"I have pulled dead, mangled bodies from cars. I have lied to people as they were dying I said vou are going to be fine as I held their hand and watched the life fade out I have held dying babies. Bought Iunch for people who were mentally ill and haven't eaten in a while I have had people try to stab me. Fought with men trying to shoot me I've been attacked by women while I was arrestina their husband who had ust severelv beat them I have held towels on bullet wounds Done CPR when I knew it wouldn't help just to make family members feel better I have torn down doors, fought in drug houses. Chased fugitives through the woods. I have been in high-speed car chases Foot chases across an interstate during rush hour traffic I have been in crashes. Been squeezing the trigger about to kill a man when they came to their senses and stopped. Waded through large angry crowds by myself Drove like a madman to help a fellow officer. Let little kids who don't have much sit in my patrol car and pretend they are a cop for their birthday I have taken a lot of people to jail. Given manv breaks. Praved for people I don't even know. Yes, and at times I have been "violent" when I had to be. I have been kind when 1 could. I admit I have driven to some dark place and cried by myself when I was overwhelmed I have missed Christmas and other holidays more than I wanted to Every cop I know has done all these things and more for lousy pay, exhausting hours, and a short life expectancy We don't want your pity, I don't even ask for your respect. Just let us do our iobs without k*lling uS.

I hope I can create positive posts versus hateful rhetoric. I found myself falling into that trap where all we do is answer each other with argumentative posts trying to prove who is right or wrong. So for my first post I’d like to ask what people are looking forward to in the next five years? Something unrelated to current affairs! Like hopes and dreams!

If, ever you find a true friend, please tell them that you love them,so if anything happens to them, they will know that you love and appreciate them too…🥰🥰❤️🙏

PART ONE OF TWO The Faces of Grief If you have just suffered a major loss, you have probably begun the emotional roller coaster ride of feeling your own grief. Your grief—which descends on you as overwhelming feelings of loss—can reveal itself through several faces that can leave you suffering in any number of ways. Here are a few. Suffering a major loss can leave you with a broken heart. When you say you are heartbroken, you may be using a metaphor, but what you are experiencing is real suffering and grief. Heartbreak over a major loss causes excruciating pain. Overwhelming grief can make it hard to breathe. It can leave you physically and emotionally exhausted. Suffering a major loss can leave you struggling spiritually with a lot of unanswered questions. Major losses usually make no sense—the loss of a home caused by fire, natural disasters, the divorce between two people who once loved each other, the death of a loved one, or a global tragedy like the coronavirus pandemic of 2020 that brought financial disaster, uncertainty, and loss to so many. It all seems so cruel, wrong, and unfair. You may even question where God is during all this. That’s a natural response. Tragic losses tend to cause fear and shake one’s faith. Suffering a major loss can leave you feeling lost, alone, and incomplete. Grieving a deep loss can also shake you at the very core of your being. Suffering a loss, especially the loss of a loved one, can make you feel that a part of you has been torn away. It can seem like your loss has left a hole in your heart. You may even feel a loss of identity, a sense of incompleteness, and the feeling that you are no longer a whole person. Emotionally disconnected, you may feel adrift, without an emotional anchor. Suffering a major loss can leave you deprived of emotional peace of mind. Grieving can cause emotional distress. Disheartened, you may feel an inward discontentment and frustration. You may find it difficult to rest or sleep.

Wow are you crazy? They are probably disabled and living on their food stamps which could be $300 and they tipped you $35 that is a huge tip!!!! I use my food stamps for my order I don’t ask them to carry nothing in although I definitely need help because I can’t ford to tip more and I can only tip 5-10% because I don’t make enough money to pay rent even been on once I was a child and I can’t work. If you think $25 is cheap you need a different line of work you have ridiculous expectations of tipping! That is the big problem with people these days thinking people should just give them money. People are homeless and living on their social security checks or they are telling you what a hero you are because they suffer from a disabling condition and to them $25 is like $200 wow you are literally clueless to life like most younger people thinking everyone should just give them what they think they rightfully deserve in life. Sounds like you don’t understand life elderly or disabled people

