Advancements in Transplant Technology: What the Future Holds

The field of organ transplantation is witnessing remarkable advancements, promising a future where the challenges of organ shortages and transplant rejections are significantly reduced. As a leading organ donation NGO, we’re excited to explore these innovations and their potential to save more lives. With ongoing support from crowdfunding for organ transplants and collaborative efforts with other transplant organizations, the horizon looks promising. Let’s delve into what the future holds for transplant technology.

Bioprinting: A Leap into the Future

One of the most thrilling advancements in transplant technology is bioprinting. Researchers can now create 3D-printed organs using a patient’s cells. This innovation promises a future with an unlimited supply of organs and significantly decreases the risk of transplant rejection. For organ donation NGOs, this means advocating for and investing in research that could eventually eliminate waiting lists for transplants.

Gene Editing: Precision and Promise

CRISPR and other gene-editing technologies are poised to transform organ transplantation. By correcting genetic defects in donor organs, transplant organizations can ensure better compatibility and longer-lasting transplant success rates. This precision medicine approach could dramatically improve patient outcomes while decreasing long-term healthcare costs.

Xenotransplantation: Crossing Species Barriers

With the recent successful pig heart transplant into a human patient, xenotransplantation has received renewed interest. This process, where organ transplants from one species into another, could significantly expand the donor pool. For NGOs focused on organ donation, supporting xenotransplantation research means engaging in ethical debates and ensuring that public and regulatory acceptance keeps pace with scientific breakthroughs.

Artificial Organs: Beyond Nature’s Design

The development of artificial organs is another area where technology is set to change the landscape of organ transplants. Devices such as the artificial pancreas and bioartificial kidneys are already in advanced stages of testing. These devices offer a dual benefit: providing life-saving support and bridging the time until a biological organ becomes available.

Crowdfunding: Empowering Patients and Research

Crowdfunding for organ transplants has emerged as a critical tool in democratizing access to medical care. Platforms dedicated to healthcare make it possible for patients to afford these life-saving procedures when insurance and personal funds fall short. For an organ donation NGO, guiding patients and their families through the crowdfunding process is essential, helping them navigate financial challenges while awaiting transplants.

Collaborative Efforts: The Role of Transplant Organizations

The role of transplant organizations in advancing these technologies cannot be understated. By fostering collaboration between researchers, clinicians, and policymakers, these organizations help streamline the adoption of new technologies in clinical settings. Moreover, they play a pivotal role in training medical professionals on the latest advancements, ensuring that the benefits of technology reach patients across the globe.

Conclusion: A Brighter Future Awaits

The future of transplant technology holds incredible promise for those in need of life-saving organ transplants. As a dedicated organ donation NGO, our commitment to supporting cutting-edge research, advocating for ethical policies, and assisting patients through crowdfunding for organ transplants remains more vital than ever. By working with transplant organizations and embracing these technological advancements, we move closer to a future where organ shortages are a thing of the past.

By staying informed and involved, you can contribute to this exciting future. Whether you support crowdfunding initiatives, volunteer with a transplant organization, or register as a donor, your actions can make a life-saving difference.

when I went to the dmv they asked me if I wanted to be an organ donor and I was like "yeah sure" and the lady was like "you don't sound too excited?" and I was like "well I will be dead . so whether or not my organs will be taken won't matter to me ill be dead" and I definitely got weird looks

#yes people should become organ donors thats very important. i dont care what people'll do with my organs after i die because i will be dead #like ig that's morbid ???? but that's just how organ donation works

[dawningfairytale]

here’s my theory: ocean originally started the choir for constance

i will elaborate

i think that constance has always loved performing and the performing arts: acting, singing, dancing. outside the mind-control death scenario and the choir, we don’t really see two of those. however, in the 2016 production, she plays the part of mary in the school’s nativity play (this is when noel breaks into waiting for godot). she tries to steer it back on track while staying in character, and while this could be her “being a good girl” in part, i think it’s also her wanting to stay in the role. this is something she cares about and, while she’s don’t stupid, this matters to her more than school.

additionally, i think the way that sugar cloud is staged like a concert (particularly in the part where the choir sings “i used to think that life was just a jawbreaker” and she has that belty ad-lib) also adds to this idea of a desire to perform. plus her presenting the song the choir performs before each intro number, rather than ocean. sure, ocean presents the choir, but constance introduces the song itself.

