I went to law school but I am faaaaaar from a constitutional scholar so I basically just look for "Alito/Thomas dissents" or "joins the dissent" to determine if a case result is good or not.

When I had my hysterectomy, I REALLY wanted them to give me my uterus back so I could bury it in my yard and plant a tree over it or something and they were like "absolutely not." They SAID they need to send to pathology to make sure not cancer but how much did they really need.

Thinking about this ad, how cigarettes are used to self medicate for ADHD, the comorbidity of obesity with ADHD, and that Vyvanse is approved as a medication for binge eating disorder. "ADHD didn't exist when I was a kid."

not sure if this is in the current bluesky consciousness, but the Nuclear Block is what makes this place great. a block ends everything between you and the blocked person. it robs them if all engagement. it’s very much why the troll problem here is much more limited than the everything app.

For context - 20% of knee replacement patients regret the surgery (pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC...) Same for bariatric surgery (www.americanjournalofsurgery.com/article/S000... ) People aren’t saying they should be illegal on that basis A 2% regret rate is INCREDIBLY low Informed consent ftw

This and also I can't help but feel that there's the same sort of societal need right now for ~ something ~ for the same reason that spiritualism took off in the late 19th century and then again post WWI. (post WWII we replaced the hole in our collective psyches with capitalism)
