pressure sores from being in bed all day - to prevent these, change position minimum every 2hrs if possible, and use pillows to support your positions (find visual examples online). you’re especially at risk of pressure sores if you use continence products, so make sure to use a barrier cream and change as soon as possible when soiled.

contractures, especially in the ankles, from being immobile in bed - these can be minimised by doing ankle flexibility exercises, but ONLY if that would be within your energy envelope. otherwise just try to vary your ankle/foot positions. support with pillows if needed.

tinnitus and ear infections from having to wear earplugs so much - i have no advice for this

vitamin d deficiency from being indoors in the dark all the time - supplements and foods rich in vit d can help.

deep vein thrombosis aka blood clots in the legs from immobility - this is uncommon but it’s an emergency if it ever occurs. compression socks can reduce your risk if you can tolerate wearing them, and movement also helps lower the risk, but again, only within your energy envelope.

muscle atrophy - your legs and arms may start to look like sticks after becoming bedbound. unfortunately, as long as exercise is unsafe for you, this is impossible to fix, so it’s something we have to accept, as pushing ourselves is much more dangerous than deconditioning.

vit and mineral deficiencies from dietary restrictions - opt for a healthy diet, supplementation, and regular blood tests to stay on top of deficiencies

dehydration from being unable to sit up to drink - there are sporty contraptions meant for backpackers that let you drink lying down. some water bottles with sports caps also work, i use refilled lucozade bottles for all my water. if you’re too weak to swallow for longer than a day, it’s time to call a doc to see if they can give iv hydration.

dehydration from sleeping a very long time - if you sleep 16+ hours, especially if it happens regularly, you’re probably waking up dehydrated. try to drink water when you wake.

I'm very thin/ atrophied myself, and that definitely puts you at a greater risk. Aside from repositioning/ having a caregiver reposition you at least every two hours, there is also an aid called an alternating pressure mattress that I personally use. It's a little air mattress that you put on top of your regular mattress that attaches to an electric pump. Mine was about fifty US dollars. It has little air bubbles/ pocket things within it. The air pockets inflate and deflate, alternating between which row, every five minutes or so. My dad calls it my breathing bed for this reason, heh. This helps your weight from settling in one place and therefore keeps pressure sores at bay! I didn't explain it super super well, but EquipMeOT sure does.

STOP-

Here's what I need you to do:

If you see a post with a "mature content" label, and it's 2026, DM me a link to the post.

Yes, that's really it.

I am hoping to collect several thousand such posts, so that I have a decent sized dataset. I do not care what the post is about; if it's labeled as "mature content", I want to add it to my dataset.

i dont think the robot fuckers know how wires work. like dont get me wrong, im not here to yuck peoples yum, but ever since i made that one post i've now been exposed to more to the scene and now i have MORE nitpicks.

Wires! how do they work? well not by yanking on them thats for sure. wires transmit signals. they dont have sensation themselves. your robot wont feel you touching the wires, your thinking about this all wrong. the mental image you need is not of nerves but of a VGA cable not seated right. the screen is glitchy and distorted as different pins become unplugged and re-plugged in the connector. THAT is how it would be interpreted

tugging on a wire will cause the plug to become partially unseated. what happens if you loose the clock pin? or 5V? or Ground? or the signal drops out? or if its analogue? well all kinds of fun things. whatever that wire connects will no longer be detected correctly. tugging on a wire in the torso could cause the left foot to flash between static, spinning, inverted position, or feeling like when you hit the funny bone in your elbow. its brief pulses of garbage data. that would probably be pretty overwhelming

but lets also not forget why the wires are on the inside and not the outside: Shielding RF is no joke. we all take it for granted that all of our devices are certified to not produce excessive levels of EMF but thats because we keep the wires on the inside. lots of our tech hides inside a faraday cage you cant see

every wire is basically a mini-antenna and will pick up on any electric interference. put your cell phone on a pare of wired headphones plugged into a different device and call it. you will hear the RF beaming into your phone from the cell tower. electric motors spin because of a oscillating magnetic field. moving a spinning motor near wires will induce eddy currents in the wires that will show up as more junk signals. heck there is even a whole design process with robots to make sure the data wires are kept away from the power wires because the power wires WILL interfere with the data ones. so pull those wires out and twist them next to each other to really mess with it. And thats all low power stuff. think about what a little bit of static electricity from friction with a polyester blanket would do if you poked a finger inside to discharge it. YOU can feel your hairs stand up before it goes off and arc itself. your hand is a little mini capacitor and youve just dumped 20 kilovolts (at very low amperage) into some sensitive components. this is why you wear a ESD wrist strap when you work on expensive electronics, folks
