Hello fellow Cyanide and Happiness fans!
About this community and how I post the comics… Many moons ago, I would ask my Dad to save the newspaper for me everyday so I could read my favorite comic strips. Of course these days you can read your favorite comics online instead of a newspaper, but I love the nostalgia of reading the daily comics. Anyway, one of my favorite current comics is Cyanide and Happiness and I will be posting the daily release from their website (https://explosm.net) and a an extra or two randoms.
Cyanide & Happiness (C&H) is a webcomic created by Rob DenBleyker, Kris Wilson, Dave McElfatrick and Matt Melvin. The comic has been running since 2005 and is published on the website explosm.net along with animated shorts in the same style. Matt Melvin left C&H in 2014, and several other people have contributed to the comic and to the animated shorts… Read more: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyanide_%26_Happiness

While it's the opposite situations in hospitals.
Torn uterus as a labour complication? Have some ibuprofen! Oh your husband has a stiff neck? He gets a prescription drug to handle the unimaginable pain.
Why use lidocaine on women during catherization? Surely the length of the urethra is more important than the diameter!
A study found out that women were more likely to die than men in surgery, when operated on by a male surgeon. Female surgeons are a safer bet. Turns out you shouldn't go into surgery when you are sick. And women weren't taken seriously by male surgeons as much when mentioning not feeling too well.
Studies have found that Black people are prescribed less pain medication by medical staff than white patients too. So your best bet if you get sick is to try your hardest to be a white man, otherwise you might be fucked.
Not that long ago, a shocking number of MED STUDENTS (close to 50%. No joke.) thought that people with black skin had fewer nerve endings/felt less pain.
FUCKIN MED STUDENTS.
It also use to be taught in med school that new born babies couldn't feel pain.
In a survey of newborn babies, when asked if they had felt pain during abdominal surgery, almost 100% declined to comment.
Surely the solution is a massive increase in female doctors of color?
