I was looking up drug interactions for a friend only to find out for the fifth time (forgor) that we still don't know how Tylenol works. We have guesses! Very educated guesses! But the actual mechanism of action is a mystery. That's pretty fucked up I think. It feels wrong. We should know this by now!!!!!!

#t #magic is real and it is in how substances just do things to you #exhibit 1: Tylenol #exhibit 2: lithium #how do they work? we don't know. they just work.#anyway. Tylenol can be taken safely with opoids and nsaids. for anyone else who might need to know.#also the pharmacist confirmed my suspicion that if you're prescribed nsaids post op you should take them even if you're not in pain #because they're anti-inflammatory and that helps with wound healing #I've never needed to know because I've never had a surgery #but i Wondered #going to bed at 7pm now because I've had 4-5 hours of sleep for the last 5 days and i had to get up at 6 am today but woke up at 5:30 am #because a blister burst on my foot and the pain woke me before my alarm but i hate waking with my alarm because i always feel groggy #for like 2 hours after waking up and i prefer waking naturally even if i wake half an hour before my alarm after 4 hours of sleep #thank you foot blister. for hurting.#anyway. zzzzz.

The average cost for a blood transfusion per unit of blood in the US is around $200-$300

In my city larger dogs can donate blood to the dog blood bank, and for every unit of blood they donate they would get a free unit of blood should they ever need a blood transfusion in the future.

Do you think a system like this would encourage more people to donate blood?

I'm not entirely certain given how many people have the "It won't happen to me" mentality.

#my own recent need for blood products has been making me wonder #I've donated 13 times before they cut me off #because I didn't know what was causing my hand pain #and by the time I figured it out #and could donate again #I actually am in need of blood products #and likely won't ever be able to donate again #thankfully I'm Canadian and don't have to pay for any of it #but I wondered #if people in the US could considee the blood bank more like an actual bank #where they could “save” blood for a future date #and while they weren't using it #the bank would put it to use the way banks do with money #in the interim

Full names and details of every man who was convicted of raping Gisèle Pelicot. The list includes 50 men who could be identified, besides Gisèle's husband, ranging in age from 27 to 74. Among them are a firefighter, a journalist, a nurse, a construction worker, and a prison guard. Most have families of their own, and only about half had previous convictions.

#i haven't been blogging about this but also i haven't seen it anywhere on tumblr #so I wonder if people even know this case happened #current events #gisele pelicot #rape cw
