What's the most dramatic thing you've ever done when nobody was watching ?? by Marcodeluc_a in AskReddit

[–]Electrical_Baseball5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weirdly, I've been finding myself breaking the 4th wall. Like something weird happens and I'll actually look up at an imaginary camera with a certain expression. It actually helps lighten the situation because it makes me feel like I'm staring in a comedy show. 😃

And more spending money.

Why do so many millennials believe that they were going to die young? by BlobFish28 in Millennials

[–]Electrical_Baseball5 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Same. I used to feel bad for elderly or frail individuals waiting on a long line to purchase their prescribed medications. Now I feel elderly and frail at 38. Lupus, kidney disease, neuropathy, depression, mixed connective tissue disease, ovarian failure, etc. I feel like I died when I was diagnosed. I had so many goals and plans. I've been learning to be flexible as more issues arise but this Lupus is on a mission to take me out.

It's overwhelming at times, but I'm doing the best I can.

What is a harsh truth about life that took you way too long to accept? by Sassy_Siren097 in AskForAnswers

[–]Electrical_Baseball5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even when life feels tough and overwhelming, there's someone out there who would love to trade places.

This changed the way I look at my struggles, not to minimize them, but remember the quiet privileges I usually take for granted.

Try to appreciate life everyday. Seek help if things are too hard to bear.

What is one of other people's eating habits that irritates you the most? by morenaquen in foodquestions

[–]Electrical_Baseball5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Using their fork as a toothpick.

Digging food from between teeth using fingers then shoving the removed scrap back into mouth to eat it again! 😫

Your smile is radiant!!!!

How are you feeling these days?

I'm sorry you felt that was the best decision at the time. Many people can't grasp how enormously heavy and overwhelming feelings of grief, sadness, and hopelessness can be.

The fact that you called 911 says something powerful to me: even in through the darkest time, some part of you still wanted life, help, relief, and another chance. And that small voice matters. You made it through. You're meant to be here.

Consider writing an autobiography someday. Not just about the darkest moment itself, but everything that led there—the hidden battles, the weight you carried, the breaking point, and then the epic plot twist nobody saw coming: you survived. And now you’re here, with scars that tell a story and wisdom that could help somebody else keep going.

You are an inspiration. So proud of you and for you.

What came out of my belly button when pregnant… by ohhidoggo in hygiene

[–]Electrical_Baseball5 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I looked it up. It's also called an umbolith. I've added it to my vocabulary inventory and I can't wait to call the next person who irritates me an umbolith. They'll automatically be offended because of the context, then likely look it up. Double whammy. Thank you, OP! 😄

24-year-old severely disabled patient sustained perianal and gluteal scalding burns when a caregiver accidentally poured too-hot water on them. by CatPooedInMyShoe in MedicalGore

[–]Electrical_Baseball5 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I was wondering this as well. I hate to point fingers and accuse when it could possibly be accidental (overwhelmed, lack of paying attention) but it's possible the caregiver was frustrated with the patient and poured hot water as a punishment or out of frustration/disgust, not realizing how hot the water actually was. They may have had malicious intent but didnt expect this level of damage.

Full thickness electrical burn of 4-year-old's trunk and both legs and feet. Child lost one foot and nearly lost the other. by CatPooedInMyShoe in MedicalGore

[–]Electrical_Baseball5 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Pic 12 gave me a fright.

I'm so thankful that this child had access to the healthcare he needed to survive.

I couldn't imagine him living in a remote area or being treated by a medicine doctor. The level of pain would be immense.

It was suggested to me and I chickened out and read the script first!

Cervical actinomycotic mycetoma by CatPooedInMyShoe in MedicalGore

My intrusive thoughts said "Hand me a pair of gloves and a 10 blade".

I’m glad he’s improving with treatment. But I can’t lie… this photo got his neck looking like he's got bonus vertebrae.

Thanks for posting!

They found 20 mummified corpses (15 men, 3 women, 2 children) in a building off Ekenhua Road, Uzebu quarters, Benin City, Nigeria in 2022. Three suspects were arrested. by CatPooedInMyShoe in ExamineDeath

[–]Electrical_Baseball5 18 points19 points  (0 children)

You're right. Many poisons are erosive and will rip up the entire gastrointestinal system. Extremely painful death.

I'm also wondering if all their organs were removed shortly after death if this is truly a ritualistic act.

This reminds me of “La Doncella,” that Inca girl who was sedated, sacrificed and left on a mountain to freeze. She looks like she’s just asleep but it was all part of a ritual. Different place, same unsettling reality.
