@evrythingsabyou Not to mention, what people are referring to is a sticker that was fan made that Pattie then GAVE OUT not sold which doesn’t violate trademark law to my understanding. Not to mention it’s obvious parody

@No_Toilets This has already been clarified to be a fan made sticker

Copyright and trademark laws exist for a reason. She tempted fate too much and got sued. The fact that they’re suing her for $1 makes it apparent they’re not trying to ruin her. But if she’s going to build her branding around THEIRS, no shit they’re gonna defend their trademark

I’m sorry, but if you spend even five minutes reading about this stupid-ass case and emerge vaguely defending the corporation ‘Patagonia’, you are a profound loser lol
English
@KayyKova @Drag_Crave @pattiegonia Pattie has already clarified that prior “disagreement” was simply that Patagonia reached out and told her to be careful. Pattie abided by this guidance since. Also, parody is protected speech, since Pattie didn’t sell the merch and only gave it away, it’s fine.

@Drag_Crave @pattiegonia It seems like a lot of you don't have the basic understanding of how trademarks actually work. It's not just the word itself, it's what you do with it.
You can still be unhappy with the lawsuit, but it's not an invalid lawsuit.
English
Pattie Gonia, a well-known drag queen, climate activist & community organizer who has raised over $3.7M for non-profit organizations is being sued by retailer Patagonia over the use of her stage name.
Drag Crave urges its audience to use their voices and tell Patagonia to drop their lawsuit against Pattie.

Stop a statin and your LDL cholesterol rises 30% in four days. Nobody writes a WSJ feature about it. Stop certain blood pressure medications and your BP can spike within hours. Nobody calls it a design flaw.
Levothyroxine, antidepressants, insulin, metformin, antihistamines. Chronic treatments for chronic conditions, and all of them stop working when you stop taking them. None of them generate think-pieces questioning whether patients should have started.
The AMA classified obesity as a disease in 2013. Thirteen years later, it’s still the only chronic condition where “you have to take it forever” is framed as an argument against treatment rather than a description of how medicine works.
The Wall Street Journal@WSJ
While nearly 18% of U.S. adults have taken a GLP-1 drug for weight loss or to treat a chronic condition, about half of people will stop taking it within a year. Often, they don’t understand what is likely to come next. 🔗: on.wsj.com/4dCkbia

Another day, another news article notifying us that RFK Jr is trying to kill us
FactPost@factpostnews
RFK Jr. has fired the chairs of the Preventive Service Task Force, which decides which preventive healthcare services insurers must cover. This could threaten coverage for cancer, depression and osteoporosis screenings.

@Fullplate556 @RespectfulMemes The trucks are that expensive haha. If we’re talking the box trucks, I know the ones I was on were around 200,000 a piece. But the rest of your statement still stands. Also we’re not ambulance drivers, we’re EMTs or Paramedics. Drivers can’t provide care usually.

Interesting how masks suddenly become useless when discussing public health, yet somehow every surgeon, cath lab team, and procedural cardiologist still masks up when they are standing over an open body or threading wires into a coronary artery.
Medicine understands something the internet often forgets: protection is rarely absolute. Seatbelts do not prevent every death. Gloves do not prevent every infection. Masks are another layer, not magic.
WE do know that reduction of viral load decreases morbidity of disease. Masks reduce fomites. To this day I wear a mask in every healthcare facility I enter - I want to minimize risk.
I doubt this cardiologist wants me to operate on his patient without a mask

“Long before the pandemic, gold-standard randomized controlled trials had repeatedly shown that masks offered little or no meaningful protection against the spread of respiratory viruses. When COVID-19 arrived, fresh trials were launched in hopes of settling the question. Instead, they largely confirmed the earlier findings: Masks produced, at best, marginal reductions in SARS-CoV-2 transmission, if any. Two major Cochrane reviews (in 2020 and in 2023), the gold standard for rigorous medical evidence synthesis, reached the same conclusion. Neither found convincing evidence that surgical masks meaningfully slowed the spread of respiratory viruses in real-world settings.”

OH MY GOD A COMPANY WAS TRYING TO MAKE A VACCINE FOR A DEADLY VIRUS WE'VE KNOWN ABOUT FOR 40 YEARS
MUST BE A CONSPIRACY
Mario Nawfal@MarioNawfal
MODERNA HAD A HANTAVIRUS VACCINE IN DEVELOPMENT BEFORE THE OUTBREAK Their stock jumped 10% this week as a cruise ship hantavirus outbreak spread across the Atlantic. We posted an internet theory. Here's what might actually be going on. Less fear-mongering, more reason
