UK resident: pretty sure you can’t dictate to your employees what they do on non work time unless you pay them on call wages. Ie be here and wear this. I guess you could write it into the contract and see if someone signs it but I don’t think it would hold up.

I don’t remember where I saw these but the rest of these animal reviews are also great.

Maybe, you’d want to talk to someone like an intensive care doctor really but yeah a lot of your organs can be replaced mechanically these days at least for a while.

It really depends what you mean by survive.

You could do ECMO and dialysis and get rid of the heart, lungs and kidneys, parenteral nutrition to feed via an IV so no need for a gut.

The patient would be bed bound and at immediate risk of dying from a complication but in theory that’s basically an empty abdominal cavity connected to a brain and a bunch of machines.

You would need enough decent sized blood vessels left to connect it all up but otherwise not much physically.

A wet fart is a slightly more polite way to say shit yourself.

Basically if there is poo in your undies after a fart it was a wet day.

For me realising that I care for people (as a job) and if I don’t get it right my patients could get hurt means I’m much more likely to ask for help for anything from little simple things to bigger my mental health is suffering and I need more support from all aspects of my life.

Asking for help isn’t easy, everyone wants to be strong and self sufficient, remember we are a social species and evolved to work in groups and help each other. Think how you feel when you can help someone or if you’ve been asked to help and remember that when you seek help.

I message my wife when I get to work and when I’m leaving. So somewhere between an hour and 7 or 8 depending on exactly when in my day I get nabbed for her to notice.

My work colleagues would probably try to call me if I didn’t turn up (I’ve fallen off my bike before so they might suspect that) but I don’t think they would put out a police report immediately if I just didn’t turn up one morning.

Bohemian Rhapsody. Every time.

I have a rough idea of my outgoings each month as compared to my income and I just make sure I don’t spend more than I earn at least most of the time.

My wife occasionally sits down and does a proper budget so we can move around recurring payments and make sure we keep things fair.

It’s a lot better than other electric toothbrushes whilst retaining waterproofing.

Yup, you need to send it back to them but for a few quid (or included if you have their replacement head subscription) they will change the battery for you.

We have recently gotten ourselves some SURI toothbrushes and they are eco friendly, repairable, the heads are recyclable/ biodegradable. They also give a better clean than my old oral b electric. Quieter too. Highly recommend.
