    Oh absolutely. It’s crazy, right?

    A friend of mine has a similar breathing problem, and it was regular occurrence to mention when either one of us “snotted” lol. We both knew that that was literally the best relieving feeling we experienced.

    Do yourself a favor and get into an ENT to find out if something is fixable with medicine or if it’ll require surgery. I researched best ENTs specifically looking for those who were the best rated for surgery in my area. Happily went out of my way to find one, completely expecting to need surgery. I could tell he was not wanting to break the news I could only fix it with surgery but I immediately wanted to schedule it and he was a bit taken aback lol.

    Nope, my breathing problems were never helped by anything like Afrin. If anyone, only saline spray or neti pot seemed to help. The valves in my nose were the most significant issue but then in my sinuses, my ENT/surgeon said, and I quote, “it was all jacked up in there” 😂😂😂 I do appreciate he recognized the casual approach was best with me, even if I understood the technical bits about the procedures.

    This meme pains me. Have had two surgeries on my nose and sinuses to help this, but I had an S-shaped septum and weak cartilage surrounding my nasal valves. Breathing in collapsed one valve, breathing out collapsed the other, and that had happened pretty much my entire life. So much better now, but my breathing will never be “normal”.

    This was from 2 years ago by the looks of it (found a Reddit post of this from 2y ago, can’t see the date on mobile though). It just was coincidental there was another one literally today too in the early morning hours.

    Also a tornado warning will never last that long (over 15 hours), it’s generally 15 to 30 min and very location specific. It may be longer if there’s a long chain of storms all showing signs of active circulation on the way through, but anything over an hour is pretty rare, even in tornado alley.

    I come from pre-T9 SMS and yes, DMs are “texting”. Texting doesn’t refer to a protocol or transport, it’s a message type. Holding onto texting only being SMS when it’s a dying communication method worldwide is just silly. Did we originally mean SMS and only SMS? Yes. But definitions expand regularly and you don’t want to be left behind because your clutching your digital pearls of old definitions.





  • Funnily enough I was in the path of totality at home and my eyes burnt afterwards despite going everything right. Was very confused. Took me a while to realize my eyes burnt from my dumbass neighbors having a bonfire and were burning leaves. I only realized later while grilling when the smoke from that got in my face and gave me the same sensation. Lol. Eyes are fine, just had some temporary irritation at exactly the worst time for my anxiety.
