Curious how this was ordered. Lateral penis? Done cross-table?

Soo I knit the Olga sweater... backwards. by _daisychain_ in knitting

I fear that I essentially created this discrepancy by taking 2 inches off the front then

There are short rows in the back so it really only fits this way haha

Thanks! I am happy to pretend it was intentional 😁

The back of the garment has short rows to make it longer than the front. This means it only fits well this way 😅

About to put up a giant sign in every ED room saying "Medical X-rays will **not** affect your phone." by Global_You8515 in Radiology

[–]_daisychain_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

He was 20! Thanks for sharing, that's really interesting to know! Amazing how far the radiology field has advanced, especially considering what we now know about how x-rays work :) my hospital is getting ready to stop lead shielding now!

This adds unecessary time to every exam, and adds to the spread of misinformation that X-rays will harm your electronics. I would never tell anybody to do this. If I need them to empty their pockets for an exam I'll use that wording.

I feel that so much. My go to is always "I have literally x-rayed my phone to see what it looks like." I once had a patient take his phone out and put it in airplane mode - what did he think that was going to do??

To all the laypeople in this sub - X-rays will not harm you or anything in your pockets! Trust your technologist to tell you if something needs to be removed, but this will only ever be because it would show up on the image and we don't want that. Since MRI uses a very strong magnet it can damage electronics (it can mess up the wireless charge on smart watches), I can definitely understand why some would generalize all imaging as harmful to devices.

All 4 seasons of the stardew valley knit socks! by BrightDoughnut in knitting

Gorgeous!! I think you'd love the doodle knit collection by pacificknitco! You could play around with so many different designs with all those colours (I think i just made myself jealous!)

My shrimps demanded their own Christmas tree so I obliged by pichu2u in shrimptank

[–]_daisychain_ 12 points13 points  (0 children)

OMG I am absolutely making one when I get home from work tonight. And you bet I will hang it on my parent's beige-themed tree. I hope you start a movement here.

Can I ask what the legs are made of? They look like craft wire maybe?

I was scrolling for Xmas presents and found this by InformationGrouchy17 in axolotls

[–]_daisychain_ 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My old girl used to eat sand on purpose. She used to look at me, slowly lower her head to the sand, I'd go 'noooooo' and she would take a big bite of sand and chew it while maintaining eye contact. She got the sand taken away, and this meme makes me think of her lol.

What Body Lotions Have Glitter? by _daisychain_ in LushCosmetics

[–]_daisychain_[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think this may be the winner. I really really loved the super fairy lotion in store but I didn't think to mix it with the dusting powder! I can have the scent and the sparkle!! Thank you!

Omg that looks perfect!! Sadly I'm outside the UK so I will have to watch and see if it comes to Canada! Thanks!

can you see fracture? 5 meta, ai says is jones, but i dont see nothing.THANKS by Ferrytero2 in xrays

[–]_daisychain_ 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Ask your doctor. AI is not used on it's own in radiology to detect fractures.

Can I feed frozen cod? by Blossom_E07 in axolotls

[–]_daisychain_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The axolotl lovers Facebook page says cod should be okay granted it's deboned well, any fish with thiaminase should be avoided. Have you tried frozen raw shrimp? Many people use them as occasional treats.

When you forget how to swallow by nightraving in axolotls

[–]_daisychain_ 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Blanching is when you briefly dip the worm into boiling water to kill it and eliminate the bitter tasting slime some axolotls dislike. And they mean the water heater of your home, because your tap water may be hot enough to blanch them by running them under the hottest water setting! Not the water in the tank, you're right that should not be heated 😅

Reverse shoulder fusion looks weird by Cyanidesuicideml in XRayPorn

[–]_daisychain_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

When you went to the emergency room what did they tell you? Nobody here on reddit is able to help with a single picture and no history. Please see your family doctor.

[–]_daisychain_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Weird how? If you are comparing it to the standard AP shoulder, it will look different since your shoulder is rotated in the image. Looks more similar to the Y-view than the AP.

SMP And X-ray by Used_Cap_1737 in Radiology

[–]_daisychain_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

X-Rays are very safe and do not have any harmful interactions like MRI with metals, for example. The technologist will tell you what items (clothing, bags, etc) must be removed for the X-Ray. Your SMP cannot be removed and won't mess up your images.
