I had a melanoma removed from my arm a while ago.
I display common symptoms of Depression.
I usually sleep during the day.
Today, it occurred to me that my symptoms might be of a vitamin D deficiency.
That would mean that when I get Sun, it tries to kill me and when I don't get Sun, it makes me want to kill myself.
I laughed at this for a good 3 minutes straight today.
The psychology of this has some dark corners but an interesting perspective, to say the least, in today's social climate.
Dunno if any of you still do FB but, if you do, perhaps you'll be surprised to find that the religion, sexuality, and political position fields of your profile have quietly disappeared.
You could always hide that info.
Now they don't offer the option.
They spent so much time telling us to not talk about sex, politics, and religion in civil company when they should have been telling us how to have those conversations civilly. FB is just responding to that choice.
Snowmaggedon London '22-'23 may have come early.

People appear to think the pandemic is over.
Is there an International Women's Day?~
I've got YT Music playing and the video for Dancing With Myself by Billy Idol came on.
Is it weird that my first thought was, "Wow, look at that aspect ratio!"?
I nerf myself with cannabis before leaving the house because y'all aren't ready for me straight. ; )>
"Weaponized incompetence" is my new favourite phrase and concept.
At what point in my supposed adulthood does genuine praise stop feeling like well-intentioned encouragement for the slow kid?
Restating your position is not compelling argumentation for your position.
It's truly dismaying how many possibilities I've noticed there have been to say this to people since I started watching for it. Try it. See how many people in conversation do that.
Example:
Someone recently told me that they wanted to see a particular movie. I asked them why. They said it looked interesting.
"Yes, I gathered that it interested you when you said you wanted to see it. That's what that means. My question was about why it interests you."
I can't tell if this is a recent development or I've just been noticing it recently (like the last few years).
Wondering if there are any thoughts on the matter out there.
*sits up straight*
*clears throat*
*looks directly at the camera*
*leans in to the mic ever so slightly*
And now for something completely the same that we'll convince ourselves is something completely different.
