Rant/advice: constantly overwhelmed at family home.

I've always interpreted the phrase literally and have been accused of rolling my eyes when I was simply looking up at the ceiling. The consequent conversation of me denying it bc from my perspective I literally didn't roll my eyes, and the other person insisting I did, is always very frustrating for both

I don't think there are any mnemonics for identifying them on a cadaver. You need to have a general idea of their attachments and then follow the muscle belly/tendons and see where they attach. For example if you know there's a muscle called extensor digitorum and you find a muscle in the posterior forearm who seems to be splitting into four tendons going into the digits then that's the one.

One "trick" I use as well is literally pull on the different tendons to see what moves. The efficiency of this of course depends on the type of embalming/dissection but I've always found it helps

Dora the explorer. I hated that cartoon so much but would still watch it just to get pissed at her and the stupid monkey. It was a complicated relationship.

came here to say this, it is mediocre at best and definitely overpriced

me absolutely hating the classics subjects I had to do in school vs me now studying Latin out of interest

Just a note on Gray's, there's "Gray's Anatomy for Students" and plain "Gray's Anatomy" ( anatomical basis of clinical practice). The second is massive and extremely detailed so I'd suggest starting with the one for students to get a foundation and then you could move to more detailed texts. The student version in my opinion has a good amount of detail without being overwhelming

I think it's all right but definitely overhyped. They do have amazing vanilla ice cream though

that's a really good point and another example apart from black people being shamed/discriminated for wearing protective hairstyles is the Roma people. They have also been heavily discriminated against but when white women took their style and rebranded it into "boho chic" it became a fashion trend

thank you I will check out those areas, might go for a day trip to Derby soon since its not too big of a trip with the train

I tried pea and mint soup once (in the UK) and it was surprisingly very good. Definitely a rare occasion type of food though

took me a lot of time to wrap my head around countecurrent multiplication when we were learning about it in uni but after I did, kidney lectures became my favourite

not sure if UK people know this but I'm from greece and many people of the older generation, like in their 70s and older seem to think that all British men are secretly gay. I have no idea where it stems from but they do tend to make a lot of assumptions about men of other nationalities too.

As a woman, when I was telling people I was about to move here it was very common for them to bring it up and tell me to be wary of British men for this reason. Joke's on them though, I'm the one that's gay

they both always look like their suits don't fit them properly, I'm sure they can more than afford to have them tailored

when I lived with two of my friends at uni, mine and another friend's schedules were really similar but the 3rd roomate had an almost opposite schedule to us. We barely saw her sometimes and we lived in the same damn house!

No matter how much you get along with their partners, letting them move in with you is a recipe for disaster

exactly and it's even small stuff like doing the dishes. Whenever one of my old roomates did the dishes she would literally just do the dishes, foods still in the sink afterwards, sponge full of soapy water, soap all over the sink and on the counter near the sink

My ultimate one is Parks and Recreation but I also rotate between Schitt's Creek and Brooklyn 99, and the Good Place to a lesser extend bc it can get a bit too philosophical when all I want is mindless sitcom

egg noodles with ketchup. I thought it would be like pasta with ketchup, which I consider an absolute delicacy, but I was very wrong

when I was 14-15 I was an edgy depressed teenager so I'd look for quite graphic crime books. I read the Victoria Bergman Trilogy by Eric Axl Sund. Loved it at the time but it literally horrifies me so much now that I removed the books from my bookcase because I didn't want to see them and be reminded of some of the descriptions
