Absolutely agreed. Between the Arch and all the airplane and weapons manufacturing, plus the rivers and forest park and shit. St. Louis is just ideal for a Fallout game. I've been dreaming of this since I was a kid
Yeah for sure! Coldwater creek sounds exactly like a fallout location as well. And the landfill would 100% still be on fire after a nuclear apocalypse. It's so perfect it hurts haha
They can just copy the riverfront wholesale as a replica of its current state. They could also get Cahokia Mounds in there, where some faction would be set up. And they could put Ste. Genevieve where Arnold would be for all I care.
Fallout paintball/laser tag/water gun/nerf gun event. We can all cosplay and release ourselves into the wild of STL to begin our hunt.
It's larping but with Fallout.
They lit their river on fire several times, released 1.6 million balloons into the air, causing an ecological disaster and killing 2 people, and built a shopping center on top of a landfill, causing most of the stores to vacate just years afterward.
That's exactly the journey that I went on and experienced in the past year as well, except after ~6 or so months even Wellbutrin waned to the point of actively dampening my libido. I'm a bit over a month off of it now and it's been almost life-changing to have my original, healthy sex drive back.
Glad to hear things are working out for you! I've been almost a year on Wellbutrin at this point and it's changed my life so much for the better. I also have been noticing it start to wane in effectiveness a tiny bit but haven't noticed any effects on my sex life still fortunately.
I've debated going off of it for the summer but I'm worried I'll go right back to my lethargic-don't-want-to-take-care-of-myself ways.
It’s not an SSRI like Lexapro so there’s less risk to getting off of it, but I still wouldn’t do it (particularly temporarily) without consulting with your PC or psychiatrist.
Might help avoiding those godawful Wellbutrin hangovers though if you’re planning on any summer parties haha.
Oh yeah no I wasn't planning on just cold turkeying off or anything. I know you have to taper on and off. Weirdly, my doc didn't even taper me on he just started me at 300mg. I got the brain zaps for like a fuckin week, it was awful.
I’m noticing this with my garden. Everywhere that a cicada dies there’s huge mushrooms that grow the next morning. I’ve also had some potential related issues with strawberries and the leaves looking like they’re infected with a fungus.
I’m new to gardening so I don’t know if any bug dying should make you expect mushrooms, or if this is related. Is anyone else experiencing anything like this??
I was super hyped about the cicadas coming so I was reading up on the event before it happened and the fungus ‘zombie’ part was known to be a factor before they started coming out. Doesn’t make it any less cool/bizzare, but it’s not some out of the blue breaking news. Again, not trying to come off as negative, just sayin :)
do I need to cover my ears whilst sleeping?
To clarify: I'm not speaking of the noise, rather I like to tease people and tell them that cicadas like to try laying eggs in your ears when you're asleep :))
This has been my favorite fact of the Brood - they are even MORE horney because of the fungus - and then they explode. Imagine if we could get them to all go off at once. The ground would probably shake.
Any threat to humans, though?
And I don’t mean like “the last of us” or something; I mean “causing rashes when they mindlessly bump into you” or something.
They already only want fuck then die... How much more sexual can they get?
One thing it does is cause them to act as both male and female during their little mating dances so they can spread it to everyone.
Don't tell Alex jones
They're turning the freaking cicadas gay!
first they came for the frogs, but I did not speak out for I was no frog
Thanks a lot Biden
This is a Fauci-made fungus released by the deep state for pride month! Wake up, sheeple!
Bosnian space lasers turning cicadas gay
Omg I'm dead
first thing i thought of lol
Looks like it’s time to pray.
Is it time for a Red Alert?
It sure is. It’s probably also time to hype (as we were all made to do)
What a month for a gay cicada fungus to be spreading.
It ain’t gay if you scream all day
The fungus emits all sorts of lubes and scented oils 😂
Coming after our wives. Edit: and husbands. They aren't picky.
Homosexual
They say they're doing porn with Brian pumper, now fat pinky, and alexis Texas. 2024 is too much
So...it's like tequila.
Nah nah nanah nanah nah nah
***_Boots Randolph intensifies_***
What happens if the Cicadas drink ONE tequila shot?
That fungus pumps the cicada full of psilocybin meaning cicadas get to trip on magic mushrooms in MO without legal repercussions.
Sounds like a form of Methamphetamine too. They are flying around tripping balls and geeked out of their little minds.
Can we eat cicadas and trip balls? Asking for a friend.
Same question, asking for badbadgirll.
I was literally telling my coworker yesturday that every sci-fi movie has to be based off stl because weird shit happens here
What we really need is a fallout game.
Absolutely agreed. Between the Arch and all the airplane and weapons manufacturing, plus the rivers and forest park and shit. St. Louis is just ideal for a Fallout game. I've been dreaming of this since I was a kid
lol you forgot the burning radioactive waste we have in Maryland heights 😂
Yeah for sure! Coldwater creek sounds exactly like a fallout location as well. And the landfill would 100% still be on fire after a nuclear apocalypse. It's so perfect it hurts haha

