Space Koala

My meager education in biology and evolution gave me the mistaken impression that evolution optimized everything. But it didn't. One example is the recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN). It goes from behind your ear, loops down below your aorta, and then back up to the voice-box 1/2

Reinforcing negative neural pathways via therapy or introspection is a recipe for misery. Don’t cut a rut in the road.

🚨 Your hospital's MRI machine is about to stop working. And nobody is talking about it. MRI machines need helium to run. Not optional — without helium coolant, the machine is a $3 million paperweight. Here's the problem: – Helium comes from natural gas wells – No gas drilling → no helium – Oil at $175/barrel is reshaping the ENTIRE energy market – Helium supplies are already tied up with LNG fuel demand – Hospitals are LAST in line This isn't some future scenario. Helium shortages have already shut down MRI machines across the country before — and that was when energy markets were STABLE. Now imagine what happens when they're NOT. – Cancer screenings — DELAYED – Brain tumor detection — DELAYED – Spinal injury diagnosis — DELAYED – Heart disease imaging — DELAYED Not a battlefield. Not a warzone. A HOSPITAL. And helium is only the tip of the iceberg. Petrochemicals run through EVERYTHING in modern medicine — surgical gloves, IV bags, syringes, plastic tubing, pharmaceutical coatings. Cut the supply chain and hospitals don't just get expensive. They stop functioning. This opened a door that CANNOT be closed. READ THAT AGAIN. If you're seeing this, the algorithm hasn't caught up yet. Follow + RT NOW. 🚨

same actually! thailand-based plastics production is unbelievably fucked

Both solar panels and wind turbines contain significant amounts of plastic. Where do you think plastic comes from?

FUN FACT—helium cools the superconducting magnets in more than 14,000 MRI machines used in hospitals worldwide. We lost the largest helium extraction plant in the world in Qatar. US reserves running low. Helium cannot be produced de novo. Any helium escape is permanent.

Hating on something but having to defend it because the haters are hating on it WRONG