so, from this, i believe that constance has an interest in the performing arts. as a result, i like to think that ocean thought “two birds, one stone” in making a club that could make her friend happy and having something to put on college applications (presuming canadian college apps are the same as those from the us). so, she starts up the st cassian’s chamber choir and upop (from later editions of the show).

but, even with the best intentions, ocean starts to overshadow constance. part of it is accidental, it isn’t her fault that most satb arrangements are written to highlight the soprano. she only wanted to be a leader, and constance just wanted to be involved. ocean, mostly unintentionally, starts to belittle constance’s ideas.

i think this might be why they have such a fractured relationship during the show. is it possible that a lot of little things created tension between them in the “you punched me in the fricking boob” scene? definitely. however, i think it’s possible that they had a fight on the day of the fall fair. ocean paraded around the victory she lead them to, kept talking about how she was the queen of the choir. and while constance didn’t confront her, she was a lot more… distant. maybe even a little snide. ocean could hear that something was a little off with her, but she couldn’t place what, and she definitely didn’t think it wasn’t her fault. constance still sat next to her on the cyclone, ocean doing another thing for constance.

and then they died. both blaming the other for their misfortune. not knowing what was really going on in the other’s brain. but this story has a happy ending, or maybe it’s bittersweet. you’ve seen the show, you know how it goes. there is no other way this story could end.

#rtc #ride the cyclone #constance blackwood #ocean o'connell rosenberg #blackrose rtc #blackrose #this is just my theory on why they’re Like That #and i feel like ocean believing constance can only pursue stuff bc of her leads to the: #‘you just told your best friend her greatest achievement in life would be to become an organ donor’ line from noel #ocean believes she’s almost. constance’s knight in shining armour? #like with the ‘she serves me coke and a medium fries’ she thinks that without her constance will be stuck in the service industry #not that that isn’t valuable - bc it is!!! - but ocean thinks it isn’t and therefore that constance can do better #but not if she’s doing it alone #anyway!!! that’s my constance stuff #this is scheduled hopefully im asleep when this goes up

btw once trans women are getting womb transplants, they'll be on the transplant meds for the rest of their lives anyway, SO we might as well start a wave of tit donations as well. every trans woman gets a trans man partner who donates their unwanted breasts+uteri XD

#the “no swapping tits” rule came about becuz you dont wanna become the recipient of an organ donor for a cosmetic procedure #that can be replicated without them #but if we're already donating organs. all bets off babeyyyy

[letsoulswander]

Started watching the movie "2 hearts" today, hoping it would be cool and interesting, and turned it off before bacardi boy could propose bc the writing and setup is just too, too bad to be worth watching

#i googled the story to see if i should finish it #the plot twist is.... the young man is also in love and then he dies and becomes an organ donor #that's literally it...... #hey did you know organ donors are people? why yes shitty netflx movie i did know that #the acting is bad also. the writer tries to make it look like wow what a coincidence but it is the habit of organ donors to be healthy ppl #who live lives until they abruptly die #so.... #improving

[tlaquetzqui]

Having your harem protagonist have sex with several of the other girls before picking the “true” heroine is just gross. Either he keeps it in his pants till he picks or you bite the bullet, let your freak flag fly, and go with the polygamy ending. No half measures.

#bad writing #they had to add the quasielemental plane of salt back to the inner planes just for me #it's just fucking mean for some of these girls we've spent so much time with to be used and tossed aside #i was reading one of those 'troubled rich boy has to pick a marriage candidate' seinen manga #an epilogue where the sweet bubbly girl becomes a PROSTITUTE? how about one where the author becomes an organ donor—same-day collection!

DP X DC: Dani Does Things and Leaves, Explains Nothing

Heavily inspired by this dp x dc prompt and the comments and reblogs under it:

Please go check it out and @stealingyourbones entire page. They have some great dp x dc content and meta.

Local Ghost Princess Decides to Help Out Fellow Clone, Leaves Chaos Behind, Heroes Left Concerned and Very Confused, More at 10.

Now Dani knew that this world had superheroes. She knew they had an organization of sorts that had a hate-hate relationship with various government entities and a love-hate relationship with the public, depending on who you asked. However she had no intention of being involved with them. She was on vacation after all. Besides this world was just a stopover anyway. Why bother when she wasn't here on official business? But it seemed that while she didn't want anything to do with the heroes, they, however inadvertently, wanted something to do with her. How else will you explain one of the worst cloning results she had ever seen crash into a tree right in front of her while she was enjoying a nice cup of litchi boba tea in the park?

