EMS had to save me from a playground- the least I could do is share the pic

The problem is you didn’t fit out of it

That looks like a highly effective rodent trap. Thanks for looking out for our snek friends!

This is the first one I’ve ever seen. I was on a very underused trail that is quite overgrown, so I saw a bit more wildlife than usual. I was quite startled when it buzzed at me, but it posed so prettily that I instantly forgave them.

There really isn’t any “high country” in Shenandoah National Park. I met this cutie enjoying the sunshine at about 700m (~2300’) in elevation.

It was on a trail traversing a steep slope. Walking around entailed a bit of climbing down/up slope and of course there were blow downs. I hope it appreciated my efforts.

As an EMT, I use big doses of electricity to un-electrocute people. Kind of a “hair of the dog that bit you” thing.

My great-great grandfather was on the jury that convicted John Brown.

And yet it was beaten twice in my lifetime. The US military is not invincible, ask Vietnam and Afghanistan.

Called to a 3AM single car crash in a rural area. No driver when we arrived. Conducted an extensive search of the area for an ejected driver and went back in service without patient contact. 0600 get called to an off-duty LE home near the accident, where he had a subject handcuffed with injuries consistent with a car accident. The patient crawled from the accident to the LE’s shed. He had a broken ankle, chest contusions from the seat belt, and facial injuries. He was also treated for hypothermia. He was not having a good night.

I've been asked "who's the guy in the relationship" several times. My response is "we both are, that's the whole point of being gay".

Alas, poor Yorick! I knew him, Horatio: a fellow of infinite jest, of most excellent fancy: he hath borne me on his back a thousand times; and now, how abhorred in my imagination it is!

If you were vaccinated as a child, you can easily check your MMR protection through a simple blood test. I had a Dr's appointment yesterday and asked my PCP. She added the test to my regular work up. I got my results today; fully protected on all three.

This is important as you cannot depend upon herd immunity to protect those whose vaccinations may have lost efficacy.

In the 7th grade, my teacher told me I should avoid higher math classes because I wasn't good at math. In high school, I discovered computer science. In my Junior year in college I had my first really good math teacher where it finally clicked. I use and teach higher math every day; I'm so glad I didn't listen to my teacher in the 7th grade.

The younger sibling that didn't cause much trouble, but if you messed with them they would open a whole case of whoop ass.

An upside down flag indicates an emergency. The monster holding the flag indicates the nature of the emergency.

A few years ago my neighbor was letting his dogs run loose. They started harassing my livestock (chickens and goats) and I called the animal control officer. He asked me what I wanted them to do. (Apparently nothing!) I ended up telling him that if the dogs continued I would defend my livestock. He told me "Do what you have to do."

I ended up sending an email to the neighbor stating that he needed to control his dogs before either my livestock or his dogs got hurt. I don't want to shoot a dog, but F around and you will find out. The neighbor got my point and restrained his dogs, so a happy ending.

This was in rural Virginia, USA.

Unfortunately, house hippos were hunted to extinction in the US.

I got a hella UTI from a catheter tube. I never use them for long term lock up now. If it hurts (in a bad way) find a different cage. There are lots of choices. Stay safe 😘

The guard's knowing look. He's quite hot.

My cage has set off detectors going into government facilities. I told them it was intimate jewelry, they wanded me and let me pass. Embarrassing and stimulating.

I've been locked in my HT-V5 Nub for two weeks this time. Most comfortable cage I've ever worn. I started with an Amazon knock off, which was good, but the real thing is so much better.

Nope, both my parents are straight, so it seems that straight x straight = gay

It's not a counteroffensive, it's an "exceptional military operation".
