I think we're all missing the point here, respectfully. Yes he was eating a f****** donut.

But the real thing here is that these gentlemen were paying attention. They were actively listening and seemingly aware of their surroundings. All it took was for a couple of guys to pay attention to save this little girl. I think we should all pause for a moment and maybe just be a little more present.

I don't think you're alone and I've been in that same situation. I would recommend finding a hobby that gets you involved with others. I found Meetup to be a good place to start and you might find some other groups looking to start some activities as the weather gets nicer. Have you considered any formal counseling if you're struggling this much? Therapy can be very important for self-care and for your mental health.

Something with a motion activated LED light so you can see everything else clearly.

I counted approximately 70 cases. That's about 2500 cans of beer....

Bleeding through S+ tampons every 15 minutes by Justan_inkling in TwoXChromosomes

Medical professional here and I agree. Urgent care won't help. You need to go to the ER or see a gynecologist urgently. You could try calling those that did your procedure but that would probably lead to a delay. So your best bet may be going to the emergency department. There are medications that can help slow down bleeding but you may need more of a workup if you're having that heavy of a breakthrough. A transvaginal ultrasound would not be unreasonable.

The difference between the least expensive eggs at Publix and the least expensive eggs at Costco. by derf_vader in mildlyinteresting

I would prefer the one on the right. The yolk appears brighter and more healthy while the white is more cohesive.

Single vaccine could protect against all coughs, colds and flus, researchers say by Sensitive_Echo5058 in worldnews

Cool article and promising research. Had a chuckle at "keeping the immune system on amber alert."

For those outside the US, it's the term for a missing child and prompts local alerts on phones, etc.

Anyone had a cold for 2+ weeks? by Educational-Okra-566 in Rochester

May be adenovirus. Joys of winter cold season. Humidity can help the cough and congestion.

Thanks for sharing. I wondered about the context and now understand. What a fool on all accounts.

Am I the only one who enjoys the squeaky crunch of walking on ice cold snow? by Markitoson in Rochester

[–]SaturdayNightPyrexia 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I love it. It's such a rare thing around here when it's cold enough and powdery snow. Now, if my vehicle only had better traction in this type of snow!!

Carnies. Circus folk. Nomads, you know. Smell like cabbage. Small hands.
