The stability tricks me into thinking it wasn't so bad before was it? Than I remember the sleepless nights and the copious amount of drugs I'd have to take to just sleep or shut it off for a moment. Also how aggregated and aggressive I'd become. Push my body and my mind until they popped.

Certainly don't miss those bits. Mine was more frequent and not as serve, so it really helped me get things done and went unnoticed. Than one got really bad and it wasn't fun anymore. Decided I couldn't live like this anymore.

Happy I made the change, but still a struggle to keep to it. But the people around me really like the new me and I don't put everyone on edge anymore. That's important to me.

US version:

I'm here for a paycheck and insurance so I can afford medication to not die.

Because I need to pay my high medical deductible, daycare expenses, mortgage, and a car payment that adds up to about $60,000 a year from my yearly income of $65,000 gross before taxes.

Oh yeah and the coffee is free, which helps, because rich people tell us all this burden would go away if we didn't buy Starbucks so often.

A Galaxy-class starship such as the USS Enterprise-D normally had a complement of approximately 1,000-6,000 crewmembers, including civilian residents and families.

I concur, sex in nature is sometimes a dominance, boredom, or mostly straight up rape. There are situations where a chimp used a frogs mouth to masturbate with and accounts of dolphins humping fish and people. These two are the height of intelligence in the animal kingdom and they are still messed up.

The first statement of the meme is dumb. The response equates homosexuality to just fucking. Which in reality is much more complex in humans and includes love and relationships. For animals it's mostly simple primal urges to hump something for self gratification.

Don't worry the paramedics are just out of frame juggling medical equipment.

Artist Ian Miller (sh.itjust.works)

Ian Miller (born 1946, London) is a British illustrator renowned for his dense, gothic, and surreal pen-and-ink style. Emerging in the early 1970s, he became a defining visual voice in fantasy and science fiction publishing, illustrating works by Ray Bradbury, H.P. Lovecraft, and J.R.R.Tolkien, and contributing to Heavy Metal and early Warhammer concept art.

The artwork used as the thumbnail for this post was created for the book cover "R is for Rocket" written by Ray Bradbury a titan among 20th-century American writers, a titan among 20th-century American writers. This piece was one of Ian Miller’s early commissions at the start of his career. He went on to illustrate additional covers for Bradbury and Lovecraft around this period.

Here, I’m focusing on his early works and later reworks of the same books to highlight his stylistic evolution during the 1970s.

1972 "R is for Rocket" published by Pan Books.

1972 "S is for Space" published by Pan Books.

These covers were later redesigned by Ian Miller for Bantam Books.

1978 "R is for Rocket" published by Bantam Books.

1978 "S is for Space" published by Bantam Books

It’s fascinating to see Miller’s evolution between these editions! From his early surrealism into the darker, more intricate gothic geometry that would become his trademark.

Below are more examples of his art, but I highly encourage exploring his portfolio further and watch his interview. Miller’s work has left a lasting mark on the visual language of science fiction, horror, and fantasy alike. Share your favorites!
