From a surgical nurse and certified CPR teacher:
Please pause for 2 minutes and read this:
1. Let’s say it’s 7.25pm and you’re going home (alone of course) after an unusually hard day on the job.
2. You’re really tired, upset and frustrated.
3 Suddenly you start experiencing severe pain in your chest that starts to drag out into your arm and up in to your jaw. You are only about five km from the hospital nearest your home.
4. Unfortunately you don’t know if you’ll be able to make it that far.
5. You have been trained in CPR, but the guy who taught the course did not tell you how to perform it on yourself.
6. HOW TO SURVIVE A HEART ATTACK WHEN ALONE? Since many people are alone when they suffer a heart attack without help, the person whose heart is beating improperly and who begins to feel faint, has only about 10 seconds left before losing consciousness.
7. However, these victims can help themselves by coughing repeatedly and very vigorously. A deep breath should be taken before each cough, and the cough must be deep and prolonged, as when producing sputum from deep inside the chest. A breath and a cough must be repeated about every two seconds without let-up until help arrives, or until the heart is felt to be beating normally again.
8. Deep breaths get oxygen into the lungs and coughing movements squeeze the heart and keep the blood circulating. The squeezing pressure on the heart also helps it regain normal rhythm. In this way, heart attack victims can get to a hospital.
9. Tell as many other people as possible about this. It could save their lives!!
10. A cardiologist says If everyone who gets this mail kindly sends it to 10 people, you can bet that we’ll save at least one life.
11. Rather than sending jokes, please... contribute by forwarding this mail which can save a person’s life.
12. If this message comes around you... more than once… please don’t get irritated... You should instead, be happy that you have many friends who care about you & keeps reminding you how to deal with a Heart attack.
please take the time and boost this post by reposting it and sending it to those you love because we all need to understand how to quickly deal with heart attacks
I don't have have any of the social media that would let me get this to him directly.
Can someone tell Matt Mercer that Candela Obscura has been haunting my library for the last three weeks? I think he'd think it's funny.
Someone, somewhere, who somehow has access to our closed wifi has been printing a copy of the quick guide at least once every day or every couple of days.
We have sixteen, now.
There will be a lull, we're sure it's finally over, and then boom -
Candela Obscura
“you don’t like the proliferation of terms like Unalive outside of TikTok because you realize that you’re aging out of youth culture and it makes you uncomfortable!”
no I don’t like it because there’s something INCREDIBLY dystopian about being forced to soften terms for basic parts of the human experience like death and sex (and even more so terms for oppressed minorities- call me a “le-dollar sign-bian” and I will bite you) purely because advertisers and corporations demand it
So was anyone gonna tell me that the two most formative pieces of media of my childhood came out on the same day or was I just supposed to figure that out by myself
(Happy 10 years to both!)
this is a result of the recent animation purge trend and i hope people care considering how important craig of the creek is.
season 5 is being cut in half, and jessicas show (which hasnt even aired yet) is being cut in half as well. crew has been laid off. please read through crew tweets on the situation. im linking zeno robinsons (voice of omar) twitter here. you may also know him for playing hunter from the owl house.
Just watched Looney Tunes The Day The Earth Blew Up and I really really enjoyed it! Gorgeous animation and super silly in character gags all the way through.
Also I gotta make this important point: LOVE how many specific types of credits they had for people at the end. It was great seeing all these artists properly recognized! Go check it out if you have a theater near you, ESPECIALLY if you were someone like me who was upset about the Coyote vs Acme movie being canned. It's a miracle this film was able to make it to theaters this time with an indie distribution company picking up the rights from warner brothers.
Saw a post like this with negative outlook so I asked for it to be fixed
vegans make peace with honey
no shut up do it
I would say you could be somewhere better than here, but I don’t have much room to talk
