Anyone else smelling burnt toast and struggling to use their left arm?

[–] HelloHotel@lemmy.world 8 points 7 months ago (2 children)

What is that in reference to?!

[–] urist@lemmy.blahaj.zone 12 points 7 months ago (2 children)

Signs you might be having a stroke. Some people have muscle weakness before they have a stroke. The burning toast thing is also possibly a symptom but it might also be an old wive’s tale.

For what it’s worth, when I have too much caffeine I smell a weird smell that isn’t there, so it’s possibly true.

According to a top-loud and repeating PSA in a doctors office I was stuck in for too long, the toast thing is a myth.

I've only heard the burnt toast thing in relation to a patient Dr. Wilder Penfield treated for recurrent seizures, where she would smell burnt toast before an episode. This led to developing the Montreal Procedure for epilepsy treatment.

"If you don't marry a man and birth his children, what are you even good for??"

Women can't possibly have a purpose beyond that!

Thank you. Do you mind if I paint that inspirational quote in cursive on the wall above my bed?

Why? Were they born

Well tbf i ask myself that a lot, but I think having children would make it worse.

Edit: Is this “mural” is about transwomen? I can’t tell for sure since the author has brain worms. (I’m a ciswoman and also a Strange Girl)

[–] Silentiea@lemm.ee 2 points 7 months ago

But were they born, though, or forged in the stellar furnace of Nidavellir?

[–] the_rogue@sh.itjust.works 5 points 7 months ago

The fuck ???

[–] HelloHotel@lemmy.world 3 points 7 months ago

Its like if "been far" was in service of a maybe transphobic 1960s PSA.
