There are actually numeric codes to the Walmart prices iirc. It's not white supremacist nonsense or anything inherently political though. It was Something like ending in 66 cents means that's the last price cut vs 88 means there's like 1 or 2 more planned discounts or something.
I got enough upvotes that I think most people understood. I'm sorry you struggled with it.
Going to see this Sunday night actually. My partner really wants to see it.
That's also why I'm being so active in this comments section; I don't want people reading about compassionate euthenasia thinking "wait isn't that how they torture people to death?" because it's not unless you're basically trying to use it that way. I've actually been briefly trained on what to do in an inert gas leak in some of the radiology safety modules for work because some of the imaging machinery uses inert gas and they literally tell you it's super easy to accidentally die that way because by the time you've even noticed you're almost dead.
Precisely. Wonderful if you've got highly painful terminal cancer though!
They're not doing it correctly. The person needs to be cooperative and able to follow instructions, and they need to be using a specific type of mask that vents their breath with the carbon dioxide out.
They're not doing it correctly to be used as euthenasia. You need:
a) a person without COPD, chronic bronchitis, or any other disorder that has swapped their drive to breathe away from increased blood carbon dioxide / acidity and towards oxygen deficiency (fun fact, oxygen deficiency isn't what drives most people to breathe).
b) a cooperative person who can follow instructions to breathe out fully then take 2-3 full deep breaths
c) a nonrebreather mask which is a special mask with an outlet valve so that when they breathe out that air with all the carbon dioxide is vented while the nitrogen continues being pumped in. (Edit: This is if they're alone in a room or somewhere with excellent ventilation, or the nitrogen would be vented as well after a certain point and could harm the observers, that's why the sarcopod is a pod).
Sounds like they're fine on A, but not doing B or C.
Yeah if you're cooperative and able to breathe all the way out then deep breathe those first few breaths it's actually the ideal way to go. You do also have to not have COPD or chronic bronchitis or another disorder that's swapped your breathing drive to oxygen deficiency instead of carbon dioxide excess. The rising CO2 / blood acidity from re-breathing the same air you put out is actually what causes the anxiety / panic of suffocation for most otherwise healthy people, not the oxygen drop. So if they were using a nonrebreather mask and doing this as compassionate euthenasia for terminal illness for people able to cooperate it would actually be one of the better methods.
JFC "death by hurricane vs financial ruin" shouldn't be an internal debate.
Phallopenia, if you will.
I like that you mentioned we pick and choose who we remember and for what. Do you know why we don't read in elementary school about the person who discovered that the universe was mostly made of hydrogen? Her name was Cecilia Payne-Gaposchkin if you'd like to look her up and come up with any hypotheses as to why.
