My two best friends have pectus excavatum and pectus carinatum respectively. My friend with pectus carinatum doesn't have to wear a brace or anything, but my friend with excavatum had to have some pretty wicked surgeries,. He has a few spots with circular scars where he had wires running into him. When they took them out he was surprised by an awful sensation in his chest. He asked what it was and the nurse said very nonchalant, 'It was the wires dragging across your lungs as we took them out.'

I'm not sure I would have warned a person dropping acid for the first time that it can make your body numb, I've never experienced that. I'll probably mention it now though. ...I love acid.

I got rhabdo from a seizure I had at work. I was on IV fluids for a week or so and had to measure how much I peed. When I was released my veins felt sore. No question really, I feel for you though, it's not a fun time.

Venetian Snares is a local musician I'm really fond of. EN have kind of become irrevocably associated with industrial, and Venetian Snares is sort of industrial adjacent, so I was curious more than anything. Venetian Snares put out an album called Winnipeg is a Frozen Shithole. It, and One Great City by The Weakerthans are really accurate depictions of how Winnipeggers feel about it here. Anyway, sorry for the randomness. If you haven't listened to the song Hajnal by Venetian Snares check it out, it's one of his more listenable tracks. You have a favorite album from EN?

Edit: I checked out Nothing is Safe by clipping. It's cool, thanks!
