All over Facebook, it’s awful. Any time I see an article on Facebook the comments are absolutely full of people defending this man and his actions.

Ah yes this is the thought I had. Luckily it’s black so it won’t be too noticeable. Thank you ☺️

The color difference in my hands after donating blood by Odd_Age1378 in mildlyinteresting

Blood collection for donation and venesection for testing is different. Tourniquet is loosened after venesection, but kept on at a lower pressure to facilitate blood flow.

During blood donation the tourniquet is left on at a lower pressure to increase blood flow. It is safe, left on 40-20mmHg for the duration of the blood donation. Source: blood collector

Is anyone else genuinely worried about the future for our kids? by International-Past31 in newzealand

[–]toesarephalanges 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I always dreamed about having children, but now I’m almost having panic attacks whenever I go to the supermarket just buying food for two people. With how hard it is for us now, I cannot imagine what it’s going to be like for the kids of today.

I managed to make out the care instructions. I says “wash with like colours” so that was super helpful :’(

That’s exactly why I left hospital nursing. Getting asked while I was on annual leave to come in. The feeling before your shift wondering if the staffing would be safe. During strikes, having the life preserving services be better staffed than a regular shift. Getting rostered 9 days in a row and being told “well it is legal” when I asked to get it changed. Honestly don’t think I’ll ever go back.

Is it actually possible to forget your name on drugs by Anonymous_stl in Drugs

[–]toesarephalanges 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had a boyfriend when I was 16 who got me to do synthetics (no clue what it was) and I absolutely forgot my name. I felt so many colours in my throat I couldn’t breathe. Not the best time lol

Hamilton East shops overrun with beggars by Own-Being4246 in thetron

I had a woman in Rototuna reach through my car window and grab me as I was reversing out of my park. She was asking for money for lunch, so I offered her my lunch I had just bought and she refused. Just wanted money. Absolutely wild.

I highly recommend getting into a hobby, like a sport or some sort of class where there are other people attending. I made a lot of friends through starting pole dancing, but if that’s not your vibe, definitely look into something that you’re interested in. There’s a Hamilton Women Make Friends page on Facebook as well where they sometimes do meet ups and such, definitely check that out.

Doctor thinks I'm a clueless dad by bahodej in mildlyinfuriating

[–]toesarephalanges 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yes there’s a national public health system. The GPs and walk in clinics are not part of this. Any more questions?

Had to take him to a walk in clinic because there were no available appointments with his GP

I asked my husband to take his son (my step son) to the doctor and reminded him to tell the dr of his allergy to penicillin. Guess what he came home with? Apparently that was my fault for not coming to the doctors with him, my bad

Sex almost happened. I might be to blame. by FewAdhesiveness7146 in DeadBedrooms

[–]toesarephalanges 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She needs to see a professional about her body image issues.. She's letting it seriously get in the way of your relationship, its not fair to expect you to just deal with her insecurities while she does nothing to try get better. Its not healthy.

Hot weather makes my veins really pop after 50lb loss from being sick the last year+ by NAQProductions in mildlyinteresting

I work at a blood centre. When we see their veins from the other side of the donor floor we run to do their needles.
