I just listened to the entire video and it was eye opening and hilarious. Having seen and listened to the Meanses I am pretty disgusted by them. Thanks for sending."

My smart but gullible mom just told me she's reading "Good Energy" by Casey & Calley Means. This called for urgent @lastweektonight.com help! I sent her and my dad the episode on MAHA, hopefully steering them away from the MAHA rabbit hole before this gets out of hand🤞. John Oliver is a true hero.

Beyond Burgers are worse than turkey burgers are worse than Impossible Burgers are worse than beef burgers. This is the (abbreviated) burger hierarchy.
