Shit that reminds you that you’re getting old - Re: Fwd: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Fwd: Damn young’uns

I've gotten to the age where my continence has started to deteriorate. I'm not shitting myself frequently enough to start wearing adult diapers but it may be something I need to look into in the near future. If anybody knows any good brands that they could recommend to me I would really appreciate it.
No judgement-
Maybe it's your diet? Weight? Muscular problems?
Under 65 - this shouldn't happen.

I have pelvic floor dysfunction. I had to get a prostatectomy due to cancer a few years ago. I'm seeing a physical therapist right now and I'm taking medication to manage it but I'll probably still have to start wearing diapers at some point.

Jesus. I am sorry. That is a whole other thing.

Medicare/Medicaid should pay for your needs - see what they will pay for and go with it.
Seems like my guess about muscular probs was correct. I shoulda been a doctor.

Diet:
Still - I would watch your fat intake. Fat = loose stool. Also sugars cause probs as we age (the 'sugar shits').
Eat bread that doesn't add sugar or corn syrup.

Pills - OTC:
Take anti- diarrhea (loperimide I think, doing this from memory). That will harden you up good.
Regular Tums can also harden stools - but not enough typically.

Exercise:
Pelvic floor routine. Weight loss. I'm sure you have some routine by now.

Anyway - I am very sorry about your condition. I wish you the best.

Music from my childhood is played on the oldies station... and I mean Sugar Ray, No Doubt, and Blink 182.

My knees making the cricking sounds when I squat.

And I have to sleep 8 hours, anything less and I'm tired all day. Didn't used to be like that until my mid-30s.

Anybody remember when the lunch lady makes you take a milk and a fruit with your lunch? Some schools had strawberry milk in stock.
 
Why is the future going so fast?
Relativity is a bitch. Three months of summer vacation were grand adventures when we were kids, now three months is nothing. Which is testament to how much of a Faustian bargain immortality would be. After centuries of life, entire human lifespans would be as banal as watching TikTok videos.
 
I'm seeing it in my shopping behavior when I go out thrifting. 13 years ago, when I was younger, I was all like "man I'm excited to go out to this mom and pop store I know so I can try and find me some games I remembered playing! It's gonna be great, they got good prices! Let's go!".


Now when I thrift, 13 years later, it's all like "I'd like to have a good office chair, maybe get another coffee maker or something". I'm getting more anxious about what appliance or furniture I'm wanting to get than indulging on any interests I have remaining. And granted even back then when I saw a piece of furniture I thought I could use or something, yeah I'm pouncing on it, but it wasn't a primary goal as it is now.

Give me 10 - 15 more years and I'm gonna be excited getting fucking tupperware or whatever we'll be storing our leftovers in.
