I have pernicious anemia, before b12 shots were invented it was fatal, you would be dead within 1-3 of diagnosis, no survivors. Now a vitamin shot every 3 months manages it.
Modern medicine is amazing, anyone who thinks otherwise is just deluded that they will never need it.

You're dumb as hell.
Later in the same movie, the same character "I would have followed you my brother. My Captain. My King"
The final book is called The Return of the King.

We will never be a monarchy. Know that. To quote the LOTR trilogy: Gondor has no king. Gondor needs no king.

I finally wrote another Substack! It's on how/whether we discuss female celebrities being too thin (a topic I have been dwelling on since 1987) glosswitch.substack.com/p/how-should...
How should we talk about ultra-thin women?
After decades of celebrity thin-shaming, should we all now shut up?

In the 90s, when feminists were highlighting the problem of 'date rape', there was a pushback from people (not just open MRAs) asking "how would you police it?" They'd start ranting about needing contracts, filmed encounters etc. or else wouldn't just women accuse any man at random? >

The Handmaid's Tale is a good book. But did you know that there's a book written by a Black woman about a post-apocalyptic Earth heavily affected by climate change and societal decline. The book was published in 1993, but is set in 2024 following a presidential election 👀 #BookSky #BlackBookSky

Yes, this also disturbed me. A really distressing, to me, aspect of the Me Too backlash has been the return of the unspeakableness of sexual violence—so that we’ve gone back to a situation where men accused of doing horrific things to women get to profit off a taboo against anyone mentioning it.
@moiradonegan.bsky.social If you get a chance, would you and Adrian discuss how sickening it is to see all these ‘progressive’ men praising Mike Tyson, a man who actually went to prison for rape and who beat his wife half to death? Why does anyone praise that monster?
