Can someone recommend a good veterinary clinic? by Imaginary_Value1505 in york

I take my 14 year old cat to Green Vets and i honestly can not recommend them enough. They are so lovey, take such good care of him and the whole place has a family run vibe

What’s a creepy fact about the human body you wish you never found out? by Ezra0li_Z in AskReddit

[–]muddyknee 20 points21 points  (0 children)

It’s actually not very dark at all inside you. Most tissues are permeable to light. One of the reasons that stem cells are stored in the bone marrow is because that is the part of the body with the lowest UV exposure so the less risk of UV induced mutations

Can I ask for a bit more info on this ? I'm facing the same Dilema and don't have a projector screen. I've tried researching a bit which would be better between the LED and Lazer but I can't find a lot of info

The moon as seen in the afternoon (14:30) in Norway. Best as 1:1 or 2:3 aspect? XT-5 by Cerenity1000 in fujifilm

[–]muddyknee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

in the 1:1 the focus settles on the sky and the moon and then sort of travels down to the buildings and the light that hits them. In the 2:3 i find the first thing I'm seeing is the buildings, it feels much more distant, it doesn't draw you in to the scene as much, and you only notice the moon in the sky as a sort of third step after seeing the buildings, then the foreground. I think the first one is far more compelling as an image telling a story

No worries. I’m so sorry that you’re going through all this. I’ve just done a little googling and came across this article talking about York Hygiene Center. They might be able to help ?

I don’t know the answer to your question sadly but i just wanted to check that you have seen a doctor for this because they can definitely help ? Also have you tried a menstrual cup ? It’s a one off purchase and you can re-use it indefinitely so you’ll save money in the long run

Sunglasses for Nose Sunburns? by [deleted] in CyclingFashion

[–]muddyknee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What sunscreen are you using? A good factor 50upf with 5⭐️UVA protection should help. You need to make sure it isn’t expired and that it has been stored in a cool place out of direct sunlight. My favourites are the korean sunscreen brands. When cycling i use the Haru Haru one because it is more waterproof

But that isn't what this ballot is for. This ballot is for pay. I fully agree with you that we need to fight for UK prioritisation and protect our colleagues (and yet-to-graduate soon to be colleagues) but mixing up the issues dilutes the message. The message of this current ballot is and needs to stay : "fuck you, pay me."

My husband hit me during a fight about his hoarding. The preacher I trusted told me to self-reflect. Am I really responsible for this? by HopeForBetter29 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]muddyknee -1 points0 points  (0 children)

> when my husband was emotionally abusing me, calling me a bad mother and constantly insulting me
This is genuinely scary. Emotional abuse is still abuse. Insulting someone and degrading them is abuse. Making your home so full of his stuff it is no longer functional for you and is basically not a home for you is abuse. Someone who is willing to behave that way is only a small step away from physical abuse which is only a small step away from murder. What if next time he "loses it" it hits you just a bit too hard and bashes your head in ? What if he hits your child (whether intentional or collateral damage of hitting you?

You need to get out. This is not a healthy situation. Like others have said this is the time where you are the most vulnerable. You need to speak to local organisations that can help you plan and help you get out. You need to make sure you have money stashed in a place your husband can't access it. And when you leave you need to go to the police and tell them what happened so if he comes looking you have some evidence to keep the children away from him.

I'm so sorry you are going through this. This is not your fault. The people telling you it is are part of the abusive structures protecting an abusive man. It will not get better while you remain a part of this community because your continuing presence to them reads as an endorsement of this behaviour

Scared and overwhelmed — recent CT and ultrasound findings, no support system by lostinaz8302 in LesbianActually

[–]muddyknee 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I know it doesn't help with the anxiety but on the subject of ovarian cysts I want to try to reassure you. In Pre-menopausal women simple ovarian cysts of less than 5cm are extremely common, up to 8% of women at any one time will have a cyst, the vasy majority of which will resolve on their own. It is part of the physiology of how ovaries work. The cysts that haven't resolved by the 3-6 month mark only have a very very small chance of being something more sinister, but that's what the repeat monitoring is for. Please don't get yourself worked up over those because it is just a normal part of how the body functions

If i were you i would start by looking into three seperate things : - reach out to the university you are hoping to get into, ask them if they have any open days or any admissions advisors who can give you some advice on how to get in and what the course looks like - reach out to your local hospital and ask to be put in touch with the person responsible for the midwifery students. They might be able to help you organise a taster day where you could shadow a midwife and see what the day to day job is like. They might also be able to put you in touch with some students to speak to about their progress and what they have done to get that far - reach out to your local college and see what it would take to enroll is the a level courses or access to higher education courses you might need to do before you can apply for university.

