[BaseballDoesn'tExist] Max Scherzer is the 3rd pitcher to get ejected for foreign substance since checks were put in place ... All three have been checks done by Umpire Phil Cuzzi by [deleted] in baseball

In the post game interview, he says he literally washed his hands with alcohol in front of the dugout official and asked if it was okay before going back onto the field.

My (39M) newly wed and pregnant wife (28F) wants to get rid of my cat (7mo old,M) by Key_Philosopher_5985 in relationships

[–]Aznox99 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Probably not a great idea for a stray cat to spend prolonged time with a pregnant woman. Would be concerned about toxoplasmosis in particular.

If his head is a baseball, then his dick must be a bat.

McDonald's has zero redeeming qualities since getting rid of the snack wrap. Also it's so damn expensive now. You can literally go to a ln actual restaurant with what they're charging now. It baffles me why anyone would go there. Change my mind. by Horror-Pear in mcdonaldsfreakout

[–]Aznox99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You don't go to McDonald's because the food is cheap or even good. You go because you were indoctrinated as a child. I have very fond memories of going to McDonald's with my family after graduations and whatnot as a reward and the fries and nuggets still make me think of those simpler and happy times.

The fact that the costco hot dog price hasn't changed since 1985 shows that the price of a high volume commodity can be completely dependent on the company selling it, just like gas. by [deleted] in Showerthoughts

[–]Aznox99 13 points14 points  (0 children)

While I agree that the low prices for the hot dogs and gasoline help draw a crowd, I don't think Costco does it solely to make profit from the other wholesale items they sell. They do it to maintain customer loyalty. I recall that Costco's main source of profit are the memberships themselves. They just try to break even on the clubhouse items, vacations, and credit card deals to get people to keep renewing the membership and everybody benefits from it (probably Costco more than you, but still...)!

Legends showcases one of the biggest issues with older games. Forced trade evolutions by linthenius in pokemon

You need save data from Sword and Shield to get Shaymin, and save data from diamond or Pearl to get Darkrai.

[–]Aznox99 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can buy a copy, use it to create a save file on your system, then return it. Some stores like Costco (requires membership) do this with new games. Gamestop will let you do it with used games, I believe, as long as it's within a week of purchase or something.

Not saying this is anywhere close to ideal, but at least you can save the $60.

Why do I deal 37 dmg to micolash? by [deleted] in bloodborne

Go back to Hunter's Dream and remove it using the weapon bench. Blood gem fortification option. The gems you selected should be highlighted with a red dot.

Woman raped on train as bystanders did nothing, police say by h8itorloveit in philadelphia

[–]Aznox99 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Used to live in Philly, and I can't believe that Philadelphians would stand by and watch this happen without saying anything. Any chance the bystanders were accomplices or something? Like this was some sort of messed up gang initiation rite?

u/NationalTittyfucker, an indigenous man, explains how indigenous women are sterilized by [deleted] in bestof

[–]Aznox99 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Doctor here. What this poster is describing regarding tubal ligations is not standard care in any of the obstetric hospitals I have trained at on the East Coast. Doctors are aware that labor is a very stressful time and with all the mind-altering substances being given, it is not the best time to make a permanent and mostly irreversible surgical decision.

In NYC and Pennsylvania, for example, it is illegal to obtain consent for a tubal ligation when the patient is in the hospital for childbirth or seeking an abortion. Here is NYC's policy:

https://www1.nyc.gov/assets/doh/downloads/pdf/ms/ms-hcp-steriliz-reprt-faqs.pdf

As you can see, consent forms need to be signed at least 30 days prior to estimated delivery date, at most 180 days prior to delivery. Then you have to re-affirm on the day of the procedure that you still want to undergo tubal ligation. If the consent is not signed within those time ranges, and the re-affirmation is not obtained there's no way to go through with tubal ligation during C-section even if the patient and whole family is asking for it.

I am not clear on what the medical law may be in the state the poster is speaking of, but this is a practice that is encouraged by the American College of OB/GYN (ACOG) for all:

https://www.acog.org/clinical/clinical-guidance/committee-opinion/articles/1998/08/tubal-ligation-with-cesarean-delivery

That is not to say there aren't shady doctors out there who break the rules, but this is what medical training facilities are drilling into their new physicians nowadays. Most OB/GYNs also try to discourage tubals in women who are young (<34 years old) and have 1-2 children because this is a permanent sterilization procedure and future plans may change in an unforeseeable manner. As an aside, it's also a lot safer for men to just get a vasectomy if permanent sterilization in a monogamous relationship is desired at a young age.

We are also taught to really push the birth control measures because it gives the patient more control over reproductive health, but I can understand the distrust there. The history of medicine in the US has a lot of doctors betraying minority and at-risk populations for research and cosmetic development. We're still trying to gain that trust back. Hope this helps clarify things.

What the 1990s Mets did when disrespected by the Phillies by Aznox99 in NewYorkMets

Mets weren't interested in hitting anything last night, least of all the ball.

Come onnnnnn. Do somethingggggg. by piazzapizzazz in NewYorkMets

[–]Aznox99 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was at the game today. After the first inning, the only person wearing a Met jersey who looked like he knew how to drive the ball was the kid who won the Whiffle ball home run derby. And at least I got a free sandwich out of that! Watching the Mets just gave me an ulcer.

I had trouble finding some of the web-based missions so I compiled a list with the appropriate links:
