Agreed with Jessica blaze.
Tacos every day!
Not enough soap in your pool.
Donjuanme@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•I learnt to swim! Efficient swimming techniques ?41·5 days agoCnidaria (jelly fish and anemone’s) stings on your skin are usually nothing, if you ever want to swim with jellyfish a pair of nylons over your exposed body is generally enough to keep you from being stung, but whatever you do don’t put your tongue (or other sensitive parts) to one, because the toxin can totally mess you up (generally just major swelling like the worst bee sting you’ve ever seen, but swelling could always lead to other problems). Some of the most potent venoms on the planet are secreted by the cnidaria, but there will definitely be (actual) signs warning you away from areas they exist in.
Donjuanme@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•I learnt to swim! Efficient swimming techniques ?17·5 days agoI’d say the butterfly is the most energy intensive way to swim, and dead man’s float is the least energy intense.
Swimming is the best exercise you’ll ever do, and you should be able to do it for most of your life. You can do it to get ripped, you can do it to rehab.
The 2 most important things when swimming are: don’t get overconfident, and don’t mess around with safety. The ocean absolutely doesn’t care about you, and it’s amazing how little it’ll take to become disoriented. Never swim halfway past where you can’t see the shore, and never swim more than halfway past the longest you’ve swam before.
Saltwater is generally fine if there are no nasty organisms in your neighborhood, but fresh water swimming can kill you if the water is stagnant or polluted.
If you’re looking to swim for exercise or fitness my biggest recommendation (after goggles) is get yourself a speedo/teva suit (if you don’t want a banana hammock get the thigh length shorts), you’ll be amazed how much further you move per stroke and how much less energy it takes to go from a to b.
As I’ve said in another reply, the most efficient stroke with easy breathing is probably the backwards frog, it’s very easy to learn, just pulse like a jelly fish while keeping a bit of your face out of the water.
I’m glad you had a great experience and you’re looking to continue practicing! Knowing even the basics can be life changing.
If you ever find yourself under water and can’t tell which way is up (this can happen surprisingly easy), follow your bubbles, bubbles always go up
Donjuanme@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•I learnt to swim! Efficient swimming techniques ?2·5 days agoLife guards will always have a floatation device with them, it’s incredibly energy intense to egg beater with any amount more than your head out of the water, let alone trying to hold another person up. I’ve convinced many people that the hardest/most energy intense thing you can do in the pool is to get hands and elbows dry without touching the bottom.
But once you learn the technique, keeping your head out of the water is almost 0 effort. But nothing is less effort than having a flotation device!
Donjuanme@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•I learnt to swim! Efficient swimming techniques ?8·5 days agoBack frog is the easiest for breathing, but if you’re trying to get anywhere efficiently the crawl is the fastest and easiest to breathe with
Get yourself a pair of goggles, nobody should take the brunt of the ocean directly to their eyes. If you’re interested in the ocean get a half mask that covers your eyes and nose, and honestly you can find a cheap snorkel as well and you don’t need to worry much about breathing at all.
Please be aware of local beach conditions, if there’s a spot that says don’t swim it’s not worth the risk, even if it looks calm, hell especially if it looks calm.
Donjuanme@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Appeals court tosses judge's contempt finding against Trump administration in prison deportations48·6 days agoIs this the same 3 judge panel taken at random for the 11 judges on the circuit, that has for the last 6 months always had the furthest right judges randomly assigned to it?
Read the article and yes, yes it is. July was the first month neither of those 2 appeared in the emergency review panel, and now they’re back.
It’s so fucking corrupt, I’m not sure why nobody from the media has covered this.

I wonder if they’re working on targeting that’ll avoid those stupid things.

Donjuanme@lemmy.worldto Ask Science@lemmy.world•Has the afterlife already been disproven?English321·8 days agoYou’re asking for proof of a negative, anyone who argues one way or another, especially someone who tries to get you to believe they have the answers, is full of ****, and likely trying to take advantage of you, either knowingly or unknowingly.
Donjuanme@lemmy.worldto Unpopular Opinion@lemmy.world•The USA is largely filled with emotionally reactive morons. English1·16 days agoOpinion?
Absolutely the biggest difference I noticed going on a weight loss injection (monjarno I believe), I still feel a bit hungry when I don’t eat, but my personality doesn’t change and I’m a lot less stressed about being hungry.
It changed my perspective on how my body responds to hunger. I can still easily allow myself to over eat, but I can just as easily go all day without a meal and not be cranky about it.

I’d imagine there are a handful of elements that are much easier to do this with without gold being the final destination and are therefore less appealing to the headline machine.
You have to consider they only have 2 or 3 walls, and usually no ceiling. Very rarely do they ever acknowledge the Fourth wall.
Any body else thinking this Nazi wants to be a king?
