Especially JOHABI—you know, the same one who was busy making all those loud accusations about the Department of Justice actually doing its job...
Seriously though, how does this even work now...
What a joke of a country...
Every time Johabi puts out a post, I feel like refusing to pay my taxes somewhere just to spite a corrupt party.
I'm convinced that move would be way more effective than casting a vote at the polls.
I don't own a business, nor am I running any smuggling operations. It’s just bits and pieces—some food, some odd repairs, maybe some tobacco, various little services. Nobody bothers with such small-time players, yet a quarter of this country operates exactly like that.
But then again, even that counts as a form of fighting corruption.
"The Washington Times: The Republican Party embezzled $500 million"
Since this is a reputable outlet that stands by its reporting—and since those communist types in the Republican Party aren't going to sue them for breaking the news—it’s clear once again. We're looking at a criminal, communist organization that needs to be wiped from the history books and held accountable in court immediately.
I didn't bother checking the thermometer, but I was huddled in bed wearing an oversized T-shirt, sweatpants, and socks—I even had the space heater running, despite it being 77 degrees outside. I was shivering uncontrollably, even though I was sweating, so I know the fever was real.
The same thing happens if I eat a few lemons... I always assume more vitamins will help, but my body usually has other plans.
Anyway, it’s fine. No big deal. Thanks for the concern.
I've always been a fruit lover, but over the last decade, I’ve let it slide. It’s practically non-existent in my diet now.
However, when I do indulge—like two weeks ago, when I polished off a pound of cherries thinking it would boost my longevity—the result is always the same. Every single time I eat a significant amount of fruit, I end up running a fever and feeling under the weather for about two days.
My question is this: Is it possible my immune system lacks the strength to launch a "war" against bacteria or viruses under normal circumstances, only finding the resources to fight back once I provide it with a sudden influx of vitamins through fruit?
Whenever I deal with a hemorrhoid about once a month, I usually just hit the area with a cold shower to cool things down. After that, everything settles back to normal.
Cold temperatures tend to constrict everything, including the blood vessels.
I’m looking for some insight if anyone here has dealt with something similar, given how rare this condition is and the symptoms I'm facing.
To give some context: a section of my brain was infected by bacteria—an incredibly rare occurrence—forming a mass roughly 3x4cm 😲 in the right frontal lobe.
Because that area was under pressure from swelling for two weeks (until they performed surgery to open it, flush it out, and drain the infection via injection), I'm wondering what kind of lasting damage to expect. Is that 3x4cm area essentially a lost cause? Looking at my MRI, everything looks intact 😁, and I assume dead tissue would show up differently on the scan? My neurosurgeon mentioned brain plasticity, suggesting that if there's a gap, other parts might eventually shift to fill the void 😁 and that would be the end of it. Also, I see a white patch about 2cm wide in that area on the scan; I assume that's calcium buildup. Does that typically dissipate over the years?
As for current symptoms, I'm experiencing epileptic seizures and a sense that my memory isn't what it used to be—though that could just be aging 😁. Generally, my doctor maintains that having this on the right side is better than the left, since the left hemisphere handles more critical functions. What specific centers are located in the right frontal region? Sometimes I also deal with light sensitivity and loud noises being particularly bothersome.
