    I’m too young to be sick! Too healthy ‘looking’! Like the fuck. You want me to put on some corpse makeup so you’ll take me seriously? Mom’s friend had breast cancer and they caught it late because she always dressed well, but I’m dressed like a slob and just told I’m lazy instead!!

      When I went to ENT due to sudden tinnitus and loss of hearing higher frequencies in my left ear (which also felt a bit disorienting), they just tested my hearing with a machine that only went up to 6kHz, she said it was mostly fine, and that humans don’t need to hear above 6kHz anyway.

      So hey audiophiles, you’ve heard it, 12kHz sample-rate is HiFi.

        I used a tone generator to recreate my tinnitus, it’s about a 13k tone. I didn’t know they stop testing after 6k

          ooo, i remembered testing this a while back. mine is a constant pitch: E11 or 42kish (i thought it was E12 but i just tested again to be sure). before my tinnitus showed up, i had damn good relative pitch. now i have nearly perfect pitch, and it’s all comparing the interval to the note that has not stopped ringing for 30 years.

      I like how doctors definitely judge you based on how you dress, but there’s no upside.

      Person is well dressed and very put together? They obviously don’t have real problems™

      Person is messily dressed? Their problems are their own fault (and impossible to solve)
