One of my neighbors has a disabled parent that baby sits for them. I get so fucking annoyed when they’ve managed to park in “my” disabled parking spot if I go out for an errand. It’s stupid, and I feel like an asshole for feeling annoyed. There are two disabled spots for my building (roughly 48 units), and I would rather push my walker across the whole complex than park in the other spot, because it “belongs” to another neighbor who has less mobility than I do. We don’t have assigned parking and I kinda hate it lol

I think that you should talk to your doctor about your concerns. My doctor prescribed a UVB light that I use for a short period every day and it seems to be helping quite a lot with my muscle pain and vitamin D levels

The other reason for the surgery was actually to look for reasons I’m in pain, like adhesions or other evidence of endometriosis. I have nexplanon and haven’t had a period in several years, yet still have cyclical intense pain

My ob ordered an mri after we learned the surgery was canceled, maybe that will give us the evidence we need to move forward with surgery again

A lot of us using VA Healthcare get disability compensation. Do you know how much more the VA pays if you go from 0 children to one on 100%? Less than $100/mo

I was scheduled to be surgically sterilized in two weeks, because I was afraid of exactly this direction after the VA secretary issued a statement saying single women could be refused treatment by VA doctors. The VA canceled my surgery 🙃

Bandcamp is what my bands like to use. They often have events (Bandcamp Fridays) where 100% of purchases go to the artists. Some bands also make decent money off merch sales from their own storefronts

As a trekkie, I’m extra offended that he’s tainting the name USS Defiant

Since day one, we have stood with the artist community against piracy, and we are actively working with our industry partners to protect creators and defend their rights.

Lmao. They protect and defend artist rights so hard they they’ve refused to pay a fair compensation, and have taken it further by promoting AI artists over actual artists. This statement is almost comical after it was reported that they’ve had copy cats to replace King Glizard and the Lizard Wizard when they pulled their albums from Spotify

While most of the samples passed, the findings showed that one version of bupropion and one version of metoprolol, dispensed at least tens of thousands of times in 2024 alone, had irregularities that experts say could compromise their effectiveness.

They found some pills dissolved slower, reducing the amount of medication available in the body. These were from Indian factories that previously failed quality testing but have since been allowed to sell to the US again.

Edit: propublica only tested three medications from 11 people. It’s a very small sample size, but considering the historical quality control issues its worth a larger analysis

Her husband is a convicted rapist, and her brother is in prison for child rape. She loudly defended both of them, so I imagine she feels right at home with this admin

Wow, sexist, racist and Islamophobic all at once.

There are several women just in this thread telling you that being objectified while trying to compete in a sport is a problem. No one is saying that people can’t dress sexy when they want to, we’re saying it’s a problem when it’s forced on us and expected of us to comply

There are downsides. Not all women are beautiful, and quite a lot of us lose our beauty as we age. I can tell you first hand that aging has resulted in a significant change in how people treat me, and that alone is enough to cause social anxiety

Also, the expectation that we be beautiful or maintain our figures is oppressive as fuck. Think about how hard life is just trying to work and pay bills, then add the time and financial cost for beauty routines and gym. Some people get around that by making those two things their hobbies, but that isn’t gong to work for most people

This town is 40mi south of the Canadian border, and you will hear people speaking other languages in public as long as you aren’t in one of the racist bars. Unfortunately, I lived there for a while, and the CBP are constantly waddling into gas stations and shops hoping to relive the glory of making international headlines. (they just arrested someone from the UK, so that strategy must be working)

Assuming Lemmy is still around by then, the front page will have a cat on it.

All but one of the authors of this paper are dead. I agree with you though, and I would hope a retraction of a paper as serious as this would trigger a review of all the papers connected to the authors.

Love the fake book directly in view lol. I wonder what he keeps in it

Everyone’s getting blepharoplasties lately. Her lips are looking like Kylie Jenner’s now, too (nerve damage leaving one side higher than the other)

Which distros are you using on laptop? I have a gaming laptop, I’ve been procrastinating on the switch because I dont want to lose some things. I really enjoy the control software for the lights and fans that it came pre-installed with, for example
