A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions

Please don't post about US Politics.

Rules: (interactive)

1) Be nice and; have fun

Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them

2) All posts must end with a '?'

This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?

3) No spam

Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.

4) NSFW is okay, within reason

Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either [email protected] or [email protected]. NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].

5) This is not a support community.

It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions. If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email [email protected]. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.

Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

It reduces the risk of heart disease! Very important.

Remember, you are most likely to die from heart disease.

Really? How the heck does that work out?

The rubbish that gets into your teeth / gums can then get into your blood stream. From there it can travel to your heart and cause issues.

Well that's good to know. Thanks!

You’ve already got a better answer, but let me encourage you to remember your circulation whenever you think of your dental health to help motivate you to build and maintain those good habits.

Flossing seems mundane, but really it’s helping you with the most important risk factors for the things that are most likely to kill us.

Eh. I always saw myself as most likely to die with a shotgun in my mouth, and pulling the trigger with my toes.
