  • I also agree with this statement, although it’s well within the realm of possibility that life on Earth was seeded by an ancient extraterrestrial civilization. That’s a timescale of a few billion years.

    But it’s still not as stupid as thinking that the supreme creator of the infinite universe has a personal interest in how you live your life.













  • There are 100% people with a gene that makes them metabolize anesthesia super rapidly, myself included. It’s linked to the gene for red hair, but red hair isn’t a requirement (I have it and I’m not a redhead, although my mom is).

    I’ve 100% woken up during surgeries I should not have been conscious for, because the anesthesiologist didn’t believe me. Those include a pediatric colonoscopy, surgery to set a broken arm, my TEE (I was conscious, but in twilight sleep. Took 3 vials of versed and I still remember it), and my septoplasty.

    And it’s not just general anesthesia either. It takes a fuck load of local anesthesia for me to feel it. My last filling they had to give me so much it paralyzed half my face for a while. Also, I wish my urologist had believed me when I said I wasn’t numb for my vasectomy.
