50 ‘Cool Guides’ People Shared On This Group That Contain Information They Don’t Teach At School
Interview
One of my secret pleasures (and feel free to chime in if you’re a geek like me) is looking through various colorful guides and infographics, from what plants are edible in forests to hypothetical explanations on how best to survive the zombie Apocalypse that 2020 promised but never delivered.
The multi-million-member ‘Cool Guides’ community on Reddit is the prime place to go to for (yup, you guessed it!) cool guides. From aesthetically pleasing and very informative ones to quirky and funny ones, you’ll find a bit of everything to keep those noggins of yours learning and yearning for more, dear Pandas.
Bored Panda had a lovely chat with redditor Dadschool, who founded the r/coolguides subreddit way back in 2014 and is still its head moderator to this very day. Having started the sub with no real expectations of forming a community around it, he filled a niche on Reddit that had been empty. "I had a bit of a compulsive habit of saving every guide I came across on Reddit with the idea that I'd somehow reference it when I needed it later. There weren't really any subs for general guides so I made one and uploaded all my guides at once. I think a lot of people have a similar affection for bitesize trivia and hoarding generalist knowledge." You'll find the rest of our interview with the founder below.
Upvote your fave guides as you scroll on down, drop us a comment with your thoughts below, and go and join the r/coolguides subreddit if it’s right up your alley. But a quick note of warning before we begin: this is a community mostly for guides; infographics are in a bit of a grey area.

A More Comprehensive Guide To Symptoms Of Depression

This is a good one, saving this to show others, beats having to explain yet again what will most likely not be understand (yet again). Explanation never beats the picture it seems. I’ve given up on explaining... too disappointing to see the stubborn judgemental doubts about “my” explanation. A picture seems more trustworthy than a longtime depressed good-for-nothing that just wants to talk her way out of doing something, like go to work “like the rest of us have too”. Sigh, like drowning in the middle of an ocean with only the mentioning of there being such a thing as land to prevent that drowning in that aweful muck the depression likes to be is so desirable I would give up something that would actually make me money, providing the care I so need and hence, make me feel like I’m worth a dime would be that desirable. Some people just don’t want to know. Maybe this helps. Also, it can be half of these and then switch to the other half and back numerous times over the years.
The founder, Dadschool, was very humble about his role in expanding the community. "I can say it is only able to be this size because moderators like @etymologynerd and @robinsparkles18 are as active as they are, and the time they take out of their day to check in," he praised his colleagues. With a leader so supportive, no wonder that the mod r/coolguides mod team stands shoulder to shoulder, come hell or high water.
"The unique thing about Reddit is that subreddits really are independent and are autonomously moderated communities. I think our subscriber ranking is something like 190 across all of Reddit and it's not like there's monetization options after you break 200 or conversations with Reddit corporate. We're the same mod team we were a few years ago, excited that we broke 100k, and checking Reddit throughout the day to make sure no one uploaded the same damn apple guide uploaded 100 times that week," the founder claimed that things are still pretty much as they've always been.

There is something called cPTSD, or "complex PTSD", which occurs in those of us whose trauma was inflicted steadily, readily, constantly, throughout childhood or over decades in adulthood. We have no pre-trauma life, so we aren't typical PTSD patients in that sense. We don't have a "normal" we miss. We freak out at what others call normal. It's real. it sucks. Abused children often grow up to develop this type of PTSD, in my experience (and my peer support PTSD group).... Let us heal. We may not fully heal ever, but since some were hurt before they could speak words? ... It's harder than most think.

Nowadays, the founder of r/coolguides is a tad more lax about infographics than when he first founded the subreddit. These days, he's more keen to let the community decide what direction it wants to go via upvotes and engagement. He trusts the community. "I see the moderator role as more akin to a landscaper: pruning [troll] posts, removing harmful posts, and moderating for content diversity. Subscribers are much better judges of content quality and validity than moderators and I think it's important to trust them in that role." He added (and this is a feeling that I completely agree with): "I will admit, however, that the majority of guides I enjoy most myself rarely break 50/100 upvotes."

Thank you so much. Every time I introduce a story or wanna talk about something, my family (everyone who I'm trying to talk to at the moment, actually) totally disregards me and interrupts with a different topic. Happened just last night when my sister was visiting. I was about to say something that I'd come across on BP, and literally while I was speaking, my sister (who is 10 years older than me, not just a little kid trying to get attention) managed to say a few words and divert everyone's attention to her as she talked about something totally unrelated. This happens the majority of the time I try to tell even a short story or make a comment on something with them. I even confronted them of this by saying "I feel disregarded," and my mom just looked at me with an unfathomable expression, then turned and continued listening to what my sister had to say. :/

When sharing with your friend, tell them it works best if the "things" are named out loud (this aids breath control). Each "thing" can only appear on one list. EG If I see a pen but then it can't appear on the touch list. This slows the mind and focus the person on what is "out there" not on what horrible feelings are going on "within".

I see a great deal of patients (I'm a paramedic, 27 years) that are having true (and very real to them) anxiety attacks. When I used to quickly medicate them, to calm them, I use this. Depending on the person (and my mood), I change the items they need to think and consider....5 favorite foods, 4 places you want to visit, etc. With each number, I ask them a few questions based on what they name (ex. One favorite food is pizza...what kind do you like? Extra cheese? Crust?). In the (roughly) 10 years I have used Grounding, I have only had a few patients that still need medication, or need to go through them, again (changing what they fit into each number). A few patients think I'm ridiculous, I ask them to just play along...they humor me. When it is all done, I teach them how to use it. Grounding works. Try it!!

That is just a bad chef, who just doesn't know how to make a proper well done steak and is partaking in this popular misconception to cover up with snobbery his lack of skills, or not having the right cut of meat to make a juicy well done steak.

