I'm not an MD but do you need any help in Hungarian? or with strap-ons?

Just amputate.

Always, always amputate.

 

[HeyAll]

Try BardAI or ChatGPT

At this point, you'd be crazy not to.

Always, always amputate.

Nuke it from orbit, it's the only way to be sure.

There is a difference between using it to write the passage and using it to ask questions/help worldbuild.

ChatGPT is an amazing name generator for things.

First, don't amputate, despite what people are telling you. Second, if you inject stem cells into the dislocation point, you can grow a third arm. Water it every day until it's firmly set.

It' s a weird trick They don't want you to know about.

Make up a procedure name “The Stephen Kenneth Bypass” and when they ask that procedure that is you say: “the right one”

Hand wave all day:

Yup. Fake it till you make it.

I mean, if it worked for Dan Brown, why wouldn't it work for erotica?

Bump.

I’m still looking for an MD, LPN, etc for a story background question WRT emergency medicine.

(Not that I don’t appreciate the same sort of humorous comments I myself might have made.)

Thanks.

I see a little silhouetto of a man, dip and sploosh, dip and sploosh, can we do the Fanfango?

Seeing as you didn't get any responses, I'm wondering what you want to know?

Having been on the receiving end and also having reduced other people's shoulders (I have a bunch of hypermobile friends), the routine is usually "take these painkillers, deep breaths while I shove, right, now fuck off." Only if it's the fifth dislocation that year does anything else happen, IME.

 

[TarnishedPenny]

Issue resolved. Thanks, all.

Issue resolved. Thanks, all.

Did it involve rotating the straightened arm, moving the thumb outward, putting a foot into the armpit to lever the ball against the tension of the muscles and in it pops?
I'm recalling a chat with a medic

 

[TarnishedPenny]

Somewhat different, but to s9me degree. Thanks.
