@npr: Country singer Ella Langley has set a new all-time "Billboard" chart record, taking the throne from Mariah Carey — though perhaps not for long. This week, Langley’s “Choosin’ Texas” is, once again, the No. 1 song in the country, a feat it's achieved for 23 straight weeks — something that’s never been done before. Last winter, Mariah Carey reached 22 weeks at No. 1 with “All I Want for Christmas Is You.” That song returned to the top of the charts during the most recent holiday season, and it’s a hit every December, so Langley has her work cut out for her in the weeks to come. If “Choosin’ Texas” can’t rack up a bunch more weeks on the top of the charts, Langley may soon find herself regifting the all-time record right back to pop music’s Queen of Christmas.

So people can buy that now and it no longer means anything. Great, toss it in the garbage heap with everything else that’s dying from greed and capitalism.

Who Can Your Blood Save? 🩸 Your Blood Type Decides 🤔@drbahaadmour ────────── Your blood type determines far more than a letter and a + or − sign. 🩸 It can determine who can safely receive your red blood cells — and some blood types can help far more recipients than others. This 3D medical animation compares the major ABO and Rh blood groups and visualizes red blood cell donation compatibility between O−, O+, A−, A+, B−, B+, AB− and AB+. O− is commonly called the universal red blood cell donor because its red cells can be used for patients of any ABO/Rh type when appropriate. At the opposite end, AB+ can receive compatible red blood cells from all eight major ABO/Rh groups. Compatibility is more complex than blood type alone. In clinical practice, blood banks also perform antibody screening and crossmatching to help make transfusion as safe as possible.