The botched clone job slid down the branches and hit the ground with a thud. She raised an eyebrow at the the rampant malevolent magical lines running through the body exacerbating the overall instability of the clone's anatomy. Clearly this individual had run into an irate mage who cast some sort of destabilizing curse and shot them right out of the sky. Dani was thankful this was an isolated section of the park and that she had put a rudimentary avoidance ward over the area. Otherwise, a superhero crashing into a tree would've caused quite the ruckus and interrupted her boba time.

She took a sip of her boba and crouched down to examine the conked out hero. This one was the one they called Superboy wasn't he? She grimaced at the state of his engineering. Whoever did his cloning did not know what they were dealing with. Her own cloning went better and she was ectoplasmic goop half the time. And Vlad was dealing with halfa DNA! Probably the most complicated genetic material in existence. Superboy over here was constructed from actual tangible genetic sources and yet...ugh.

Honestly speaking beings of this plane probably wouldn't have noticed anything wrong. A level down in power scale compared to the individual who acted as genetic donor, most likely that Superman guy, and random instances of destabilization would most likely be the extend of their knowledge regarding their faulty cloning. And when those instances of instability gradually ironed themselves out they probably patted themselves on the back and thought all was well. She should cut them some slack.

Dani hummed as she chewed on her boba pearls. Unfortunately she wasn't known to be the most merciful when it came to ensuring the well-being of clones.

Suckers probably didn't pick up the fact they unleashed a possible catastrophe upon their world. Superboy was obviously fashioned from Kryptonian DNA. A species known for becoming near godlike upon absorbing solar energy from a yellow sun. That means that their bodies have mechanisms at play beyond simple biology. Specifically energy pathways and an energy processing core. Superboy wasn't a level down in power from Superman because of some biological imperfection, he was weaker because of flawed energy absorption and storage. And that meant that his energy core was unbalanced, and once it reached a particular threshold...well its gonna be a spectacular light show this side of the galaxy that's for sure. Of course it was just a possibility. There was no guarantee he would reach that threshold in his lifetime. Unless he ran into a white mage who was vicious enough to cast a juiced up imbalance curse that is. And what do you know! Turns out you can organically be that unlucky!

She put down her cup and ran a simple diagnostics. Sure enough the magic had intensified the issue. This man needed help, the kind of help that wasn't usually available in this part of the omniverse. But she just so happened to pass by and just so happened to have expertise in this field so today was somehow simultaneously Superboy's lucky and unlucky day. He really was going through it.

As to why she would interfere that's easy. She was the Guardian of Cloned Beings after all. She can't have a fellow clone suffer could she? And plus, what were the chances that he would end up like this right in front of one of the only beings that would know how to fix the issue? Dani grinned in glee. Truly the laws of causality worked in intriguing ways.

She stood up and let her talons manifest, plucking the strings of SuperboyConnerKon-el's make and striking them one by one in the tune of an old Krytonian melody. Shame what happened to them really, but all things had their fate. It truly was great to see some of them survive and make a home elsewhere. Dani wished them the best.

As she worked, untangling knots, and straightening out blockages, the hero finally began to stir. His eyes opened and they were understandably unfocused. Disoriented and confused, he looked kinda like a bamboozled Cujo and Dani felt her lips twitch up in a toothy smile. For some reason that seemed to startle him. She mentally frowned. Did he expect her not to smile at him? That would've been rude of her. Dani might be a gremlin but she was never impolite.

"I'm just about done with the curse", she told him. "Leaching out the corrosive magic was easy but I need to repair your energy coils and that's tricky. Don't worry though. Everything's on the house. Always did have a soft spot for the House of El ever since my aunt married into it for a short while."

Dani pulled a particularly stubborn power node open. "I would like your permission before doing that through. Body autonomy, informed decisions and and all! So yes or no? You'd detonate like a bomb if I didn't though."

The young hero's eyes widened. He still didn't seem to know what was going on so she hit him with a short term clarity spell. And a small information spell to cover her bases. That got him to gather his wits enough and she watched as he processed the influx of information. His complexion was ashen when he got through the bundle and he finally managed a shaky nod. Good enough.

Dani smiled at the Kryptonian. "Great! Now this would take like twenty minutes give or take five. You can sleep now." She promptly knocked him out cold and cancelled the spells so as to not overload his brain.

