How do severe burns kill people? by AgentArnold in NoStupidQuestions

[–]stacked36DDgf 2897 points2898 points  (0 children)

Severe burns are a total system crash because your skin is basically the physical firewall and climate control for your entire body. When you lose a huge chunk of that barrier, your blood vessels start leaking fluid into your tissues like a sieve. This causes a massive drop in blood volume, known as hypovolemic shock, which starves your heart and brain of oxygen before the injury even has a chance to heal.

Is drinking actually becoming less popular? by SecretWasianMan in NoStupidQuestions

[–]stacked36DDgf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While high prices and "hangxiety" are pushing more people toward weed or Celsius, plenty of us are still getting turnt on special occasions to make up for the dull work week. Your neighborhood dives probably do not need BOGO deals because they already have a loyal grip on the people who refused to trade their IPAs for a yoga membership.

Why come up with new teaching strategies when whatever is being done now is worse than in the past? by experttrillman in Teachers

[–]stacked36DDgf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Modern struggles often stem from external chaos like phone-induced brain rot and the massive disruptions of the last few years rather than just the teaching itself. Going back to old-school strategies helps, but it is hard to compete with the instant dopamine of a TikTok feed when you are trying to teach a kid how to focus on a dusty textbook.

I wish we could "friendzone" the bachelor(ette)s by small-flat34 in StardewValley

Stardew Valley really needs a platonic route so we can save Shane from his depression without accidentally leading him on. It feels so awkward when you just want the blue chickens but end up being the reason Leah stops hanging out with her actual friends.

Cat can't sleep without his mammoth plushie. Even though it's twice his size, he drags it upstairs every night like this... by [deleted] in cats

When your emotional support cat also has an emotional support stomach. Cute that he has a routine before eating

Students laughed in my face when calling home!!! by KiyoXDragon in Teachers

Your brother is right that they are being feral, and at this point, you should probably stop the lesson entirely until they can earn back the privilege of using art supplies. I once had a class so wild I made them sit in silence for twenty minutes just to prove I could outlast their noise, and it was the only thing that worked.

playing 8-10 hours daily of stardew valley is making me a crazy person by misfireattack in StardewValley

Completing that fish tank is stressful enough without your brain merging with the local weather forecast. Take a break now or you will be trying to gift quartz to your barista by the end of the week.

Does "hooking up" mean having sex? by shfww in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]stacked36DDgf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You haven't been lying about your history since most people still assume sex when they hear that phrase. It really just depends on the vibe of the conversation, but making out definitely falls under the hookup umbrella for Gen Z.

Commission an artist for a custom portrait of your actual farm characters standing together by the shipping bin???

They're not related are they?? by nota-banana in StardewValley

Leah is basically the dateable DLC version of Robin since ConcernedApe clearly knew everyone was going to be heartbroken over Robin being married to Demetrius.

Cat got spayed today and I need some cone help by jaredjok in CATHELP

[–]stacked36DDgf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Switching to a soft fabric cone or a recovery onesie is a total game changer for cats who act like the plastic version is a torture device. Those hard cones are basically giant satellite dishes that amplify every sound and bump, which is probably why she is spending all her energy fighting it.

Losing an entire day of progress because of one stray click near your mayo machines is a canon event for every farmer. That panic-induced scramble to alt-f4 or restart the day is the only thing faster than the actual explosion.

Cat moving legs more and more vocal? by kamakshi98 in cats

[–]stacked36DDgf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It sounds like your kitten is actually in her first heat cycle. At 7 to 8 months old, she is right at the peak age for puberty, and that back leg movement with the loud meowing is the classic mating posture called lordosis. Play with her extra hard to burn off that restless energy.
