Ah, but there is censorship.

At least now I know the reason my marriage is NotReal™. Its not that I'm gay, but that I became Dr WhiteTrash. Bingo.

I'm an "Ex-poor" physician and I share your enthusiasm. Are the Cheetos going to be flaming hot, and can I have the Nation instead of the New Yorker?

No. I'm saying that "People who are willing to damage the psyche of children" is a much broader category than child molesters. Not all abuse is sexual. And more than just abuse causes damage.

Are you insane? Seriously. How could your sarcasm detector be so off that you would think for a second that there is a more than 1 in 10^17 chance that a human being selected at random in the universe would make a joke like that? How does your head not explode?

"People who are willing to damage the psyche of children deserve life sentences, no parole."

You are not hyper-vigilant. Whenever I examine any kid who is young enough that mom has to be in the room, I specifically say that "I'm a doctor so I am looking here to see how we can make you better. But it's only ok for me to do this because your Mommy is here" before any clothes come off.

Me too. Though they lost me at the queer-phobia and slapping a pink ribbons on known risk factors for breast cancer.

You don't need to spend hundreds of dollars on this crap. Get a cheap electric toothbrush, toothpaste, and floss. In the morning brush. After every meal take 30 seconds and $0.01 worth of floss and touch up your teeth. At bedtime brush for a minute to loosen crud, floss for 30 seconds, then brush for 2 minutes.

And this is the reason that Ken Aden just got a $100 donation from me. The fucknut who did this wants to ensure that Mr Aden never goes to congress. And I would like to do my part to ensure that Mr Fucknut cries like a baby come the second Wednesday in November.

Several times my husband and I were inspired to stop to give them a big show of man-on-man smooching. That worked like a fucking charm when they have their kids with them. You want to see a bunch of evangelicals squirm? Gay kissey-face in front of their children will do the trick.

This was a really great essay until the last sentence: "In other words, I don't think policy questions can be resolved by a comparison of risks, however rigorous."

Yet another reason the Pentagon needs LESS funding. Not only are they a money pit into which Chicken-hawks throw the US economy while simultaneously trashing our international credibility, but they are wasting money on combat acupuncture.

"I had to fight to get a Vitamin D test."

And sometimes little Chinese kids at Yankee stadium get blowjobs from dogs while bald toothless pedophiles watch. (Seriously, look at the picture. I speak the truth.)

I am terrified of dentists too. I can deal with the cleaning part but fillings are the stuff of nightmares. I had a lot of bad experiences with fillings in my childhood, and it terrified me.

My mom had mumps meningitis and was left with unilateral deafness since age 8. When I was a kid, if the shots were made of cow shit and they had to be injected into your eyeball, she would have held me down so they could inject it.

"After being fortunate & privileged enough to be treated by one of the top endocrinologists in the nation, he told me that there are studies being done exploring the disconnect between blood levels of thyroid hormone & actual cellular absorption rates, as well as the high correlation between geographic pockets of

Actually, I treat Vitamin D deficiency pretty seriously. That's a real thing, and given the climate where I practice the majority of people have sub-optimal levels. That said, I generally just recommend that people take 2k-4k i.u. daily without any testing. It's not harmful and there is good evidence that in some
