SUPERMAN'S GAL PAL posted:Photoshop. That said, lipedema is a real condition and while obesity can be a factor anyone can get it provided the genetics and hormones are “right” (it runs in families and is much more prevalent when estrogen and progesterone are dominant which is why you see it mainly in middle-aged and older women). Women with lipedema are at a higher risk for obesity because of the way fat stubbornly collects in their lower extremities, but they still have to consume an excess of calories for that fat to accumulate. Lipedema is no more the cause of that's woman's physical state than a genetic tendency toward heart disease is of killing someone at 38 after a lifelong habit of eating fried chicken and lard for dinner every night.

Yeah but, again, that's really the least of her concerns. She's obese to the point that she might not even have lipedema. Uneven fat distribution is common in people that heavy simply because the body kinda freaks out and doesn't know what to do when it reaches such extremes.

cash crab posted:Also, I didn't notice the cat until you pointed it out. That picture is like a Where's Waldo of sad personal decisions. The worst parts are definitely the overturned scratching post and the festival bag rupturing under the strain of serving as an improvised trash can. The perplexed kitty looks healthy and well cared for, though, so that's a plus.

cash crab posted:I like the idea that God is a perfect designer, since he also created men (who have nipples and the majority of their reproductive equipment dangling vulnerably within kicking distance) and also the three-toed sloth, who is so slow that it grows mold and sometimes drowns because it can't paddle when it inevitably falls asleep in, and then falls out of, a tree. My favorite example of "stupid stuff god made," is the recurrent laryngeal nerve: a cranial nerve that innervates the throat and larynx, but loops underneath the aorta because evolution is a butt. It exists in all terrestrial vertebrates, so giraffes have one that's like twenty feet long.

Bertrand Hustle posted:How?! Per Wikipedia, quote:Otomycosis is a fungal ear infection, a superficial mycotic infection of the outer ear canal. It is more common in the tropical countries. The infection may be either subacute or acute and is characterized by malodorous discharge, inflammation, pruritus, scaling, and severe discomfort. Suppuration can occur due to superimposed bacterial infection commonly due to pseudomonas species and proteus species. The mycosis results in inflammation, superficial epithelial exfoliation, masses of debris containing hyphae, suppuration, and pain. Fungal infections can spread through the air or direct contact, depending on the variety. So, if you touch a contaminated surface or scratch your infected foot and then stick that finger in your ear—BOOM—potential face fungus. Anyhoo, since this is the AUG thread, have a picture of some ear shrooms:

Kullik posted:I had a thought about making a thread somewhere where i talk about their weird internal conflict between "sadbox" and "hugbox" where basically some people paint fluffies as sympathetic and with some level of depth and others just want to jerk of to dead/dying fantasy creatures. I never did it because i have zero confidence in my posting and i dunno where that would even go. You see the same thing with a lot of fetishes. There's always a contingent that ties elevate it beyond the level bizarre boner material. The ones that are really successful can even reach full-blown lifestyle proportions—BDSM, Bodymod, Furries, etc.—obtaining a measure of community and broad appeal. Something tells me fluffy ponies lacks the oomph to make it over that particular hurdle.

Growing up, I lived in a house only a few degrees shy of that one—similar state of clutter and disrepair, but less squalor—and I spent plenty of time hanging out with people in places just like it. The people you meet who're stuck living like that, it's not that they don't try, but that they never really had a chance to begin with.

I remember reading a personal account from a young woman whose father found one of her tampons and started shouting at her until she managed the very awkward explanation that it was not, in fact, a sex toy. Apparently, he was utterly baffled by the concept. A grown man, with a daughter. Bobby Digital posted:Nebraska did that a few years ago. And the issue wasn't the number, but the age. They forgot to add an age limit to their law so kids ranging from 11-17 were getting dumped at hospitals by their lovely parents.

Giant Bomb's very own Dan Ryckert won this contest. He and his wife Bianca did indeed get married in the Taco Bell chapel in Vegas. It's a lot less AUG than you'd expect. Dan is a weird guy, but he's very self-aware and honest about how most of his adult life has been a slow process of learning how not to be an idiot. When the subject came up on one of GB's podcasts, I recall someone asking him how his then-fiancee felt about the idea, and his response was roughly, "she's cool with it. We've been together for years, so she knows what I'm about by this point." To give you some sense of his character, here is Dan's infamous Egg Whites story.

T-man posted:Also now I'm thinking about Post Your Favorite Fetish. Good idea or bad idea raccoon mom? My go-to for this topic is always  MEET TOMMY: An Exploration of Private Body Modification and Play. It's a series of interviews and personal accounts from the extreme body mod community compiled by Shannon Larratt, a cool and very forthright dude who unfortunately died of a rare muscular disease. The book is fascinating, and there's a free PDF version in the link, but fair warning, it gets pretty gnarly. There are pictures. As an example of the things you can expect to encounter, there are several stories about individuals or couples using a Burdizzo. It's a tool for castrating farm animals and—surpise—it also works on humans. Honestly, probably the most AUG thing about the book is how infrequently people involved in the community consult with doctors after performing what amounts to self-surgery.

Metaline posted:My husband was friends with Shannon for decades and he unfortunately died from suicide, not from his illness. He did? Mea culpa, I thought it was the myopathy, but still, that sounds more like euthanasia than suicide considering what the disease was doing to him. The description of his pain from the last blog he posted is pretty horrific, Shannon Larratt posted:The last three or four years have been a daily struggle, beginning with a multi-layered pain made up of a never-ending, never-lulling dull throbbing from the core of my muscles beginning in my legs and eventually spreading out over my entire body, coupled with a constant burning sensation in my skin that made it impossible for me to feel anyone’s touch without it being a bitter agony. If that was my daily experience, I don't know if I'd make it even three or four months before heading for the exit. Edit: On reflection, I probably should have clued in based on the content of that very blog post, but in my defense, it is a tough read. Skippy McPants has a new favorite as of 10:19 on Nov 7, 2018 |

His wife happened to be one of the vets and they hit it off. It's weird that she's a Republican, but I can understand why Oliver would be willing to overlook that, The Daily Beast posted:When Oliver was offered his current gig hosting his own show, Last Week Tonight with John Oliver, at HBO, his Daily Show departure was huge entertainment news. But as Oliver tells it, Norley knew just how to keep him humble. As the comedian was making a career-defining move, his wife was on emergency deployment in the Philippines as a first responder to Typhoon Haiyan. “I got to speak to her once on this spotty satellite phone,” he recalls, “and she’s saying, ‘We had to do emergency C-sections and amputations and there are dead bodies everywhere, it’s worse than people are letting on, it’s just death, death, everywhere.’ And there’s no point at which you can go, ‘I’ve got some news as well!’ It just doesn’t matter.”

I'd loved to call that poo poo that didn't happen, but life experience has shown me too many times that those events are well within the realm of possibility. Much as it sucks to grow up and realize your parents are backwards and bigoted, I can't imagine how horrid it is for a parent to watch one of their kids fall into that abyss and feel powerless to pull them back out.

People who aren't racist but end up with racist children will often overcompensate and fall all over themselves trying to prove to you that they're not racist out of shame and a deep seeded fear that they did something very wrong in bringing up their broken kid. Sometimes they did. Sometimes they didn't. Either way, it is a poisonous brand of insecurity. Edit: To be clear, I'm not implying that I know for certain if the story is real or accurate, only that nothing about it falls outside the realm of plausibility for me.
