the key to getting adults to stop watching and raging and discoursing over media meant for children is to make more fantasy media for adults i believe
The last 24 hours has enlightened me about the way people think about their doctors. I'm truly floored, and deeply saddened by statements like this: "Patients have no responsibility to act in a particular way. Period."

I'm not gonna lie, it is frustrating when you ask a patient what's wrong and they just give you a diagnosis. Like "I have a chest infection". OK, you're probably right but I need to know your symptoms to see if I agree with that diagnosis. I can't just take your word for it.
@notaproviderMD @MastcellMadness Patients have no responsibility to act in a particular way. Period. It's your responsibility to provide care to even the very frustrating. It's literally the entire job.

When Microsoft released Windows 10, they skipped Windows 9 entirely. One widely discussed explanation among developers relates to compatibility with older software. For years, some legacy programs checked the Windows version using simple code that looked for strings like “Windows 95” or “Windows 98.” If Microsoft had released “Windows 9,” those programs might have mistakenly assumed the system was an older Windows 9x version, causing compatibility issues. By jumping straight to Windows 10, Microsoft avoided that confusion. Microsoft also framed it as a symbolic jump representing a major step forward rather than just another incremental upgrade. The story behind Apple skipping iPhone 9 is different and mostly about branding. In 2017, Apple released the iPhone X (pronounced “iPhone ten”) to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the iPhone. Since the company was marking a decade of the device, it made more marketing sense to jump directly from iPhone 8 to iPhone X rather than release an iPhone 9 right before the anniversary model. The missing “9” isn’t a shared conspiracy or secret tech superstition. Microsoft skipped it largely for technical and compatibility reasons, while Apple skipped it mainly for marketing and anniversary branding. Different reasons… same missing number.
In my career defending academic freedom and free speech, I never saw anything become as immediately radioactive as views that ran counter to the narrative on trans issues. Papers were retracted, compelled speech was treated as normal, and people were canceled for saying things that would have sounded like common sense just a few years earlier. It seemed to become a kind of secular blasphemy overnight. And usually, that is a sign that the true believers know, at some level, that they are on shaky ground. @hoovlet
Theres so much that won't survive. It's easy to forget the absurd amount of prosperity the west had even post 2008. 90% of the stuff you enjoy simply won't exist in a brass tacks recovery economy. Doordash, streamers, paid tweets, ai. It's all about to get wiped out.
I don't do this very often, but my family needs help. Unfortunately, in spite of tapping all our resources we're still well behind on rent for the month. We would greatly appreciate any help anyone would care to give. (Links in reply) #TransCrowdFund #DisabilityCrowdFund