A dolphin wouldn't stop "checking" her belly on vacation, and a doctor later said it may have saved two lives Lena was eight months pregnant ano spending a quiet week at a resort, and the highlight of her trip was a supervised dolphin encounter where the animals gently swam up to visitors. She was smiling the whole time, especially when one dolphin drifted close and pressed its head near her stomach the way people describe as "using sonar." At frst. it felt sweet and almost funny because the dolphin kept coming back to her even when the trainer tried to redirect it Then the dolphin's behavior changed. It became unusuallv focused, circling her and making short, insistent sounds, and it refused to swim away like it normally would The caretaker's face dropped, and he quietly told Lena something he almost never tells she felt even slightly unwell, she should gc get checked immediately Lena brushed it off at first. but she couldn't shake the feeling, so she went to a loca clinic the same day. Within minutes, the doctor's tone turned serious. Her blood pressure was dangerously high, and she was diagnosed with severe preeclampsia, a pregnancy complication that can escalate quickly and put both mother and baby at risk. The medica team decided the safest option was an early delivery, and her baby arrived prematurely, but safely A few weeks later. Lena returned to the resort with her newborn, partly for closure and partly because she couldn't stop thinking about that moment in the water When the dolphin swam up again and ingered calmly beside them, Lena held her baby close and whispered, "Thank you, like she was speaking to the only creature who somehow knew before anyone else did

Research shows songs from your teenage years leave the deepest emotional imprint! 🧠🎧

This is to people that use the delivery food apps that doesn’t like to tip because you feel like you “don’t have to!” Those apps pay no more than 4.75 sometimes 2.50 it’s not much at all depending on how far away the delivery is you may get like 6-7$ if you’re too lazy to cook or pickup your own groceries the least you can do is tip. Not to mention the wear && tear on people’s cars, the price of gas, time to pickup/shop for your groceries etc. if you had integrity, respect, or appreciation you should want to tip because those delivery apps don’t pay what people think the tips are what makes it a little worth it sometimes. If you can’t afford to tip go get your own groceries or drive your own car to the restaurant you desire if you can’t afford to tip a few dollars. I see people calling this people arrogant because they expect a tip when you all sound like entitled selfish assholes as well for “NOT WANTING TO TIP FOR SOMETHING YOU WANT/ORDERED!” #DoorDash #UberEats #Instacart

🔬💡 Researchers have developed a breakthrough "molecular jackhammer" technique that uses near-infrared light to physically destroy cancer cells. This method utilizes specialized dye molecules, known as aminocyanines, which attach to the surface of malignant cells. When exposed to specific frequencies of near-infrared light, these molecules vibrate in a synchronized, high-speed motion—a trillion times per second. This intense mechanical vibration creates tiny tears in the protective cell membranes, causing the cancer cells to rupture and expire. In laboratory settings, this mechanical approach has achieved a 99 percent kill rate, offering a powerful new way to eliminate tumors without relying on traditional chemical interventions. A primary advantage of this "molecular jackhammer" is its ability to bypass the drug resistance that often renders chemotherapy and other pharmaceutical treatments ineffective. Because the destruction is purely mechanical rather than chemical, the cancer cells cannot develop biological defenses against the physical impact. Furthermore, near-infrared light possesses the unique ability to penetrate deep into human tissue without causing damage to healthy cells. This allows for a highly targeted, non-invasive treatment that focuses the destructive energy solely on the tumor site, minimizing the systemic side effects typically associated with toxic therapies. The successful application of these molecular motors represents a significant leap forward in the field of nanomedicine. By moving toward a "mechanical" oncology model, researchers are opening doors to treating cancers in sensitive areas of the body where surgery or high-dose radiation might be too risky. While this technology is currently in the experimental phase, its potential to provide a drug-free, highly efficient alternative to current standards of care is immense.

An average adult human body contains approximately 4.5 to 5.7 liters (about 1.2 to 1.5 gallons) of blood, which typically accounts for roughly 7–8% of total body weight. Blood volume varies by sex, weight, and age, with adult males generally having 5–6 liters and females about 4–5 liters. Blood Volume Breakdown Adults: ~4.5–5.7 liters (approx. 9–12 pints). Children: ~70–80 mL of blood per kilogram of body weight. Infants: A newborn has about 75–85 mL of blood per kilogram of body weight, usually totaling only a few cups. Pregnancy: Pregnant individuals have 30–50% more blood volume to support the baby. Key Facts on Blood Volume Blood Loss: Losing about 1 pint (roughly 500 mL) is generally safe, as in blood donation, but losing over 40% of blood volume is often life-threatening. Composition: Roughly 10% of an adult's body weight is blood. Factors: People at higher altitudes, who have less oxygen to breathe, often have higher blood volume. Regeneration: The body can quickly replace lost plasma in a few days, but red blood cells take weeks.
