This is so fucking funny, damn. Really makes you think about the abuse our cells go through


The_Karaethon_Cycle

My cells apparently couldn’t take it anymore and revolted.


Tedadore97

Shit, I'm... Sorry. Hopefully the revolution is stomped out oppressively and concisely. If all else fails, nuke em.


The_Karaethon_Cycle

Yep, I nuked ‘em and replaced them with better cells.

My immune system got so pissed off that it started attacking my skin cells (psoriasis).

Mine started attacking itself (Lupus)

You're dead!?


F_Joe

This sounds like cancer rather than just being dead


The_Proper_Potato

Ooh. I was thinking autoimmune disorder but that would be more like an internal civil war I guess. Cancer makes more sense!


Ok-Kaleidoscope5627

Send in the caffeine. If that doesn't do it there's always meth or cocaine.

TONKAHANAH

that... might actually work so long as you dont lie about the food you're eating


SpacemanTomX

That's where over engineering comes in You're forced to take a picture and you use an AI model go identify the food


neolologist

Oh that's the best part. The AI model is janky as fuck so it doesn't work half the time.

No no, AI hasnt crossed the tipping point to differentiate yogurt from butter yet. Technospoon with a scale and built in mini calorimeter. Tomogachi starts begging you to stop after X calories


stumblewiggins

>AI hasnt crossed the tipping point to differentiate yogurt from butter yet. If it can't tell from the quantities involved, then we have a bigger problem


kithlan

Perfect, the buzzword we needed to sell this idea. **MACHINE LEARNING**

It actually works in real life anyway ... even if you lie about what you are eating to yourself ... you end up gaining 100 extra pounds and getting diabetes.

Narrator: but it was delicious. Especially drinking the milk afterwards.


JaozinhoGGPlays

He eats what you eat so if you eat badly the tamagachi will be sad because he is eating badly too and begs you to give him (yourself) something that's good for your health.


Lington

That would actually be great, I'm a sucker for that kind of stuff. Gotta take care of my tamagochi


NotLondoMollari

Fun fact: your body IS your tamagochi! (I learned this lesson on a shroom trip, but I haven't been able to spin it into lasting changes for the better yet)

“Your body is your tamagochi” These words make me wanna take care of myself all of a sudden

Seakawn

As psychoactives get studied more, we're finding that therapy is so essential to tie in with trips because of this problem. It's the problem being coined as "integration," and the problem is largely solved by having professional therapists help you to integrate such insights that you get from trips. Like, many benefits in these trials drop off (yet are still significant, but still) if they miss the therapy part of the equation. It's not inherently necessary--many can integrate the insights on their own. And besides, the benefits are still significant on its own. But the benefits consistently hit near the ceiling when you just add that one extra ingredient of therapy. If nothing else, it works as accountability. At best, it helps draw the insights out so clearly that you can actually latch onto them. Hopefully in the next decade, anyone, at least in some states, can do a trip and get therapy to integrate their experience into their lives for the longterm.


arcaneresistance

Maybe not make me eat healthier but definitely allowed me to unpack and deeply, permanently accept a whole fuck ton of trauma I was holding on to. So that's a win.


ohhhthehugemanatee

Or eats the same food as you and gets fat/diabetic and eventually dies based on your shitting eating habits.


poktanju

>dies based on your shitting habits. Nasty way to go...


quickblur

It would start off as an avatar of you that slowly transforms into Big Chungus.


1FrostySlime

If I knew how to code I would steal the ever living hek out of that idea


LastPlaceComics

I'd just be glad I could use it to be honest


lazy_username_89

This is a genuinely brilliant idea. You feed your tamagotchi exactly what you eat, give it exactly as much exercise as you give yourself, give it as many hours of sleep as you have. Seeing it be in good or poor health would likely have an impact on people


BellatrixLenormal

The Finch app is kinda like that. It gives you points for eating well, sleeping, going outside, drinking water, cleaning, and reaching out to family and friends.


tortellini-pastaman

Booooring! I want to kill other tamagochis

Comics and graphic novels are some of the most impactful stories you can experience because of their mixture of words and art. Sometimes they can highlight facial expressions and the feeling of a moment even more than a movie could.

You might also like Bismuth's series on the original Mario and SM64 TAS, and the SM64 A-Button Challenge. I've watched them several times over. I'm watching one right now. This comic felt like you were watching me decide to stay up until 5am.

