- Comment on Why are doctors so hands off and unhelpful in the USA? 2 months ago:
I find a young doctor in a suburb almost 10 years ago. He’s been great and he listens to me, has no problem taking my suggestions into consideration, and he often admits when he doesn’t know something and will literally Google it right there in the room. It took as while to find someone I like, but it was worth looking.
- Comment on Why are people downvoting the MediaBiasFactChecker not? 3 months ago:
So, because you don’t like bots, they shouldn’t be made available to others who appreciate them? Fuck that.
The beauty of Lemmy is that you are in control of what you see, but that makes that you have to control it. Stop trying to dictate that I can’t have bots from instances that allow them.

Careful, soon there will be Russians having their PTSD triggered by the sound of a drone.
- Comment on Anyone else have this happen after grabbing a coffee? 5 months ago:
Yes, happens quite often and not just with coffee, but also soda cups.
Typically it’s lotion and my wife is allergic to Bath & Body Works lotions and has had full blown asthma attacks from a cup being handed into our car.

This is horrific, and as someone who has played around with these tools I’m amazed at the wonderful things they can do (I very easily touched up my work photo to give myself better clothes), but I also recognize how easily they can be abused.
We really need a change in our society where we stop with the over-sharing. Sadly, most of the time it’s the parents posting images to social networks without caring who has access to view them.
- Comment on Biden to defy Supreme Court in second attempt at sweeping student loan handout 7 months ago:
I borrowed $40k for my education. Over 20 years I repaid $75k. Had the repayment plan Biden tried to do in 2021 not been shot down by the Supreme Court, I would have had $20k knocked off my balance, which means I would have still repaid a lot more than I had borrowed.
Why should the government be making money by charging interest on student loans? Plumbers wouldn’t have paid for the repayment, instead it would have been my interest payments paying for it. And the plumber would still be getting an extra $15k out of me in excessive payments that I’ve had to make.

And I can’t wait!
I think this has real potential to be an incredible masterpiece that will influence cinema for generations. Or it’s going to be campy as hell and fun. Either way, I can’t wait!
