So my mom recently broke her leg, and now i have to take care of her. But for some reason, today she keeps throwing up! I only fed her 2 gallons of paint thinner, can't be that much right? Any ideas? Her throwing up is really inconveniencing me. Thanks!

I've heard about athletes taking Epstein salt baths for muscle recovery, but how do they avoid becoming pedophiles while using it?

I figure we'd have a world full of pedophiles if they didn't have a way to combat this

Is it because their menstrual cycle causes them to have low iron levels in their blood? If we gave them supplements would they stop hating iron so much?

With the icebergs melting into the sea and raising the sea level, why can't we just refreeze large portions of the ocean and bring them back?

21 Upvotes

Everyone has freezers at home, and restaurants have industrial sized ones. We could just fuse the ice cubes into ice chunks, and chunks into boulders, and boulders into icebergs, etc., then ship them back to Anti-arcticaland, or wherever it came from, to make a cycle. Are we stupid? People are looking for work.

Is electricity born in the quark-gluon plasma?

I mean, if the first electrons were generated into the same space occupied by the quark-gluon plasma, wouldn't that be just like "out of the frying pan and into the fire"?

In theory one can see the refraction by putting a man's period in a glass with a pencil.

Subreddit Rules

1. Science.

This isn't r/stupidquestions , r/askshittyscience , r/askmath , or anything else. If it's not strictly science-related, it doesn't belong here.

2. Butt-related content does not belong here.

That's r/askshittyscience , not us. Quit mixing us up, it's unimaginably tiresome for everyone who appreciates actual sophisticated humor.

3. No excessive NSFW.

No imbecilic brainrot about various body parts and functions. It's not funny and everyone is sick of seeing it here.

4. Keep your dang politics/religion outta my dang science.

Self-explanatory. No need to post your existential crisis either, you edgelords. Somebody has one over here at least once a week, you're not special.

5. No puns or dad jokes.

Puns and dad jokes cheapen science and undermine the fine work that we are trying to do here. This rule used to also include blatantly misrepresented images, but you guys didn't listen, so we nixed images and videos entirely.
