drinking water is really good for you and helps you feel better but I cantt fucking figure out where does the water go when you drink it. it just leaves
huge biology nerd here: it actually goes into your stomach and then passes quickly through there to your small intestine where then the bloodstream absorbs it and eventually uses most of it and the extra gets pushed towards the kidneys and filtered through the macula densa cells and eventually you’re peeing it out.
so essentially the extra water actually goes into the bloodstream which gets put into the kidneys and the rest gets used up by your cells and muscles and organs and whatever else your body uses it for!
hope that helped out with a little explanation there :)
that is very helpful and good information to know thank you
holy shit can we be thankful that there are only like, 2 types of phone chargers nowadays? if youre phone died in 2007 you were fuck outta luck
this shit had to be a fuckin fire hazard or something i swear to goddd
they beat jesus with that
happy good friday
There’s actually a few things here that majorly dropped childhood mortality. In no particular order these include…
Vaccines (yay!)
Pasteurization
Implementing and enforcing food quality and sanitation standards. Did you know White Castle was called as such because their gimmic was that they continually cleaned and bleached their stores inside and out to prevent food poisoning.
The invention of antibiotics! The first sulfa drugs dropped in the 1930s-40s
Widespread access and distribution of enriched food products! Enriched flour did a lot to prevent malnutrition, and it’s how Wonderbread got its name!
We got a hell of a lot better with medical care for sick and premature infants. The first incubators for premature babies were actually used as something of a sideshow attraction at Coney Island! It was the only way the doctor who invented them could get funding to keep them running because no one thought it would work. It showed a lot of people that really premature babies could survive with the right treatment and eventually was adopted by hospitals.
The green revolution in agriculture that prevented around a billion people from starving to death
More recently it’s been widespread access to mosquito nets and medication to poorer and rural areas
this is GREAT two sentence horror actually
When the actual academic scholarly book makes the tumblr meme post a reality.
What are the odds?
speaking of hiccups, I've had an 100% success rate with the "I Am Not A Fish" cure
...
elaborate? please?
it's when you remind yourself you're not a fish
We are fish adapted to extreme conditions of dry land:
Skin reinforced with keratine (nails/hair/feathers are basically pure keratine) for decreased water loss. ⛱️
Muscular fins for movement, four of them (tetrapod = four-feet 🦍🦖🐢)
A neck - formed by losing gill bones, thus disconnecting shoulders from skull and improving manoeuvrability of forelimbs. 💪💀
And, and, and...
🫁 Lungs are overrated tho, they are ancestral to all bony fish - sharks/rays have no real bones; only cartilage and teeth are present 🦈🦷 - and some frogs lack 'em, instead breathing through skin (we also do that to a much lesser extent as oxygen can still be absorbed through lips, eyes and mouth... No, not enough to survive 🐸)
Now that the sharks were mentioned...
If shark is fish and goldfish is fish, then anything in between is fish... A goldfish is more closely related to genus Homo than a shark (U kno)... You belong to genus Homo... Congratulations Homo sapiens you fish now 🐡🍣!
Y'all are welcome for being enlightened 🤓
“They’re just looking for attention.”
Oh, a human being is seeking a social response? Human being, the social animal wired to make and track social connection? A human desires the vital blood that permitted their species to survive for millennia? The human being who was born completely helpless and primed in every way by nature to seek attention and help from their community?
Wow that’s crazy. How embarrassing. Humiliating even. Should we isolate them from community? Should we call Wire Mother?
my hips don't lie but they will exaggerate details, misrepresent the facts, and on occasion deceive via omission of crucial information
bae: babe did you go to the orgy?
me, levitating:
omg you people can do anything
