People who work night shift keep this stupid ass world turning & our reward is a shorter lifespan and an inability to participate with human culture.

Smash capitalism.
Let the world sleep at night time.

It has made me so heat intolerant that working in the summer is hell.I take welbutrin & busparin to deal with my regular depression but when my doctor prescribed the prozac it was prior to knowing my thyroid had stopped working & prior to starting HRT.The list of pills I have to take seems too long.

Do any of you have experience getting off prozac?

I tapered for 3 weeks, went from 20mg to 10 & then tapered for 3 weeks. My last dose was a week or so ago. I am now feeling depressed & indifferent.

Maybe I should just stay on it?

This country has NEVER held powerful white men accountable, going back to the civil war. The Democrats have been making bad choices regarding accountability my entire life. (52 yrs)

These people are so full of shit, it's astounding. In a sane world this shit would be banned. No one needs Chat GPT, no one.

Robin Williams' daughter, Zelda Williams, also recently slammed people who are making Al-generated videos of her late father, calling the clips "gross." She added, "To watch the legacies of real people be condensed down to 'this vaguely looks and sounds like them so that's enough, just so other people can churn out horrible TikTok slop pup-peteering them is maddening. You're not making art, you're making disgusting, over-processed hotdogs out of the lives of human beings, out of the history of art and music, and then shoving them down someone else's throat hoping they'll give you a little thumbs up and like it."
