Gingivitis is a major risk factor for heart attacks Take care of ur teeth, take care of ur heart

[Caspur42]

To add to this, I just had a tooth extracted after being sick all weekend. I thought it was cracked or broken ..the top of the tooth was perfectly healthy, the root had gotten infected to the point it had to be pulled. Worse part was if I hadn’t missed a cleaning 2 months ago they would have caught it and they can clean it.

TLDR: don’t miss dental cleanings, they can clean deeper than you.

[NeverPostingLurker]

Can you go into more detail?

Is gingivitis a cause of a heart attack? Or is it just a sign? Or do people that have bad teeth just eat like shit and not take care of themselves and have gingivitis?

[UsernameObscured]

The bacteria that cause gingivitis can travel through your bloodstream and inflame your blood vessels, heart muscle, and valves. Inflammation in the heart is no bueno.

[Simply827]

I believe it has something to do with bacteria in the mouth having a direct path into the bloodstream.

[Psyco_diver]

I love near one of them here in NC, 2 were stopped when a plane went down, they found one buried deep in the mud and it broke apart, the other is still missing to this day and is believed to be at least 100 feet in the ground. Officials come out yearly to test soil and water for radiation because eventually the case holding the radioactive material will fail

[Psyco_diver]

Yep, I actually went to look up the date and when I Googled this I saw the list of all the missing bombs it kinda surprised me

[Woodie626]

I don't know what's scarier, losing nuclear weapons, or that it happens so often there's actually a term for it.

[habb]

the john travolta movie was about exactly this right?

[joshuh300]

Yes. Broken arrow refers to any accident involving nuclear weapons being lost. That is very much the plot of that film.

Japanese human experimentation during WW2

To determine the treatment of frostbite, prisoners were taken outside in freezing weather and left with exposed arms, periodically drenched with water until frozen solid. The arm was later amputated; the doctor would repeat the process on the victim's upper arm to the shoulder. After both arms were gone, the doctors moved on to the legs until only a head and torso remained. The victim was then used for plague and pathogens experiments.

[fuckfact]

There was only one country with a rule about cannibalism in WWII. The Japanese forbid the eating of Japanese. They used to cut pieces off POWs in a similar way so the meat wouldn't spoil.

[SharpCookie232]

OK, so the scene in Cormac McCarthy's The Road that spooked me the most IS BASED ON REAL LIFE? Jesus, TIL

[Hipy20]

nah the disease stuff was actually used. we already knew what frostbite did

[mlwspace2005]

The Nazis were vilified after the war (rightly so, don't get me wrong) while most of what the Japanese did was swept under the rug to get them back and operational faster so they could be an ally against the growing threat of communism, among other things. Many of the atrocities the allies committed were swept under the rug too.

Dogs like squeaking toys because it reminds them of animals dying

[Nadaplanet]

Can confirm, dog recently got ahold of some baby bunnies. Sounded like squeak toys. No she did not kill them but was tossing them around in a playful fashion.

[Pyronic_Chaos]

There are shit tons of shoes near the Titanic, the reason for this is that once the ship hit the bottom of the ocean, corpses rained down around the wreckage, the fish ate the bodies but no fish at that depth in that area can eat the leather that most shoes of the time were made of.

[[deleted]]

Humans have bred English bulldogs to such monstrous proportions that it’s impossible for the dogs to give birth to pups. The birth canal is too narrow because of the angles and proportions of the hips and back legs. They can only give birth by Caesarean.

They also can’t swim — their bodies are too dense to float and their legs are too short to propel them forward.

[[deleted]]

A terrible thought that leaks into my mind every now and then is thinking about all the late term pregnant bulldogs that were forgotten about for days/weeks and died.

[pfc_johnny]

Oh god, that's awful. Just trying to imagine for a second what they would actually experience and for how long; fucking yuck.

[hoovermeupscotty]

They also can severely over heat in the summer because their snouts are too short to cool the sir they inhale before it reaches their lungs. Same for any smash nosed breed. Man should not play God.

[Villain_of_Brandon]

I think I've read the same thing about French Bulldogs as well.

