Love It When People Cite Their Sources. There's Value In Brainstorming Plausible Hypotheses, But Without

Love it when people cite their sources. There's value in brainstorming plausible hypotheses, but without doing some homework, they're just a fun way to be wrong with confidence and angry about the wrong thing.

The fact that thinness came in vogue (as seen in popular culture, magazines, fashion models, etc.) in the 1920s when women got the right to vote is telling. We got real, tangible power and then were told to be thin to achieve beauty, and sickly thin too. The kind of thin with no muscles, no power. It is not surprising to me that our beauty standards keep women physically weaker, physically starving, and mentally exhausted. The beauty standard is nothing more than a tool to keep women weak, docile, poor, and too tired to act.

JD Vance Is Weird.

JD Vance is weird.

The misogyny and thirst for power have eaten his brain. His wife and kids are props.

The only father more weird is Trump.

Both these men lack humanity.

There’s still no cure for the debilitating condition but some front-line clinicians are finding ways to help patients feel better.

They're finding treatments for long covid symptoms!!!

To tamp down the toxic low-level inflammation, Systrom often prescribes a low dosage of naltrexone, an anti-addiction drug. He and others recently launched a randomized clinical trial to demonstrate the success they have seen in the clinic. He uses Midodrine, a drug that can cause blood vessels to tighten, to increase blood pressure, which can fall dangerously low due to the problems with autonomic nerve signaling. And he offers Mestinon, approved to treat a chronic autoimmune neuromuscular disease called myasthenia gravis, to improve communication between the small nerve fibers and the brain.

Other promising off-label therapies listed by Al-Aly, Putrino, and others include emergency opioid medications that seem to attenuate brain fog, transdermal patches that deliver mitochondrial supplements, and antihistamines, which can be used to tamp down the overactivation of the immune system’s mast cells in tissues.
