Idk If I Told The Full Story On Here But I Signed Up For A Research Study Where They Were Testing A New

idk if i told the full story on here but i signed up for a research study where they were testing a new opioid, and it was supposed to be up to 5 injections increasing the dose to see what people could tolerate

i got the first dose and almost immediately fainted. they had to call in a whole medical team and it was a huge fucking deal

i was kicked out of the study and got a phone call later where they were supposed to tell me what the drug was, so i could avoid it in the future. they told me it was saline water. a placebo. i fainted from the placebo effect.

anyway, it's been a few months and i just got an email from the same department asking me to be a research participant in a new study: testing the effects of open-label placebo.

open label placebo is when the subjects and the researchers all know it's a placebo. they're testing the power of my mind. my power to imagine anything.

i like to think that they chose me for this specifically based on their past experience with me. "get the guy who fainted like a little bitch boy from saline water." anyway i just submitted all my info and i'm looking forward to getting started.

Woll and Bernthal have more chemistry in a few glances across the room than most Marvel movies do with full love stories and kissing.

And for Frank and Karen, even though it ends with them going their separate ways and having made their choices, he did say that he loves Karen, and she was able to say that back. It felt great to do that. — Deborah Ann Woll[x]

just rewatched s2ep11 of Punisher and i’m deadass confused how Karen and Frank aren’t gonna end up together. they have to. there’s no other choice. Karen asked him to “make it mean something” that she came to visit him. she was willing to throw her entire life away to help him and he couldn’t let her. she told him to choose to LOVE SOMEONE instead of the war. she begged him to love her. he practically admitted he did but couldn’t do a thing about it. they almost kissed!! and they’re not gonna be endgame??
