it does not make you a bad person.
In fact it kind of made me a bit happy too, in a parental way "seeing their child f up, but then you child realises it, and they ar sad, but they also got a important lesson' either that or in a pity kind of way, in the sense that he is capable of feeling stuff, he desereved (partially) what he got (i do not condone arson, but boycots are welcome to me) but still, i have some kinda sense of "i should not laugh at someone else's pain"
if you are still up, I will make you mod, just reply
Should this news count as uplifting? Asking as a mod. I know the current poltics scenario, but this does not sound uplifting to me unless i am kinda sadistic.
Regardless of your blood type, it is useful. Thank you for donating.
Sorry for hijacking this comment.
In many places, especially with big hospitals (or universities, or some big establishment) - Most of them have some form of blood donation camps, especially around major holidays (often the national ones).
Please donate blood - you can safely do it 3-4 times a year, and be completely healthy (you can do once in roughly 90 days for males, and 110ish days for females, but please confirm this with your general physician). But even if half the people (even a tenth for some countries) do once per year, we will not have a blood crisis.
And you can always register for organ donation or organ matching/swapping (depending on jurisdiction) - after you are dead, or if you are terminally ill, but have some organs (for example - eyes, kidneys, liver, etc) which function normally, can be donated. Often this is as simple as getting a registeration done, and then just maintain a card with your health records. In case of death or otherwise, most hospitals will then arrange for grafting and storage of organs themselves, with little to no headache for patients family. And in many places, the organ donor is then given some kind of state honor. This also helps reduce organ trafficing, and abuse of poor people who sometimes have/forced to sell their organs.
I was once renting a room, where due to part my lack of cleanliness (basically not throwing out garbage frequently enough, i waited for a week or two) and my rooms window being right above a flower bed (and i kept the windows open for the most time) and my room being moist for the most time (i dried clothes in my room) I got lots of small red bugs (hundreds or thousands). they did not bite, but they were annoying. I had a few bad weeks, so i also did not care about them at the time.
To get rid of them, I had a multi part strategy, basically 1 was trying to physically force them out - by raising the room temp to high, and cycling window open and close, and also cleaning out my room better (taking garbage every 2 or 3 days), worked partially well (maybe more than half gone). Other was to use a chemical irritant (i used a mix of dettol and water) to spray on their usual spots, and llet them be dry otherwise, and stopped drying clothes inside. Once I got to getting rid of them, I got it in a week or so.
Also where i live currently, it is musquitos. They are everywhere where I live, kinda a public health issue which is largely outside our scope. I cant really do much against them. General advice is to keep surroundings clean and minimise their breeding spots. My folks do try to kill them with the zapping rackets, but that is almost lost cause.
my take away was never hating person in photo (that part was just in case we are hating the person in photo, but my second para in the original comment is what i got - old relegious person is rude to service worker). I have not experienced it, so i can not relate, sorry.
In our home we have "coolers" (the big kind with metal bodies and large water storage, and padded, perforforated walls). It is outside our house and blowing air inwards. We try our best to seal the area around window with lots of cardboard, fibre sheet and thermocol, and then depending on time of day, confining the space (by closing other doors in home). It is not AC cool, nor is it really effictive when it is hot (50+ C) outside, but other time it works fine. In the nights it does a pretty good job (good enough that i have caught a cold right now). When we do not want the noise, we just run the water pump, so occasional winds from outside come and are cooled by the running water. Water usage is slightly high (we usually require one filling a day, which would be 40-50 litre water i guess), but we sometimes keep cycling between pump on and off to conserve some more water. If noise is a big concern to you, you can try to basically cover whole of the front (with some sound insulating material, like fibre sheets(the polymer ones often found in packaging)) and then make some side channels for air. Or something more simple is using lighter curtains just in front of cooler. This will break the flow of air, but if you have sealed rest of the are, so air can't leak elsewhere, then you would get air breaking its flow and flow around the obstacles and reach you, but not as loud. We do something similar, we have not covered fully, we have left partially open (60 % i guess from the middle) but to cover noise, we partially close it by window (which is kept in place by curtain over it) so we get a tighter channel of air (as it bends around the edge of window). If you stay in the channel, you get large air flow, but more noise, but if you move away from it (from my casse, even by a foot) then the noise is cut in half. The rest of the room is now cooled by this air current mixing with rest of room air. If room is large, t=you may also have to turn your ceiling fan on for this, but we do not have to.
In really peak summers (and peak hours of the day), we use ac for few hours (1-1.5 or 2) and when it gets cooler outside, fall back to cooler.
can i not just express my non liking. I did not yell or abuse, so i don't know what i did to convey that i am not calm
yes
don't think much about it, just post where ever you want
