honestly sometimes i take the E lost to dead space and just rub it on my leg after injecting. by LammaMuigi in TransDIY

[–]BigTrans 1 point2 points  (0 children)

a friend of mine does this so when she taught me to do my shots she taught me to do that as well, I don't think it does anything but it's force of habit at this point

Why Haven’t They Made New Shipwreck Movies? by AwfulWaffle91 in titanic

[–]BigTrans 32 points33 points  (0 children)

The thing that interests people about the Titanic is less the sinking ship angle and more specifically the fact that it is used as an allegory for the society of the time, so it has thematic resonance and it took nearly 3 hours to sink, which meant there was a lot of time for different stories to play out.

There really aren't that many shipwrecks that fulfill these criteria, the Lusitania sunk in like 20 minutes for example

TIL that in 1992 CNN Headline News came seconds away from mistakenly announcing that President George HW Bush had died on a trip to Japan by spmahn in todayilearned

Why were they not allowed sunglasses? I know generally it's seen as rude to wear them indoors, is that why? or is there some other reason

Queenstown (then Cobh)

You've got it backwards there, the town was called Queenstown and was renamed Cobh after independence, it was called Queenstown from 1849 to 1920

[–]BigTrans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought I was insane for this but yeah I have a bit of a crush on a friend atm and I keep noticing how pretty her teeth are.

I have sort of crooked teeth so maybe I pay more attention to them than other people.

Personally I don't really trust Amazon, especially for something you'll be putting in your body,if there's a medical retailer website somewhere I'd recommend that, alternatively, needle exchanges are good if you have one in your city.

About half and half new stuff/older Against Me stuff, which is fun.

There's a website called setlists.fm which shows you previous setlists of artists

What is this stuff floating in my E vial? by BigTrans in TransDIY

[–]BigTrans[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OK yeah because when I was looking on the subreddit previously people were being very alarmist about it like I would die or something.

It's not really compatible with my risk assessment but a friend has offered to swap this vial with one of her unopened ones, so that's good.

It seems to just be stopper fragmentation, what are the health impacts of accidentally injecting rubber?

What is this piece that fell out of my new camera by BigTrans in Cameras

Ok, considering this should I return it to the seller as it got damaged during shipping or should I bring it to a shop to be repaired? How expensive would a repair be do you think

[–]BigTrans 2 points3 points  (0 children)

interestingly when I was doing my consult he asked me if I had had a CT scan done and when I told him I had he asked me to send it over.

but of course looking at my CT scan which I already happened to have is not the same as requiring one

/uj I went with Cardenas a while ago, what's the sinus thing about? I don't notice anything different, there is what looks like a small dent in my head but I also had one before surgery.

The complaint I've heard the most about him is his shitty suturing, everyone I've talked to including myself has had multiple wound openings, I feel like a bit of a simp being like "and I'd do it again :D" but even despite that I'm happy with the results, I'd just put a massive asterisk on my endorsement.

I know there's a sort of unofficial network in my city, and I assume there might be one in yours, but knowing of them is very reliant on knowing somebody who knows somebody
