Yo, anyone got stress management tips? I ask because I have quite a few needles in the red over her. Like, not all of the needles are in the red. But it's the most I've ever seen. So I should probably address this.

So I should probably address this. Look into mindfulness exercises or yoga breathing, it helps trick your body into relaxing. There's a video thing on Netflix that's a quick and easy way to see what it's like. https://youtu.be/H77PL7SlI1M

Ooh, hypoxia chat! I get to link my favorite hypoxia video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XGdYb2J6Wbk The setup: ATC gets a radio call from a pilot who, as it turns out, has lost pressure in his cockpit. He doesn't have a mask on. He's at an altitude where it didn't just flat out kill him, but his brain is pudding. All the alarms are going off in his cockpit and he doesn't realize it. He's saying things like "cannot control speed, cannot control altitude, cannot control heading, but otherwise A-okay" and doesn't realize that's an issue. ATC desperately tries to talk him down to an altitude where his brain will stop dying. Ending: He makes it. You're not going to listen to some dude die. They get him to drop a couple thousand feet and he instantly recovers. People with ridiculously low O2 sats can be terrifying. If that dude in the 20s drove himself to the hospital... my god. kazmeyer fucked around with this message at 04:54 on Aug 23, 2021 |

I've been hypoxic twice, once in a training environment so I could learn what your brain does when it's suffocating. the other time I was actually sippin some thin rear end air at ~12,000 feet or so. It's really really hard to notice if you aren't using every brain cell to figure it out and super scary.

rabble rabble posted:box breathing Two excellent pieces of advice. I was worried about things until I accepted that everything is terminally stupid. Now I just enjoy looking at hummingbirds when they come by and do the needful not to get fired. Earlier was idly recalling my neighbor the nurse who was happy to stand across the street and yell about hating trim until late jan 21 when she tried to charge across unmasked to show me her new puppy. Was shocked I wanted to keep distance between us. Haven’t seen her in over a month. Hope she’s OK.

Loucks posted:Skipping eleven pages and maybe there’s a good argument against it, but I think this is a rare reasonable use of the military where people should have a choice between a vaccination and a round of 5.56 to the brain. (Actually some sort of isolation instead of summary imexscution but maybe don’t tell them that up front.) TBH I envisioned the same thing: military rolls in and gives them two options, a jab in the arm or a trip to the slammer (or better yet house arrest with ankle monitor)

My school.is mandated mask except at lunch which will be outside. If it rains the lunches will be in the gym, 6 feet apart seating, assigned seats My kid is in K, so he's at a table of 4. If any are positive the table gets quarantined but not rest of the class. P.e. and recess outside unless raining, in which case it's done in classroom This is better than I had hoped. They aren't pulling bullshit games about spacing things out 3.01 feet and whatnot, just relying on good weather and doing their best otherwise. Combined with best in state vaccinations and weekly entire school saliva test I'm feeling like the rest of the state will close down before us

If it rains the lunches will be in the gym, 6 feet apart seating, assigned seats I would feel better (a little) if our school system gave us any such detailed plan for lunch, but right now it's "yeah they have to wear masks unless it's a strenuous athletic activity or during lunch" which is pretty bonkers compared to how "good" it was last year. I'm in a centrist utopia county, though. During presidential elections it's "mildly pink" because of the rich assholes ("small business owners" and govt workers/contractors) here

Obviously violence is extremely bad and has never accomplished anything so casually beheading every one of ultrawealthy would certainly be a terrible thing that couldn’t possibly improve matters.

indirect covid death but the collapsed hospital situation in florida is probably responsible for the death of our company president. went in feeling weak and died of cerebral bleeding a week later since nobody had time to figure out WTF and correct it. masked, vaxed, and survived covid early on and gets killed by the wave of people committing mass suicide in sacrifice to number i got so lucky i broke my leg in between covid waves lol, the hospitals weren't at the breaking point at the beginning of the year but i still was untreated for 48 hours

Meditation and beans. Could also try lsd.

trying to recall how perth handled the delta outbreak in late june by going through some old chat/posts. there was an overnight case on saturday and on sunday morning (27/06/2021) our premier announced restrictions to kick in at noon. keep in mind that our default level is no masks or anything. you just have to check in at venues. https://twitter.com/CaseyBriggs/status/1408984283792900098?s=20 quote:These restrictions include: restaurants were still open and you could de-mask to eat. 2 new cases were detected the next day (monday), who got it from the initial case at a gym through fleeting contact. iirc initial case was a physiotherapist that worked there.   4-day full lockdown got announced starting monday midnight.  -tuesday, +1 from local transmission. -wednesday: +1 (also from the gym) -thursday: +1 (was a partner of an earlier case so the 4-day lockdown ended as planned friday midnight):  the next 6 days had interim restrictions:  sunday 4th of july: +1 (already in quarrantine, so plans remained unchanged) the next 6 days had light restrictions until 12th of july. masks only needed indoors. restaurants allowed to reopen, standing service allowed at bars:  12th of july we went back to maskless life. our premier also announced a small business grant:  also did a little back patting: quote:Just under three weeks ago, Perth and Peel entered a short, sharp lockdown to stop the spread of COVID-19 in our community, after the Delta variant came across from New South Wales. i think luck was by far the biggest factor in our success. but also, consistent messaging about "short, sharp lockdowns" and seeing how other places went with half-arsing it has made the premier beloved for keeping us in at normal standard of living, able to suck and gently caress to our heart's content most of the time. this means people are pretty diligent about following directives like checking-in, getting tested, quarrantining and masking. i'm guessing that initial delta case in NZ infected a lot more than a handful of people based on the massive +10 jump the next day. have those cases been traced yet?

Why doesn't anyone seem to comprehend that none of the other pandemic hygiene measures make a poo poo's bit of difference if people are still allowed to take their masks off in large groups indoors (and with delta probably outdoors) and shovel poo poo into their faces? We had a company picnic, socially distanced and masked, and then everyone sat down and started eating together at the loving tables. Nothing else matters if you permit people to do this ffs
