Sometimes side effects can be positive, though that's definitely not the way to bet. Fingers crossed, though.
This must be what going mad feels like.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Connie, that's really great news!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Amazing!

Sometimes side effects can be positive
As a nerdy point of info, that's why, in medical editing, we explicitly use the term "adverse effects" to indicate unwanted bad side effects, because there is the possibility of good/beneficial side effects.

Interesting story about a mass graveyard of fossilized stranded whales. What I don't understand is why the graphic doesn't include a drawing of the aquatic sloth.
AQUATIC SLOTH people! Why don't they understand what is important???

In my mind, an aquatic sloth is basically a manatee.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
In my mind, an aquatic sloth is basically Aquasloth, who is like Aquaman, except slower.

It's practically a blizzard out right now. Visibility is under 50 yards. Radar tells me it is just a strong band and it will be over soon, but eeks!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Connie, like, whoa. If anyone's gonna get superpowers from radiation, it'll be your Hubby.
Still I will take the cancer that got my Dad over the more than a decade decline into dementia and no mobility that my Mom is still going through.
This, a million times. I would take that end-of-life "option" for myself as well, although given my family history, it's more likely to be the bad one.
In vacation news, my face and arms are slightly sunburned and swollen after days of driving in bright sunshine, but today on the beach it was cloudy and cool and breezy and perfect.
