If you have someone who is class III morbidly obese, they eventually die young. My very good friend died at age 20 by throwing a blood clot, directly due to his extreme obesity. I would give up so much to go back in time and have my friend on Wegovy as a teen. Some people need a lifelong help. Fine. Caleb would be…

Thank you, I hold a PhD in bird stuff and I agree. If there is a report of passerines in your area with then virus, or sick birds at the feeder, yes, stop.

I work in conservation science. Everyone I work with couldn’t finish the film in one sitting. It took me three watch sessions. My buddy who is a rare animal genomics specialist can’t finish it. This movie 100% captures what it is like to have life-saving knowledge and collaboration shut out by greedy or small minded…

That’s a cop-out. At least pick a tissue type. Like popping the adenoids out of children so they are tender.

I work and live in queer spaces in an industry that is largely populated with LGTBQIA professionals. I make money and get my training from within queer social spaces. People spontaneously identify me as not fitting into normal gender expectations.

The local Health Department should have immediately petitioned the court syste. on the issue of treatment. When someone is being handed and obvious but totally preventable death sentence, officials need to fight for public health. It's one thing to refuse an elective surgery It's another thing idiotically skip towards…

I was a beneficiary of that NY program. It was easy, no insurance forms, no guilt or weirdness. They even check my antibody levels every few years since I'm in a high animal contact job.

I was wildly disappointed, I was like oh my God how did they make steel without carbon in the batch?? This is a huge Revolution!

Boy, I wish they applied this standard of evidence and side effects to male birth control, the FDA has shut down several successful and safe male birth control options because of minor side effects.

My understanding is that it was incredibly costly per episode. Regardless, I AM SO VERY SAD. WHY NETFLIX, WHY? JUST COME CUT OUT MY HEART WHY DON’T YOU.

I know. I use publicly funded roads everyday. I am a slave to the man. If I was a real self-reliant person I’d have a paramotoring ultralight system and only fly, under my own powerpower, using biodisel I made from pig lard, to go places.

Currently, liver dialysis is used for that purpose, to give the liver a break from work. Advances in liver dialysis could allow machines to temporarily totally replace the liver's function. Perhaps full removal and resuscitation of the liver would be a thing someday, all our organs can come out and get their own tiny…

Is causing a heart attack through mocking chanting the modern equivilent of a Biblical stoning?

Snakes with hypocalcemia on a plane!

Open open carry is part of a dangerous brinkmanship culture that focuses on machismo and threatening everybody.

Actually, non invasive surgery tends to be much more cost effective than a full surgical theatre. If they can do this with someone semi-concious, the need for an anesthesiologist is reduced, and a team of nurses or surgical assistants isn't required, nor is a sterile operating room. Cardiac catheterization, a similar…

“oh no, the government is putting my cousin in a cage and will keep her there for years! I need to tell anyone who will listen so my family won’t suffer!”

Yeaaah... but we still see Stable Systems, which have multiple mechanisms in place to avoid being moved away from their norm.

I buy Subway mini-subs for my pet parrot, and the order is somewhat similar. “For a bird. Vegetarian. No kids meals. No sides. No onions.” etc. Providing the opportunity for my bird to hunt through a sandwich as big as she is for fresh vegetables allows her to express natural food seeking behaviors, as well as tearing…

Huh. At the end he throws the Joker 20 stories to a grisley death and then the game focuses on the corpse’s face twisted up into a deathmask grin as the joker finally got Batman to kill. That's pretty heavy for an NES title.
