Destress? Destress?! Why don't I just put on my destress helmet, wiggle down into my destress cannon, and fire myself off into destress land where destressors grow on destressies?

I think it was a typo. I think what they wanted to say was "de-dress".
I'm on month 2 of an eye twitch. Last time it was 4 months in my arm and before that 4 months in my other eye.
WebMD points me to nerve damage but I’m also very tired 🙃
Are you epileptic?
Nope, no other nerve issues that I know of.
That's pretty wild. I have epilepsy and get seizures that are exactly as you describe, though I don't think I've had one for a month.
Why is memes the most informative community?
I had eye twitching, went to an eye doctor and I had some mild astigmatism that my eyes were trying to compensate for and getting exhausted, especially when staring at computer screens, they don't twitch now with glasses.
If you're on Windows 11, go to the Start Menu and type "Night Light" and setup your screen so it's super yellow. Or, alternatively, download the F.lux app which does the same thing. It'll look disgustingly yellow for the first minute and then you won't realise it's on. Then, feel your eye strain wash away :D.
On X11 Linux, install redshift with your package manager. Run it.
Everyone thinks I'm crazy, but for as long as I can remember I can usually stop mild twitches by just thinking about it. They sometimes come back after a few minutes but usually not.
That's probably the only superpower I have.
Don't have caffeine? Top panel reaction is right