And just as she predicted, twenty minutes later, she plucked the last string with a flick of her wrist and surveyed her handiwork. Exemplary if she said so herself. One of her best work! Cheerfully she shot an awakening spell at Kon-el and crouched down again, patting his head.

"You might need to be careful for a few days while your body adjusts to its new energy capacity and conductivity. Your overall system has been optimized as well so be careful", she told the groggy young man.

She paused. "And don't worry. I didn't access your mind. This was all strictly physical repair aimed at preventing you from exploding like a supernova and taking the planet with you."

And once again that part made his eyes widen. Good. He truly understood the urgency. Or that could just be him being loopy after solar energy overload. It was a bright, sunny day after all.

She stood up, creating a portal to the next world on her itinerary. She looked back at the most likely high as a kite Kryptonian. "You kinda owe me for all that extra work hero! I might just come to collect one of these days!", she joked as the portal swallowed her body and she was lost to the spaces between spaces.

She'd already told him it was all on the house so Dani didn't think that anyone would take that last part seriously. However she forgot the fact that one Conner Kent was in her own words 'high as a kite' and hence might miss some crucial details.

She also forgot to leave behind an explanation packet.

And thus she was utterly unaware of the chaos she left in her wake, happily traveling through the multiverse.

..............................................................................................................................

"So you're telling me that not only did someone find me when I was out cold and get rid of the spell, but they also rearranged my guts and gave me an upgrade?"

"...Yeah."

"What the fuck?"

..............................................................................................................................

"Conner, do you remember anything? Anything at all? Whatever they did required some serious magical power. We don't know why they did it or how. For all we know they could've done something dangerous that we can't detect yet."

"Litchi boba tea".

"Kon what the hell?"

..............................................................................................................................

"...Its in bits and pieces...but I'm pretty sure there was a woman?...white hair, green eyes...something something on the house...something about an aunt and the House of El?...and there was this strange white symbol on her chest and this really soft music was playing that went something like this...(confused humming noises)...and something about me owing her?"

"Kara? Why are you looking at me like that? What's wrong?"

..............................................................................................................................

"Let me get this straight, Superboy was healed by the Kryptonian primordial goddess of portals, messengers, travelers and other such domains, and not only did she save him but also gave him a tune up? And explicitly said that he owes her now? And this powerful divine being, who is also supposed to be the daughter of Krypton's Death God according to legends mind you, is most likely still on earth with motives unknown? Plus your entire House is descended from her family?"

"...Yeah that about sums it up."

"..."

..............................................................................................................................

"Oh man why did this happen just when I was going to go on vacation? Why couldn't the Death God or whatever reschedule?"

"Death gods notoriously don't reschedule, they're death gods. Also she's the daughter of a death god, not one herself. Most death gods are also famously fair. If not fair by our standards, fair by theirs".

"...That's good to know?"

"I confess I don't know about the fairness of children of death gods however".

"...great. Thanks anyway J'onn".

"You're welcome".

..............................................................................................................................

"You okay there man? Someone just rifled through your body and did who knows what...that's gotta be terrifying. You want to talk? We're all here for you, you know that right?"

" Thanks guys. And yeah it was freaky. But apparently I would've exploded and blown up the planet with me if she didn't do that so I guess I'm more grateful than scared."

"...Explode and blown up the what now?"

..............................................................................................................................

"Is there anything more we should know about Clark?"

"Legends say she has a brother and he's associated with great calamities?"

"...."

"Bruce? You alright?"

..............................................................................................................................

DPXDC refuses to be done with me. Leave me be accursed crossover! Leave me be!

(Btw Kon didn't make the connection because he was really out of it, and not because Clark and Kara didn't introduce him to Kryptonian culture.)

Thoughts and suggestions are welcome!

Sujood has reached out to me to boost she and Sanaa’s fundraiser. They’re urgently trying to evacuate their family from Gaza and seek asylum in Belgium. Their previous campaign was suspended, so they have started a new GFM and currently have £1,642 out of their £50,000 goal! Please share if you can’t donate!

From their GFM page:

Dear friends,

We are reaching out to you with a heartfelt plea for help. Our names are Sanaa and Sujood, and we find ourselves in an incredibly challenging and dangerous situation.

