      I had X-ray’s when I was younger because I was born with my left hip smaller. I also have an X-ray of a stuffed pig that I still have because I didn’t want him to feel left out.

      yeah, every few months or so i get random chest pain that lasts for a few days, and makes breathing painful. The second and third times this happened, I went to the hospital to figure out a cause. Of course, all x-rays and blood tests returned nothing at all, and i was sent on my way with no improvements.

      There can't be THAT many, or else the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles would be setting them off all the time.

    just thought I'd add that history of yesterday do say that the sport match he was playing when he hurt his arm is golf. there appears to be a typo on the website as it says "gold championships", and then shows a picture of him playing golf, correctly captioned

    Please please please do an episode on Chernobyl!!! It’s been my hyper fixation the year and learning about it has been one of the most horrifyingly fascinating things ever. Especially the affects of high level radiation exposure on the human body

    At least in the US, you don't call up the university to verify a degree; FERPA (the Federal Education Records Protection Act) makes any unauthoirized disclosure illegal. The candidate pays the university to provide a sealed transcript, which will verify the degree.

    The thought experiment about baby Hitler has always sounded like a trick question to me, since it's based on genetic determinism, which is what Hitler himself believed. My answer is to save the baby and raise him right. Teach him to be an artist, and to see the beauty in all people.

    Reminds me of the 1986 version of "The Fly." Starts off feeling great with renewed sexual prowess, singing the praises of whatever they think is giving them this feeling. Notices something wrong when the teeth fall out, finds out his fate is sealed and by the end his jaw comes completely off.

    There is also something called radiation euphoria. This is what happens right after someone is exposed to large amounts of radiation and is usually followed by ARS. Idk if this would apply tho since it only started in small doses

    I have had so many x-rays: I got my hand stuck in a car so twice, fell over ice skating, needing to track my orthodontic work and then got into a severe motorbike accident. Best guess at least 20

    I worked as an "outsourcer" for a BUILDING company which had all their admins and middle managers (small company, we are talking about 5 women altogether, men employees did not have to fit any appearance criteria) look like sisters. Certain figure, long blond hair of a particular haircut, very feminine way of clothing, ... It was really bizarre.

    I worry that if it was possible to kill baby Hitler that someone else would do something equally as horrible or even worse. But I guess, it might be worth a shot.

    I've had multiple x-rays, other than dental I had one because I broke my ankle (and the family doctor told me to just wear tennis shoes, no wonder it's messed up to this day), and one time to find out that I had bone fragments just chilling around the tip of my finger after I accidentally hit it with a mallet (eventually I just clipped most of the nail off because it wasn't ready connected to anything, turns out nail beds are shiny and wrinkly)
