I learned back in high school from a friend out of boredom. Now it’s just a fidget thing. I don’t really go for speed. I just solve it if I’m bored

This is what I came to say but wasn’t smart enough to put into words. There’s a lot more factors than just being overweight of why a surgery can’t be performed. For a while an issue at my hospital was we were one of the few in the area that could do MRIs on larger patients. So bigger hospitals would transfer these patients to us just for an MRI because their MRI machine was too small or couldn’t handle the weight.
So if someones heart stops we don’t actually shock them. That’s a medical show myth. We shock them if they’re in something called a lethal rhythm. Which is the heart beating but not actually pumping blood. Very similar to the heart stopping and will eventually lead to the heart giving out. CPR keeps the blood flowing which keeps oxygen moving throughout the body preventing permanent damage. We give medications to restart the heart. They don’t really die until these interventions are stopped. Some people also have a pacemaker that detects their heart going into a lethal rhythm and will take over the electrical impulse until their heart goes back to normal. By the definition of the heart stopping this person would technically die and be brought back too. So I see what you’re saying but I wanted to add some context that this is pretty complex. Even more so when you bring in people deciding when they don’t want these interventions.
So we used a color system that’s mostly standardized. Code blue is respiratory or cardiac arrest, code red is fire, code gray is security, etc. we’re changing to plain language as that’s been shown to be best practice. Everything is still a code though. We’ve had code trauma, code stemi, code stroke. We also have rapid response for anything that doesn’t meet a code criteria but still needs assistance. My favorite was code brown for severe weather alert as that was our slang for cleaning a patient.
We use a lot to define being alive not just the heart. The heart stopping is just an easy way to pronounce someone dead. What you described is called a pause. Not really the same thing. Brain death is also a thing. Any organ transplant allows you to function when otherwise you wouldn’t be able to.

1·9 months agoThey still understood enough English to pass the test in the first place. I’m assuming with your first hand knowledge you knew that. Or are you just guessing there’s a lot of Spanish speaking people that got interpreters? This is about there already being a rule to speak English to get your license. It’s not about what language they primarily speak. This is just political theater to make magats happy. You’re just stuck on this “I have to be right or my online persona will be ruined”. Chill man. You don’t even sound smart online

10·9 months agoYou know what also happened in 2016? They revised the definition of “large truck” to include 329 more vehicles. By increasing the sample size you’re going to see more accidents. Common cause of accidents is fatigue from drivers working too many hours. That gets better if there’s less drivers and they have to know English though right?

12·10 months agoNo it wouldnt. He was here legally and deported illegally without due process. Unless he broke the law and they prove it nothing changes the picture. He could pour his milk before his cereal and stilk deserve due process.
Yeah its so hard only 36 other countries have done it. The evidence you provided was comparing 2 shooters. More evidence was provided that a majority of shooters in recent years(which is also a majority of shootings) are right wing. I showed you were wrong. This isn’t a bandwagon issue. Its common sense. Maga promotes violence. We’ve seen this on january 6th, the pardons issued, and with the illegal removal of undocumented immigrants. Maga also wants to “protect the kids” by attacking certain groups but their group is the biggest perpetrators of mass shootings. Which you refute against all evidence. If youre going to ignore evidence and continue to be this dense youre only going to continue this issue.

Read my comment. You’re talking about all time. Since maga movement there absolutely is political motivation. And if you’re not maga don’t defend them.
So the data i posted initially was from 1966 to 2019. Using that data this person would be correct. However they state that 20% of mass shootings have occurred in the last 5 years. The link i posted afterwards is a more recent analysis of mass shootings in that 5 year span where we can clearly see more right wing white males are the perpetrators. The bigger issue and what i addressed is that regardless of what excuse maga have they still ignore it. Even if you ignore that theyre the biggest perpetrators of this in recent years, they still haven’t done anything about the issues for the last 50+ years. They ignore mental health, gun laws, etc. Instead they ban drag book readings and deport against court orders. Yet kids arent dying from drag book readings. I do not agree with this person and they are very much wrong. Its not really a complicated issue. Expanding access to mental healthcare and placing reasonable gun laws would slash this drastically. But current maga admin are actively cutting mental health access and refuse to touch guns. A study i would like to see is if in recent years maga are suffering from more mental health disorders. It would make their projections of TDS make a lot more sense.
Studying recent mass shootings(which account for the majority of them) its only becoming more skewed towards right wing extremism
First of all you gave me 2 examples of shooters and expect that to be significant. Second I didn’t say mass shooters were all Maga. Again bending reality to be the persecuted party. Maga is just focused on the wrong things. Exemplified by the fact that mass shootings are typically depressed white males. Why is it that 90%+ are male and 50%+ are white? Why can we immediately have a legislature to ban reading books to kids from drag queens or deport without due process. But yet when it comes to mental health or gun control we have nothing. BeCaUsE tHe CoNsTiTuTion. You know what kills the most kids in america? Not cancer, not cars, not accidents. Guns. This one was done with his moms gun. How was that not properly locked away. I’m not the ignorant one. https://nij.ojp.gov/topics/articles/public-mass-shootings-database-amasses-details-half-century-us-mass-shootings Here’s an actual study.
Like all the posing with ICE? Or using drastically more expensive ways to deport only to have lower numbers? Or is it all about getting rid of people that “aren’t like me” illegally and unethically?
Bending reality to fit your cult views. Would love some sources or data to back that up. But you magats don’t give that.

This. When I worked night shift it was my 2am break. I’d go outside especially in the summer and it would be a perfect 70F. Dead quiet. Just super relaxing
