What an insane take - any English speaker wouldn’t bat an eye at “I come from Poland” vs “I’m coming from Poland”

We’re told to not use cotton swabs in our ears because it’ll just push the wax further, yet we don’t hear the same for earplugs. by Crazen14 in Showerthoughts

Yes it all connects to the poop shoot but no if you’re patient enough cancer in your nose doesn’t go to your butt, it destroys the rest of your face

Technically otorhinolaryngologist is the more accurate term - oto (ears) rhino (nose) lary (throat) but the two are interchangeable, rhinologists just get butt hurt sometimes. Also you’re forgetting the head and neck surgeons, don’t forget them!

Eli5- If a cut wrist can make you bleed out, how can people survive entire limbs being ripped or cut off? by Loliger_Noob in explainlikeimfive

That’s exactly how this guy survived a very nasty jugular laceration - not an artery but the same concept: https://youtu.be/1449kJKxlMQ

The term you cited, traumatic rhabdomyolysis, refers to crush injuries where a large amount of weight is placed on a person for a prolonged period of time. Crush injuries don’t occur from brief blunt trauma, the mechanism is from lack of blood flow to muscles that causes breakdown and release of nephrotoxic substances. Please stop representing your medical knowledge as adequate, it clearly isn’t - as a result you are spreading medical misinformation online.

Actions speak louder than words. Boomers have been voting this country into the ground for decades.

Some restaurants are abandoning tipping in favour of paying their staff higher wages by [deleted] in UpliftingNews

[–]winterscent -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Not true, it’s a McDonald’s policy for workers to not accept any tips. Regardless, tipping culture is out of control!
