A time lapse of every nuclear explosion in history:

Yeah it’s because miles are meaningless when you’re encountering traffic along the way.
We have to pay for the services we use somehow. I’d rather it be cash than the details of my entire life. But the money to operate those services has to come from somewhere
Herd animals gonna herd animal ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
You have to wonder if we aren’t just confirming what the Great Filter is. There may not be any space faring civilizations.
“Women are specifically stating that the direct reason they’re choosing to delay pregnancy is the fall of Roe creating emergency health concerns.”
“I dunno, are you sure you can believe what women say? Did you check the “real” data?”
I’ve seen too many should-be-dead bodies dragged through years of medical torture after a crippling incident to be able to agree with that sentiment. There are worse things than death.
You don’t attempt CPR until you confirm that the person doesn’t have a pulse. The angle up on the edge of the pool and the way the kid was doing compressions were not doing anything. Trust me, I’ve seen and done effective chest compressions and that shit is HARD. A 12yo tapping on someone’s chest might be well-meaning, but it’s not CPR
God bless this kid, he deserves all the credit for pulling that guy out of the pool. That’s probably what saved the guy’s life.
However…
“Patients in previous studies have cited television as a large source of their belief that rates of survival after CPR vary between 19% and 75%, whereas actual rates of survival of CPR range from an average of 12% for out-of-hospital cardiac arrests to 24–40% for in-hospital arrests.”

YEP. Same. It’s always entertaining at work to watch a colleague who’s never heard my accent before hear me speak to a patient from Appalachia or the south
These women have valid fears of risking their careers by speaking up, but go off I guess
Yeah I’m absurdly good at not speaking in my native Appalachian accent, opting instead for a sort of “generic midwest.” Unless I’m tawking to ma day-ed-dy, n’ then all bets is awf."
My sister and I cover so well and so often that none of her four children who are literally being raised in Charleston, West Virginia has even a trace of our accent.
The irony that phenylephrine intravenous is actually effective at maintaining blood pressure in people who are trying real hard to die on ya. (Our ICU uses it sometimes.)

Preach. I hate the shit, it makes me feel shaky, but god damn does it work.
That’s a nice looking Nebelung you got there. They’re such beautiful cats
I just want one of those Hawaii-style text message warnings, so I can start driving toward Boston asap
If you’re lucky enough to be one of the minimal handful who actually die in the quick flash. More likely you’ll be one of the multitudes poisoned by radioactive fallout or starved by nuclear winter.
It’s not better.
They can buy themselves a few years at best without a functioning supply chain. We all depend on society, no matter how much they like to deny it
They think they do. No amount of money will protect a person from the collapse of a civilization. Never has, never will. Their plans are very much predicated on the assumption that markets will somehow magically continue to function after the general populace has lost all faith in them
There only being that one playbook is the exact reason why I have a patch on my backpack that reads: “Evil is boring”
