I mean, a lot of things are survivable with treatment but near fatal without it lol

Yes but that’s such a transformation from being super duper fatal but not fatal anymore!

Hi my name’s CDO and I’M OBSESSED WITH A BACTERIA THAT KILLED HALF OF EUROPE

This sounds like it would be her tagline on a dating show

Do you like my “personal details”?

theres also a lot of preventable things that are near fatal without prevention. like measles.

Vaccines do nothing. What are you talking about.

It's not like we've eradicated a few diseases with them and almost eradicated others until people starting not vaccinating. Oh wait.

what are you talking about. vaccines DO things. like cause autism, even though that was disproven. which is far worse than dying a slow and painful death from a completely preventable disease. oh wait.

Sounds about right to me.

Bean, beans, the more you eat the more you fart
The more you fart, the better you feel
So eat your beans with EVERY meal!

You're missing a line! Beans beans they're good for your heart

No, no it's entirely wrong to start with! Clearly it supposed to go thusly:

Beans, beans, the magical fruit
The more you eat, the more you toot
The more you toot, the better you feel
etc etc.

But perhaps that's just the Canadian toned down vulgarity version

I know that one too it is just a pet peeve of mine to call a legume a fruit

Beans and legumes aren’t the same

Legumes do have fruit that grow in pods

Magical? I learned it as musical. Because of the beautiful butt music they cause.

This is not true. Beans are a type of legume along with peas and lentils.

 

[Caiter92]

This is not true. Beans are a type of legume along with peas and lentils.

But not all legumes are beans, and legumes do grow fruit. That as my point lol they’re not interchangeable technically

 

[SkiOtter]

Peanuts are legumes

 

[CoffeeQuestionMark]

But not all legumes are beans, and legumes do grow fruit. That as my point lol they’re not interchangeable technically

Ok I see what you're saying, but it's a technicality. Legume family, the seed in the pod is also defined as a legume, and none of these seeds are fruits.

 

[Skimble]

I knew something wasn't quite right.

Legume can refer to the whole plant, too

It can but in this construct that's not what it was meant as

I had a dream last night that I was a plague vet, and it was amazing.

I did not accidentally infect the country with Yersinia pestis, so uh, you’re welcome

But did you get to wear one of those old timey bird head masks??

 

[cdo96]

But did you get to wear one of those old timey bird head masks??

I wish.

Ugh I was so sad that plague wasn't on our list of infectious diseases for the presentations we do during transitions. I wanted to be a plague doctor!

They look like they have so much fun!!!

I accidentally made my professor laugh when we were talking about plague because she was telling us that they used to stuff the "beak" full of like oil-soaked rags, but because they didn't have an understanding of the transmission, the doctors were still getting infected. I leaned over to my friend and whispered "wait so you're saying that oils DON'T prevent bacteria? gasp" and my professor heard and chuckled

 

[CoffeeQuestionMark]

So I ate leftover mujadara for lunch @vetmedhead and now I'm farting. Lentils also do it.

I know nothing about Arabic food. Is that something you can find pretty commonly at a middle eastern restaurant? It sounds really good.
Not so much the farting but I’ll take that too I guess

Clearly they were using the wrong oils

 

[WildZoo]

Pure, 100% organic coconut oil, anything else and you might as well be giving yourself antibiotics

If you are curious you should check out the cooking thread. A lot of us are vegetarian and therefore we post a lot of ethnic dishes because lentils, tofu, vegetables etc are so much more common in other cuisines than American.

I hear that's great for ear infections. Or, I would hear that if I could hear anything through all the coconut oil, yeast, and bacteria jammed into my ears.

Coconut oil makes a nice change of snack for the bacteria and yeast obviously! They prefer to eat that, and so that’s how the eat infectione going away

We see a lot of holistic clients at my practice and we always have proud owners coming in for their pets’ ear infections saying “we’ve tried coconut oil, tea tree oil, and switching to grain free. We can’t figure out what’s wrong.” While running the cytology in the back I always look at the doctor and whisper “we’ve tried nothing and we’re all out of ideas!”

When I was a kid I sobbed for a whole day when my dad told me that Steve Irwin died. My parents had no idea why that news made me so upset, but they certainly regretted telling me about it at the time
