Same medical student as that other question, thank you for the answer! I was also thinking that bone damage would cause disruption in red blood cell production as well as structural issues due to reduced bone density, I also wonder if this theoretical person would even have leg function. This is all just wondering on my part but it was a fun thought exercise! Also you seem super cool and super smart!
You can always look into like ISS astronaut med reports but yeah low gravity has big effects on muscle density/function as well as like cardiovascular function

Heya just a quick question from a medical student, about the scenario you did with your physics buds about saving that theoretical person from a black hole. Just out of curiosity did you consult a physician on the physiological changes or damage to your theoretical victim of the blackhole? This is mainly just out of curiosity cause I've been thinking about the effects ever since and see it as a interesting question cause I really like both physics and medicine. I hope you have a nice day!
basically we confirmed that he survived with minimal spaghettification from the black hole.
Considering what spaghettification would do to a body, you could expect major joint pain and arthritis from the experience, as well as weakened muscles and a weakened circulatory system which would lead to high blood pressure as well as heart failure as time progressed
I’m mashing my physics knowledge along with whatever spare info my parents have dropped as nurses into this scenario so I could be wrong here.
It SNOWED in MISSISSIPPI!!! It ended up being the heaviest snow since the 1880s! Anyway I saw a lot of people making videos of their dogs experiencing snow for the first time so this happened
I love that snails can cringe so hard their entire face disappears

A 116 year old photo of JRR Tolkien’s wife, Edith Tolkien (restored). She was Tolkien’s inspiration for Lúthien.
A 53-year-old photo released by The Chicago Tribune that shows Bernie Sanders being dragged away from a protest by the police is genuine, according to Sanders. According to the paper, the 1963 protest was over the racist practice of “Willie Wagons.”
Sterling Silver Victorian Dragon’s Breath Necklace
Crafted out of sterling silver, this victorian pendant holds a lovely piece of dragon’s breath. Dragon’s breath is commonly referred to as a fire opal, and is a deep red in color with flecks of blue throughout its entire surface. This pendant is accented with leaves and vines around its perimeter. Hung on an 18” chain. Sold on Etsy.
Here’s a thing I’ve had around in my head for a while!
Okay, so I’m pretty sure that by now everyone at least is aware of Steampunk, with it’s completely awesome Victorian sci-fi aesthetic. But what I want to see is Solarpunk – a plausible near-future sci-fi genre, which I like to imagine as based on updated Art Nouveau, Victorian, and Edwardian aesthetics, combined with a green and renewable energy movement to create a world in which children grow up being taught about building electronic tech as well as food gardening and other skills, and people have come back around to appreciating artisans and craftspeople, from stonemasons and smithies, to dress makers and jewelers, and everyone in between. A balance of sustainable energy-powered tech, environmental cities, and wicked cool aesthetics.
A lot of people seem to share a vision of futuristic tech and architecture that looks a lot like an ipod – smooth and geometrical and white. Which imo is a little boring and sterile, which is why I picked out an Art Nouveau aesthetic for this.
With energy costs at a low, I like to imagine people being more inclined to focus their expendable income on the arts!
Aesthetically my vision of solarpunk is very similar to steampunk, but with electronic technology, and an Art Nouveau veneer.
So here are some buzz words~
Natural colors!
Art Nouveau!
Handcrafted wares!
Tailors and dressmakers!
Streetcars!
Airships!
Stained glass window solar panels!!!
Education in tech and food growing!
Less corporate capitalism, and more small businesses!
Solar rooftops and roadways!
Communal greenhouses on top of apartments!
Electric cars with old-fashioned looks!
No-cars-allowed walkways lined with independent shops!
Renewable energy-powered Art Nouveau-styled tech life!
Can you imagine how pretty it would be to have stained glass windows everywhere that are actually solar panels? The tech is already headed in that direction! Or how about wide-brim hats, or parasols that are topped with discreet solar panel tech incorporated into the design, with ports you can stick your phone charger in to?
