The difference between AVC’s longer, recurring features and its shorter, snarkier news articles is night and day.

I like this lady a lot better.

I’ll fuck a dude up verbally though.

Im shocked she didn't get it when her Dad did. I thought the entire White House was getting their vaccines shortly after Donny came down with it. Whatever, hopefully some of the Trumpies change their minds because of her, we need as many as possible for this shitshow to be over. Im getting my second dose next week, im…

I have the same rage, for nearly the same reasons. The pandemic stole my family from me in almost exactly the same way as you outline above. 

I was a runner before Covid struck (probably 3-4 days/week reliably), but the spring 2020 surge and the correlating work stress from working in health care drove me to increase my mileage and get outside every single day, regardless of temperature or weather. At a certain point, I realized that this was a coping…

“There’s no life hack that gets around the knowledge your government was happy to let a vast swath of its population die, no radical acceptance of such a monumental chain of loss.”

When Irwin Allen beats you to the punch by half a century you might as well pack it up.

I have never heard of challenge coins before.

That was my first thought. This is an eating disorder. An expensive eating disorder.

Basically they’re the same as the annoying <insert group here> everyone <who ain’t them but quite probably has their own group> hates.

I completely agree. I have anxiety disorder and creating too much stress or rules around food takes a toll on my mental health. I now refuse to view foods as good or bad and instead just try to have a lot of variety in what I eat. I also refuse to feel bad about eating or not eating something. It took me a long time…

I’ve been watching the Godzilla movies since I was a kid, cuz my dad loved them, and I stand by their excellence!

Getting my second one Friday, but the first one was just arm pain and I’m hoping for the same with the second. Any side effects are still better than getting COVID, so I’ll take them with little complaint. 

I got my Pfizer 1 on Thursday, too! For me the soreness was no worse than any other jab. I was too happy to notice, really, most of the time.

I got my first dose (also Pfizer) a week ago. I’m a total needle wuss but barely felt it going in. The next couple of days, my arm was sore, but not nearly as bad as it was after my flu or tetanus (ESPECIALLY tetanus; oof, that was rough) shots. I also got a headache, but I get headaches several times a week so who…

Johnson & Johnson here. The shot barely registered for me. But DAMN was my arm sore for the next few days. 

I got Moderna, but same! I got my second shot today and, since everyone has said that the second shot it worse, I’m waiting for my arm to fall off  any minute now.

Yeah the shot is just a regular ol’ shot, nothing more than a slight pinch. The arm pain is pretty brutal though, and I’m very tired from it I think. Got it yesterday afternoon.. 

That was my issue as well- no real side effects, the shot was easy-peasy, but boy oh boy was my shoulder upset with me the next day!
