@savorpod Important Midwest pronunciation key: "ding ding man" is pronounced "din din man!"
Ok, probably just in Omaha :)
In rural Nebraska, we behaved like civilized, reasonable people and called it the ice cream truck.
@MyFavMurder Murders in Oklahoma! So, oil was found in Reservations and Indigenous People got money. So they were being killed. Please do this story! I read about it in Killers of the Flower Moon but I haven't finished so I still don't know whodunit.
We had chili and cinnamon rolls for lunch yesterday while glamping. We grew up with it in our school lunches here in Nebraska and it's one of those things you think is normal until college! (Or the internet). My cousins in southern South Dakota had it as well!
@DailyZeitgeist@BechdelCast@jamieloftusHELP When I was in second grade we bought sand art kits at ALCO. I made a beautiful piece of sand art in a small bottle. So beautiful, I decided to make a necklace by tying the bottle to a long piece of dental floss. I then decided to butt-scoot down the stairs...
@DailyZeitgeist@thecroftonshow Reactions to the show: bf started laughing so hard he had to put down his weights so he didn't collapse; I poked myself in the eye with mascara. Chris Crofton, keepin' us ugly.
@KennyMathieu_ @bastardspod@TheSofiya The potassium, phos and Mg come from the serum. The sudden loss of electrolytes from the serum messes the osmolarity, which messes cardiac and pulmonary function. Hopefully this helps!
@KennyMathieu_ @bastardspod@TheSofiya Sure. Normally when we fast short term, our livers produce glucose by breaking down protein from muscles. When we go a long time without eating, our bodies preserve muscle by using fat for energy (and making ketone bodies). This changes the entire biochemistry of the body.
@KennyMathieu_ @bastardspod@TheSofiya In starvation, when refeeding begins, our bodies use the newly provided glucose (from carb/protein containing meals) to try to rebuild nutrient stores. The increased blood sugar going into the cells increases the transport of potassium, magnesium, and phosphorus into the cells.
@furiositweets@bastardspod@TheSofiya Successful interventions tend to hire local skilled workers as upper management. For good examples, see Millions Saved from Center for Global Development. For shit shows, see the Red Cross in Haiti.
@bastardspod@TheSofiya Soldiers in WWII knew about the phenomenon, and it's not exactly a secret, but I wouldn't expect a high schooler with no life experience to know about it. This is why we need to eat the rich before they can start non-profits.
@bastardspod@TheSofiya Refeeding syndrome is something that occurs following the reintroduction of glucose into glucose deprived cells. Electrolytes and water rapidly shift back into cells, leaving serum low in Phos, Mg, & K+. This shift can cause cardiac arrest and pulm failure.
