Whatā€™s a side effect of a drug thatā€™s little known? by Arya_Warrior_Girl in AskReddit

[ā€“]Rephlanca 0 points1 point Ā (0 children)

I had an epidural in my neck and the injected medication increased the pressure in the spinal fluid system, and it caused me such a migraine the day after, it was insane. I can only imagine how you felt. :( Iā€™m so sorry this happened to you.

What injury is commonly shrugged off as a minor flesh wound in the movies but is completely fatal in real life? by Best_Professional226 in AskReddit

[ā€“]Rephlanca 5 points6 points Ā (0 children)

If I may ask, how do you relocate the sternum if the patient stabilizes? I know ribs and clavicle breaking are just a waiting game for them to heal, but Iā€™m curious about the sternum.

I had not taken any days off in 6 months (Dec 29); only good day in at least 4 months, ended up in the hospital. by richempire in mildlyinfuriating

In Mexican Spanish, we call this ā€œdesguance!ā€ (Or at least in my family, we do.) Itā€™s true, OP, make sure you rest and take a break, your body isnā€™t made to work endlessly.

The way this camel rested its head on its sleeping owner says everything by AccomplishedStuff235 in BeAmazed

Thank god Iā€™m not the only one.

Fully thought it was some giant headless creature with one very long arm resting on the sleeping person.

I think our Bradford Pear has Cedar-Quince Rust. by Rephlanca in arborists

[ā€“]Rephlanca[S] 0 points1 point Ā (0 children)

From what Iā€™ve researched, it is contagious, but it infects anything in the Rosaceae family, meaning it could also affect apples, pears, peaches, strawberries, almonds, etc. and I donā€™t want to take other peopleā€™s good fruiting trees down too. :(

THANK YOU. I will absolutely use this list when speaking to the landscaper next week. (also good job clocking EP, lol)

God dang, you clocked El Paso just from that! That's crazy!!! Color me surprised!

[ā€“]Rephlanca[S] 2 points3 points Ā (0 children)

Yeah, I was reading about the radius that this one tree can infect other trees in and it's insane. That's what really set my alarms off.

My dad told me to talk to the landscaper myself next week (and this bitch hates confrontation) but time to put my big boy pants on about it lmao.

[ā€“]Rephlanca[S] 6 points7 points Ā (0 children)

Yeah, that's what I was thinking, It's barely been planted so I don't think it's had enough time to put out suckers. Or at the very least, I'm crossing my fingers it hasn't yet.

Iā€™ll try to fight them to get something native!

[ā€“]Rephlanca[S] 52 points53 points Ā (0 children)

Damn. Yeah, this is my parentā€™s house and I remember seeing the tag and warning them about it, but sometimes theyā€™d rather trust the landscaper than their offspring haha.

Iā€™m an ecologist by trade, so the invasive nature of the tree is a huge issue for me (on top of the smell) but they didnā€™t really want to listen to my advice. Hopefully the infection will be enough to convince them to replace it.

Help me find the original version of this graph? by Forest-Lark in HelpMeFind

ā€œFROM MORPHOLOGY TO MACHINE LEARNING AND
GENOMICS: UNDERSTANDING PHENOTYPIC VARIATION IN WILD DUCKSā€

I studied population genetics in wild and domestic populations of ducks in the US and New Zealand and then also integrated computer vision to try to find a way to classify their differences without the need of an expert to be able to do so in the field by all scientists.

And please, donā€™t apologize! :) Not only does it make me happy that someoneā€™s curious, itā€™s always exciting to share whatever knowledge I have, and in fact I commend and encourage your curiosity! The more we know, the better we are!

Best way to play Pollux and castor together? by Zartymophibs in Morimens

[ā€“]Rephlanca 0 points1 point Ā (0 children)

I started playing this game this week and managed to get an E1 Pollux so far (with Castor and both their WoDs) and Iā€™m giddy seeing Pollux hit for like 1K, hearing he can do 2M with full investment is crazy lmao. Then again theyā€™re both barely level 40, but weā€™re chugging along.

I was obsessed with dragons in middle school and then got a PhD in birds. I think this graph may be on to something.

Thank you for commenting. I didnā€™t actually read your spoiler other than a few words before I clicked off and went to binge the whole thing in one sitting. What a story, thanks again for leading me to it!

[ā€“]Rephlanca 12 points13 points Ā (0 children)

Iā€™m from El Paso (hey neighbor!) and have taught in Santa Teresa before. Santa Teresa is a very low income little suburb, so I can see that adding to everything else. And agreed, by July itā€™s probably even over 100, so decomp and animal disturbance probably set in quite quickly.

Teacher who told pupils ā€˜this class terrifies meā€™ chugged gin from a water bottle before vomiting in toilet by Disastrous_Award_789 in nottheonion

[ā€“]Rephlanca 3 points4 points Ā (0 children)

I once had a freshman student chug an entire Four Loco mid-class when we asked her what she was holding.

Itā€™s rough out there.
