Jennifer<p>Today went out to an Alabama cave preserve my husband manages and put up some new signs at the parking area then hiked around to look at the cave entrances. One entrance with a waterfall was really nice. There's a 400+ foot pit not too far inside. We ran into some guys who had just rappelled to the bottom and climbed back up. <a href="https://m.ai6yr.org/tags/Caving" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Caving</span></a> <a href="https://m.ai6yr.org/tags/Hiking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Hiking</span></a></p>

Sunguramy :nb_lily:<p>Happy Valentine's Day from a gypsum heart in a cave.</p><p>Speaking of hearts, let's have some Real Talk! About hearts! Today I re-certified in CPR &amp; First Aid. Did you know that socialized as female folk are far more likely to die from a heart attack / cardiac event than men? It's true! A large cause of this is due to the fact that symptoms are often not as-seen-on-TV; instead being brushed off as nausea, acid reflux, or indigestion. And what do we do when we feel ick? We go to the bathroom. So when we collapse, no one is around to see, much less administer CPR. So: check on your friends who disappear to the bathroom for a long time!</p><p>Sadly, there is also a huge disparity between races in survival as well. Not only does lack of medical access and environment &amp; social factors mean there is higher risk (systematic racism), but overt racism also prevents bystanders from stepping in to help. Black &amp; Latinx people suffer the most. (<a href="https://newsroom.heart.org/news/cardiovascular-health-risks-continue-to-grow-within-black-communities-action-needed" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">newsroom.heart.org/news/cardio</span><span class="invisible">vascular-health-risks-continue-to-grow-within-black-communities-action-needed</span></a>)</p><p>CPR is not that difficult! It is more the mental challenge of being prepared to step in and help. If you can't get to a class (hands on with the training manikins is certainly recommended if you can!) still learn about it. All 50 states have Good Samaritan laws. </p><p>I personally know two people who are alive thanks to a normal everyday person knowing CPR, and intervening. This is community building, y'all! Take care of each other out there.</p><p>Some additional tips:<br>1. If someone has a medical emergency and you end up leading the way, always point and directly tell people what to do (ex: you in the blue shirt *pointing at them* call 911). If you just shout things, people will not jump into action. Be specific &amp; direct.</p><p>2. Always check for a pulse on the same side you are kneeling on, you don't want to reach across their neck. </p><p>3. If there are enough people, direct folk not involved in helping to form a circle looking *out*. This gives some privacy, very important in these days of cell phone cameras and the fact that say, once the AED shows up, their chest will be made bare. Help protect the patient's privacy!</p><p>4. Good Samaritan laws generally have caveats such as never accept anything as a thank you (not even flowers, *nothing*) and stay with the person until someone of equal or greater training arrives. So if you say, start CPR then just get tired and stop with no one equal or higher taking over, then you are liable. </p><p><a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/heart" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>heart</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/love" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>love</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/valentine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>valentine</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/cpr" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cpr</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/firstAid" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>firstAid</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/care" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>care</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/community" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>community</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/geology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>geology</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/cave" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cave</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/caves" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>caves</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/caving" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>caving</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/gypsum" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>gypsum</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/rock" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>rock</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/crystal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>crystal</span></a></p>

I was just climbing along and all of a sudden heard them singing below...I asked them to sing again after I got my camera out to record it!</p><p><a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/singing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>singing</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/song" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>song</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/cave" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cave</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/caves" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>caves</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/caving" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>caving</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/nature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nature</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/fun" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fun</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/joy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>joy</span></a></p>

Sunguramy :nb_lily:<p>:boost_requested: <br>update: I got the bill covered for my pup. I am leaving this up in case anyone wants to purchase anything else; I always have and will continue to share to other's mutual aids when I have extra, so even if I don't need it, someone who needs it will get it. And you get cool art then! From an actual person! No AI here!</p><p>Well since I could use some money now, the whole scientist-without-funding-now thing thanks to stupid executive orders, I got out my prints I have from back when I did art shows and maybe people will...buy some? :) I can sign them if you like. I can also drop ship prints of any of my photography, just DM to ask! It would be nice if I could at least make a couple hundred as my dog had another seizure and I have bills to pay.</p><p>To not "spam" ya'll I am going to post each as a reply to this. So, you can just mute this thread if you don't want to see.</p><p>Please reply with DM on the photo you'd like to purchase, I can send an invoice to pay. Shipping will be about $10 within the US, $20-$50 for outside the US.</p><p><a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/science" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>science</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/art" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>art</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/photography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>photography</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/cave" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cave</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/caves" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>caves</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/caving" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>caving</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/nature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nature</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/artwork" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>artwork</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/biology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>biology</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/geology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>geology</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/dog" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dog</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/dogsOfMastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dogsOfMastodon</span></a></p>