The niqab and the burka should not be legal in our society. First because the face is the way of conveying emotions and covering it it’s dehumanising but specially for security.

All muslims are required to dress modestly. The male version is less extreme. Men will cover most of their hair. You don't see Muslim men in shorts (except sportsmen) or shirtless. Until the mid-20th century, it was common for married Christian women to cover their hair when in public. Just think of images of medieval woman in white veils, Henry VIII's wives with angular hoods or Victorian women in their bonnets. The hats gradually got smaller through the 20th century but even in the 50's, a married woman still commonly wore a hat when going out.

Exactly. We also used to cover our women as if they needed to be ashamed of themselves. But we evolved. Cultures need to grow or they get stagnant in the past.

Empowerment isn't individual. Things that empower women, empower women as a class, not make an individual feel good. If it raises woman as a whole up and gives them power, it's empowering (voting rights, land ownership, money ownership, divorce ability, etc) if it doesn't give women as a class power but makes you feel good or maybe makes your personal life a tad easier, it's not (wearing makeup, shaving, wearing super revealing stuff or religion mandated modest clothing, etc)

Well, this is not very accurate at all.

Edit - I freely admit to crying on occasions, but it wasn't ever at level 7.
What’s more, you should aim to write concisely. Plainly. Simply. Structure and break up the content to make it easier to read. Give your guide some flow and make it easy for the reader to understand what’s what.
Meanwhile, some of the things that you should avoid are incredibly technical terms in the title and headings. Also, omit useless words and info. Less. Is. More. (Unless you absolutely have to add in those extra words for whatever unavoidable reasons.)

Also: Lying is OK. "You already took care of that. You already went to the bank/store/etc." You have to make sure that these things are done already, but it helps calm worries, and gives them a sense that they're in control and valuable.. Yes, I've been through this mill; still going through it.

According to the mods, their online page is for “picture based reference guides for anything and everything. If it seems like something someone might print, physically post, and reference then it is a good link for this sub.”
However, this doesn’t always include infographics. The mods explain that infographics are learning tools, whereas guides are reference tools. Sometimes, the area between the two becomes blurred.
If you do end up posting what the mods deem to be an infographic, they might decide to remove it. “An infographic is more educational in layout and content, finding something specific on an infographic is not as easy because it is designed to inform through more narrative structures. If your guide is more of a visual essay than a structured table or list, then chances are that is an infographic. Sometimes infographics can masquerade as how-to guides.”

How To Turn Down An Invite.
troufaki13 4 years ago
First you decline, then be gracious. Wording is very essential and people tend to pay attention to the sentence after the "but". For example "I won't be able to make it, but thank you for considering me" vs "thank you for inviting me, but I can't come". I think the first one sounds better, even if it's essentially the same.
Kirsten Kerkhof 4 years ago
I use this system in my class when students happen to give a wrong answer. "That is a good answer, but I think that in this context we could do better. But thanks for your input, it's a great start. Who can elaborate or add?" And even if they give an answer that is just flat wrong (and it's not a joke), I try to wrap it in a compliment. "Mmm, I'm not sure that answer would fit here, but thank you very much for volunteering an answer. I'm pretty sure it'll help the others. Who can help?" Especially with the online teaching when interaction is necessarily limited, I think it really work to have lots of encouragement and compliments.

You can work on more natural ways to cope with it later. Please, look for help! Stress and chronic anxiety are killers, too. They destroy you body and your immune system.

How did this heart attack guide turn into a gender war? There are MEDICAL RELATED gender differences, it doesn't mean one gender is better or worse.
Leo Domitrix 4 years ago
Nobody said it did. And, for the record, i suspect that this stems from the fact not much research was done into women's heart attack deaths until relatively recently by comparison, and the male model is frankly outdated. I'm in medicine, so is my FIL, when you see one in real life, you know that NO HEART ATTACK PLAYS BY THE TEXTBOOK.

Women, If you think you are having a heart attack and your doctor is male, remind him that women have different heart attack symptoms than men(politely) by saying, "I thought that I should contact you because I know that women have different heart attack symptoms than men."
Paul Davis 4 years ago
Men get these other symptoms too. But generally their heart attacks are easier to recognize, so they add the other symptoms for women. But I think it'd be best if they just had all the additional symptoms for both sides, because sometimes mens' heart attacks are also ignored because they present with the indigestion/fatigue and so forth.
Leo Domitrix 4 years ago
Yes. I'll say it again: THESE SYMPTOMS AFFECT BOTH GENDERS. REporting and research have done more to skew the idea than anything else. I was taught, not even 30 years ago, to assume indigestion and nausea were automatically potential warning signs of heart attack. When the he** did *that* change?!?! (Rhetorical).

I didn't have much chest pain with mine, but I did have pain in both shoulders that reminded me of post-surgical gas pain. My other symptom was an overwhelming feeling that something was very wrong. Turns out, my right coronary artery was 90% blocked. Once the surgeon put the stent in, I felt perfectly fine, albeit quite tired.

The fact that you have most symptoms doesn't mean you have a heart atrack. If you had had one, you would have had serious consequences if untreated. Many different conditions have similar symptoms. That's what makes diagnosis so difficult.

I don't care much about formal education for regular policing - but temperament is critical. And firearms training - you should get bonus points for being able to hit extremities on the move to disable/disarm instead of kill shots - leave those to SWAT. In fact, take away guns from most police - they respond after the fact anyway 90% of the time and no gun is needed. Also - abolish qualified immunity. Every complaint is investigated and logged. So even if "nothing is found" if you have an officer with multiple complaints, something is going on. Take Derek Chavin, for example... over 20 complaints of excessive force, three or four resulting in death. He's not a cop - he's a killer.
