  2. Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
  3. You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
  4. Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
  5. Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.

Going by that logic, just a meter deep is a crushing death. And right where you are you could smash your head against something... which is at least also something that happens all the time, no need to look at theoretical far-away things when the boring truth is far worse.

And most modern cars are less than a second or two away from deadly speeds while driving if not already travelling at deadly speeds 😅

Don’t lots of us die falling off of toilets?

[–] prettybunnys@sh.itjust.works 14 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Dying on the toilet, then falling off, is common.

The poop process is a full body clench and it’s “common” for your “heart to pop” when you’re pooping.

So that’s fun.

People need to drink more water.

Vegetables are communist.

I only eat steak. I'm a carnivore, you see. I know biology says otherwise but that's of the devil.

Just a few days ago, someone I know had to be hospitalized because of somehow slipping and smashing badly into their desk while doing normal, boring office work. From how it was described to me, I cannot help thinking sex was somehow involved, like receiving or giving oral sex from under the table maybe.
EDIT: Typing this, I was reminded of a guy who got smacked in the back of his head. Got X-rayed, everything looked normal. They kept him in the hospital for observation, though. X-ray again after an hour, a huge hematoma had evolved under his skin, pressing on the upper spine. They immediately drained it. Otherwise, it would have killed him very quickly.
