According to the CDC, in 10 percent of those drownings, the adult will actually watch the child do it, having no idea it is happening. Drowning does not look like drowning—Dr. Pia, in an article in the Coast Guard’s On Scene magazine, described the Instinctive Drowning Response like this:

“Except in rare circumstances, drowning people are physiologically unable to call out for help. The respiratory system was designed for breathing. Speech is the secondary or overlaid function. Breathing must be fulfilled before speech occurs.

Drowning people’s mouths alternately sink below and reappear above the surface of the water. The mouths of drowning people are not above the surface of the water long enough for them to exhale, inhale, and call out for help. When the drowning people’s mouths are above the surface, they exhale and inhale quickly as their mouths start to sink below the surface of the water.

Drowning people cannot wave for help. Nature instinctively forces them to extend their arms laterally and press down on the water’s surface. Pressing down on the surface of the water permits drowning people to leverage their bodies so they can lift their mouths out of the water to breathe.

Throughout the Instinctive Drowning Response, drowning people cannot voluntarily control their arm movements. Physiologically, drowning people who are struggling on the surface of the water cannot stop drowning and perform voluntary movements such as waving for help, moving toward a rescuer, or reaching out for a piece of rescue equipment.

From beginning to end of the Instinctive Drowning Response people’s bodies remain upright in the water, with no evidence of a supporting kick. Unless rescued by a trained lifeguard, these drowning people can only struggle on the surface of the water from 20 to 60 seconds before submersion occurs.”

This doesn’t mean that a person that is yelling for help and thrashing isn’t in real trouble—they are experiencing aquatic distress. Not always present before the Instinctive Drowning Response, aquatic distress doesn’t last long—but unlike true drowning, these victims can still assist in their own rescue. They can grab lifelines, throw rings, etc.

Look for these other signs of drowning when persons are in the water:

Head low in the water, mouth at water level

Head tilted back with mouth open

Eyes glassy and empty, unable to focus

Eyes closed

Hair over forehead or eyes

Not using legs—vertical

Hyperventilating or gasping

Trying to swim in a particular direction but not making headway

Trying to roll over on the back

Appear to be climbing an invisible ladder

So if a crew member falls overboard and everything looks OK—don’t be too sure. Sometimes the most common indication that someone is drowning is that they don’t look like they’re drowning. They may just look like they are treading water and looking up at the deck. One way to be sure? Ask them, “Are you all right?” If they can answer at all—they probably are. If they return a blank stare, you may have less than 30 seconds to get to them. And parents—children playing in the water make noise. When they get quiet, you get to them and find out why.

This has to be one of the most creative trends I've seen online. I did my own version of Batman and the Joker! Tbh, the Joker side being rotten was based on another version I saw on X

welcome to princeton-plainsboro high school

hi guys me and my friend @ricky-mortis made a house high school au

yapping below

house is a science (chem or phys idk) teacher at pee pee high school (what the kids call it)!!! he’s also the club advisor for clubmed and also the lacrosse coach!!!

wilson is an english teacher at Princeton-Plainsboro High School (NOT pee pee) and also the drama club advisor.

theyre married but the kids don’t know cuz they think its funny.

principal cuddy…

star lacrosse player rich boy robert chase (in this au he lives with his dad) joins clubmed from fatherly pressure. hates it. makes friends. hates it less. accidentally ends up wanting to be a doctor. allison cameron and eric foreman both want to be doctors and joined clubmed. cameron later transfers schools because her and chase’s breakup was SOOO BAD… awkward to this day… foreman has no friends and eats lunch with house everyday. house lets him do whatever with lab equipment.

thirteen and kutner are also in this!!! so house used to be a doctor but his malpractice lost him his license and also the connections to get jobs in research or college level teaching. hes kinda lost after that. vicodin abuse happens!!!!! and then he goes to rehab hooray!!!

after rehab something something wilson (who he knew before idk hes not a doctor though) is like. this stem teachers gonna retire in a year or two!!! and house (he wants to spend more time with wilson) speedruns a teaching certification and gets hired!!!!!!!!!

blah blah teachering blah blah gay theyre gay theyre in love blah blah

FUN FACTS!!!

house insists on being called dr. house (many students know and have pointed out his lack of medical license)

house HATES the school admin (yet is department head of science. so is wilson for english. house makes his ducklings do department head work for extra credit)

eric foreman’s grade in house’s class junior year was 234%

foreman is president of clubmed, chase is vice president. chase is not happy about this

kutner is alive and well (rocketry club…. and clubmed)

wilson has a lot of old movie posters in his classroom (house keeps all HIS posters at home)

house and wilson harass admin to get the same lunch and prep periods (when they do not have the same prep periods house will drop into wilson’s classroom unannounced while wilson’s teaching)

yes they do gossip about the students

along with foreman, the rest of the ducklings AND wilson eat lunch in house’s classroom

foreman gets called mini house and he hates it

house takes his classes on frequent field trips often unrelated to course content. they go literally ANYWHERE that isnt school

foreman chase and cameron have all graded papers for house

when foreman and chase graduate they both ask for letters of recommendation from house and he begrudgingly agrees and he never ever shows it to them (OR WILSON) even after it’s been submitted because its the nicest thing he’s ever said ever

house cried at their graduation (so did wilson but he cries every graduation)

wilson got house to play piano for a production. reasons for his success are unknown.

ok yay

i will say this as a person who is not white: i think being called racist as a white person is like way lower stakes than anyone makes it out to be. and like, the reality is that white people have an inflated sense of anxiety about what being called Racist Means when like. let's be fucking real for a second. it does not meaningfully often result in Material Violence to a person for being "called racist." and I think being racist is just a thing that happens. and like if we are going to say that being accidentally racist from time to time is something that like, is relatively low stakes, that has to go hand in hand with being like. ok well I guess i should take some time to think about why someone might think I'm racist and like Do something about that.

like I think the paranoia and anxiety about how Being Called Racist is something that Does Violence to People is rooted in a white guilt racialized anxiety and if I am going to be real with you I do not think it is based in material reality. you can be a little uncomfortable it's not the end of the world. i think it's frustrating as a racialized person to see so many white people more frantically hand-wringing over the prospect of being called "racist" than over the prospect of Being Racist. it's annoying to say the least.
