Appreciate the response, and- gross!

Wish you a speedy recovery and solid poo.

I wasn't sure, so I went ahead and I checked the guest-list for this specific corner of the discussion and surprisingly- you’re not on it. Meaning- No one invited you to come here and pretend that you have any part in it.

Yet here you are, accusing me of being uncivil in response to your little temper-tantrum?

I get the feeling that there’d be far less people like you around here if self-awareness was implemented as mandatory curriculum. But I digress….

As for your disdain of my penchant for colorful parlance? Well, verily without prompt, I perpend that though mayest o’er-rauhot thine aversion to proclivity and hastily fornicate thyself with nigh but the expertly expedience of one so deserved of such an unpregnant act.

And now, so as to avoid having to suffered the slings and arrows of your outrageous aspersions,

I bid thee….

a day.

Now, go ahead with your bait tactics. I love seeing what little tricks you all try to use to goad me into the argument you crave so dearly.

It’s like I can predict the future! (Naaah. It’s just that you’re so darned predictable!)

Oh, to add:

Rule 1 says to be “civil and nice” but we both know that only pertains to people on the other side of your argument.

Oh make no mistake, I have no desire whatsoever to waste my time trying to illustrate the concept of nuance in a discussion here. Whether it be about politics or government operated socio-economic systems- I’ve been on lemmy long enough to see how you all operate here, and debate on these topics is an exercise is abject futility.

I’m simply here, for no other purpose than to warn a fellow user before they fall victim to the time-sink that is debating with pseudo-socialists and communists….

Nothing more.

Now, go ahead with your bait tactics. I love seeing what little tricks you all try to use to goad me into the argument you crave so dearly.

We’ve reached the point where every random thought a person can have is now a meme.

AI isn’t art, so… no.

You just have to love those analogies where the author always ends up being the hero of the story.

So you’re all about side-stepping the question, aren’t you?

[–] Pratai@lemmy.world -3 points 3 hours ago (3 children)

That’s just a dash.

And reality shows that if the protest voters had enough common sense to realize our democracy was at stake, Harris would have won.

I’m not talking about the would-be Trump voters who sat out. I’m talking specifically about the assholes who would have voted against trump, and were given every promise that he would do EXACTY what he is doing now- and still chose not to.

I’m talking about the fuckwits that knew what we were up against, and decided they’d rather punish an entire country for not producing their depiction of a flawless candidate.

 

As a result of having an antibiotic-resistant case of chronic sinusitis, I’m having to get an endoscopic sinus surgery along with septoplasty, turbinate reduction, and a few other related procedures on the 15th….

and my anxiety is going nuts!

As of now, I’ve got severe pressure in my ears causing tinnitus, pressure behind my eyes, headaches, and all-over body aches. All of my sinus cavities are infected or so the CT scan shows- so I know I absolutely need to have this procedure, but I’m so worried!

At 51 years old, I’ve never had surgery before in my life.Never been touched by a scalpel. Essentially… I’ve lived in my safe little bubble all this time without having ever had to deal with anything even remotely close to this- and it’s driving me batty!

I’ve tried going over this with my ENT and even explaining to him that I’m on the spectrum, and but he’s incredibly dismissive.

Is there anyone here that’s got some positive energy they can send my way? Maybe some stories of similar procedures? Some advice? Or at least some reasons why I shouldn’t be so worried? I really could use some reassurance here.