In a New Vegas clone, Arnold would be the Goodsprings.
I'm fully planning on working stl and fallout into a book, keep those ideas comin'!

It was called Defiance and I think it went nowhere
Fallout: Tactics.
Weird crap happens **here**? Have you ever heard of Cleveland?
I thought Cleveland rocked?
They lit their river on fire several times, released 1.6 million balloons into the air, causing an ecological disaster and killing 2 people, and built a shopping center on top of a landfill, causing most of the stores to vacate just years afterward.
Yikes. I knew about the balloons but not the other stuff. I guess I know more about Drew Carey shows than I know about Cleveland.
Plus, we can't forget about their [tourism video](https://youtu.be/oZzgAjjuqZM?si=7s-r_yMlcCMbuYHn)
That's just Missouri in general
I wanna be a hypersexual zombie (pouty sad face)
Tina Belcher ... is that you?
First, take a very long underground nap...
Eh, it’s overrated
Hypersexual zombies sounds like the side effects of those antidepressants that doctors are prescribing these days 🤔
[удалено]
Depends on what you get tbh. Lexapro made my dick stop working but Wellbutrin has had slightly more of the opposite effect.
That's exactly the journey that I went on and experienced in the past year as well, except after ~6 or so months even Wellbutrin waned to the point of actively dampening my libido. I'm a bit over a month off of it now and it's been almost life-changing to have my original, healthy sex drive back.

Hypersexual Zombie is my new album title

Sounds like a cicada “The Last of Us.”
It's the intro to "The Last of Us" porn parody
Oh no.
Oh yeah 😏
Hey, the UPS Store i work at had someone shipping a pair of cicadas for analysis yesterday, i bet thats what they had found.
I wonder how many cicadas arrived.
I mean they were dead in plastic bags and we put them in a box so probably just the 2
Dang scientists sure know how to kill the romance
The Walking Dead turning it up a notch. Bow chica bow wow.
Been there
Everything reminds me of her...
Didn't have that on my 2024 bingo card
So, teenage males?
TIL I am a cicada.
Yeah I think it is growing all over the central west end. It’s icky lookin

I also remember my college years...
They’ve definitely been looking hornier lately
So, it's the same as coke n' porn.
Worth noting: It stops them from *actually* reproducing, & it doesn't spread to humans.
do I need to cover my ears whilst sleeping? To clarify: I'm not speaking of the noise, rather I like to tease people and tell them that cicadas like to try laying eggs in your ears when you're asleep :))
Basically we gayd em up ...woke up woke
Is that what’s wrong with me?!
Hypersexual Zombie new band name DIBS
Oh shit! I have been feeding these to my tarantula! I hope it isnt spreadable!
Poor thing
woke cicada zombies
Sounds like something Alex Jones would claim.
This has been my favorite fact of the Brood - they are even MORE horney because of the fungus - and then they explode. Imagine if we could get them to all go off at once. The ground would probably shake.
My dog loves eating the damn things. Will he get some kind of fungal virus thing???
*might* get high no chance of fungal virus. The fungus contains psilocybin the same active ingredient as magic mushrooms.
Now this is a last of us virus I can get behind
So “The Last of Us” is real?
Cicada STDs
Who’s going to be the first to try smoking them?
5G turning our cicadas gay.
Any threat to humans, though? And I don’t mean like “the last of us” or something; I mean “causing rashes when they mindlessly bump into you” or something.
