They who stay quiet in the void

A recent hospital admission that turned out to be kidney damage caused by multiple factors, but one of which was dehydration from being to unwell to eat or drink sufficiently. I explained that often, early in the day attempting to swallow anything cause my throat too tighten and the food/drink 1/2

A question from Reddit that I'll answer here: "What's the most unhinged thing a doctor has said to you with a straight face?"

If it's yellow, let it mellow If it's brown, flush it down If it's pink, beetroot I think If it's green, the Grinch has been If it's blue, your chewing gum got through If there's stripes, you've talented pipes If it's see through, you didn't poo If its red, you're dead.

Absolute nonsense that a prison overcrowding story has been turned into MPs placating victims (or their families) of serious crimes when they (the MPs, are we enjoying my sentence structure?) are the same lot who criminalised protesting against genocide.

Somewhere along the way, being wrong about facts was reclassified as "having an opinion," and knowing facts was stigmatized as "having bias." It's a big part of why we're in hell now.

In mountainous countries with settlements in the valleys it makes sense for there to be phone masts on the hill/mountain tops to pass the signal between valleys, even if it seem remote when you're up there *shrug* Bet they still get blind spots in the towns too in places.

We aren't angry enough about how shit the phone signal is in the UK. I've been up mountains in mainland Europe and still been able to get 4 bars of signal, whereas over here I can be sat in a pub and my phone will think I'm on the fucking moon.

The nurse bringing breakfast just apologised cause the milk for the cereal had spilled slightly on the tray. Like, you definitely don't need to worry about that, I am bound very strongly by the laws of proverb to accept this situation with good grace.

I've just spent a good five minutes trying to determine the source of a dripping sound in this room. It is a hospital room, in which I'm a patient and recieving a slow infusion of intravenous medicine. Can you crack the mystery faster than me?
