No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

They do. It’s why you have an immune system. You’re literally being attacked millions of times per day but keep it in check.
It can happen. And when it does, it can be horrendously painful and hard to treat.
The gist of it is thicker skin, stronger immune system presence down there, higher blood flow down there.
Hank Green asked this about anal fissures and had a bunch of doctors replying. From what I remember your immune system is different in different parts of your body and your body is prepared to handle it down there. Unless your immune system gets compromised then it can get infected.
Oh yeah, this is also the case with our eyeballs, right? They have their own little immune system in there.
Eww that could explain how that Doctors Without Borders guy recovered from Ebola but then they found it still living in his eye. https://www.science.org/content/article/ebola-persisted-doctor-s-eye-months
Generally "poop bacteria" such as e-coli do not cause skin infections, they thrive in a different environment. Even infections in the anal region are generally caused by skin bacteria such as Staphylococcus.
Who are you who are so wise in the ways of science? :)
We have ourselves a pile of proctologists!
This sounds like something George Clooney's character in O Brother Where Art Thou might say.
Personally, a proverbial pile of proctologists pass as performers called "The Soggy Bottom Boys" perfectly.
Honestly I can hear it
Bum science, specifically...
SHE'S A WITCH!
Beyond skin infections, what happens when they enter your bloodstream? Id figure that'd happen with a broken hemorrhoid, since it's basically and open wound that poop just sits on all day
The skin on your body isn't uniform; it's at varying textures and thicknesses in different parts, and its absorbency varies in different parts, as well.
The skin around your anus is very resistant to infection due to its particular mixture of these properties.
What are you wiping with????
80 grit
rookie move, you start at 100 and move up to higher numbers until smooth.
Oh my pkcell
He doesn't know how to use the three shells.
So do you just scoop it out with those shells or what?
Dry paper is abrasive.
