It’s weird to think that interest can be put on a scale. Like, a continuum ranging from interesting to the minimal, tiny iota degree to the maximum, universal level of approval.

It’s even weirder that we have a dedicated online community that focuses on a very particular part of this continuum—the mild interest.

But you already know that. Probably. Whatever the case, there is no shortage of mildly interesting things to see and experience in the world, and the beauty of technology allows you to see it just one scroll away.

It'll be fine. If your pets eat it, they will be fine as well unless they happen to be allergic to the protein in the bait that surrounds the vaccine. That usually only results in itchy skin and/or digestive upset. I've had to work alongside this program for over 18 years and it is a wonderful thing. We used to have people bring these into the clinic panicking because they thought their animals ate poison and I would have to direct them to the health department information we had posted on our wall. Edit: The way Tennessee does this is by distribution via low flying planes and helicopters in vastly rural areas. They don't distribute the vaccines in highly populated areas. The Tennessee Health Department recommends not touching the baits and to use gloves if you need to remove them from your property. Not due to danger from the vaccine, but because it smells fishy and it might have wild animal spit on it. Here's a link... https://www.tn.gov/health/news/2021/9/28/wildlife-rabies-vaccination-project-protects-people-and-pets.html

    I don't understand why a bank would just close an account for no reason (I'm genuinely confused). I understand that your bank has the right to do this (read the fine print in your banking agreement). Usually banks want to hold on to your money, so in the absence of odd circumstances, I couldn't imagine a good reason for closing the account unless you barely use it, have excessive overdraft fees/ frequently overdrafting your account, gross violation of banking policies or they suspected fraud. It is not legal; however, for them to keep your money. They're supposed to issue you a check for whatever money is left in the account & return it to you. If not, you file a complaint, I think, with the OCC (Office of the Comptroller). While I totally agree, Chase & Wells Fargo should burn in a fiery car crash together, I think we're missing some more of this story

    Blue is nature's "DO NOT EAT" color. Before someone says blueberries, blueberries are not blue. They are kind of a purplish grey. Take it from this food scientist. Actual blue is hard to pull off. Any blue candy you eat is using synthetic food coloring. Only natural source I know of is indigo and that's a fabric dye but theoretically food safe.

    By now, you probably know what Reddit is, let alone r/mildlyinteresting. It has over 22 million members and is ranked #23 on the entire platform. At least as of this listicle.

    Even the subreddit’s description was fourth-wall breaking and kinda like “ah, screw it, it’s in the name.” That’s how universally recognized the subreddit has become.

    It’s a bit hard to explain what mildly means in the context of interest. You’d think you’re either interested in something or you’re not. Sure, you can be on the fence about it, or you can be in a situation where you want to like something. And that makes loads of sense. This is where you start to think about how much of your time and energy you’d want to allocate to whatever you’re mildly interested in. But how much is mildly?

    The concept of interest (not the financial thing) can be seen as a feeling of wanting to know or learn more about stuff. It can also be explained as a quality that attracts people for the same reason. This ultimately boils down to a joint definition that is used to describe an activity—one that draws people into taking part in it. Yeah, that doesn’t sound like anything that would by nature be scaled to a certain degree. It either is, or isn’t interesting.

    But weirdly enough, technology and the internet combined with human nature kinda explains that in and of itself: something is interesting enough to stop by while scrolling on the phone, but not necessarily interesting enough to click, comment on, upvote or act on it in any other way. And because everyone has different likes and interests in life, it’s hence a different reaction for each person.

    What is more certain is the idea of self-interest. Scottish economist and philosopher Adam Smith talked at length about the concept. The focal point of his definition of self-interest is that every person is by nature first and foremost concerned with himself. It is a certain kind of hardwiring that we as individuals forming communities, societies, and an entire race can’t help but obey.

    We had a guy call for an ambulance because he hurt his neck 3 weeks prior. We had to go into 5th Ward in Houston (IYKYK), on a Friday night, with gunfire in the distance, put on a C-collar, and load him up. As soon as we got to the hospital, the triage nurse took off the c-collar, told him to have a seat in the waiting room, and the wait was approximately 24 hours. Told us people do that all the time, hoping to be seen quicker. (This was a MAJOR trauma center, stabbings, shootings, etc, all rolling in, there was a gun shot wound coming in when we left that was getting CPR). There sre more than 85 hospitals in Houston, but he chose the busiest.

    He goes on to say that self-interest is what motivates people to pursue goals. The first of which are basic bodily human needs, like eating and staying healthy. According to Smith, this should not be confused with wants and desires—sure, everyone wants a Ferrari, and it might be within someone’s self-interest to get one, but it’s not key to your survival, and that’s Smith's take on it.

    But you can’t really ignore wants and desires, right? Sure, there is the idea that putting yourself through some suffering builds character. But if it’s taken to an extreme, it can be destructive, causing distress, anxiety, and it won’t solve the problem. Instead, it has to be a balancing act, and allowing yourself to have interests and hobbies, even to a mild degree, will have a positive impact on you, i.e. less stress and a better mood.

