Yeah I know. Can’t regulate sweating at that point and the body will start to frog boil. Hydrate was just a term drill sergeants would tell us when it was hot as hell. Someone military probably understood the reference.
Couple things because I’ve delved into this myself a good bit — especially having what I view as a close call doing water-sports at a very warm lake that has a history of deaths from this very thing (cue a week’s worth of paranoia…)
Despite it being “always fatal,” we don’t really know how often it’s encountered and that our immune-system is able to get rid of it. (Nobody voluntarily gets it; nobody goes to the ER that isn’t sick for the very specific symptoms it presents as).
It has to get very far up your nose and is usually from kicked-up sediment.
Regarding Nasal Irrigation/Neti pot Risk: be sure to use distilled water. Also some bonus information I’ve written up previously regarding the benefits of nasal irrigation:
If not using it regularly, consider using the nasal-irrigation immediately after being in a “high-risk” environment such as an indoor area with many people tightly packed and at risk of being sick. It will flush your initial viral load and improve your odds of purging the infection before it starts.
Here’s a chilling glimpse of the future: children educated in different states learn entirely different and often opposing ideas of ethics based on where they live. Those children grow into adults, and the cultural divide in this country is deepened even more. War breaks out.
Ya right? I was gonna say I’m from Lousiana and that shits already happening man. The difference in education between the south and a place like Cali is insane
That has already been the case for decades. Many students educated in the deep south learned about “the war of northern aggression.” Texas had a brief period where science text books were required to have information on “intelligent design theory” (a religious idea, not an actual scientific theory).
Considering many cousinfucker school districts all across the US are trying to abolish social and cultural learning and all access to political science. I’d say a governor taking a stand and making it clear anti-education curriculums won’t be tolerated, is a pretty big deal.
This shit isn’t being brewed up by the people in rural school districts, whom you so rudely slur as “cousinfuckers”.
It’s being brewed up by frat boys in right-wing think tanks — if we want a sexual slur, they’re not cousinfuckers; they’re Kavanaugh-style rapists — and sold to big, rich states like Texas and Florida first.
The ignorance isn’t organic. It’s manufactured deliberately, by people who did go to college.
Yeah the cousinfuckers didn’t give a shit that long ago. It’s rich educated people paying Harvard educated lawyers to sow divisions lest we all realize that the rich sold our present for money.
I don’t know what you’re basing this on. I’ve worked at rural school districts and they get Fox news just as easily as any Frat-bro. And they are more likely to be able to storm school boards.
The people you are referring to are the cannon fodder. They have been deprived of education for generations and have grown increasingly insular, priming them to become tools of a propaganda campaign with the insideous message “you’ve been lied to your whole life…” (which isn’t wrong) “…so demand to be put back on top…” (as if these people were ever on top ) “…or burn it all to the ground.” Same logic as ISIS. They’ve been adopted into a death cult.
I don’t know if it was planned this way long ago but it’s a pretty obvious outcome in retrospect.
