welcome to socialism my dudes: everything sucks but because we all pay for each other's services it has the appearance of being free and as a bonus nobody is responsible for anything.
I had a cancer check in August. I never received any results. My GP said they didn't have results and I should call the test centre. The test centre doesn't give out results, and told me to phone outpatients. I phoned outpatients, and they passed me to the relative clinic, but

A swarm of anonymous 3D printed suicide drones would make short work of these fleets. No acknowledgement by any nation. Just start sinking them.
A glimpse of Chinaâs fishing militia invading the Philippinesâ EEZ. Tens of thousands of such vessels, subsidized by China, operate as proxy enforcers for the Coast Guard and PLANavy. They go around wreaking havoc on sovereignty of other states & marine life alike.

A manâs desire for sex without commitment is normal and easy to understand. Itâs a huge evolutionary win if she consentsâthe ultimate bargain. What isnât normal is for her to agree. Birth control changed women. Men are not much changed, still behave like predators given a chance.

Why don't rapists target exclusively 6' tall male warriors, then? There are, at very minimum, multiple motives here. Outside the world of theory, this seems remarkably obvious.
Rape and assault is not caused by attraction Rape and assault is caused by the desire to control, to assert their power/dominance to a person. The desire and the strong intent to harm someone.

Fantastic essay by @AbigailShrier Maintaining constant optionality â with relationships, jobs, cities â is its own choice, and it isnât a satisfying one.

When American folks talk about how nice it is in Europe, what they havenât internalized is that theyâre really saying they like to be rich in a poor country.
Whenever I see programmer salary numbers from Europe, I always have to do a double take. It's hard to fathom that we work in the same industry. With bonuses this year, many of our folks are at $400,000+, and we're not even in any AI-hype sector.

âsorry, we passed a law that says you have to do totalitarian political censorship so we can keep doing endless mass migration from the third world without our peasants revolting or we get to fine you infinity dollars. very simple reasonable stuff, I donât know why youâre upsetâ
When European companies do business in the US, they abide by US law. US business in the EU is very profitable and must respect EU law. Simple, clear and hardly disputable.

the best prompters have strong theory of mind, not the best ability to do the tasks themselves
You know how some people seem to have a magic touch with LLMs? They get incredible, nuanced results while everyone else gets generic junk. The common wisdom is that this is a technical skill. A list of secret hacks, keywords, and formulas you have to learn. But a new paper

We went from about 15% corporate-owned physician practices in 2012 to 60% now and rising fast.
The ACA drove massive healthcare consolidation. Private practices went under en masse. Just as the central planners wanted. Itâs much easier to control a handful of insurers and health system conglomerates than hundreds of thousands of independent physicians!

"If adults won't go for the shots, then give them to babies." This was the real reason behind the pharma-captured ACIP adding the Hepatitis B shot to the newborn schedule â as revealed by The New York Times in 1991. Big Pharma targets the babies when consenting adults refuse.

I canât get over this. Dems passed a failing healthcare law along party lines, then set up âemergencyâ and âtemporaryâ COVID subsidies to bail it out. And now theyâre demanding Republicans extend this unaccountable, fraud-riddled mess for three more years, paid for by us. No!
Massive Obamacare fraud uncovered. In 2023, 1 in 3 subsidy recipientsâ$21B totalâused Social Security numbers that didnât match IRS records. Fake applicants in 2024â25? Most were approved. And yet, Congress wants to expand subsidies with no limits or safeguards.

If a teen girl mentions trying to get married first or even just after college, adult women freeze up, purse lips and then either talk over the girl as if they didn't hear her or blink and say "Marriage is a good goal, after you Achieve Excellence in Your Chosen Field"
More succinct way to summarize my recent tweetblizzard: Marriage and kids as capstone is now the norm being imposed on teen girls by adult women in all education realms. They're expected to build a tower of Achievements that is then capped off with marriage and kids.

Two lab leaks causing mass infections have been reported in two months: a lab leak causing African swine fever virus infections in Spain, and a lab leak causing Newcastle disease virus infections in China. Virology labs leak like sieves. This madness needs to end.
Another lab leak: "ASF virus...causing an outbreak near Barcelona...is very similar to...'Georgia 2007,' a 'reference' virus frequently used in experimental infections in biocontainment laboratories to conduct virus research" https://t.co/Wj1SzZ9Pd3
