The problem is that we didn't make Elon a culturally radioactive laughstock when he baselessly called that Thai cave rescuer a pedophile. That was a goldmine for all the gossip and comedy media to strip bare, and they didn't take it.

People hate Singal followers because they consistently fail to understand simple concepts like "fuck off"

One last time: fuck off, debate pervert.

"Jesse Singal follower"

There's no objective way to diagnose most mental disorders - where most self-diagnosis discussion happens. "I'm at risk of rabies, so I'm getting treatment" is how self-diagnosis in non-psychology medicine *works*.

But I am at fault for not backtracking 1st to make sure the origin wasn't insane. 🤦‍♂️

Follow up: the "I sexually identify as the ending to Old Yeller" kind of self-diagnosis doesn't count. 🙄

"Acute" canine distemper has about 50% fatality rate in otherwise healthy unvaccinated adult dogs. For unvaccinated puppies it's nearly 80%. If the dog survives it may well have long term neurological symptoms.

Why do you think officials encourage you to get a rabies shot if you've been bitten by an animal or after being in close contact with a bat behaving oddly? What is that if not self-diagnosis? If people wait for the doctor's diagnosis, most of the time it's too late.

Last time MSNBC hosts plugged Bluesky we got NoDemsUnder5K so this is an improvement, sadly. 😖

Good luck telling a coherent story entirely of 5 second scenes, all of which are different characters and in settings...

Bill made an impied death threat, got a temp ban for it and came back, Jesse Singal made a stink about it, temp ban *mysteriously* became a permanent one. No principles from the mod team, just taking the path of least resistance every time.

Evangelicals are the ultimate accelerationists. The way they see it, they either get their theocracy or the world ends, and either way they win. 🙃

The Horndog should be a gigantic spicy sausage dog (in a bun) that has Doritos chips stuck in them mimicking a Stegosaurus or a dragon head.

Yeah, economies based primarily on extracting and exporting raw resources are bad because they collapse as soon as the extraction stops for whatever reason.

Her surname is well chosen. 🙄

Though AFAIK Providence in my area is on strike right now so no one is getting appointments.

What a great system that screws everyone over but a few CEOs (and frankly it's about to get rough for them too. 🔫😇)

Also for many medical specialties it does take months to get an appointment! Even with good insurance!

If you have bad insurance, even shit like a dental appointment can mean months of waiting because the only clinic in-network is overwhelmed by patients.
