    I got certified 6 months ago. They still (in the US) recommend 2 breaths every 30 compressions. For 2 people, one person manages the AED, and the other does CPR and you switch every 2 cycles, or whenever one person is too tired to continue.

    Point is moot, you probably don’t have enough mass, or lung volume to compress the chest and inflate the lungs on a giraffe.

    My wife was worried about raccoons around the dumpster, and I told her I classify animals into 2 threat levels. Puntable, and non-puntable. If you can punt it, you don’t need to be afraid of it. Raccoons, small dogs, even geese, all fit in this category. If you can’t punt it, then you need to be wary of it, so moose, mountain-lion, irukandji, best to keep your distance.

    It’s excellent. Easily worth the 40 or so bucks. The community is pretty solid, although there are a lot of whiners who complain non-stop about how they can’t solo the hardest objectives on the toughest difficulty in a game designed around 4 person co-op. Honestly, the dev has been doing a great job of making all the tools viable and rewarding under the right circumstances. I find myself trying to equip for the mission and my team instead of just take “the best meta loadout”.

    I don’t sit around thinking about microplastics. Microplastics are something to worry about when you are making purchases, but not something you can realistically worry about while living the rest of your life.

    Most of your microplastics aren’t coming from your tide pods anyway. They actually come from plastic fibers in your clothing that get abraded in your washer and dryer.

    What can you do about it? Try to use glass, metal and ceramic cookware. Avoid teflon cookware. Purchase clothing that has all natural fibers. Avoid facial scrubs that have micro beads, although those have been banned pretty much every in the US in the last decade.

    At the end of the day, I worry about microplastics about as much as I worry about irradiated iodine from nuclear bomb tests.
