Please dont show that my wife

Because you don’t want her giving you a face massage so you can take a brain poop? Gonna need some further explanation, chief.

Wife already wants hourly neck and head massages. My thumbs are already working at max capacity, Captain. I’m giving it all I got!

have you thought maybe it might be easier to ghost her?

just pretend you’re dead and she might go away.

Perhaps why we rub our eyes when tired? I wonder.

Study was done in mice, and it relies on massaging specific lymph nodes which are easily accessible for massage (sounds like most of the lymph nodes related to the brain-flushing mechanism are too deep in the neck to really get at).

Super curious if/where humans have analogues.

note: do not attempt if you’re a chiropractor

brsrklf@jlai.lu on 08 Jun 21:21 next collapse

Chiropractics is brain waste in itself.

But it could make your back feel better for a day or two. Why address the cause when we can just temporarily fix the symptoms?

Kekzkrieger@feddit.org on 09 Jun 14:08 collapse

Most of what they do is just placebo, recently read somewhere about it not even reliefing issues but the noise making people feel better for a short while.

Isn’t this also what happens when we sleep?

I’m a slab of meat, rubbing my meat to relax my meat. This biomass is relaxed
