Given how many Nazis are kicking around these days, I’m starting to think that might have been the case. The 3rd reich just played the long game.

Tesla owners usually have to get insurance through Tesla because most insurance companies refuse to underwrite those death traps.

Well, if we’re talking about the Tachikomas from Ghost in the Shell, it wouldn’t be all bad. They were capable of enlightenment and self-sacrifice.

*Raise taxes on poor people. The billionaires can easily just fly to Europe for a shopping spree attached to their regular weekend jaunt and bring everything home in their luggage (if they cared about the prices of anything to begin with, that is).

That’s why the trailer has me so hyped for this game. It looks like the game is going to be different because Ciri is the protagonist. Her experience, reactions, and approach to saving a young woman from being sacrificed are totally different than what Geralt’s would be. I hate it when games like Mass Effect are like “Oh! You can play as FemShep! That totally counts as representation!” even though it changes literally nothing about the story.

I want more games that actually address the real and significant differences in the experiences and perspectives of different characters. I’m always disappointed when there’s a “female” option that’s just a re-skin of the male character with no changes in how the character interacts with the world and the story. (This happens a lot in non-video game media too.)

It’s entirely possible that it just wasn’t diagnosed until very recently. Prostate cancer screening is not a standard recommendation at his age, and there are a lot of cancers that are very insidious. A lot of times, if there wasn’t a screening test done for it, cancer is caught because of the symptoms of metastasis meaning that unless we’re screening for cancer, we don’t catch it until it’s already progressed.

Some people are more attuned to their bodies and might notice the smaller, earlier symptoms, but for prostate cancer, they can be pretty easy to miss and the primary metastasis symptom is usually back pain from the cancer spreading into the lumbar vertebrae. A lot of people will just write that off as regular back pain and not go to the doctor for it.

I’m already in a US medical school, and the thing the ads don’t address is the complexity of Canadian medical licensing on top of the immigration system there.

I’m not even done with medical school and I get targeted advertisements about how well British Columbia treats their doctors.

Did anyone else see this headline and immediately jump to Ghost in the Shell?

For Youtubers, I wish H. Bomberguy would post more often because I’ve seen him cited as some people’s animus for de-radicalization. Abigail Thorn of Philosophy Tube was another good “male role model” prior to her transition and a lot of viewers commented about how she gave them a better model of masculinity to emulate (particularly ironic as she turned out to be trans). I think FD Signifier is a good example for young black men in particular, and Devin of Legal Eagle is a fine example of a successful professional for those that are more business-minded.

I’m a medical student in America and we’re required to know some of the legal cases that define our standards and practices. The legal precedent that requires the breach of confidentiality to report a patient for being a danger to themselves or others is the Tarasoff case.

A patient has to be a direct threat to themselves or others in terms of suicide, self-harm, assault, or murder (i.e. meaningful bodily harm) to justify the breach of confidentiality.

The TL;DR of the Tarasoff case was a patient was talking to his physician about wanting to kill his stalking target and then he did so. The precedent means that a physician is required to notify the potential victim and/or the police if a direct threat is made.

Look into the federal consolidation loans and the income driven repayment. Bankruptcy doesn’t get you out of student loans.

Yeah, my 2 year plan is up in June. I haven’t decided what I’m switching to. I’ve heard good things about Mullvad’s privacy policies and politics, but I’ve also seen reviews that a bunch of sites and services have them blocked.

I’m open to suggestions at this point.
