What I recognized as "brain shocks" when I was taking generic escitalipram (Lexapro) would be a feeling sort of like a short circuit in my brain for a quick flash of a moment. Like another commenter said, quick movements of my eyes or head could cause it. It was quick, and non lingering, but could happen frequently. Just a little bzzt! In the brain with a little visual stutter. It didn't hurt but it was disconcerting until I realized it was normal when missing or cutting down doses. Sounds like it can happen for some people on the normal dose but that wasn't an issue for me.

Amazon customer service used to be amazing. Now it's clearly designed to frustrate you into giving up trying. Assholes.

Yes, in practicality, this is it.

I'll start by saying I agree with all your points. And I wasn't able to find info about the median height, but the average height of American men is actually 5'9. Which including women would bring it down quite a bit. That said, as a 5'7 shorty, I hate the small space in seats. Based on your post I'm guessing your height is around 6'2" (I must know if I'm close!), so you truly have my sympathy sitting in those sardine can aluminum tubes.

It's easy to believe you're invincible in your twenties. Or "later me can deal with it.". As that later version of me, I'm not a huge fan of that earlier version in a lot of ways. It's fine, I'm who I am for what I went through, and I'm righting the ship. But the more cans you kick down the road, the more you have to deal with later and the harder they are to deal with. Physically, mentally, financially. It's ok to try to live life freely, but definitely be aware of this and consider kicking one less can every chance you get.

You might get differing answers due to the payment portion of the scenario, but here's my 2 cents.

No, there's nothing morally wrong here at any level to me. This is legally ok as far as the ages go, pretty much everywhere.

As long as there's no power dynamic being abused, and both sides are consenting, go for it.

Hope they properly bolted in the door plugs

Where do you live that this is real?

Electric vehicle designed with extra difficult to break windows traps driver when submerged in water. Seems pretty straight forward to me. I get that it's tempting to think something nefarious and suspicious is happening, but I'll take poor planning and lack of thought around safety almost every time.

I feel like this is exactly what the most disruptive members are wanting. Maybe I'm just being cynical and this is way off point, but it feels to me like they want a non-functioning federal government. This entire shit show is the plan. The wrench in the gears.

She was certainly trying to pull it off in that theater

I felt that at first but I've found the engagement to be more meaningful here when it does happen, even though it's sometimes sparse or not at all. I came in the previous influx after spez started forcing subs open. I don't really miss it that much now.
