"So long, a-Bowser!...hey what-a the fuck!? Mamma mia!!"

"We have deluded ourselves into believing the myth that capitalism grew ... out of the Protestant ethic of hard work and sacrifice. The fact is that capitalism was built on the exploitation and suffering of black slaves and continues to thrive on the exploitation of the poor."
- Martin Luther King

artists hold immeasurable storytelling power. well-educated artists are a genuine threat to the establishment, and that's why so much time and money is spent on dissuading people from pursuing a life among the arts

this is not to discourage you from taking it, but rather meant to encourage you to keep an ongoing dialogue with your psych and your PCP

be ready to make adjustments as needed, and don't be afraid to talk about what's better AND what's worse so it can be accounted for :)

as someone who has taken it:

Lexapro will help with anxiety, but i found after a few months that it dulled ANY emotion. it made anxiety attacks less frequent, but the emotional numbness *sucked*

that's why it's often paired with Wellbutrin, a mild stimulant used to treat depression & minor ADHD

oof, this gave me flashbacks to Red Ribbon Week

“don't do drugs, kids! pot will kill you! hallucinogens will make you run out into the street and get hit by a car or something!

…anyway, tomorrow is Dress Like You Went On A Bender Day! class dismissed!”

(and of course, just to be entirely clear, I know that the ACTUAL solution to this issue is to invest more in public transportation and get people to stop using personal cars/trucks in the first place :P)

The solution is not to make it physically impossible for the car ITSELF to move at those speeds. The goal should instead be to make it impossible to get up to those speeds in the first place.

besides, making a change to specific roads feels more practical than forcing everyone to get a new vehicle

I understand the sentiment, but there is a better method than limiting the cars themselves (which would make drivers complacent, not safe, as we've seen with "autopilot")

If you want to improve road safety, DOTs should invest in INFRASTRUCTURE that limits speeds like curves and pinch-offs.
