Hehe they’re always running around and climbing everywhere so it’s kind of hard to take good pictures of them but their names are Ricotta and Raclette!

The cream one with regular ears is Ricotta and the brown one with dumbo ears is Raclette. They’re sisters and they’re super playful and sweet, the only naughty thing they do is pulling stuff inside their cage when I’m not looking. They stole an entire roll of toilet paper once!

Life hack: turn any boring old pair of jean shorts into fashionable distressed jean shorts overnight, without having to do any work and using only two tools you can get at your local pet store! You’ll need:

One pair of jean shorts

One rat

One rat

Realistic: Crushes beer cans against his head like the manly man he is

While it may not be realistic it is hilarious: Had a fight with Krupp between races and got his ass beat 😔

Heart-crushing and awful, but fun to inflict on friends: After being thoroughly humbled after the race his past behavior really starts to haunt him. Wants to apologize to the people he hurt but has no idea how.

Unrealistic, but I will disregard canon about it because I reject canon reality and substitute my own: DEFINITELY had something going on with Electra 👀

I wanna hear more about the horse trains

Horse trains, aka stex centaur AU is an AU me and Neah have been cooking up. It started out as just figuring out horse breeds and colors for most characters (well, it truly started with the "Elec(k)tra is a horse" joke). Then, they turned into centaurs. And then it turned into GL, because every AU we have is GL.

Overall, the centaur AU is a lot less developed than the bird AU, but I still plan on drawing more horses one of these days...

Oscar, The Cat that Predicts Death

Oscar has been working at Steere House Nursing and Rehabilitation Centerin Providence, RI for the past decade or so. In 2005 Oscar was brought to Steere House to serve as a therapy cat in hopes that he would help cheer up the residents at Steere. He was descirbed as generally aloof and “not a cat that’s friendly to people”, sometimes hissing at people when he wanted to be left alone. 

He generally kept to himself and would often be found hiding under beds or in the storage closet, except when someone was close to death.

After about 6 months of Oscar being at Steere, the staff noticed that Oscar would choose to cuddle up/nap next to residents who died just hours after his visit. 

Joan Teno, a physician at Steere House, clarified that “it’s not that the cat is consistently there first. But the cat always does manage to make an appearance, and it always seems to be in the last two hours.“ 

 After Oscar accurately predicted 25 deaths, staff started calling family members of residents as soon as they discovered him sleeping next to someone in order to notify them and give them an opportunity to say goodbye before the impending death.  As of 2015, it was noted that Oscar had predicted over 100 deaths.

Oscar is so good at what he does that Dr. David Dosa, a health researcher at Brown University and a geriatrician working with patients at the Steere House, actually wrote an entire book( Making Rounds with Oscar: The Extraordinary Gift of an Ordinary Cat )about it.

While there is no concrete explanation as to how Oscar predicts these deaths, one theory is that Oscar is picking up on the lack of movement in such patients or that he can smell biochemicals released by dying cells.

@crisp-kuhrisp … because masks don’t block the Corona virus. Indoors, the virus is still making it out into the environment unless you’re wearing a properly fitted N95 or better (e.g. contained breathing apparatus). Why? Because the virus is smaller than the holes in the “masks” that they let people wear.

Doctors wear surgical masks for surgery because

Surgeons and nurses performing clean surgery wear disposable face masks. The purpose of face masks is thought to be two-fold: to prevent the passage of germs from the surgeon's nose and mouth into the patient's wound and to protect the surgeon's face from sprays and splashes from the patient

Now, that’s the official reason. But there’s evidence that the masks really aren’t effective for surgery either. In the UK, Lipp A and Edwards P. Performed a Cochrane database review and looked at a number of studies which involved surgical outcomes and the use of masks or no masks. The Cochrane study found,

Statistical analysis of the extracted data revealed no statistically significant association between mask usage and the incidence of surgical site infection. The study concluded that ‘it is unclear whether the wearing of surgical facemasks by members of the surgical team has any impact on surgical wound infection rates for patients undergoing clean surgery’.

(In Unmasking the surgeons: the evidence base behind the use of facemasks in surgery by Charlie Da Zhou, Pamela Sivathondan, and Ashok Handa)

Zhou, Sivathondan and Handa’s article doesn’t fully agree with the Cochrane review by Lipp and Edwards, it also looks at data from others lurches. However, the authors state in their conclusion,

Given that there is no evidence that they cause any harm either, proponents would rather err on the side of caution and encourage their continued use, stressing that there is no room for complacency when it comes to ensuring patient safety.25 This opinion is similarly echoed by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence guidelines which assert that mask usage contributes towards ‘maintaining theatre discipline’.

Another unavoidable aspect of this debate is that of public perception. In the public psyche, facemasks have become so strongly associated with safe and proper surgical practice that their disposal could cause unnecessary patient distress. Indeed, the response on various medical forums following Mr Ahmed’s decision not to wear a mask during his broadcasted surgeries would reflect the prevalence of such a belief among the public.

So there is really a lack of evidence that surgical masks help. It’s just that they’ve become expected by the general population that a surgeon will wear one.

Other studies have echoed this finding. There is simply a lack of data that shows mask are actually effective. Hand washing with masks showed an increase in effectiveness in at least one study, but that result wasn’t clear if the mask contributed.

Now, this rather surprised me, but his leads to the conclusion that, absent actually evidence, the use by surgeons for surgery has become an act of performance for the benefit of the patient rather than because there is an actual, quantifiable benefit to either medical personnel or patient.