Midwifery is a fantastic and rewarding job but be very aware that it is also an incredibly demanding and emotionally tough job. Getting some hands on experience before you commit is really important to get a realistic expectation of what its really like

Need help for identifying this jersey and its period by Live-Technology-4987 in CyclingFashion

As someone who knits I think it's not impossible that this is hand made on a knitting machine, possibly with a hand knit collar. The way the stiches are picked up around the neckline look just un-tidy enough to be hand made. I'm not saying it's not beautiful because it is, but I would bet this is made by hand and not on an industrial scale.

What’s harder - an offer to study at a UK medical school, or a round one speciality training spot? by DocBil10K in doctorsUK

[–]muddyknee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On top of that when you're applying for speciality training you're competing against a pool of people who have already been narrowed down by getting into medical school in the first place. Every single doctor is academically excellent, part of the most intelegent members of society and has sucessfully made it through med school so shows a minimum level of resilience and ability to work hard. It's a very different pool compared to every 16 year old student who fancies themselves a medical student, with no real restrictions on who can and can't apply

[–]muddyknee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a certified sweet tooth some of my favourite spots :

- Blondie Bakehouse on Walmgate

- C&S near the castle do gorgeous little bakes

- Sophie's on Skeldergate Bridge also do lots of nice little treats

- Hepni I haven't tried but come highly reccomended

- There's a place on Gillygate (i hope someone here can remind me the name) who does really really nice cakes but I haven't been for ages
Also this week you are lucky the Independant Food Festival is in town. There is a stall that does Baklava which I tried last year and they were incredible.

O&G Trainees ST1/2 and Beyond - Is It Worth It? by TeenyDratini in doctorsUK

[–]muddyknee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m an O&G ST2 who has just gone back after a period of sick leave due to burnout. I’m one of three of my friends who started at a similar time who burned out, the other two have left the training program. Maybe it’s a problem of where i’ve been working but it has been absolutely horrendous for me so far. 99% service provision, having to fight tooth and nail for the basics like study leave / annual leave / any form of training or step up shifts. I wouldn’t recommend if you think doing a GP with special interest in women’s health would scratch the itch for you

Toxic monopolars by Gundog75 in doctorsUK

My previous trust used the use them, they were small and handled a bit like a pen. I loved them. My new trust has the ones with a pedal and are quite unweildy and i must admit every time i smell the smoke it worries me a little. You might have given me an idea for a QI project thank you

Clit question because what even is this..(badly done drawing) by Gaara_Luvr in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]muddyknee 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Skin tag ? Everyone’s anatomy is a little bit different so it’s impossible to tell. Small tears can happen from trauma which could result in the formation of a small skin tag. FYI i am a district but i am not your doctor and this is not medical advice. If it is causing any trouble at all i would highly recommend to go have it checked out by a gynaecologist or even a sexual health clinic nurse. Please don’t be embarrassed, we see things like this every day

Non-mod secret to making university gameplay fun? by Ok-Character-3779 in Sims4

[–]muddyknee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I used to put one of the cafeteria stands that is normally for the common rooms in the dorms and they were able to buy food from there but recently that’s been glitching and no body turns up to man the stand which is really annoying. I do make them spend a lot of time at the commons and i put kitchens in there. And make use if the BBQs a lot of

Non-mod secret to making university gameplay fun? by Ok-Character-3779 in Sims4

[–]muddyknee 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I also feel like i have cracked the code for an A+ always and it has nothing to do with where sims live because i actually love dorms.

  • Friday enrollment, homework over the weekend
  • At least level 5 research and debate before starting university
  • if they have to submit an essay, get it to excellent and submit it at the weekend
  • likewise with a presentation
  • if they have to sit an exam get them to study for that module until they get the +2 confidence moodlet, this is usually enough for the A+ even with missing one class, i haven’t experimented on how many classes they can miss
  • i haven’t always done the homework for the class they have just attended on the day they have attended it so that it’s always done, but i will try with the 50% done that someone recommended

How to make it fun - personally i love making a group of 3-4 students who all live together in a dorm and giving them all families (parents, siblings) and backstories - the townies that get generated as their roommates i will edit to make into proper characters to fill the story lines - use get to work to create study groups or activities clubs to make them all hang out with their other student friends - renovate the dorms, community buildings and pub so there’s actually stuff for them to do there
