    I’m guessing the toast thing came around from the possibility of damage to or disturbing the olfactory nerves if there’s increased pressure on them like from the brain swelling (possibly from a concussion) or from bleeding inside the braincase.

    It makes sense on paper, but I doubt there would be many times a patient would be conscious at that point.










  • Pretty sure the intention is more to distance oneself from depressing information about an event that has occurred, not about something which can be interfered upon.

    I.E. Hearing/consuming constant news about election results when one vehemently opposes the result can very easily lead to anxiety (shown in the comic) and depression, both of which can be damaging to one’s mental and physical health.