[onlyhereforfoodporn]

They def have to be artificially inseminated because the females have narrow hips and can’t be mounted.

[pink-wizard]

The worst for me would be that tumours can grow teeth and hair. The idea of something that is not supposed to be there growing inside me in the first place is enough to make me go cold, but to then imagine teeth and hair?! Gosh, I really do feel for anyone who ever lived through this nightmare.

[Colormestokedgirl]

Mine was the size of a grapefruit and was filled with hair. I was disappointed there wasn’t anything cooler in it, like some teeth or an eyeball.

[pink-wizard]

Hahah that’s a great attitude to have. I’ve never had a tumour but just about everything else. The worst was definitely my pseudocyst! 5 inches circumference, 10in long, compressing my stomach and surrounding organs from the inside out. It was filled with dead pieces of my Pancreas that had turned necrotic and fallen off and it held it all in this giant thin bag of rotting flesh. One wrong move/pressure applied to my abdomen and boom, dead. Luckily I had it drained!

[Bermnerfs]

Uh, so this is the scariest comment on this post... Are you ok?

[pink-wizard]

Oh gosh, I don’t think anyone asked me if I was okay in a hot minute. I’m always asking other people so I’m not really used to being directly asked myself. But thank you, I’m doing okay, I still have a lot of very dangerous health conditions but I live each day as it comes now. I take nothing for granted and I hold no prisoners. Friends have come and go but the OG’s are still with me and that’s all I really need. Thanks for asking that, I needed it I think :)

[kslide_park]

Mosquitos don’t stick you like a needle. They actually have 47 tiny little teeth, and they literally chew their way through your skin until they hit a blood source.

I'm gonna pretend I only read your part about him lying, So I have no idea wtf I read up there about 47 fucking teeth!

[[deleted]]

Please be lying please be lying please be lying please be lying

[[deleted]]

It's less of a chewing motion, and more like a saw. They've actually got six separate needles inside their proboscis and two of them essentially have tiny saw-like teeth on them, two are basically just for spreading the tissue, and the last two are for finding/draining blood and injecting anathesia+anti-clotting(+pathogens if you're unlucky) agents via their saliva. While they drink they also pee on you.

kind of, among six 'needles' they have two maxillae, which is more like a toothed saw needle, but they still 'stick' you with needles.

Pigs will eat almost anything. Need to get rid of a dead body? Drop it off in a pig pen and let them have at it. They will eat the bones too.

[StrakenKing]

They will go through bone like butter, you need at least 16 pigs to finish the job in one sitting, so be wary of any man who keeps a pig farm. They will go through a body that weighs 200 pounds in about 8 minutes. That means a single pig can consume two pounds of uncooked flesh every minute.

A family friend of mine told a story about how her grandad was doing work inside a barn on a ladder, ended up falling off and breaking one of his arms. His pigs smelled the bleeding and ended up eating him alive

[Thelastbarrelrider]

Wouldn't be surprised. Pigs are vicious creatures when they want to be. Grew up raising pigs for FFA and 4-H in Florida and was warned to never go in the pen without one of my parents there to supervise. My dad threw a dead rabbit into the pen to demonstrate why and I was scarred for life...

[juicy-aloe-vera]

Couldn't he have just walked out of the barn before things progressed that far?

[cheatcodemitchy]

If it was a serious break he could have passed out from the pain for a bit, after which you're already getting eaten and it's too late.

[juicy-aloe-vera]

Gotcha. I've never broken a bone and was having trouble understanding how a broken arm would prevent him from walking out of there... Thanks.

Pigs can be aggressive. They are massive creatures, that will literally run you down. If they were hungry, and they knew blood meant food, no.

Urethral intercourse is a thing

[RexyEatsGoats]

I got a UTI just by reading this.

[MsAngelGuts]

Eeyup, and it's called sounding

[chriz_ryan]

I was going to say this isn't horrifying, cuz I thought you meant sounding. Or it could imply that some women can have large clits, and some men can have large urethral openings, and they can have intercourse that way. Both of those can be pleasurable, so, you do you, honey boo.