Unfortunately, our previous attempt to receive donations was unsuccessful due to restrictions on transactions to Gaza. However, the urgency of our circumstances compels us to reach out again, this time with new procedures in place to ensure the secure delivery of your generous contributions. We are launching a new campaign because we cannot afford to wait for a long time for the restrictions on the bank account to be lifted it’s already being two months now. We are unsure if we will be able to access the funds or if they will be returned to the donors. In any case, here in Gaza, we are fighting against time. Every day poses a threat to our safety, and we cannot afford to wait. If, after some time, we are able to retrieve the previous amount, we will use it to rebuild our lives and continue the education of my siblings.

The situation in Gaza has become increasingly unbearable, and we have been left with no choice but to seek assistance from compassionate individuals like you. Your donations can make a significant difference in our lives and help us escape the dire circumstances we currently face.

This is ours story:

I hope this message finds you in good health and spirits.

My name is Sanaa Odeh, currently in Gaza, occupied Palestine. I am writing this as a plea for survival, for a future for my family and myself.

Our lives are in immediate danger, with non stop explosions everyday and every night, tanks and guns all around us, and fear as a constant companion. It is a non-stop nightmare, every minute of every day, for 6 months. Everyday is a struggle for survival. Lack of food and clean water creating a crisis of death by starvation and dehydration.

Despite the endless nightmare, we are a resilient and strong family. My beautiful parents gave everything to raise us as successful daughters and we are so proud of what we have achieved.

I work as a graphic designer and my sisters: a nurse/educator, small business owner, a medical student, and a field coordinator. Despite being on the path to rich and promising futures, it can all be taken away in any moment. We have already lost several family members, including my uncles and their entire family. There is little hope that the situation will end soon, all of us waiting for our turn next.

We are looking to seek asylum in Belgium. This campaign will help support us in covering the costs to do so, specifically in covering the evacuation costs per person. Your donation will provide us with the chance to escape the endless horror we’ve been facing for the last 6 months and give us a chance to return to a safe, normal life again, where we can once again contribute positively to society.

I understand that this is a challenging time for everyone right now, but please do not underestimate what even £5 can contribute to especially when it all adds up. It really does make a huge difference. No matter how small the contribution it can still change our entire lives.

Thank you for taking the time to read our story, your support means the world to us. Whether it is simply sharing our campaign or donating, it makes all the difference in the world to us. Your act of kindness can bring light to our darkest days and help us build a better future.

Thank you once again for all your support and kindness

With heartfelt gratitude,

Sanaa and Sujood

Organ Donation and You: Addressing the Organ Shortage Crisis

The scarcity of organs for transplantation is a critical issue worldwide, and nowhere is this more pronounced than in bustling metropolises like Mumbai. However, amidst this crisis, there lies an opportunity for every individual to make a profound impact through organ donation. In Mumbai and across the globe, transplant organizations dedicated to liver transplants play a pivotal role in addressing this challenge.

The Organ Shortage Dilemma: A Global Concern

The demand for organs far exceeds the available supply, creating a dire shortage that affects individuals awaiting life-saving transplants. The reasons are manifold - from misconceptions about organ donation to legal and logistical challenges. As a result, countless lives are in limbo, with the hope of a transplant hanging in the balance.

The Role of Transplant Organizations in Mumbai: Bridging the Gap

Transplant organizations in Mumbai are at the forefront of efforts to bridge the organ shortage gap. These organizations work tirelessly to educate the public about organ donation, dispelling myths and encouraging individuals to register as donors. They also play a crucial role in coordinating the complex process of organ procurement, ensuring that organs are safely and swiftly transported from donors to recipients.

Organ Donation: A Gift of Life

Organ donation is an act of unparalleled generosity, a gift of life that can transform the narrative for someone grappling with organ failure. Whether it's the donation of a kidney, liver, heart, or other organs, each contribution has the potential to be a lifeline for those in desperate need. In Mumbai, where the pulse of life beats vibrantly, the gift of an organ can mean the difference between life and death.

The Role of NGOs in Facilitating Liver Transplants: A Holistic Approach

Explicitly focusing on liver transplants, NGOs play a critical role in Mumbai and beyond. These organizations often go beyond just facilitating transplants; they provide comprehensive support to patients and their families. From financial assistance to emotional counseling, NGOs create a holistic ecosystem that addresses the multifaceted challenges associated with organ transplantation.

