Reply to The often misused buzzword Paradigm originated in extremely popular and controversial philosopher of science Thomas Kuhn's work; he defined the term in two core ways: firstly as a disciplinary matrix (similar to the concept of a worldview) and secondly as an exemplar by thelivingphilosophy

God damn I read about paradigm in the context of quantum physics and gaslighting from stumbleupon like 10 years ago. Now everybody uses those words wtf

Reply to dead arm! by PewPewAnimeGirl

LPT: If it's asleep, rub the appendage. Anecdotally it seems to work for me. Like for example, if its my arm, I just take my other arm and rub up and down the length of it as if to stimulate circulation.

When something goes to sleep, I have heard that it's not a blood thing, but a nerve thing. My pet theory therefore, is that while you probably are stimulating some blood flow to some capillaries that were squeeze shut with pressure, it's moreso works because you're stimulating nerves or some bullshit. Also doesn't hurt that just massaging a limp appendage is a little more calming than panicking.
