Reading around, it seems like if you keep it within recommended dosages and have no existing kidney problems, it’s all good. The main thing is to make sure whatever supplement you’re actually taking is reporting the amount of creatine correctly.

Supplements aren’t regulated well.
I’d assume drugs if I saw a guy staring at a vending machine for ages. That’s “took too much of something that doesn’t leave the system fast” behavior. Possibly he wanted to get something from the vending machine, but couldn’t hold on to the thought for long enough to go through the process. Perception of time gets fucked on those sorts of drugs, so he has no idea he’s been there for however long. The behavior sounds specifically like that of people I’ve known who accidently took a higher dose of edibles than intended.
The world is real but we perceive it with a brain that can read signals of it imperfectly if something goes wrong in there. That leads to strange behaviors like you described.
Name them cookie! Unless you don’t want to.
There are a bunch of different kinds of places that all link together! Lemmy is a bit like reddit, Mastodon is like twitter, Mbin does the twitter and reddit thing mashed together, pixelfed is like instagram, friendica is like facebook- and so on.

Maybe this will help?
I think it’s an easy naming scheme when you have a litter of puppies to try and adopt out.
What are you interested in? I bet people can link you to some communities you might like, if you can’t find some just browsing.
Mastodon has microblogging, like twitter/x and bluesky, if you’re interested in that! Lemmy is more about finding communities on topics and posting in them.
there are tens of you!
There are so many joke reviews and so few people seeing it I did wonder if there was anything interesting about it whatsoever
“A good two-thirds of that 108 minutes is spent watching Melania Trump leave buildings and get in a car, then get driven around in the car, then get out of the car and onto a plane, then get flown around on the plane, then sometimes get off the plane and into a different car. This is the very first thing you see in the film, and it’s repeated a good six or seven times.”
Think the early joke reviews were right on this one.
https://commonslibrary.org/ I think a first step might be searching here for “toolkit” or specific topics. I remember seeing a lot of useful zines and posters and guides around the internet, and if you’re interested I can try to track them down, but this site might have what you need.
This can also be a useful resource: https://theanarchistlibrary.org/special/index
If a fact about the past is demeaning to a historical hero, they deserve to be demeaned.
I have an earliest memory that I wonder if it’s just my memory of me recounting it at this point. And another memory of being attacked by a dog that I believe was a dream that got mixed up with reality because the neighbor’s dog scared me. ‘Memories of memories’ seems accurate the further back I try to remember.
I think you need an account. I look at tags, sometimes, because I like finding new artists to follow, but I’m not sure that’s expected useage.
You can probably start with careful exposure therapy. I’m not sure how to do that with germ phobia. I dealt with a fear of spiders by reading about them and looking at pictures until I stopped feeling disgust/anxiety. I then just kind of noted and moved on when I saw one in real life. These days I see a spider and can even move it if it’s in a bad spot without feeling anxious.
Not knowing your triggers, I can’t say if that path would help or make it worse.

For my social anxiety, I started out getting books from the library about that specific phobia. It took a lot of time to get from there to telling my doctor I was anxious all the time, to medication, and then therapy. I doubt I’ll ever be free of it, but I can do a lot of things now I once couldn’t (small talk with customers? wow!)
It kind of has to be guided by you and the specifics of your phobia, unfortunately. Like, would looking at a picture of a dirty surface for five minutes a day make you anxious? Just a little, or a lot? If a little, try it. If a lot, scale it back further. Hopefully someone with a similar phobia comes around with more relevant advice. Good luck?
I get it but I also like that it’s there as a reminder how up there he is. But I’ve assumed for a while I’ll find out about his death because I’ll reload tumblr and be confronted with a wall of crab rave gifs.
No, but it’s something I’ve heard other people describe. I don’t know if it’s common, but it doesn’t sound odd.
People at church when I went as a kid would talk about a sense of feeling guided. People talked about feeling “called” to something. I always felt a lot of nothing, but I don’t think most of them were lying about that feeling, even if I suspect a different source than they did.
It’s not fast, unfortunately, but I was prescribed a high weekly dose by my doctor and it did seem to help eventually. The long time it takes means I’m left wondering if I feel better because of the vitamins, or something else, but I do feel better.

Research has found that vitamin D insufficiency resolved with 12 weeks of weekly high-dose vitamin D.
Unfortunately, when your D is really low, you should up the dosage to get a noticable change, but too much vitamin D can be dangerous so I wouldn’t recommend it without finding out what your levels are. When I was checked both my vitamin D and iron were low, which is why I was sleeping constantly and still feeling fatigued.
“power user” is such a kind way to describe that, thank you!
I’ve seen some stories where vampires suck blood through their teeth, back when I read more vampire fiction, but I don’t know how common those are. I think it seems a bit comedic, so it probably depended on how funny the story was supposed to be.