Breaking Stigmas: Education and Awareness

A significant barrier to organ donation is the prevalence of myths and misconceptions. Transplant organizations and supporting NGOs conduct extensive awareness campaigns to debunk these myths. They educate the public about organ donation's ethical, legal, and medical aspects, fostering a culture where donation is viewed as a noble and socially responsible act.

Your Role in Mitigating the Crisis: Register as an Organ Donor

The crux of addressing the organ shortage crisis lies in individual choices. Anyone can be a hero by registering as an organ donor. In Mumbai and globally, the impact of a single registration can reverberate through communities. Transplant organizations work with NGOs to simplify registration, making it accessible to all.

Supporting NGOs: A Catalyst for Change

Supporting NGOs involved in liver transplants and organ donation is instrumental in effecting lasting change. These organizations provide financial aid and create a network of support for patients and their families. By contributing to these NGOs, individuals can actively participate in the collective effort to alleviate the organ shortage crisis.

Conclusion:

The organ shortage crisis demands a collective response. In Mumbai, where the heartbeat of a vibrant city mirrors the pulse of life, the need for organs is acute. Transplant organizations and NGOs work tirelessly, but their efforts are amplified when individuals join the cause. Registering as an organ donor, dispelling myths, and supporting NGOs can collectively transform the organ shortage narrative. Each person has the power to be a beacon of hope, contributing to a future where organs are available to all who need them.

what this has taught me though is a lot of yall’s pro-choice arguments are not that ideologically sound, or at least don’t get to the heart of the argument. i know there are a lot of common abortion arguments that we like to default to, and none of these are wholly original arguments on either side, but i can’t emphasize enough the process of thinking deeply about these common arguments and understanding what the actual warrant for the claim is.

for example, if you say “a fetus is not a person.” and then the person you’re arguing with says, “it’s a literal human being,” and instead of refuting why the fetus does not have “personhood” in the legal sense and then making a broader philosophical claim that we shouldn’t view a fetus as a person, switching to the argument “okay even if it is a person it doesn’t matter because no person can be forced to be an organ donor even if the other person will die otherwise etc.”…. kind of makes you look like you don’t know what you’re talking about and are conceding that a fetus is a person.

similarly, if someone says “okay but there’s a difference between a nonaction (organ donation) and an action (abortion), there is no moral justification to abort because if the pregnancy progresses naturally the fetus will become a baby”… the crux of that argument isn’t answered by making a convoluted scenario (i haven’t seen it used in this particular argument but i’ve seen it in other context) where “ok someone connected all your vitals to a dude on life support against your will, do you have the moral justification to pull the plug?” no, the crux of that argument is that the pro life person is making an appeal to nature, usually paired with the argument that a pregnancy and its outcome is god’s will, and is suggesting that women’s role in the pregnancy is passive, just letting nature take its course. you might better be able to engage that particular argument by interrogating “why isn’t abortion natural when there are natural methods to abortion, when medical abortion has only made safer what women have done all throughout history? when miscarriage too is natural, happens in nature all the time, and isn’t always experienced as a loss by the mother—often it’s mundane, a woman’s body making the decision to terminate an unviable pregnancy, often before she’s even aware of it. so why is it natural for a woman’s body to terminate a pregnancy for her own survival and wellbeing, but as soon as she wills it and takes steps to do so it’s unnatural and immoral? yes, abortion is an action, but why do you see it as a perverse and immoral choice for a woman to make equivalent to murder, rather than her natural domain?”

and following these kinds of lines of questioning (rather than just switching to another stock pro-choice argument) will always get you closer to the heart of the disagreement, that which cannot be resolved over the course of a single conversation. which is that feminists simply believe that in a humane, moral society, women should get to choose whether or not to bring life into the world, whereas forced birthers believe a fetus is a life from conception, willed by god, and that women must surrender to god’s will.

am I (17f) the a-hole for telling my best friend (17f) that her greatest achievement in life will be to become an organ donor and singing about my superiority over my classmates (17m, 18m, 17m, ?f) culminating in me standing top of them in a human pyramid?

📕BTS Fic Reads - 2022 July - Oct

I’ve been getting messages about my reading lists (because I haven’t been posting monthly and I really don’t have any excuse for not posting for four months lol). Though most of these have been reblogged, commented on, mentioned, etc. and that anybody can just check my archive and tags for the fics, I compiled them all in this list for easy reference (I refer to these lists too 😊). I also notice that it is easier to find fics when they are logged/documented somewhere and when described or properly tagged in the post. I hope this will help readers and potential readers find the fics they like.

