- Comment on Is their any evolutionary benefit to the sneezing reflex when looking at a bright light source, or is it just an evolutionary glitch with no purpose? 3 weeks ago:
TIL. I’ve heard a similar thing about certain smells being closely tied with the memory centre in the brain.

No, sneezing, as in the photic sneeze reflex. If I look at the sun by accident I’ll sneeze.

- Comment on Do you think a story that mixes magic with super advanced technology can work? 4 weeks ago:
Yes. It’s worked very well in the recent Zelda games
- Comment on Are standing seats on airliners actually going to be a thing? 4 weeks ago:
Would inclusivity to people with disabilities/medical safety be included in those regulations?

Yeah I really can’t see how they could bring him back in a way that seems plausible. Really enjoyed Carrey’s performance though
- Comment on Low quality cropping will officially launch on Lemmy in 2025 4 weeks ago:
I’m skinny and I’ll pass out in less than an hour. Have severe POTS from EDS, heart went into asystole after 35 minutes into a tilt table test and they had to put me back down. I’ve passed out several times in other settings.
- Comment on Low quality cropping will officially launch on Lemmy in 2025 4 weeks ago:
It can even be dangerous for some people to be in a standing position for too long. I have a severe case of POTS caused by a genetic disorder. My heart stopped during a tilt table test, which is where I was forced to remain in a standing position. If I’m expected to pay more for a normal seat just because I’m disabled, that’s ableism.
- Comment on Low quality cropping will officially launch on Lemmy in 2025 4 weeks ago:
Why should I have to be forced to pay more for sitting seats just because I have a disability? We shouldn’t be normalising this.
- Comment on Low quality cropping will officially launch on Lemmy in 2025 4 weeks ago:
What about people like myself who have POTS and can’t be in a standing position for too long? My heart can legit stop causing me to pass out if I’m standing for too long.

Another reason I’ll never use Facebook. It’s been a hellsite for a long time

Was about to say this too. Can’t tell a difference between most games made in 2013 vs 2023.
- Comment on My brain fog makes me feel so stupid that I'm seriously considering trying speed 2 months ago:
I’ve had so many blood tests done when they were trying to figure out what was wrong with me pre POTS/EDS/CFS diagnosis
- Comment on My brain fog makes me feel so stupid that I'm seriously considering trying speed 2 months ago:
You described it so well! That’s exactly how I feel. I understand how frustrating it is, especially when it happens in public because people make so many assumptions. Thanks for the kind words ❤️
- Comment on My brain fog makes me feel so stupid that I'm seriously considering trying speed 2 months ago:
I have, but doctors don’t suspect it. I find my brain fog correlates to episodes of bad circulation/low blood volume, in that it gets worse whenever my blood volume or circulation is low/bad. How did they diagnose you with MCAS and is it easily treatable? Thanks
- Comment on My brain fog makes me feel so stupid that I'm seriously considering trying speed 2 months ago:
It really is. I’m aware of every mistake I’m making but it’s like trying to move my fingers rapidly when they’re too cold, I can’t stop it. Thanks for telling me about the ME community, I’ll check it out!