Oh man his Wii Sports Golf speedrun video is so fantastic. Who knew that speedrunning golf was so complex. Definitely the most interesting aspect about it is getting the lowest score doesn’t actually mean best time due to unskippable replays


TheDayIRippedMyPants

I still think it's hilarious that taking the batteries out of the Wiimote was somehow a useful speed strat


Burningshroom

Oh man! I get to be the one that tells you! Speed strats have included some insane shit. My favorite was using a hotplate to intentionally overheat the console for Dragonquest 3. There are plenty of this type of thing and looking up that particular one should bring you to the door of the rabbit hole.


TheDayIRippedMyPants

Lmao that now that sounds awesome. I know a lot of hardware-based strats end up banned, but it's still super cool to see what people figure out.

The JP community engages in it way more than anyone else. It's not as contested over there.

ThatSquareChick

I was a completely normal person before I turned 35. Average eating habits, moderate exercise from my dancing job and no kids so I got good sleep. Then I turned 35 and it all went to shit. For the first 7 months, my doc was absolutely convinced that I had type 2 diabetes and gave me all kinds of pills and booked me appointments with specialists who changed my diet all topsy-turvy …except an endocrinologist. I guess they assumed that since I “didn’t need insulin” I didn’t need to see the specialist that prescribed it. When I finally DID get around to seeing one she took one look at 5’2” me who had lost 15 lbs even though I was so hungry I ate everything around me that wasn’t nailed down that was low-carb. So many bags of pork rinds, cheese bits, and, I shit you not, I ate bacon bits like a snack food right out of the 1/2lb bag. She gived me the peptide test and then was, like, “oh honey, here’s why the pills don’t work, they never would and you are just getting worse! You are actually a type ***1***diabetic!! Here, take this insulin and see how you do” and within an hour I started to feel something that I could recognize as normal-adjacent. I had to quit soda completely and also fancy coffee drinks, ice cream concoctions and junk food snack cakes but when I do get to eat something sweet it tastes so much better and death by keto acidosis isn’t fun so portion control is pretty easy. I get to wear a cool bracelet and never get a full night’s sleep anymore because the Bluetooth constant meter is beeping at me with the intensity of five klaxons to tell me I’m dying and need to eat whether I feel full or not. So yeah, what yo selves everbuddy becuz your body will be like “peace out, had a good time, I will now self destruct in a spectacular fashion.”

Open-Ad-1812

Apps like myfitnesspal and others can give you a breakdown of your micro nutrient intake. You can also get blood work done to see what your vitamin/mineral levels are at.


throntron9000

So I just put my blood in the app?


HectorZeroniGaming

Yep! You can just prick your finger and bleed right into the charging port!


dasgudshit

Subotail

I think my co-worker does that for sugar.


mistermagicman

Assuming you don’t have any health issues, just eat healthy shit - i.e., tons of veggies and some fruit. It’s mostly that simple.


sup3r87

Yeah I'm not too concerned about my intake, but sometimes I'm like "I haven't had any greens aside from sandwich lettuce in a few days.. I wonder if I need to munch on some" But I'm not like, addicted to soda/grease/fried stuff. Just feels like homemade turkey and cheese sandwich for lunch isnt giving me everything lol

bluestjordan

Ooooh! It reminded me of this: “Pizza still counts as a vegetable in U.S. public school cafeterias. The U.S. Agriculture Department originally wanted to require a half cup of tomato paste for a pizza slice to qualify as a vegetable. But on Thursday, the U.S. House of Representatives backed off from the stricter requirement.” https://www.cbc.ca/amp/1.1089258 Fact stranger than fiction


About400

It’s worse than that. Serving ketchup counts as a vegetable, despite it being a condiment.


AFlyingNun

Doesn't USA put sugar in their ketchup or some shit?


CookieSquire

Do you know of a ketchup recipe that doesn't include some sweetener? I'm not saying ketchup should count as a vegetable, but every version of it I'm aware of includes tomatoes, vinegar, and sugar in some form.


hurst_

it's OK, they also have categorized sugar as a fruit

YoureOnABoat

Everybody knows that tomatos are botanical fruits. So are string beans, peppers, zucchinis, pea pods, etc. A vegetable is a culinary term, not a botanical one. "Vegetable" has no botanical meaning. Culinary vegetables can be roots, plant stems, seeds, and botanical fruits. A tomato is a culinary vegetable and a botanical fruit. It is both. It's not incorrect to refer to a tomato as a vegetable.


gohan587

Tomatoes are botanically fruits (berries). Culinarily used as a vegetable ingredient.
