  • I find the argument that Americans are fighting back harder than is apparent unbelievable.

    Numbers in the streets of hundreds and thousands aren’t cloaking a factor of ten more yet openly visible elsewhere in the world for smaller matters.

    There are no hidden tanks at the capitol.

    There are no midweek or daily protests hiding amongst the monthly callouts on weekends nor do arguments about having to work to survive mask the apathy.

    There is a juvenile psychopath on the streets with guns threatening the whole neighbourhood while America - the collective parent and sibling of them - are in the house claiming they are doing their part.

    America has been a generations long rabid promoter of the actions it itself is not doing.



  • Type I and II diabetes (mellitus) are different diseases and insulin use isn’t simple enough that diet recommendations (which every diagnosed diabetic probably already knows) are a magical missing piece for RFK Jr.

    People with type I are deficient in insulin and it’s part of treating the disease right away. Insulin is used for people with type II, who aren’t deficient but can’t use insulin well, later in the disease progression if other treatments are no longer effective.

    If a person with type II diabetes is on insulin, diet was probably treatment number one and has probably already failed or isn’t effective enough.
