Ghostface’s knife: the iconic Buck 120

I’m looking to display this in my home, but holy smokes it’s bigger in person than I thought it’d be. It’s also extremely sharp. I can see why it’s featured in all these movies.

What’s your favorite scary movie?

Fresh out of the packaging: the first six Scream films on DVD and the first three Scary Movie films on blu-ray! They kind of complement each other well considering one franchise is a horror-comedy and one is a comedy-horror making fun of the other.

Hi. I'm going to keep this as short as I can. I have the following formally diagnosed:

  • OCD (ICD-10 code F42.2 specifically)
  • ADHD-PI
  • GAD

I also have chronic insomnia but don't have a formal diagnosis because I have not done a sleep study. My current medication regimen is as follows:

  • Buspar 15mg (twice a day)
  • Dexedrine extended release 5mg (twice a day)
  • Valium 5mg (twice a day)
  • Ambien 10mg (once before bed)

I've been having more intrusive thoughts and distracting breakthrough anxiety, so my doctor wants to add on 1mg of Intuniv to take once in the evening (but not too close to when I take the second Valium or Ambien). She prescribed this because I had a severe reaction to Prozac leading to permanent dry eyes, increasing the dosage of Buspar did not have any additional benefit, and I outright refuse to try Lamictal.

So my questions are:

  • Is this a safe combination of medications to be taking?
  • Will Intuniv actually help me out here? (I saw that it was a blood pressure medication and I have very normal blood pressure)
  • Can someone come off of Intuniv easily?

Thanks to anyone who takes the time to respond. My doctor works with me on making decisions regarding medication, so, if someone thinks there's one out there that may also help, let me know so I can discuss it with her next visit.

🫐 Blueberry cheesecake 🍰

I have GAD, ADHD, and OCD and being extremely anxious is normal, but calling customer service is usually fine for me because I used to work at a call center and understand what it’s like on the other end of the line.

I had to call my ISP earlier because my bill went up and I wanted to see if a retentions person could lower it because I actually do have a good alternative that is cheaper.

The back and forth eventually sounded more and more like a sales pitch and it just hit this weird switch in my head that reminded me of when I had to sell Internet and phone plans to people as one of my first jobs out of college. I hated that job, but I know what a sales pitch sounds like and he was speaking like a salesperson. I don’t want a landline. I don’t want cable. I’m not “an outlier” for that.

I called him out on it and got angry a bit and then got embarrassed and apologized and then I spiraled into a panic attack and lost my composure.

It was a really uncomfortable experience, but I mellowed out enough to work things out so that my Internet bill will be $25 cheaper a month than it was. They refused to tell me what the price would be after a year, and I recorded them saying that. I’ll take the extra cash W for now.

I will pay *any price* for the comfiest bedding that is cool during summer and warm during winter.

Alternatively, I would also go with some bedding that’s good during summer but a second throw blanket that can be tossed on top during winter.

I already have a great mattress and pillows. The bedding would complete the trifecta.

He must be a lurker here or that post the other week really pissed him off.

Edit: it’s Taco Bell, not pizza. He originally got flamed over pizza

I never was able to finish Pac-Man World 2 for the PS2 (got halfway through the lava area back then), and I just found out about this remaster. All of the levels feel just the right level of difficult, and all the bosses are well-designed and challenging.

Spooky, though… Oh, man. I scared my dog with how loud I was screaming at my TV. Took me a minimum of an hour and a half of trying. The triple lightning attack hit me almost every attempt, and I won with one health slice left.
