Mad Bigfoot

#i firmly believe that the reason why concussions and brain damage in general#are not taken nearly as seriously as they should be#is because of football#if we take concussions and brain trauma seriously then we have to acknowledge the risks that children are undertaking at even#high school level football#but we can't do that#because the kids need to play football in high school so they can play football in college so they can join the NFL#This time I'm really gonna queue it.

I recently watched this video by hydn called “The Great Concussion Denial” and holy fucking shit. Made me sick to my stomach. The tldr is that it’s all the NFL pushing football on kids but that’s really diluting the story

Has a student who had a seizure, referred to Stanford, he had arachnoid cysts, he also had a bulging that looked like the beginning of an aneurysm, told he had to stop football. He is in an elective I teach. His mom calls me crying, he is getting on the bus for a special lineman camp, he told his coach he was cleared to play. This woman is telling me, “I don’t want to be the bad guy, he’ll hate me.” My tubby butt walking over to tell the coach he is not cleared. Kid screamed at me, cursing me out, in my face. I told coach to go with the players. I had this. Screamed he would never forgive me. Told him he would thank me when he could dance at his wedding, or when he could still speak at his college graduation. Next year the kid playing the same position got the exact same condition.

BITCH, those puppies are $5 at COSTCO, we are all sharing a single membership. Sending our girl Tanya in to get those birds and bring them out to disseminate to the rest of us. And we great her like the second coming of Christ.

Where's that tweet about how American chants are "let's go [team name] and some other country (Irish?) fans are "I've made up a song about the other team's drinking problem to the tune of London Bridge Is Falling Down one two three"?

Diabolical

auto immune disorders happen when the immune system ignores regulatory factors and begins attacking healthy bodily tissues, due to what scientists refer to as "sheer love of the game"

My best friend was diagnosed with Lupus after I paid for the cascade test. Having 42 food allergies and 60 environmental was my tip off that something was desperately wrong. When she got her diagnosis she had no idea what it was, except for on “House” it was never Lupus. She had a hard time understanding it, so I told her. Your immune system knows who to attack because all you cells are like players in uniform, the immune system never attacks someone in the same uniform. Well, Lupus is what happens when your immune system wakes up color blind. So they attack everything, aggressively.

if you see hardware on yhe ground like a washer or a hex nut you have to pick it up because it’s lonely and scared. if you see any metal on the ground you have to pick it up because it’s alone and scared and lonely.

hbo max blocks screenshots even when I use the snipping tool AND firefox AND ublock which is a fucking first. i will never understand streaming services blocking the ability to take screenshots thats literally free advertising for your show right there. HOW THE HELL IS SOMEBODY GONNA PIRATE YOUR SHOW THROUGH SCREENSHOTS. JACKASS

somewhere out there is a guy who meticulously takes screenshots of every individual frame of his favorite tv shows and then painstakingly etches each one onto a roll of film which he puts into his old timey projector and recreates the footage as a silent film with his own lavishly hand-lettered dialogue cards and original score that he plays on his upright piano and charges audiences one shiny penny a play. at last, big media has finally outsmarted ol' Zachary Zoetrope

This also fixes screen sharing to other screens. It has been GODSEND

ol' Zachary Zoetrope is back in business!
