The wraparound torture shoes are knockoffs of some famous label; can't remember who but think I saw them on a Kardashian.

My blue morpho sandals came! I think they're pretty cute:



The wings are maybe not as vertical as I'd expected, but a little light fluffing and they're fine. The sandals fit well and are comfortable, too (so far). Imma wear them to my first post-vax party this weekend. Thanks again for sharing them with the thread!

THEY ARE SO BEAUTIFUL!!!!

Bo Burnham use one of these in «Inside». Watch «Inside» it was great.


I just bought some keycaps for my number row. My keyboard looks great with black print on charcoal keys. But while I can touch type, I sometimes need to glance on the numbers and characters on the top row and that combination is close to unreadable in anything less than great light. Keyboard not from Ali.

Just buy some silcone molds for mechanical keys and make horribly inept resin keys like me.

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005001877389247.html

They work well, but dont, uh, stick on like the "real" things? I don't think this will usually be an issue, but I'm sure to drop something, pick up my keyboard to look for it, and dump keys on the floor eventually. Of course, I've only ever done like 2 resin pours, including this one, so it may be user error.

I plan on dyeing some alphabet noodles and floating them in there to really make it look like a child made my keyboard.

Irukandji Syndrome
Dec 26, 2008
A friend of mine was like "haha I wonder what kind of hellish toilet paper they sell on aliexpress" so I looked it up and it was just relatively boring stuff like Trump's face printed on 1-ply. But in the related, I saw... this.



Um.

It has directions for its use.



If you are allergic to pain, you should not beat it :colbert:

I legitimately thought it was some sort of BDSM sex toy at first, but then the related items are full of similar things all labeled for medicinal use of some kind:



I was like, "maybe this is just a weird back massager".



This feels kind of like something from Rick and Morty.







This is arguably the most ominous-looking one, while simultaneously still managing to look like a hosed up sex toy:





A lot of these seem to be connected to something called Gua Sha, a type of TCM where you scrape areas of the skin to "release unhealthy bodily matter from blood stasis within sore, tired, stiff or injured muscle areas to stimulate new oxygenated blood flow to the areas, thus promoting metabolic cell repair, regeneration, healing and recovery." It does not have any scientific basis that we're aware of and can potentially cause serious harm.

I don't want to sound sinophobic with any of this, don't get me wrong. I'm sure TCM has its uses, but I do feel like calling it Beating Stick and heavily implying you're supposed to beat someone with it until their pain tolerance maxes out is ill-advised.

Speaking of Gua Sha, found a stick.





It honestly doesn't look bad for scratching your back, but then there is this INCREDIBLY OMINOUS image that suggests heating it to 250 degrees celcius.



I hope that's just for sterilizing it :gonk:

I heard that in parts of Russia there's a tradition of whipping with tree shoots in public baths, supposedly it helps the blood circulation.

I wouldn't be surprised if mild flagellation as a folk remedy is practiced around the world as it's cheap and pain releases endorphins.

That said using a thick solid rod seems dangerous.

You are supposed to jam these up against your cervix! That is what the instructions say!



That's right! Put loving frankincense in there! Hell yeah!



How long did you say to leave it in again?!



Oh sure okay just FOURTY EIGHT loving HOURS

Just in case anyone here isn't familiar, you're not supposed to leave a tampon in for more than 8 hours or you can get toxic shock syndrome.

I know Ali didn't come up with this poo poo, it was probably goddamn Gwyneth Paltrow again, but the idea of getting bootleg detox tampons off Ali makes it so much worse somehow.

I don't know about public baths and some parts of Russia, but vihtas/vastas are a big part of the luxurious Finnish sauna experience.



Tie up some branches, wet them and go to town. I don't know about the health benefits but the smell is very nice and it feels neat.

And I don't think any NEW DISEASES have ever entered my body afterwards but what do I know, I'm not a TCM guru.

So instead of shoving something useful and absorbent up there, you use some herbs and spices? There are jokes available about garlic and vampires, blood sausage and eating placentas, but I think it's unnecessary.

Reminds me of the tampons coated in a layer of CBD oil. Still don't know if those work.

So here's a weird one. I bought a friend's kid some fortnite lego men, and they all have bits in the bags to build... weapons? Structures, maybe? They aren't official in any capacity, and I don't know the first drat thing about fortnite. Any suggestions on where I might find instructions or even just pictures? The store I bought them from is gone, all links dead, and the image is heads-only.

In Anne Rice's vampire novels, the slave owner cum vampire lestat is known for sucking the menstruation out of a person's orifice. Maybe this is some spiced up vampire roleplay they have going on here?
