A wet fart is a slightly more polite way to say shit yourself.
Basically if there is poo in your undies after a fart it was a wet day.

I message my wife when I get to work and when I'm leaving. So somewhere between an hour and 7 or 8 depending on exactly when in my day I get nabbed for her to notice.
My work colleagues would probably try to call me if I didn't turn up (I've fallen off my bike before so they might suspect that) but I don't think they would put out a police report immediately if I just didn't turn up one morning.
I have a rough idea of my outgoings each month as compared to my income and I just make sure I don't spend more than I earn at least most of the time.
My wife occasionally sits down and does a proper budget so we can move around recurring payments and make sure we keep things fair.
Either a whole load of books, fiction, tabletop RPG sci-fi. I would also need to buy more bookshelves to put these on.
A decent upgrade to my computer, maybe a new graphics card.
A sword or two, some better protective kit for sparring.
In summary of the nature article:
Listen and be interested in why they hold those opinions, use motivational interviewing techniques (I explain this as Inception, trying to get the patient to have the ideas) and provide solid evidence, be realistic about data and certainty, ie the MMR vaccine is safe (and doesn't cause autism) the COVID vaccine has less data as it's newer, but it is still safer for the vast majority of people than COVID.
34 male. Grew up with 3 siblings. Always wanted kids when I was younger. As I got older, met my wife and started living together we had lots of discussions about kids. She was never really interested in them and the whole pregnancy and giving birth thing terrified her.
On lots of reflection I realised that I was only interested in kids because of family and societal pressure, I think the world is over populated and generally heading downhill (fascism is massively on the rise globally, global warming, various wars) so decided that I didn't want to bring a child into that.
There's plenty of children in the foster system so if we change our minds later we can adopt and give a good home to a child that needs one.
This isn't a question random people on the internet can answer easily, but I can offer you some things to think about which might help.
I'm in a medical field in the UK and do some interviewing so I'd be asking you why you want to pick a job with long hours, bad pay (comparatively for the responsibility), poor working conditions? Medicine is not a job for people who want to breeze through or are just a little bit interested in biology and people.
I'd recommend you get some work experience, health care assistant jobs are commonplace in the UK and a great way to see if medicine is right for you, universities here look on it very favourably as well. If you can do a 12 hour shift where you are exposed to blood, poo, urine and vomit and still want to go back for more then I'd say medicine is probably an ok field for you.
What are your goals? Helping people is a common response in medical interviews but you can help in lots of ways, law like you've already been considering, engineering, accounting etc. What do you get out of medicine that you can't get elsewhere?
Do you want to make lots of money and have an easier life, don't pick medicine, pick something else.
No. Chavs were the school bullies for me growing up so I get a pretty strong visceral ewe from that style choice.
My Dad's gone totally off the rails conspiracy theory nutty.
Fake moon landings, fluoride in the water is mind control, vaccines cause autism and maybe microchips and mind control again, foreign people are simultaneously lazy stealing benefits and stealing all the jobs, my god the racism. He fell into an echo chamber during COVID and hasn't come out again.
The best one was when I was telling him as a healthcare professional on the front lines watching patients and colleagues die that COVID was serious and we should take any opportunity to avoid it and make it better, he told me it was just flu and all fake news.
Yeah I don't talk to my parents much anymore.
I might be reading this wrong but I'm not convinced it helps. My read of this is basically we get 1 free go at surviving and can send messages back to the start point for the second go to try and survive.
You could keep a running commentary of what you're doing and where you're going which would give you a little bit of notice of where and when you die but unless you can time loop and continually adjust the plan until you find something that works I don't see how knowing 1 point of failure is enough to keep you alive.
Maybe someone smarter than me has a better idea though, or I've got the prompt wrong.
I work in a hospital so: scalpels, oxygen bottles/ wall supply explosions (hard to do without disabling the safety's which I don't know how to do), plenty of radiation sources in the building, loads of dangerous drugs from sedatives to painkillers to chemotherapy. If I'm lucky the monster might just die of MRSA or pneumonia before they get to me.
It really depends what you mean by survive.
You could do ECMO and dialysis and get rid of the heart, lungs and kidneys, parenteral nutrition to feed via an IV so no need for a gut.
The patient would be bed bound and at immediate risk of dying from a complication but in theory that's basically an empty abdominal cavity connected to a brain and a bunch of machines.
You would need enough decent sized blood vessels left to connect it all up but otherwise not much physically.
