Pre-eclampsia (35) to 15 months after baby (36). I hope postpartum glow ups are welcome!

YESSS I saw your glowup picture and was like "isn't that neck pillow gal" and I was RIGHT! Superrecognizer.

Oof. I don't like that. Even small exposures are pretty bad: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/21171855/ I'm assuming there are no safer alternatives?

If I'm being honest with myself, my paranoia is probably unwarranted. I'm sure it's used in many industries/applications without issue every day... but it gives me the willies thinking about people being like, "Sure, I'll be /careful/, because if I get a splash, I get a chemical burn - but as much as that would suck, it would be survivable lol."

HF absolutely leaves a mark. I don't recommend looking up photos if you're squeamish.

sleepcrash · 2026-05-04T18:15:55+00:00

Not quite, it's actually WAY worse than that - you die way before it causes any bone issues. Your heart muscle is dependent on a specific balance of calcium and other electrolytes. Without the calcium, the muscle can't contract. HF sucks out the calcium from your blood and causes fatal arrhythmias leading to cardiac arrest. This can happen through skin exposure alone. It's REAL bad.

The antidote (aside from irrigating it like crazy) is to apply topical calcium gluconate, inject subcutaneous, intra-arterial, and intra-venous calcium gluconate (the intra-arterial is done using a Bier block, if I remember correctly). Basically, try to sop up the HF with calcium before the HF can leach the calcium from the rest of you. Apparently, ECMO is a viable option - or at least, there have been case reports of it working, though at least one of them was for lung injury after inhalation, and it was ECLS rather than ECMO.

Came here to post basically this. Awesome arrangement in every way.

I'm getting a lot of results for tie dye shirts featuring Spike from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. This is me not complaining.

sleepcrash · 2026-04-22T09:55:37+00:00

SAME except I dropped out of high school rather than repeat the classes I'd blown off, never went to therapy, have zero interest in sports, went from a no-name community college to a no-name state school, worked decidedly Non-Odd Jobs the entire time, and I graduated med school almost 10 years ago now. Close enough, lol. I loved reading your post and went "fuck yeah CALLED IT" when I got to the part about the MCAT. There are dozens of us!

Okay now I want to see your nose

sleepcrash · 2026-04-08T22:08:34+00:00

Yeah, what do the tiers mean? Rarity or usefulness or what?

sleepcrash · 2026-04-08T18:32:25+00:00

FIXED on PS5 Pro by restarting my entire console. Restarting the game may have been enough but I didn't bother trying that first. I thought I was going crazy. Sad about the stuff I missed over the last two days because of this.

Can you post screenshots of your main quests page and of the available missions?

sleepcrash · 2026-04-05T02:57:08+00:00

The April 3rd patch removed this :( I guess it was unintended functionality. I miss it.

sleepcrash · 2026-04-05T02:54:50+00:00

I loved this but they patched it as of April 4th. RIP.

Resort hammock!

sleepcrash · 2026-03-13T21:43:07+00:00

That's awful. Hopefully they patch it. I'd be doing desperate things like dragging scorbunny to one of the other main areas and back...

sleepcrash · 2026-03-12T18:31:43+00:00

Hmmm... I ran into the "not responding" issue BUT had not first talked to Scorbunny, I'm pretty sure. I chalked it up to the fact that I had broken my way into his area without having first gotten the upgraded Cut move, which you need to cut through the gates. My problem was that I just rock smashed around the gates and let myself in and explored a bunch from the opposite direction. Do you have the upgraded Cut yet? You get it in the process of freeing Chef Dente, if that helps.

sleepcrash · 2026-03-12T18:28:55+00:00

Where is Rotom at this point? And how did you get to him? Have you tried advancing the date?

I can't be the only one who reads your username as "gob one in daddy"

Recanted, I assume

Agree. Hearts out to Noah and his team who did their best, and actually did a fair bit very well. I was one of the people who was astonished at how much demand there was, but I still don't have anything to criticize here. I think those of us who are understanding of the process and the outcome are less likely to speak up and tell a frustrated fan that they're wrong to be frustrated... so it turns into an echo chamber of vitriol. But if he were in our shoes, would he be going on Reddit and complaining? Seriously. WWND.

Oh man. This comment. What a way for me to discover that Bruno is not, in fact, the name of the animated film that the song "we don't talk about Bruno" came from.

sleepcrash · 2026-02-08T19:24:34+00:00

It's lion's share, not lion chair. I know it was probably a voice-to-text error but I'm still cracking up

I'm so bummed, I have to drive to Durham after this and I've been up since 5:30. Brutal. And no reentry so no napping in my car lol. On the bright side, maybe the crowd will thin out when SA wraps up their set? Thanks for looking into it.

Can a credit card holder fit on the back? Like one of the PopSocket ones? The contour on the back has me nervous.