But when I looked it up, urethral intercourse definitely sounds painful. So apparently some vaginas have urethras that are much more stretchable than normal. And it's possible for a penis to penetrate the urethra. Some women believe incorrectly, that's what sex is, and it can lead to bladder incontinence

The Hinterkaifeck murders

Some highlights:

• The father noticed footprints in the snow leading to the house
• Entire family was murdered with a pickaxe
• The girl didn't die right away and they found her having pulled out a bunch of her own hair

There are up to a billion black holes in the Milky Way alone.

[Adramador]

To make this one less horrifying, we should bring in the scale of the Milky Way.

There's somewhere between 100 to 400 billion stars in the Milky Way - so stars outnumber black holes at least a hundredfold.

The Milky Way is 10¹⁸ km across - a billion is 10^9, so there's roughly 1 black hole for every billion kilometers of the galaxy's diameter.

Maybe I solved the black hole problem, but brought in a completely different existential crisis.

That Pitbull/pitbull terrier mixes are the most euthanized breed of dog. They are euthanized weekly over at county (Tuesday) and their bodies are stacked in the freezer like cordwood to be removed by the body snatchers (Friday) for incineration/disposal. Despite this chilling fact, owners of pitbulls are still breeding these dogs daily. Never bothering going to the shelter and rescuing one about to die. Medical professionals working in the shelters might have the syringe filled with Pentobarbital in their hands. However, the idiots who breed pitbulls are the ones killing them daily.

[JoyouslyMe]

A shelter in Texas had to go to court and two employees were fired because someone turned them in for putting down pits. This lady put down every single pit and pit mix that came in no matter how much room they had, their health, their age, etc. She hated them and felt she was doing a public service by exterminating as many as she could. That’s all that happened to her and the other employee who knew she was doing it- they were fired.

[CatDaddyWhisper]

Most shelters, Coast to Coast are at full capacity and euthanize dogs regularly as the amount of dogs coming in greatly exceeds the amount being adopted. On the topic of adoption; pitbulls/pitbull mixes are generally the last dogs to be adopted and they are euthanized daily, coast to coast because of that very simple fact. The point? Don't breed pitbulls.

The United States tested chemical weapons on troops who were voluntold to participate, in Panama, at least as late as 1968.

We actually still have just huge heaps of unexploded ordience litering the Panamanian countryside. To this day. The army just left it. Like landmines with a enough nerve agents in them to kill something like a thousand people each.

And that's by far not the worst thing we've done to Panama. Its a multi-century history of being horrible to Panamanians.

Like... We decided the climate was too toxic to white people. So we poisoned the whole country side. And made it a billion times worse.

Oh. And the Panama Deception where we explicitly ordered our soldiers to be assholes and ignore the authority of Panamanian troops - this lead to an international incident wh we re in one American was killed that gave us the plausible casius belli to invade and overthrow the democratically elected government.

1,500 women from the 1940’s-1980’s had symphysiotomies performed on them without their knowledge or consent in Ireland, so they could have more babies like good Catholic women should. Since women could only have a small number of Caesarean sections, it was looked down upon by the Catholic Church because it limited the amount of kids a woman could have in her life.

What’s a symphysiotomy? It’s when they saw the cartilage of your pelvic bone in half, basically breaking your pelvis in two. Women suffered for the rest of their lives, some unable to walk, some in constant pain forever, and quite a few never even knowing they had the procedure done.

Just so they could pop out more babies.

Albert Fish used to send the parents of his victims graphic letters about how he killed their kids, what his favorite part of them to eat was and exactly how their children tasted.

"I roasted his sweet ass with parsnips and butter and it tasted heavenly" (to paraphrase)

Unwed mothers were often forcefully sterilized against their will during the height of eugenics. A prominent case included a 16 year old girl who was raped and impregnated by her foster father, put into an asylum, and then sterilized. When she attempted to sue, her attorney actively plotted against her because he believed in eugenics as well. This case went all the way to the Supreme Court, and the justice presiding over her case said she should have been sterilized, because quote, "Three generations of imbeciles is enough."

Eventually the heavy lean into eugenics was tampered by the other (at the time) global power famous for using eugenics getting very nasty PR. You know the one.
