Oh, all's well, friend. Long story short: Mega heavy depression from early teens, diagnosed in my early twenties after years of substance abuse, tried to off myself, odyssey of therapists, got better for some years, got bad again, got a great psychiatrist, got on some fantastic meds that we tweak occasionally (got rid of the sweaty pills).

I'm in my thirties, have a family, life is good (apart from /late-stage capitalism and my countries slow and seemingly inevitable decline into fascism).

My ABCC11 gene is in it's recessive AA form.

Which is more common in Asians, but I am European. This means my earwax is almost white and completely dry, which makes it just crumble/flake out. But more importantly, my sweat is almost odourless. I am a bigger dude and sweat a lot as it is. When I used to take a certain medication that made me sweat insane amounts I would literally be wet above the belt when I walked a minute. No stank. I check regularly and have my partner check my smell but I legit have to shower more often because my hair is greasy than because of body odour. When I had super short hair the thing that made me want to shower is when my skin gets oily, which happens after about five days. I still shower every other day because hygiene, but it's a really nice perk.

Don't be too jealous though, nature balanced that out with heaps of mental health issues.

I replayed Baldur's Gate 1 & 2 on mobile. It's a surprisingly good port.

IN FLIGHT?!

Thank you for taking the time to answer!

I don't quite understand why the air force would send an IT guy to a place in Iraq where it's actually dangerous and not somewhere there's computers. But I don't know anything.

Might I ask what you did in the air force and what gave you your disability? Feel free to decline.

I had to look it up, but PIDS sounds very useful.

For everyone who also didn't know: it's a missile detection system with three cameras in each pylon, so almost 360° coverage, and automatic flare/chaff dispensers.

Rule of Google: if it works, kill it.

I know, I know, using Google apps isn't the best, but this was a perfectly good Podcast app with all the features you might want.

Apparently they're moving everything over to YouTube Music, where a lot of the features of Google Podcasts aren't implemented yet.

I've moved over to an app from F-Droid.
