Signs your getting old?
I've had a suspicious bump of skin next to my left nostril since late January. Thought it was a zit - still get them occasionally as an adult but Welbutrin for anxiety has been a magic pill to almost completely put a stop to any acne I'd get.
It's not gone away, getting it looked at in early April with my dermatologist, who I do yearly mole screenings with already. Worried a bit because it looks suspiciously like Squamous Cell Carcinoma, and the Internet is full of photos of what the surgery aftermath is like for that.
Any of you dealt with any skin cancer worries yet? I have 50+ moles around my body so my dermatologist has always had me in that high-risk category. I wish I could go back in time and tell my young college self "just because the apartment complex you live in comes with a free tanning bed membership doesn't mean you should use it." I made very few bad decisions when I was younger but doing that crap was the top of the list.
- hope it's all just a scare...hans_glib
- Hope it's not serious, stay positive.OBBTKN
- Thanks, trying not to freak out but just anxious.mg33
- I had one on my cheek. Dr took a chunk of it for a biopsy and it was negative. I just have a tiny scar where the bump used to be. Its hardly noticeable now.fooler
- I have one behind my eyeball (yeah WTH), doctor found out last year. I have to get it checked every year, and if it's bigger...lajj

Dog of the Day
Farewell to Coco who's just left this crazy world behind at the age of 16 and a bit.
She loved frisbees, anything dairy and the ocean. She was always fearless, chucking herself into breaking waves on the kind of Australian beaches where tourists go missing.
RIP old girl x

Punches For:
I'm doing a boring long-cut job at work and don't have much to do otherwise, so have been watching shitty YouTubes and... cutting my nails. Somewhat idly, it seems, because I've not been paying attention and now I've cut them too fucking short and I HATE THAT FEELING. I'VE HATED THAT FEELING SINCE I WAS A KID AND MOTHER WOULD CUT THEM DOWN TO THE BONE AND RRRNGHHNNNNNGH, IT JUST FEELS WRONG.
It's like squeezing cotton wool for me, or what people who don't like nails down a chalkboard feel.

- Chalkboard? What am I, a Yank?Nairn
- The pain of also not being able to grip things to open stuff too, hehePhanLo
- I'm just glad that i don't have to peel any fucking perspex wrap over the next few days, lolNairn
- Aah! As a kid pulling a nail off and the last bit doesn't want to, so you either yank it half way down your finger or leave it flapping like a fish hookFax_Benson

- I'm interested to put this whole USA egg thing into perspective. Here in the UK we pay around $2.60 for a pack of 6 eggs. How much is it there?HAYZ1LLLA
- um, it says $6 at the top of the charthans_glib
- and most of the cost muct be transport. i went to see a mate in radnor the other day, he tipped me the wink that his neighbour grew eggs for that fancy brandhans_glib
- clarence court or whatever it's called. i picked up a tray of 36 eggs from the shed at the bottom of his drive for £4....hans_glib
- ...only a little more than what a box of six goes for in the shops. then again you do have to drive to radnor to get that price....hans_glib
- Ahh missed that price at the top.
Cool story.HAYZ1LLLA - We pay $2.60 for 10 eggs pack, just checked now with Auchangrafician
- Why are so many eggs having seizures? Have they been to a neurologist yet? :(Akagiyama
- 2,40€ a dozen, we eat 2 dozens a week.OBBTKN
- I've never paid more than $4.50 for a DOZEN eggs. That was peak. Previously they were $3.00 or so.monospaced
- This is an outlier—we need more data to call it a trend. It's only slightly higher than Feb '23. Why were so many intercepted that year? Bird flu/costs also?cotton
- The jump from Feb '22 to Feb '23 is higher than Feb '24 to Feb '25.cotton