    Just because everyone's doing it, doesn't make it the right decision. Alcohol is really bad for brains that are still developing, which is until about 25. In my country we were allowed to start drinking beer at 16 and harder liquor at 18, which is insane. We should all be taking the US's example and make drinking age a bit higher.

    Megaesophagus is not a single disease. Instead it is considered a combination disorder in which the esophagus (the tube that carries food and liquid between the mouth and stomach) dilates (gets larger) and loses motility (its ability to move food into the stomach).

    And this now circles around to self-interest again. Whether something is a mild interest or a deep one, it’s still good to have these positive experiences about things that you genuinely like. Being interested in things is not only good for us mentally, but it is a certain kind of reward—like picking up a phone, just for a little bit, after grinding through an hour or two of work.

    I have had several weird jobs. One was to paint dentures or fake teeth to match the color of people's teeth. This was 20 years ago. With each tooth or set of teeth we were given a color to match. There weren't that many colors to choose from. There were about 6 of us in a room painting. While the boss screwed his secretary in the room next door. Your fake teeth have SEEN things. Ended up quitting because I had problems cashing the checks. They would put later dates in the checks and the business went under a few years later.

    So maybe have milk or cream near the coffee machine? You factor it into the price of the coffee and it costs the store nothing.

    ".. and the archeologists still can only guess about what purpose this rolled up material served that was often found in the cavities of so many female mummies after AD 2yk. The most likely explanation is since they are virtually indestructible the survivors of the First Carbon Collapse believed it would carry their souls together with their Life Juices over to the afterlife."

    Dear Mr. von Däniken, that is absolutely correct. The »female soul plug« was inserted into the women's bodies to ensure that the soul reached the afterworld safely after their deaths. There are even monthly cycles where graves near the Red Sea get digged out periodically and where such a felty fellow was missing. This is the main subject of the postfuturistic archaeological research and debates.

    Check out a book called "Motel of the Mysteries" by David Macaulay. (blurb from Amazon) It is the year 4022; all of the ancient country of Usa has been buried under many feet of detritus from a catastrophe that occurred back in 1985. Imagine, then, the excitement that Howard Carson, an amateur archeologist at best, experienced when in crossing the perimeter of an abandoned excavation site he felt the ground give way beneath him and found himself at the bottom of a shaft, which, judging from the DO NOT DISTURB sign hanging from an archaic doorknob, was clearly the entrance to a still-sealed burial chamber. Carson's incredible discoveries, including the remains of two bodies, one of then on a ceremonial bed facing an altar that appeared to be a means of communicating with the Gods and the other lying in a porcelain sarcophagus in the Inner Chamber, permitted him to piece together the whole fabric of that extraordinary civilization.

    That is not in the right order of release. The bottom one is the oldest then they started to do more and more things to prevent counterfeiting. I remember that style from when I was in school in the late 70s-early 80s. The top one came next and there is a watermark on the right that should have Franklin's picture (to prevent people from washing the ink off a $1 and redoing it as a $100). The middle one is the newest version with special ink that changes color from different angles and has the printed denomination threads.

    Many places have differing thoughts on construction and maintenance of buildings. The hospital I worked at would have someone cleaning and or painting that wall the moment it started to show. Damaged chips and paint would be fixed fairly regularly not just at hospitals but in many business and event homes. In other countries I've been too there seems to be little maintenance and repairs to aesthetic features including paint of buildings after the initial construction. If I is repaired it is done after the damaged or condition is substantial. I guess if it's not broke, don't fix it. As for the rust itself, "Rust can stain your skin (as it will stain clothing, wood, or other surfaces) but there’s nothing inherently harmful in it. Even a wound from a rusty object isn’t necessarily worse than a wound from a non-rusty object (see more below)." ¹ ¹. https://share.upmc.com/2022/08/is-rust-harmful-to-skin/#:~:text=Rust%20does%20not%20cause%20tetanus,soil%20and%20feces%20cause%20tetanus.

    That's because the cover is meant to grab your attention, the spine is meant to help catalog/locate later. This is a marketing tactic.

    Isn’t ‘hungover’ past tense in this context? So shouldn’t it really be the ‘hangover’ cookbook, for cooking during a hangover?

    I actually have made use of this cookbook when writing an article on the best method of getting rid of a hangover (yes of course I personally tested methods) and I can confirm that it is supposed to be used while being hungover and therefore is grammatically correct. Though I don't recall mine having the spelling issue on the front cover.

    I had laser eye surgery, so I have 20/15 vision now, but near vision has more to do with lens rigidity, which increases with age and can't be surgically altered. Reading glasses improve my vision for things up to 5 feet away. I can't read a book even at arms length.

    It's jury rigged if you mean an ad-hoc or temporary construction. Jerry-built if you mean badly made (referring to housing). The former is a nautical term referring to temporary spars and rigging on a sailing vessel, the latter refers to housing put up in a hurry after WWII, oftern by German POWs (Jerries). And I've now had my pedantry fix for the day.

