Reply to comment by aneeta96 in Kolkata (India) Man Infected By Killer Plant Fungus In World's First Case by vbcda

Here's the information regarding the recent fungal threat. There are MANY fungal infections that infect humans internally, and many of them become very deadly.https://www.cdc.gov/fungal/candida-auris/index.html

Toenail fungus lives in the nailbed, and there are many fungal infections that cause toenail fungus. The most common one typically does not spread past the nailbed. Some, can infect the blood stream and will result in death if not treated.

here's a list of SOME fungal infections that are dangerous.https://www.cdc.gov/fungal/diseases/index.html

This list is not exhaustive.

Regarding toenail fungus....the infection is often so hard to get rid of, that you're sometimes prescribed a pill for it that can do significant damage to your liver, to the point that you have to have frequent bloodwork while taking the medication in order to monitor your liver and ensure it's not being damaged too much. Many people are removed from this medication due to their liver suffering too much from it. At which point, the next method to cure the infection is to surgically remove the nail, then sterilize the matrix so the nail doesn't grow back and then continuously apply topical prescription strength antifungals directly to the nail bed and do crazy things like change your socks 3 times a day and sterilize them in bleach or boiling water before washing them separately from other clothes.

Reply to 20 year old tickets from Little Caesar’s forgotten arcade themed restaurant named “Caesarland” by Forgeworld

This place was my whole childhood. It was the better version of Chuck E. Cheese in my hometown growing up. There were arcade games, a spinning door maze, a small zipline, and of course they served Little Caesar’s pizza. There was also the mascot from my nightmares that would come out for birthday parties(not my pic). Also fun fact, to this day, caesarland.com will redirect you to Little Caesar’s website! This is a forgotten piece of history that I wish more people knew about because it’s not even on their wikipedia page. I tried making a paragraph about it but it gets immediately removed for not being able to prove my claims with an official source, which does not exist because it’s only documentation is through those who remember it.
