ALERT!

It's that time of year again where there are meds that make you more prone to overheating (and more), which people aren't aware of. Many anti-depressants and anti-psychotics, as well as meds unrelated to mental health medicines, impair your response to heat.
White text on Red background. Text reads: ALERT!! ANTI-DEPRESSANTS DURING HOT WEATHER If you are taking sertraline, citalopram, duloxetine, fluoxetin, mirtazipine OR Any other SNRI/SRRI you are more prone to overheating and dehydration Please stay safe in this heat! stay in the shade, stay hydrated and wear sun cream. Black text on white background. Text reads: Common psychotropic medications which can impair your response to heat: Trade Name - Generic Name Abilify - aripiprazole Asendin - amoxapine Artane - trihexyphenidyl Aventil, Pamelor - nortriptyline Clozaril - clozapine Cogentin - benztropine Compazine - prochlorperazine Desyrel - trazodone Elavil, Limbitrol, Triavil - amitriptyline Eskalith, Lithobid, Lithonate - lithium Geodon - ziprasidone Haldol - haloperidol Loxitane - loxapine Ludiomil - maprotiline Mellaril - thioridazine Moban - molindone Navane - thiothixene Norpramin - desipramine Phenergan - promethazine Prolixin - fluphenazine Risperdal - risperidone Serentil - mesoridazine Seroquel - quetiapine Sinequan - doxepin Stelazine - trifluoperazine Thorazine - chlorpromazine Tofranil - imipramine Trilafon - perphenazine Wellbutrin - buproprion Zyprexa - olanzapine *Note: This is not an all inclusive list.

Search ur camera roll for shark

Well, I actually had a picture of a real one beside all my Blåhaj pictures 🦈
A bad picture of a real shark at Universeum in Göteborg, Sweden. A picture of the blue and white Blåhaj shark from IKEA shark laying on top of a bed with a pair of matching Shark slippers. Text under reading "What a happy family". A picture of the blue and white Blåhaj shark from IKEA beside a whiteboard on a fridge. On the whiteboard, there is a sloppily drawn shark with a speech bubble with "AAAA" in it. Under the drawn shark is the text "SLENNART" which is the name of my partner and mines Blåhaj.

Because the music is great, I created playlists for them. One with basically everything (intros, outros + OST) and one with mainly songs with lyrics, all in somewhat chronological order because yeah?

The full one is 10h 23 min long (144 tracks) and the shortened one is 3h 7 min long (4 tracks).
Screenshot of two Spotify playlists. The first named "Attack on Titan (full)" and the second named "Attack on Titan (shortened)". The playlist pictures are both art/posters from season 4 of the show.

Time to rob a back lol
A screenshot from my Steam library showing the header for the game Turnip Boy Robs a Bank, the green Play button and that I have 0/23 achievements so far. The header shows the game logo with the game's name, Turnip Boy (a little turnip with legs and a cute face) with a gun and the word bank on top of a gold bar. Behind the logo it shows a red apple cat, a big car with some guys (including a pickle with a hat driving the car) and Turnip Boy on top with a gun, looking really happy. Behind them is a police car. I promise that this makes sense and if you can: Play both Turnip Boys Commits Tax Evasion + the new Turnip Boy Robs a Bank.

My gf and I played BOKURA yesterday and today, to get both experiences (+ the extra *3rd* one), and wow. Such a great game.

Had it in my wishlist and my partners colleague highly recommended it, and I do the same.

If you haven't, play BOKURA!
Steam title screen for the game BOKURA. The picture is split in half with the left being green and showing animal characters, and the right being brown and having robot characters. Over the middle BOKURA is written out, with a deer skull over it. The deer skull is split in two, left being fully white and the right having mechanical textures or something like that.

Was gonna past this at the beginning of the year but I just didn't. Anyway, I'm really proud of how much I read last year. Many different comic volumes (and books)!

Hopefully I can do something similar 2024 ✨️

I once put my finger in one of the fuses in a breaker panel/fuse box / whatever because one was missing it's plastic cover.

I stood on a sofa so when I put my finger in the fuse, I (logically) got chocked and fell from the sofa to the floor.

10/10 do NOT recommend.
Example picture of the type of breaker panel/ fuse box / whatever box I put my finger in. A grey box with a lot of round white fuses.

Quote with a game that is nostalgic to you:
A sand-bag looking voodoo doll with patches, and pins in his head, named Vince, is looking annoyed towards the camera. Behind him is a green floating head, named Kosmo.

Captions for season 2 of Good Omens are now fixed!
(Screenshot from Neil Gaimans Tumblr)
Screenshot from Tumblr. By neil-gaiman: The Captions Are Fixed! GOOD NEWS! Sarah-Kate Fenelon has worked very hard (thank you Sarah-Kate) and the Amazon engines have rolled, and if you watch Good Omens S2 with the closed captions on you should be in for a pleasant surprise. If you've seen it before with closed captions, I'd watch it again. (I just watched 10 minutes from episode 5, and every line was on the money.) #closed caption hell #closed caption Heaven

A fictional character you would give an invite to.
Picture of the character Aziraphale (Michael Sheen) from Good Omens. He's sitting on a bench in a park, wearing a beige coat, and a light, and checkered bowtie. His hair is white, and short. He smiles really hard, looking to the right [at Crowley, not in frame].