💌 Again, these are not mine and we have all these authors to thank -  I really appreciate all of you. I may not get to reach all of you but I hope this can serve as a multiplier and reach other readers to discover your gift of stories and for them to find their favorites  💌

Data spanning from 1995 to 2021 in India revealed a striking gender imbalance in organ transplants, with four men getting organ transplants for every woman. A total of 36,640 transplants took place in this period, out of which 29,000 were for men and 6,945 for women.

This substantial difference is attributed to a complex interplay of economic responsibilities, societal pressures, and deeply ingrained preferences. 

Dr Anil Kumar, director of the government-run National Organ & Tissue Transplant Organisation (NOTTO) highlighted this significant aspect of the organ donation landscape.

While more men contribute as cadaver donors, a staggering 93 per cent of total organ donations in the country come from living donors, he told the Times of India newspaper. This hints at a trend: a majority of living organ donors are women.  Socio-economic factors a driving force for women donors? A study published in the Experimental and Clinical Transplantation Journal in 2021 delved into the intricacies of living organ transplantation in India. The findings showed that 80 per cent of living organ donors are women, predominantly wives or mothers. The socio-economic pressure on women to assume caregiving roles within the family emerges as a primary factor, compelling them to step forward as donors. Men's reluctance in surgery In many cases, men, often the primary breadwinners, hesitate to undergo surgery, contributing to the gender gap in organ recipients. The study highlights that when the recipient is a male breadwinner, family members, especially wives or parents, feel a heightened responsibility to donate organs. Emotional dynamics The emotional dynamics surrounding organ donation are intricate. Women recipients, in particular, may experience guilt when their family members, especially wives or mothers, become donors. This reluctance leads to a scenario where women recipients may find themselves on waiting lists.  Notably, Karnataka has topped the charts in organ donation in the past decade. The number of donations have risen from 102 in 2013 to 765 in the first 10 months of 2023. 

A user on Ovarit added this helpful context:

"Just a little more context to this: men produce male-specific proteins (on the Y chromosome) which often get rejected by women's bodies. Since males have an X chromosome, their bodies recognize proteins from female donors. This makes it more difficult for women to receive male tissue/organs, while still being acceptable candidates for donating to men. Even still, these ratios are very disproportionate".

"As women we absolutely need to be aware of our vulnerability of being used as spare parts in a man's world. Especially when we are being socialized into believing that we need to sacrifice our bodies and lives for others- and society has developed a sense of entitlement to this sacrifice, while downplaying the suffering of women."

The Creature after seeing Taffy's car in front of Michael's house: Hm. I think it's so great when people become organ donors.

I love all Yellowjackets relationships so much like they are beyond romance. Nat and misty are an old sick master and her devoted guard dog, still pulling her stumbling master along by the leash and attacking anyone who walks by. Shauna is Jackie’s well loved cat who is locked in the apartment with her corpse, destroying everything before (literally) eating her face. I mean that before Jackie even died in the show, and that Jackie died the second Shauna voted to go to the lake. Jeff is Shaunas organ donor; he keeps giving and she keeps taking, both of them desperately trying to sustain her the way she is but her body keeps rejecting the parts. Shauna also thinks she’s Jeff’s prisoner, but in reality she chained herself to him and holds the key in one hand while she gnaws at the skin around the restraint. Callie ran away or hid when she caught Shauna staring at her, until she realized Shauna wasn’t seeing her but at her first baby and Jackie. Now Callie is tearing herself to shreds to become something that will gain her mothers attention. Van is mania for a bipolar Taissa; Tai has to keep order and structure, keep herself sober, keep a strict sleep schedule, and just dull herself, because as soon as her mental health wavers, she slips right back to Van and whatever irrational and dangerous decision she convinces Tai to do. Adult Lottie and Van are like some sort of insects in heat; Van can function without her, but her body will fail her over time. Lottie gives off a pheromone that makes Van erratic and obsessive and devoted so that Lottie can tear her head off at the point of climax. Shauna and Taissa are two sisters that survived an abusive household, having increasingly complicated and painful relationships with those around them, so that in comparison their own relationship is simple and pure. They have little in common besides sneaking into each others rooms at night to clean each others wounds and hiding under the blankets to block out the screaming downstairs. Ben and Natalie are survivors of the zombie apocalypse, until they’ve finally reached the bunker and he notices the bite she had been hiding from him. Good show
