    You know what I like about the Onion? The fact that you can make it through an entire article of theirs without seeing a single grammar or spelling mistake.

      I have not read an Onion article yet but I'm going to after reading your comment! The grammar errors in news articles are so frustrating. The mistakes are really bad too.

      It drives me crazy when legitimate and respectable sources have grammatical errors. If your business is publishing, have a good editor. If your job is writing, proofread your work.
      It's similar to commercials and ads that are so bad or annoying that I actually hate the product: If you want me to value what you're offering, convince me you know what you're doing.

      I started noticing the grammatical errors in newspapers 20 or so years ago. That’s when I also took notice that “feel” was being used when a thought was being expressed. That is so prominent now and it drives me nuts.

    • @Respectable_Username
      @Respectable_Username Před měsícem +6

      But if they pay copyeditors to catch the spelling and grammar errors, then that means slightly less money for the shareholders 🫠
      But on a more serious note, newspapers generally (at least in my country, but I assume it's a global phenomenon) have been struggling to earn enough money to stay afloat since the switch to digital and the steady decline in revenue per ad. They might legitimately have had to lay off the copyeditors to keep as many reporters on staff as possible.
      Which is another reason why I'm glad my country has a national broadcaster that pays journalists to report the news. I'm _very_ happy for my tax dollars to go towards paying for good, independent journalism, since there's such a struggle to stay afloat in the commercial journalism industry. Journalism _shouldn't_ be tied to a profit motive; it should be all about informing the public and shining a light on our institutions to keep them (slightly more) honest!

      I love that Dr. Mike brought up how there need to be more pain relief options for gyno visits. All of it hurts (at least for me). They do give some meds sometimes if you ask beforehand, but there needs to be some way to locally numb things if possible. After I had a copper IUD put in, I thought I was ok but then I stood up. Almost passed out. Had cramps for days; bad ones. We shouldn't have to feel that much pain for relatively simple and routine things like pap smears either. I dread every appointment, but I care about my health. It shouldn't be this way.

    The difference between a chrysalis and a cocoon is that:
    A chrysalis is the life stage of a butterfly when it transforms from a caterpillar to a butterfly.
    A cocoon is the silk casing of a moth that it spins around itself to protect its pupa stage.

    • @PanthereaLeonis
      @PanthereaLeonis Před měsícem +8

      They perform relatively similar purposes though, encasing and protecting the insect while it transforms into its adult stage. My way to tell them apart is that "chrysalis" sounds like "crystal", and is hard. The cocoon, being the other one, is soft and fluffy. Either way, unless you know what you're doing and you got a good reason to, don't touch either, just let them be.

      But the big difference is cost. So if your employer is going to provide you with equipment, you better expect it to be the cheap ass, bad for the environment, one use foam job. Bonus points if they provide one set per day, so you have to remove / store / replace them for each break. In fairness, some people have weird shaped ears, or work in hot / humid environments and earmuffs are not great for them. But I'd say 90% of use comes down to cost.

    @doctormike..... Got a nair story for you.
    I was on the high school swim team, and for conference championships we held a "shave down party" where both the mens and womens teams did their shavedowns before the big day. Typical swimming tradition. We had a male swimmer who was Persian and was VERY furry; we even called him "The Persian Rug". Rather than shaving, he said "f*** that, I'll be right back". He leaves the house that was hosting the party, goes to CVS, and gets several bottles of Nair. He then fills a bathrub half-full of wam water, dumps the bottles of Nair into the water, closes the door, and climbs in.
    The scream that was emitted from the bathroom a few moments later was nothing short of horror-film material. He bursts out of the bathroom, runs naked through the living room to the patio door, flings it open and jumps into the swimming pool in the backyard. The next day, he did the shaving, but the damage was done. He had red chemical burn splotches all over his body, and looked like a nightmare so much so that the opposing swimmers were visibly disturbed by his appearance when he would take off his parka and go up on the blocks for his events.
    We still give him grief about it to this day, nearly 25 years later.

    3:35 high blood cell count caused by smoking/high alt/steroids etc is not called polycythemia vera, instead its being called secondary polychythemia. Main polycythemia or polycythemia vera is usually treated as a blood cancer, caused by mutations in the bone marrow ( jak2), polycythemia vera is not cureable while seconadry can be cured most of the times by eliminating the cause. I feel like its a real important distinction since pv patients go through chemo alot of the time blood lettings and have other health problems including high risk to develop leukemia at more advance stages (or other mpn's)

    • @user-fn1cd6mo9z
      @user-fn1cd6mo9z Před měsícem +3

      Another important difference is secondary polycythemia doesn't have the same association with negative health outcomes. Read an interesting paper on secondary polycythemia in high altitude populations where there was NO increase in adverse cardiac events compared to the surrounding low altitude communities. Primary polycythemia changes more than just red blood cell count, it also affects the properties of the cells themselves which isn't the case for secondary polycythemia.

      Thank you for noting this. I was confused by Dr Mike statement as my dog had polycythemia vera at a senior age and the vets (multiple because it was a complex diagnosis) were puzzled as they said it normally occurs in young dogs, so they spent days at the animal hospital looking for the cause until they eliminated everything and declared it primary, even if very odd. Since regular blood letting was too risky and complicated at his age, I had to give him chemo for the rest of his days until the side effects were too much for him and he went across the rainbow bridge. He was the goodest boy. This disease is awful.

    About the chrysalis (3:00 +), when a catherpillar turns into one, it's whole body transforms into a gooey mass. Only realtively long into the metamorphosis process do all the cells re-assemble before the animal cracks the chrysalis and comes out as butterly (or moth).
    I really don't think that sounds particulary tempting...
    And yes, of course I know it's satire and I love it, but as an entom,ologist I just just can't help but think how the human in that chrysalis is going to melt like in a body horror movie....

      So "ear muffs are a thing, but the plugs simply are better at their job". I have had the same experience, that ear muffs just don't work as well. Ear muffs also look really dumb on concerts, compared to the subtle ear plugs, and if you move too violently, you will shake the muffs off of your head and hit your neighbor and spill his beer. They are, on the other hand, much quicker and easier to remove and reapply, you don't risk shoving your ear wax deep into your ear canal, and you can incorporate radios for entertainment or communication into ear muffs that you can't in ear plugs.
