I got all excited that Saint Seiya was on Netflix, and then realized it was the Hades OAVs, and not the original TV series. I just want an easily accessible, uncut version (that isn't the terrible new subbed release), is that so much to ask?

Apparently it is impossible to find tax forms here anymore, without having to print them up, and I do not own a printer. So I had to pay to file them online, which is $20 I really didn't want to spend right now.

I decided I wanted to reread the Wheel of Time books. Only sometime between 2013 and now, my local library apparently stopped putting the first book's physical copy out. So I had to get the CD audio book, which they still have. I wouldn't normally mind but the reader for this one makes me sleepy. I'll probably have to renew my check out, because I don't know if I can power through all 30 hours in two weeks with this dude lulling me to sleep.

My son loves pesto, and we bought a brand we'd never used before. He's also allergic to spinach. Something possessed me to look at the ingredient list when I was making dinner the other night, and lo and behold. Spinach. It's not a problem that I didn't send my kid to the ER by way of pesto, but drat it, that's a whole jar I can't use now.

Mikl posted:I absolutely feel this. Yeah. His allergy is easy enough to deal with usually, since Surprise Spinach isn't as common as, say, Surprise Corn or Surprise Peanuts. But when it does crop up, it's preeeetty annoying. We have multiple food allergies and intolerances to deal with in the household (peanuts, lactose, spinach, carrots) so we're usually pretty good at checking ingredient lists, but we're so used to pesto being a safe option that this jar slipped by.

I've been developing more and more allergies, and cross reactions to already existing allergies over the past couple of years. It sucks, because it seems to be taking out several of my favorite foods. My son went to an apple orchard on a field trip today, and I washed all the apples, then settled in for one after he went to bed. Surprise, OAS. My tongue feels like it's trying to shed an entire layer of skin at once.

Gamestop's website (yes yes I know, Gamestop is awful whatever) is seemingly convinced I live in Kentucky. No matter how many times I set my home store as the one close to me, it's always back to this one random Kentucky store the next time I go back. It's a tad annoying.

DicktheCat posted:I'm tired, I'm always tired. It could be worth getting a sleep study done. There are several disorders that can make it seem like you're getting enough sleep, but you're not actually getting enough truly restful sleep. Things like sleep apnea or narcolepsy. It might not be something related to your sleeping, but it's best to rule it out, especially if it's been going on so long.

Depression, including suicidal depression, erectile dysfunction, severe mood swings, physical pain. The shot people are referring to in that case had some no joke bad side effects, not just making a few guys a bit "moody". Also, afik, one guy hadn't returned to a normal level of sperm production even years out from the trials, so it could also be not quite as "Take when you don't want kids, stop when you do!", and more "This could permanently or semipermanently affect your fertility." Studies are still moving along, so there will be an option eventually, but just because they maybe weren't as rigorous on studying female contraceptives doesn't mean they should just push one out on the market for men. They should instead have, you know, been more rigorous with the female contraceptives as well.

I've done it multiple times in the past decade, and it's pretty much never simple. And it seems to be a Infinite Trash Generator.

It's more the downstairs neighbor has already called the cops on us once because my son is 6' and doesn't seem to realize it, and walks with all the subtlety of an elephant (seriously, the complaint was "stomping"). If I dropped a 100+ lb barbell by accident, I'd probably end up with the SWAT team busting down my door.

Cowslips Warren posted:Is there any loving company who doesn't use child or slave labor? It's something I'm struggling with in a few ways, both my own ethics and my not being a whacko. Yeah, there's pretty much no ethical consumption under capitalism, but I try to do the best I can to source sustainably derived, not owned by pure evil products. But even then, probably some of the things in those products are compromised in some way. Or I find out later that they were bought out. The "not a whacko" part comes in with hooooly crap is it hard to find a sustainably sourced, as ethically okay to me as I can get toothpaste that isn't also fluoride free and alternative medicine out the rear end.