    Yeah, this is weird. I woke up to an email from Citibank saying there was a purchase made on my cc. I looked it up and it was a 0.00 charge by some name I didn't recognize. I called ccc and all they could tell me was that it was related to some physicians group. Had to have a new card issued. This was probably a test charge to see if cc was active and to see if I noticed it. Have all of your cc's set up so that if a purchase was made without a card being present at the store or where ever, you will get an email in regards to this.

    I once had a bank make a $0.01 error when I made a deposit or withdrawal. A few days later I got a letter in the mail, complete with a stamp. Next time I went to the bank they processed a $0.01 withdrawal or deposit (opposite of the mistake) to make things balance properly. I figure it cost them at least $1 to fix it, but federal regulations require them to balance things as accurately as they can.

    "Men's Restroom?" Very progressive if it's meant for people who identify as men but don't have the plumbing. I can see this as a life saver for some of my friends. Otherwise the cynical side of me is picturing this as being part of an anti trans statement. I really need more context.

    Trans or non binary people using this restroom. Or simply straight males with a low income that could grab a few for the ladies at home. Pads and tampons can be expensive for poor people, and few nations decided they should be free. First one, Scotland. A couple of years ago Italy lowered the VAT at 4%, just today raised again at 10%. The washable ones that are advertised as ecologic imo are not, since it takes a lot of soap and water to wash blood away, and dark colors just mean you don't see the stains. Less waste but more pollution...

    Perhaps they intend for the tampons to be put to their original use, which was as a battlefield bullet hole plugger. That would be interesting if that was the case. Unfortunately, it's far more likely (as many have stated here) an anti LGBTQ statement. With an obvious focus on Trans people. Screw them if that's the case. They may need those tampons for their original purpose someday and I won't be sad.

    If you apply a simple homemade filter to your phone camera you can use it as a black light camera that detects some biological traces, fake money and a few other things. A link just as an example that also says With a black light, you can see fluorescence, the radiating glow emitted by certain substances when exposed to ultraviolet light. https://smartphones.gadgethacks.com/how-to/hack-turns-any-phone-into-black-light-0164740/

    I guess the paper or cloth caught fire and scorched the carrot. This can happen when the dish is blocked by something and does not rotate. The waves are directed in just one spot that overheats. In non-rotating ovens it's the microwave generator that rotates

    Some hospital chaplains will stop by for a chat - just a chat - nothing religious unless they are asked. Some patients may have no visitors so the chaplains can play an important role. People who have had serious diagnosis or are facing major surgery may think they don't need a chaplain, yet will chat and in a short time are bringing up fears (yes, some can be of a spiritual nature). On the other hand, if anyone who has a chaplain visit them can always be polite, say thanks for seeing me but I'm not wanting to talk.

    They do this during major charity rides. As in a roll is passed around to everybody. Because they typically have a police escort and are rolling through red lights & such and don't want the red light cameras sending them tickets for an authorized running of it. Pic was taken in September and that's a NY plate. Lots of fundraisers, charity events, and even the 9/11 ride going on at that time, so could be he just forgot to take it off. Or maybe he's headed to/from one charity ride or even in one at the time.

    So what's a motorcycle with a sidecar then? This is also bolt-on accessory kit. In my jurisdiction a motorcycle is defined as "A motor vehicle designed and built to have no more than three wheels with its own power source and be capable of speeds in excess of 30mph under ideal road conditions" A subsection defines an "autocycle" as a vehicle with three wheels and a steering wheel designed with seats rather than requiring the occupants to sit astride the chassis, which this clearly is not.

    I think HTakeover is right if this vehicle is part of a charity or show motorcade. Usually they have an identification number they get when they register in the event. This way they can be identified by authorities but their licence plate number does not end up in pics, social and so on

    The Catholic hospital I worked in many years ago had an arrow pointing East in each room so that if people of Muslim faith were able to pray if they chose to. I am raising my child to be tolerant and respectful to all those who are religious or choose to worship/believe. If, as my child grows, decides not to be religious, that's ok, as long as there is respect and tolerance for other faiths and religions.

    I am not religious and I don't pray but all I have to say for this is bravo. It is important to a lot of people.

    Maybe owned by Muslims or in a Muslim neighborhood. Very useful and respectful since usually there are few mosques and Muslims must pray at determined hours. Praying is much easier for Catholics or Jews since they usually go at their ease to services that don't are connected to particular hours. Even more useful if in a cold or rainy place. I've seen photos of large groups of Muslim persons praying in the middle of sidewalks or in open air spaces

    Funny how non-believers are constantly admonished to be "tolerant" of really intolerant people. It's all the religious zealots who need to learn to respect other, different people.

    This is ridiculous. If they want to accomodate religious people they could find a separate space for that. Changing rooms in clothes stores are for changing, not for practising religion ffs.
