- Comment on Harris Yulin Gave 'Deep Space Nine' One of Its Greatest Performances 1 day ago:
The Delta Flyers podcast did a great job reviewing this episode. If you’re not familiar with the podcast, it was started by Robert Duncan McNeil and Garrett Wang originally to review all episodes of Voyager. When they finished with Voyager, they added Armin Shimerman and Terry Farrell as hosts to review all episodes of DS9. For this particular episode, they had Nana Visitor on as a special guest. It was a really interesting listen!

Oh my god I forgot all about Mallory Ortberg’s interpretations of monk paintings! I used to love these.
Unrelated but she once wrote something like “everyone knows that to properly make a bed, you need to circle it like a shark” and the truth of that has stuck with me ever since. Why is my brain like this haha

Are you the same young German dude who has made similar posts to this under alts a bunch of times already? I feel like I started seeing these months ago.

I really don’t think this person has a vagina.
- Comment on Anon's split personality 1 week ago:
It’s not going to be rank. Vaginas are self-cleaning - this is one reason we have discharge. You don’t wash out a vagina.
The vulva can be cleaned with water or (for those who can tolerate it without developing irritation or an infection) an intimate soap.

I remember those too! Oh god I hated those.
- Comment on That's me 2 weeks ago:
Yes indeed! My grandmother had one, but I don’t think it was Barbie specifically but a knockoff with dark hair. The doll had a blue dress and so she bought the blue toilet paper. I had completely forgotten about it!
- Comment on That's me 2 weeks ago:
Ugh or the tiny decorative soaps shaped like roses that you can’t use, they’re for decoration only, but your mom got them as a wedding favor in the '80s so the soaps and the little wicker display basket they came in have accumulated a coating of dust that can’t be removed unless you use water which rUiNs the sOaPs…
That and doilies. I really hate doilies.

He was from Cuba, his father was in Cuba, his uncle was in the USA and wanted to keep him here. He needed to be returned to his father but it should’ve been via negotiation. The raid was not the way to go. IIRC Janet Reno just got impatient with diplomacy?

- Comment on doctors 4 weeks ago:
This is a recent problem. Do we think those purported fat genes just evolved in society over the past eightyish years, and spread so widely that, per the 2017-2018 NHANES data, 73% of American adults are overweight (30.7%) or obese (42.4%)? On a population level it’s clear this cannot be genetic. There’s been a cultural shift that has caused this problem, often thought to be related to processed food, less time to cook, and for some underserved communities, food deserts.
Look at how dramatically obesity has risen since the '80s:
- Comment on doctors 4 weeks ago:
I think their point is that doctors don’t want their patients to become entrapped by obesity into lifelong poor health, which also traps them as sources of revenue for corporations that profit from sickness and fat: pharma, companies that sell fad diet and/or exercise plans, etc. So if your doctor tells you to lose weight, it’s probably coming from a good place, regardless of what else might be going on with your health.
(And just in anticipation of some replies I might get: yes, it’s absolutely a real and shitty thing when doctors only see the fat and assume it’s the cause of all the patient’s problems. You deserve better healthcare than that. But also recognize that while the fat might not be the cause of a given problem, it might be exacerbating that problem.)
