TIL anyone who's going to overwinter in Antarctica has to have had their appendix out. Because removing an appendix that's not causing any trouble just as a precaution is way better than having one that's about to burst when you're on the ass-end of the planet with no way to be rushed to a hospital if shit gets real.

[ironychan]

No, by the way, we absolutely did not think of this ahead of time. A dude named Leonid Rogozov got appendicitis in Antarctica. Fortunately, the expedition's doctor diagnosed him quickly and knew how to remove an appendix. Unfortunately, our man Leo was the expedition's doctor.

What did he do? Well, he set up a mirror, gave his belly a shot of novocaine, presumably told a colleague, "hold my vodka," and he removed his own fucking appendix. He survived.

yknow what im just leaving this whole tag thread out here

[donniehaspronouns]

“what if kids identify with something and it ends up just being a phase-?” good. stop teaching and expecting kids (and adults honestly) to formulate permanent traits and ideas of themselves. everything in life is a phase. that doesn’t make it any less legitimate while you experience it. let people explore themselves and know it’s okay if what you think about yourself changes.

[mywordstovictor]

I have a friend who identified as trans for a bit but doesn’t anymore. Verified cisgender. Gave it a good shot. Good for her. Stellar ally. Her dad being a dick about it still damaged their relationship. It doesn’t matter that the identity didn’t last. The memory of how he reacted does.

[mamawasatesttube]

the thing about media literacy is that understanding why the author chose to specify that the curtains are blue is the same skill set as understanding that the way the author characterizes all black characters as angry or all chinese characters as meek and silent is racist. it is the same skill set as being able to identify when a news source is biased or when someone is feeding you propaganda. the ability to ask "why did this person choose to present this premise in this specific way?" is a critical skill in a world full of misinformation. why are the curtains blue? maybe it's a characterization detail. maybe it's extraneous worldbuilding. why is this character written as being right all the time? maybe you're intended to disagree with them. maybe it doesn't matter. maybe you should still ask why.

sauropods and storms (re: tornadoes)

[last-haven]

#*squints at the climate needed to form a tornado*#do tornadoes...not exist on other continents?#wild I hadn't considered that before.#surely South America has them?#they have the same pacific in the west Atlantic in the east make up#Wikipedia has told me that tornadoes can and do happen in other places#just the vast majority of them happen here

The US gets so many (and so strong) ones because our geography is perfect for them--the Rockies in the west provides dry, cold air, the Gulf of Mexico provides wet, warm air from the south, and the plains are the breeding grounds where the forces of air will collide. You also get cold air punching down from the north, making the conditions volatile. With all the right conditions, they can happen anywhere, we're just the poor bastards that live in the perfect breeding grounds for tornadoes.

[fivedayslater]

I see, fascinating! Seems like we need the stars to align to make it happen, and they just happen to constantly all the time in the us midwest!

[last-haven]

Actually, we have THREE Tornado Alleys really--the Great Plains (aka the classic place for them), Dixie Alley (tornadoes tend to show up down south more in the late fall/early winter months), and the Ohio River Valley Alley. There's been a trend of stronger tornadoes that has moved eastward, so the later two are newer names, although I'm not sure how popular the Ohio River Valley one is.

Ok the US Attorney General says that she will remove ICE if MN drops all our sanctuary laws, complies with ICE, hands over all our SNAP, Medicaid and voter rolls. They demand control over our voter registration so they can "ensure free and fair elections".

They want to control our elections.
