  • I’m late, game recommendations are covered, but I can give you advice for healing your thumb. I’ve had the tips of my thumb and a finger glued back on as well as stitches on my fingers several times.

    Blood flow to the tip is important. Squeezing a stress ball or something helps. It’ll also keep the skin from healing too… tightly? If that makes sense.

    Keep it dry. If you need to bandage it, do it loosely and change it often. Cotton balls work really well to keep it dry as well as protect it from accidental impacts.

    If the doctor didn’t do a good job, trim the stitches so they don’t catch on anything. If you’re in America, take the stitches out yourself after 10-14 days or as soon as you can wiggle them freely. Nail clippers work really well to cut the stitch and pull it out.

    If you rip a stitch, you can use a careful dab of super glue to close it. Just make sure it’s clean and dry first.

    If you cut through the nail, it’ll grow back kinda fucked up. My nail healed in an M shape and dirt would get trapped in the middle so I put some Vaseline or something under it to keep it clean.

    Last but not least, you have a small window in which fingerprint evidence may be inadmissable in a court of law. Do with this information as you will.





  • What the fuck is that article? It’s absolute nonsense. Like a first gen AI was trained on a single biology textbook.

    The mosquito brain has three main parts: the antennae, the maxillary palps, and the proboscis.

    Octopuses don’t have any real social structure like mammals do. Instead, they communicate through chemical signals. But these chemicals can transmit emotions just as effectively as words and they have two eyes.

    Animals with multiple brains include octopuses, cephalopods (squid), and even humans.

    The brain of a cuttlefish is located in the head, which is made up of two parts: the upper part contains the eyes, and the lower part contains the mouth.

    Cuttlefish is one of the smartest animals in the world. They are able to solve complex mathematical equations







  • In the present Convention, genocide means any of the following acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group, as such:

    1. Killing members of the group;
    2. Causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group;
    3. Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part;
    4. Imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group;
    5. Forcibly transferring children of the group to another group.

    That’s directly from the UNs genocide convention.



  • Cocaine withdrawal isn’t that bad. It’s all mental. You might get anxious or depressed and cocaine will be the only thing you think about for a while, but that’s it.

    Benzo or alcohol withdrawals will actually kill you. Those need to be handled with medical assistance.

    Opioid withdrawal isn’t quite that dangerous, but it certainly will make you want to die.
