No but you’re a petty lying bastard; we both know that sample wasn’t clotted when I sent it!

I feel like boiling PLUS the Brita would be a pretty solid combo. Boil to kill everything then Brita to remove the remaining inert sediment. I can’t think of any metals or anything that there would be enough of in river water to hurt you after you’ve killed anything that was alive.

I mean I do think suicide should be legal but I also don’t think we should let people just do it without making them stop for a second and be evaluated to see if there’s any better options for them.

I was gonna say, women have been getting sick of men and turning into bog witches for centuries now, probably longer. The more socially acceptable version was nunneries for a while, since men need to feel like they’re in control of that some way or another.

(Assuming this is the same short story I read years ago) this is the only afterlife I’m willing to believe in. Either this or a combination of this and the gnostic afterlife where we’re all splittable and recombinable parts of one larger soul.
I forget why, but I strongly associate this concept with the time I passed out from dehydration at work for like 30 seconds and I remember was walking on a pebbled beach and talking to someone. Don’t remember who or what we talked about though.

Personally it’s the silkiness after a fresh wash that gives good mouthfeel, among other ways a good wash contributes to a positive experience. It’s also good to not have any cosmetic products on or directly around the penis or testicles, but the tiniest dab of scent up higher on the inguinal line, like up towards the hips, would be nice. Just not a lot, you want to get any offensive smells off with washing then just add back a little pleasant smell since the face is gonna be right up in there.

I used to think that until I found drop crotch jogger jeans. Loose up top but skinny through the calves and cuffed to stay out of the mud. If I get extra longs I can wear them up over my bellybutton and the crotch is just normal. I looked for and found them when I found myself fantasizing about living life in my jogger scrub pants (where usually mud is the least worrisome thing that could wind up on my pants hems). Also they make my hips look huge in comparison to my tiny ankles and top so I get to look like a Pixar mom.

I’m actually doing a readthrough now and there’s a LOT of different stuff, a lot of contradictory stuff, and a lot of dudes that have some serious incel level hangups (looking at you two, ezekiel and paul) but then there’s just some bits that absolutely go hard (like the whipping you mentioned, or the times the pharisees be saying stuff about how the religious laws are this or that and jesus goes oooooofffffff ✨🫰✨🫰✨🫰✨
but the two things that are actually super consistent are a) do not work on the sabbath b) rich people are fundamentally evil, both with various ways of being said and various punishments up to and including death
there are a few people described as generally successful but it’s usually more in terms of owning / leading a people as a clan / tribe than it is in terms of having money specifically. Like it’ll describe the number of servants in the household, their tents, the herds, etc.
The only person described positively who has “wealth” in the more modern sense is Solomon, and it’s explicitly stated that this was given to him because the one thing he asked god for before anything else was the wisdom to be a good leader, and that the wealth he had was a result of using that wisdom.

Oh I know why, but how the specific dosages (like, actual numbers) are actually chosen sounds like more of an art than a science.

…but also it’s not really helpful to me in patient care. I tend to find height and weight used separately more useful for patient care than the BMI and even then I don’t use them for much. The only time I really see a BMI that my brain does anything with is when it’s 40+ and at that point they’re almost certainly 300lb+ regardless of height and at that point the weight is still the most important piece of info I’m getting out of that section of the chart.
The caveat is that I’m not really doing too much with metabolism other than with my catatonia patients, and with them it’s much more about keeping weight on than anything else. You actually very rarely see an acute eating disorder in inpatient psychiatry (if it’s worth hospitalizing them, they need to be on a cardiac monitor and have somebody nearby who actually knows what’s in the crash cart).
Most of what I’m using the height and weight for is actually clothing / equipment sizes so I can have everything prepped for a new admission, and estimating how much literal weight is gonna get thrown around if they show up ready to fight. It’s also helpful to know if medical is dumping another supermorbidly obese patient on us (they almost have to have psych issues to get that big, but they also almost always need mobility aids we don’t have).

I need to know your location to know what grass is ecologically appropriate to grow there. Wouldn’t want you growing an invasive species.

3 or 54 exactly, and nothing in between. Also, you are taking all of this waaay too seriously. Go touch some grass.
