---- "10 Different Type of Burps & Belches"

Jake Broe, Artur Rehi, Denys Davydov, Joe Blogs, CENSOR.net, RFU ( with help from a company in Communist China ), The Military Show, UkrainianWarToday ( brand new from August of 2025 ), PPR GLOBAL ( from Turkey ), and some others.

Joe Blogs features late in this thread. He's interesting and worth some sampling of his earlier work:

10 RICHEST YOUTUBERS 2022 Who earned $54 Million? Markiplier, Unspeakable, MrBeast, Dude Perfect? 24 January 2022

100K YOUTUBE SILVER PLAY BUTTON - THANK YOU to Everyone Who Has Supported Joe Blogs!! 2 April 2024

Clicks make AdSense money for these YouTube channels. That why there are so many exclamation points and capital letters and special words like "collapse" and the like.

Here's Joe Blogs' COLLAPSE messages from 2002 and 2023 respectively:

RUSSIA - COLLAPSE of Russian Economy Has Started. SANCTIONS KICK IN, INFLATION RISING, GDP CRASHING 25 March 2022

RUSSIA Economy COLLAPSES as MASS EXODUS Continues & MILLIONS Decide to Flee Mobilization in Russia 29 September 2022

RUSSIAN Economy COLLAPSES to Worst Deficit in Russian History as Revenues Crash & Costs Soar in Jan 9 February 2023

One should not forget the icons. 🔴 ⚠️

Get their attention! Get clicks! Get money!

Belch, if necessary, but get the money! COLLAPSE.

It's interesting how this "Gamifying" thread features, in part, "America is a fascist state" and Democrat “Alexander Vindman finally got his head on straight!”

The curating of a thread by an original poster is a fascinating phenomenon, is it not?

Athlete’s Foot (Tinea Pedis)

https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/22139-athletes-foot-tinea-pedis

What is athlete’s foot?

Athlete’s foot is a common fungal infection (caused by a fungus). Athlete’s foot causes an itchy, stinging, burning rash on the skin on one or both of your feet. Athlete’s foot is most common between your toes, but it can also affect the tops of your feet, the soles of your feet and your heels. Your skin may become scaly and cracked or develop blisters. Sometimes, your feet smell bad.

Athlete’s foot is a form of ringworm. “Tinea pedis” is another name for athlete’s foot. “Tinea” is another name for ringworm, and “pedis” means foot or feet.

What does athlete’s foot look like?

Athlete’s foot can affect the skin between your toes, the bottoms of your feet, the tops of your feet, the edges of your feet and your heels. Your skin may appear irritated (red, purple, gray or white), scaly or flaky.

Who is at risk?

Athlete’s foot affects everyone. But it’s most common in males and people over the age of 60. You may be more likely to develop athlete’s foot if you have:

Diabetes.
Obesity.
A weakened immune system.
Tissue damage or wounds on your feet.
How common is athlete’s foot?

Athlete’s foot is common. Estimates suggest that 3% to 15% of the population has athlete’s foot, and 70% of the population will have athlete’s point at some time in their lives.

Symptoms and Causes

What are the symptoms of athlete’s foot?

Symptoms of athlete’s foot include:

Cracked and peeling skin.
Itchy skin.
A skin rash.
A burning sensation.
What are the different types of athlete’s foot?

Your symptoms depend on the type of athlete’s foot that you have.

Toe web infection: A toe web infection is the most common type of athlete’s foot. It typically affects the skin between your fourth toe (ring toe) and fifth toe (pinkie toe). Your skin may change color, crack, peel or flake.
Moccasin-type infection: A moccasin-type infection affects the bottoms of your feet, your heels and the edges of your feet. Your feet may be sore for a few days. Then, the skin on the bottoms of your feet thickens and cracks. In rare cases, your toenails may get infected. They can thicken, break into small pieces and fall out.
Vesicular-type infection: A vesicular-type infection typically affects the bottoms of your feet, but it may appear anywhere on your feet. A vesicular-type infection features bumps or fluid-filled blisters (vesicles).
Ulcerative infection: An ulcerative infection is the rarest type of athlete’s foot. Open sores (ulcers) often appear between the toes. Open sores may also appear on the bottoms of your feet.
What causes athlete’s foot?

Several different species of fungi cause athlete’s foot.

It commonly spreads through skin-to-skin contact or contact with a flake of skin. It spreads in areas used by large groups of people, like locker rooms, swimming pools and saunas.

It can also spread through contact with an infected surface. You can get athlete’s foot by sharing towels, socks or shoes with someone who has athlete’s foot.

Is athlete’s foot contagious?

Athlete’s foot is contagious. It’s a fungus that grows on or in your skin. Fungi (plural form of fungus) need warm temperatures and moisture to grow. People often wear socks and tight shoes every day, which keep their feet warm and moist. This is the perfect environment for athlete’s foot to grow.

Diagnosis and Tests

How is athlete’s foot diagnosed?

Your healthcare provider can typically diagnose athlete’s foot by examining your feet and symptoms.

What tests will be done to diagnose athlete’s foot?

In some cases, your healthcare provider may remove a small piece of skin (biopsy) and test it in a lab. Several drops of a potassium hydroxide (KOH) solution dissolve the skin cells so only fungal cells are visible.

Management and Treatment

How do I treat athlete’s foot?

Over-the-counter (OTC) and prescription antifungal creams, ointments, gels, sprays or powders effectively treat athlete’s foot. These products contain clotrimazole, miconazole, tolnaftate or terbinafine.

Some prescription antifungal medications for athlete’s foot are pills. These pills contain fluconazole, itraconazole or terbinafine.

It’s important to finish your full course of medicine. If you stop too soon, your athlete’s foot may come back and be harder to treat.

How do I manage my athlete’s foot symptoms?

Keep your feet dry, clean and cool. If possible, don’t wear socks or shoes. Avoid scratching your feet. Scratching your feet may cause the fungus to spread to other parts of your body.

How soon after treatment will I feel better?

With proper diagnosis and treatment, your athlete’s foot should go away in one to eight weeks. Follow your healthcare provider’s instructions.

It’s important to finish your full course of medicine. During the early healing stages, itchiness and irritation will fade. Even if your symptoms go away, you may still have athlete’s foot. If you don’t finish your full course of medicine, your athlete’s foot can come back and be harder to treat.

What will happen if athlete’s foot is left untreated?

Athlete’s foot can spread across the bottom of your foot. This is moccasin athlete’s foot. In feet with moccasin athlete’s foot, the skin on the bottoms, heels and edges of your feet are dry, itchy and scaly.

In severe cases of athlete’s foot, you may develop fluid-filled blisters or open sores. Blisters often appear on the bottoms of your feet, but they may develop anywhere on your feet. Open sores often appear between your toes, but they may appear on the bottoms of your feet. Your feet may also smell bad.

Athlete’s foot doesn’t typically go away on its own. If it’s left untreated, it can spread to other areas of your body, including your:

Nails: Fungal nail infections can be more difficult to treat. They’re often more resistant to many treatments.
Hands: A similar fungal infection can spread to your hands. This happens when you scratch your infected feet or use the same towel to dry off your infected feet and hands.
Groin: The same fungus that causes athlete’s foot can also spread to your groin. It’s a condition called jock itch. The fungus typically spreads from your feet to your groin after using a towel to dry off after bathing or swimming.
