I was reading my Medical Terminology book and I learned tampon truly is a medical etiology term meaning "to stop, block'

And that there are tampons for other parts of the body.

Mind. Blown!

I just thought Tampon was like a brand name for an object used during menstruation.

What did you learn today?

I learned that brittle starfish exist and “dance” quite erratically in the water. Funny creatures

their's a bird called a brambling

I learnt the lyrics of the song by Queen: The world that we created and I sang it badly but with a perfect pronunciation.

Very good post. Congratulations!!! Brilliant idea. 💖

Ear tampons are often very helpful to avoid listening bull $hit. 😂

some lifehacks from youtube

I learnt that I can’t cook and I better be ordering food for lunch.

That if I fight a traffic ticket in court, even if I lose, the fine will be less than if I pay it without fighting it.

I don't see how 10 inch heels are possible! I used to sometimes wear 2 inch heels but now I always wear flats. And I am 5'2".

My mom says she has fallen a few times during red carpet events and shows as a result of them.

Administration always wins. Sometimes you have to desist for the cost or for real boredom. 🙄

If she really wants to look taller, maybe she should wear a pair of these.

Learnt the expression `Through and through’. I listened to it for the second time and couldn’t get the meaning through even through the context.

I have just forgotten, lol!
It means something like (from side to side, from the beginning of something to the end of it).
Now, I have to quickly find opportunities to use it as much as possible to make it mine.

I also learnt a lot about Personality Disorders and I now see clearer why they can’t be cured.

Nothing worth mentioning. I avoid learning anything new as much as possible. Ignorance is bliss...

I learnt today one of the most relevant things I have learnt ever.
I have just written it on my journal.
Literally, I wrote: I have to be more compassionate with others, more understanding. No matter what, I can’t change people. It’s their right and it’s up to me how to handle it.

I know, you all know this. I read it many times, and I believe it but nonetheless, I didn’t get to put it into practise. Now, it’s a fact in my life. I mean, I got to make it a real learning.

Sometimes, it’s better. Yes.

She must have darn long feet! A2 + b2 = c2?

[downandlonely]

yeah, my feet are so small. 6 inch heels are about the tallest I would be able to wear. And I can't walk in them.

I just learned yesterday that Moderna was FDA approved back in Janurary. I avoid the news for my own mental health sakes but I guess its good to know some stuff.

[MuseumGhost]

We watched a PBS documentary (American Experience, always a good watch) about Duke Kahanamoku. What a very cool and wonderful human being!

[Mountaindewed]

Theres a "concerning" meteor the size of the empire state building thats gonna hurdle past earth in a few hours. NASA says theres no danger but its only a few million miles away and I guess the distance is enough for it to be considered "concerning"
