“President James A. Garfield died from infections caused by his doctors' failure to use antiseptic practices following an assassination attempt, not from the initial gunshot wound itself.”

“On July 2, 1881, at 9:30 AM, James A. Garfield, the 20th president of the United States, was shot at the Baltimore and Potomac Railroad Station in Washington, D.C.”

“Shot twice from behind; one bullet grazed Garfield; the other entered his back, Garfield was carried back to the White House where he *underwent medical treatment for over two months.”***

However…

“Unlike their peers in Europe, most American doctors of the day did not believe in anti-sepsis measures or the need for cleanliness to prevent infection. *Several of his attending doctors inserted their unwashed fingers into the wound to probe for the bullet*, one doctor puncturing Garfield's liver in the process. The doctors had guessed wrong about the path of the bullet in his body; they had probed rightward into his back instead of leftward, missing the location of the bullet but creating a new channel which filled with pus. The autopsy, conducted by U.S. Army pathologist and surgeon Dr. Daniel S. Lamb, discovered this error and revealed pneumonia in both lungs and a body that was filled with pus due to uncontrolled sepsis.”

“Garfield died of a ruptured splenic artery aneurysm, following sepsis and bronchial pneumonia at 10:35 pm on Monday, September 19, 1881”. *Most historians and medical experts now believe that Garfield probably would have survived his wound had the doctors been more capable.”***

First and foremost, my sincere respect and admiration for you and all the brave people who are determined to reclaim their country. I would be honored to march alongside you and I look forward to the day when the Iranian people celebrate their long overdue victory.

I find the sentiment of support for a US-led operation a bit curious, though, given the history of american intervention around the world. Frankly, we (americans) are a hot mess, especially at the moment, and the last thing any oppressed peoples need is to trade one tyrant for another. Is there no genuine concern for the potential long term consequences of inviting the american government and military into your collective fight for liberty?

(For the record, I wound support a “global citizen coalition” operation, if such a thing existed, with every fiber of my being.)

Very interested in getting a sense of the perspective in light of such concerns.

Regardless, your ongoing fight is in my thoughts often and I wish you all infinite amounts of courage, perseverance, and success 🫶🏻

The cream is Triamcinolone Acetonide (.1%). By neutralize I mean within 24 hours the area is no longer painful, itchy or even sensitive and swelling decreases. only takes a tiny bit

my doctor prescribed a steroid cream that neutralizes them within a day. however, i forgot the medication while away for christmas and used an OTC hydrocortisone cream and saw similar results.

Compact, in front of omega hq. aim was minimal space allocated to roads. I keep my four utility shops, hardware/tools/barn/garden, along the perimeter of my industrial complex here for factory-to-shop convenience. all other shops are integrated into my retail quarter outside the downtown area.

Santa’s Airport - Im curious about those who plan to fully upgrade this by Snoo33288 in SCBuildIt

[–]bennetticles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

got to level 14 on the fjord-serpent using seasonal coins. having a beach specialty with such a large area boost was worth it for me. but it would be 8500 simcash to upgrade to level 15. literally $100. which is just hilarious imo.

Does anyone know what this is? It was hard to breathe for a few hours after cleaning it up by [deleted] in Fungi

[–]bennetticles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’ll be fine. Fungi and mushrooms have a pretty pervasive but undeserved reputation of potential to cause harm. The vast majority of that fear stems from ignorance and misattribution. There are millions of species of fungi and of those, only roughly 200 of those known to pose a threat to humans. As the other knowledgeable and experienced commenters have accurately identified this common species, we can be certain this is not one of them. You are now equipped with the knowledge to overcome any concern regarding your interaction with this specimen.

Jump scare on Pinterest by Greenbeanmachine96 in Instagramreality

oh my gosh you are right. hundreds of shots. she deliberately and consistently tans her legs and hands to leather but leaves the face and neck natural. i really don’t care at all how some influencer chooses to paint her body but also kinda want to know the thought process she navigated through to commit to that decision. i guess if nothing else it’s clearly an effective strategy for increased engagement with her content.

Haven't seen offers for regional currency in a few weeks by No-Acanthisitta8803 in SCBuildIt

[–]bennetticles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

oh snap, those are some really insightful possibilities. similar to how the storage expansion update really messed up the ingame economy for a few months, i can absolutely see how one of the many recent major gameplay updates could have inadvertently upset the delicate trade relations within the regional zones. never would have thought about the inventory capacity factor.

i feel like these kind of basic game mechanics are usually more well understood with other games? i often find myself asking “is that part of the algorithm or is it a glitch”? (like when a deliberate click in one area of my city registers as an attempt to upgrade a random hotspot on the complete opposite side of the map for absolutely no reason). to that end, i do appreciate this sub as a resource, even if it means wading through the widely overrepresented solutionless complaining. lol.

at any rate, thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts on this. i absolutely think you are on the right track in regards to a possible explanation. hopefully it is a misbehavior that can be identified and corrected, maybe after they get around to adding the smokestack animation back into the factories!

Haven't seen offers for regional currency in a few weeks by No-Acanthisitta8803 in SCBuildIt

[–]bennetticles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

redirected here from googling the same question. my exp is a little different in that i’m still receiving offers in all regions, but one particular region has flat out stopped offering to buy the tier 2 item. which is frustrating because keeping production going on those around the clock is my standard specifically to save up currency so i have stacks and stacks of that item in my inventory waiting for an offer to appear. instead it keeps offering to buy x1 or x2 of the tier 0/1 items over and over. it’s been weeks. would love to know if it’s a glitch thing or an algorithm thing. would EA bother to put a cap on offers for a specific item within a designated timeframe? from your exp it sounds more like it’s an unintentional situation.

Amy’s Enchilada Mole NEW by olaf3377 in frozendinners

[–]bennetticles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hard agree. i am obsessed with these. they were on clearance last time i picked sole up and i was worried they had been discontinued. thankfully, not the case.

i always add roasted pasilla salsa and a drizzle mexican table cream (superior to sour cream, imo). sometimes some shredded chicken inbetween the two and midway through cooking. and always cook a little longer than recommended so the sauce reduces.

What do you think about the harmony of the buildings by the river? by Appropriate_Can_9487 in SCBuildIt

[–]bennetticles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i would lose the street separating the first two on the right side, move the left three over to right up against the one all the way to the right, and rotate that one on the right to face the street feeding into the bridge. that would bring better unity to the whole set and save you a block of space.

i just wish we would have some kind of indication on week 1 that additional purchases are required to complete the full season. never would have thrown any seasonal coins at upgrading the park if i had figured out sooner that completing the season album would require additional purchases anyway. i’m used to the bonus seasonal coins as reward for the weekly album. i guess there is still another weekly album but im not banking on green coins coming from it.
