“He’s a 57 year old fuckwit. He shot – he is – he shot three people at an abortion clinic, ‘cause he was pro life. How can you be pro life and shoot someone?” – Russell Howard on the man who attacked an abortion clinic in Colorado. [x]

You can also cheat soaking your feet by plugging your tub and letting them “soak” while you shower.

Hydrogen peroxide removes blood stains. Use this information as you see fit.

Used green tea bags that have been chilled remove undereye puffiness. Also, keep a metal spoon in the freezer. If you have trouble keeping your eyes open one morning/are hungover/very puffy, pressing it under your eyes for a couple seconds will brighten and refresh your eyes.

Sleep with cotton gloves on. It’ll keep your hands soft. This is especially useful if you live in a dry/cold region or work with your hands a lot. I personally use bag balm instead of lotion for this purpose.

Equal parts apple cider vinegar and water will help with foot odor. Add baking soda and it will help with scrubbing off dead skin.

If your face gets oily easily, wrap a fresh towel around your pillow for a few nights to prevent breakouts.

Stomach cramps? Candied ginger, ginger ale, or ginger tea.

Depression

Depression is crying in your bed at 5 pm on a Tuesday.

Depression is not having the mental or physical energy to eat even though all you’ve had today is a cup of black coffee.

Depression is driving to work and fighting with everything you have in order to not swerve into a tree.

Depression is letting go of every emotion because all you can manage to feel anymore is the void inside your stomach that just seems to get bigger and bigger.

Depression is having 23 good days in a row and then waking up one morning fighting the urge to swallow every pill you have.

Depression is looking at someone you love and suddenly feeling nothing.

Depression is the black that sits inside your pupils.

Depression is your cold hands when everything else seems to be warm.

Depression is void of anything and everything.

These dudes are fucking legit.  They don’t just show up one day in court, either, they actually make friends with the kids and let them know they have a support system and that there are people in the world who care about them and will always have their back.  And less important, but also cool, is that the few times a couple of them have come into my cafe, they’ve been super friendly and polite and when I told one of the guys that I noticed his Bikers Against Child Abuse patch and wanted him to know how awesome I thought he was because of it, he got kind of shy and blushed and said, “The kids are the awesome ones, we just let them know they’re allowed to be brave.”

The source is long, but so, so good. These men and women are available in 36 states, 24 hours a day to stand guard at home, in court, at school, even if the child has a nightmare. Many of them are survivors of childhood abuse as well, and know what it’s like to feel scared and alone.

In court that day, the judge asked the boy, “Are you afraid?” No, the boy said.

Pipes says the judge seemed surprised, and asked, “Why not?”

The boy glanced at Pipes and the other bikers sitting in the front row, two more standing on each side of the courtroom door, and told the judge, “Because my friends are scarier than he is.”

Bikers Against Child Abuse was founded in 1995 by a Native American child psychologist whose ride name is Chief, when he came across a young boy who had been subjected to extreme abuse and was too afraid to leave his house. He called the boy to reach out to him, but the only thing that seemed to interest the child was Chief’s bike. Soon, some 20 bikers went to the boy’s neighborhood and were able to draw him out of his house for the first time in weeks.

Chief’s thesis was that a child who has been abused by an adult can benefit psychologically from the presence of even more intimidating adults that they know are on their side. “When we tell a child they don’t have to be afraid, they believe us,” Arizona biker Pipes told azcentral.com. “When we tell them we will be there for them, they believe us.”

The fact that a native man started this brings tears to my eyes…

So my actual GP is about as much use as a chocolate fireguard. So I have had to resort to going to the goddamn UNI for councelling. Pretty sure a councellor can’t help me with what I need help for. CBT didn’t. Meds didn’t. Recently transpired that I have pretty much been dealt the worst of childhood hands. It explains why I am a complete  and utter fuckup. It explains why I am a failure at everything I try. Destined to a life of shitty dead end jobs because I can’t even stick it out at uni. fucking deferral. I doubt I’ll go back. I can’t even stick to going to burlesque classes that I fucking LOVE going to, let alone going back to finish a fucking degree.

The list of shit that got dealt to me at an early age would likely have caused some people to kill themselves. Believe me, I have tried multiple times. Including very recently. But the icing on the cake is realiing that my own fucking MOTHER made me believe I was a liar for over 20 fucking years. What the actual FUCK is that about?

I’m almost done with EMT school, and I can verify this 100%. We don’t give a shit what you’ve taken or how illegal it may be. We want to know what and how much so we can save your ass. Unless its directly related to a crime scene in some way, we don’t tell. 

[amaditalks]

It makes me enraged and also deeply saddened that the police state has become so entwined with every aspect of our lives that people are afraid to tell the truth to people trying to render them with emergency care. We’ve broken ourselves.

[annieskywalker]

Boost because everyone should know!!!

[black-creole-queen-deactivated2]

My uncle was an EMT and I can verify this is true.

[chrissyirish13]

It’s a hundred percent true the only time police will be involved Is if you have endangered the lives of another adult or child. Until that happens you will not get in trouble, your life means more to a doctor than the mistakes you made to put yourself in that position

When I was 17 my appendix ruptured because I thought I was just having period cramps and didn’t go to the hospital so don’t tell me PMS symptoms are no big deal

[lingering-spirit]

this actually happened to me during my math final and i didn’t think anything of it and when i was later admitted to the hospital my math prof was asking me ‘you didn’t have to take the final! why didn’t you tell me it hurt?!?!’ and i told him i’ve had cramps worse.

he gave me 100

[kadenonio]

This is actually an extremely common occurrence simply because in sex ed they don’t teach you how to tell the difference between menstrual cramps and other more serious pains. The way to tell the difference between cramps and appendicitis is that while menstrual cramps are generalized toward the middle of the stomach below the belly button, pain from a swollen or burst appendix will start in the middle of the stomach and relocate to only the lower right side, even lower than menstrual cramps, and is a very localized pain. It also comes on extremely suddenly and will worsen over time or when you make a sudden movement, like a cough or a sneeze.

Basically, if you’re feeling any sort of pain, even if it’s menstrual cramps, don’t hesitate to tell the school nurse or a parent, or if you’re out of school and home even make a doctor’s appointment. Chances are if your cramps are that bad there’s something they can do to improve that as well.

[vandigo-deactivated20180131]

I am boosting the shit out of that reply, because I am twenty-fucking-five years old and did not know how to tell the two pains apart

[teacupdream]

Adding another diagnostic tool! This is something we use in the ER called the rebound test. Basically, appendicitis and cramps react differently to certain things. If you’re still not sure if you have cramps or appendicitis, take two fingers and press them into your abdomen where the pain is (try repeating this on the lower right quadrant of the abdomen just to be sure.)

When you press in firmly, it will probably hurt. Here’s the test: LET GO. Does it get better or get worse? Appendicitis will immediately hurt worse when you let go. Cramps will not. Go to the ER if the rebound test makes it worse!

[rainbowrowell]

THE REBOUND TEST IS REALLY IMPORTANT.

My husband got sent home from the ER with a rupturing appendix. When he came back and was rushed into surgery, the surgeon was super angry – “Why didn’t anyone do the rebound test?!”

[liberalbutnotpartisan]

It’s fucking pathetic that people have to rely on a website for information that should have been made available through school and our various medical outlets. I mean, honestly…

[spilled-my-grace-blog]

Another test you can do is to stand on your tiptoes and drop down quickly. If it hurts you need to go to the hospital or something bc that can mean appendicitis
