I had the same experience recently when I ordered their Mc nuggets.

I couldn't finish a 10 piece, the taste was so bad. Not even the dipping sauce could mask it.

That air freshener analogy is right on point.

Then, that's truly scary. I thought perhaps there was a chance it was a one-off, though I didn't think it likely. But you're confirming my fears.

I looked up when I got home yesterday, searching "why does McDonald's food taste weird," and this particular chemical kept coming up related to fastfood in general: phthalates

If rule 34 of the internet dictates that literally ANYTHING can be made into porn, how long will it be before somebody makes TronNerd82 porn?

Cuz if it doesn't happen soon, the world's gonna find out how badly I draw lol

I haven't been around much because my senior cat has been very sick for the past two weeks. She spent 9 days in the vet hospital. I've sold a whole bunch of stuff to pay the vet bill but we still owe $640. The veterinarian has been very understanding and lets us pay what we can when we can but she may need exploratory surgery because all of the tests and imaging they've done have been inconclusive. That would tack on another $350, upwards of $550 if they need to do biopsies.

I started a GoFundMe for help but I don't know if it's allowed to be shared here.
This is pretty much the only other community I visit outside of Facebook.

She's going in for a 3 day checkup in a little bit and the vet will probably want to discuss surgery plans.
I'm probably going to be off for a bit again after this. Playing games seems so inconsequential right now.

I have seen many mentions of AT fields in Eva, but I can't tell exactly what they are.

Sometimes it seems AT field is another name for 'soul', but in the case of 3rd Impact it seems to be something different...
The angels' AT fields just appear to be force fields of some kind.
Are they the same AT fields that are mentioned everywhere else?

I interpreted them as that world's version of souls, too. Every living being has one, but they're different from Western religions' souls in that they have physical and metaphysical characteristics.

ChatGPT has an explanation:

In the anime series Neon Genesis Evangelion, AT fields, or Absolute Terror fields, are a major concept and core element of the series. They are a type of protective energy barrier that exists around every living being, including both humans and the mysterious beings called Angels.

AT fields are described as a barrier that separates individuals from one another, making them distinct entities. They are unique to each individual and serve as a form of defense against attacks, both physical and psychological, from others. AT fields can also be used offensively, allowing individuals to project their own barriers to override or destroy the AT fields of others.

In the context of the series, the AT fields play a significant role in the battles between the Evangelions, the giant bio-mechanical robots, and the Angels. Understanding and controlling AT fields becomes crucial for the success of the pilots and the defense of humanity. Ultimately, the exploration and deconstruction of AT fields is deeply intertwined with the psychological and philosophical themes of the series.

NGE is one of the only animes I've seen. It was great. Definitely needed to read wikis to understand wtf happened in that last episode, though

Maybe weird but when l buy chips (crisps lol).

I take my time feeling multiple bags to get a sense regarding their
"crushed" level. I'm mostly "lucky" but sometimes you just get a bag of crumbs.

Maybe try another store. Some workers just treat chips like shit and push them in the shelves.

My 2 cents

Seems like an technological integrated manifestation of visualizing a protective barrier against "bad forces" to have that capability you really have to be in tune and it takes a lot of practice. Technology can negate that process.

Just spitballing.

Then again, aren't the EVA's biological by default. Perhaps they are developed as such it comes instinctively.

I’m going to cut out as much internet/technology as I can for a while. No social media, no posting, no searching, no news. I just need a break for a while so I can try live a slower more simple life.

I might not last a day lol but I’m going to give it a shot.

See ye all later!

quick edit: just as I wrote this my internet cut out lmao! Perfect timing.

Start my job tomorrow. I have a medical condition that makes heat unbearable and there's a heatwave. I suppose it can't get any worse.

Night manager: "So you'll be starting tomorrow and you'll be working in the furnace department"

Cheers mate, nice one.

Do you know what really makes me so, so happy during my daily walk? what's really the bee's knees?

Dog corpses on the side of the fucking street. So amazing. Especially when no one at least takes the poor thing and gives it a proper burial, nope just fresh fucking roadkill with flies all over it..

Nothing like seeing mankind's complete and utter disregard for its "best friend", just placed there to ruin brighten up my day. So good.

I need a shower.

Fucked my ankle. Hit it right on the fucking bone and it was one of those sore ones that you just want to cry lol. It's bleeding and swollen.

Also I'm still recovering from drinking last night. Today was rough and I can't stand the thought of a drink. I feel sick :(
