Not autistic, but as a person with a chronic medical condition, damn this hits hard.
The onshore tax havens Delaware, Wyoming, and Nevada are vastly worse in scope than any offshore country. They push the narrative about those “terrible foreign countries” to distract us from this fact.
The problem is US tax code, not offshore financial centers.
Sign out, sign back in on Boost, also works fine after that

In a more modern iteration, I’ve been really enjoying The Dead South recently
I might have had an entire backyard dance choreographed to this song when I was a kid. Maybe. I’m not telling.
I have neighbors who got a one story tall inflatable dragon for Halloween last year and just left it up until Christmas. It was so popular that this year they have an entire yard full of Christmas dragons. I love it.
I’m one of these patients. I was successfully treated for an autoimmune brain condition of some sort. To this day, none of our clinical testing has ever showed any abnormality. I was treated based on detailed medical history and my insistence that my self-reported symptoms be taken seriously.
It took months to find a physician willing to treat me, and I still to this day don’t understand what they were so afraid of. My self-reports of symptoms, patterns of exacerbations, and positive response to corticosteroids were consistent and unequivocal.
I was in nursing school at the time, and I don’t know if that helped or hindered me. But I finally figured out how to speak the language that my physicians could understand, even though I was the patient. That shouldn’t be necessary.
This kind of passive bigotry is necessary for genocides to occur. It is the foundation on which the mechanisms of genocide are built.
It’s not just no good; it’s terrifying.
their staff faced extreme pressure to provide an immediate response. As such, their staff are instructed to process records requests in-store. CVS Health and Kroger apparently both argued that their staff are trained to respond to these requests and have access legal departments if they have questions.
Yeah, great corporate policy to force a bunch of criminally understaffed front line employees to try to add dealing with aggressive police officers to their daily tasks.
This was very much my experience with the trans girl I grew up with 35 years ago. From the instant she was able to express preferences (I’m talking like age 18 months to 2 years), it was all princesses and dolls and makeup and trying on mom’s high heels. We all just assumed she was a gay boy because we had never heard of a transgender person before.
We encouraged her to just keep that behavior at home because she was bullied mercilessly for appearing to be an effeminate boy. But nothing would stop her; she was completely irrepressible.
When in high school, she told us she was really a girl, it was like the most face-palmingly obvious thing. Of COURSE that’s what we’d been seeing her entire life. It just made sense. That’s just who she is.
I mean, this is literally a prime example of why people insist (correctly) that ALL cops are bad. Because if they’re good for 3 seconds, they get fired or chased out.
My understanding was this was the actual intended use case for NFTs. To allow you to properly own a digital item. The fact that it got applied to a stupid fad right out the gate doesn’t change the fact that it should actually be used to allow us to own things again.
The Framingham Heart Study has entered the chat. It’s really the only way to assess a longitudinal effect of this kind.
It’s based on likelihood to succeed and remaining useful life. I’ve had a patient in their 70s receive a kidney transplant. Ability to attend medical appointments and adhere to prescription drug regimens play a large role in approval for transplant. And I’ve personally witnessed major transplant teams go out of their way to help patients overcome obstacles like transport to medical appointments, affording meds, in an effort to get them ready for transplant approval.
Honestly, I wish all medical care could be as hands on and holistic as transplant is.
Oh, we have lots of those! There are some drugs that we use to treat high blood pressure work by causing vasodilation.
What’s really interesting about this new drug is:
“…iloprost is not only a vasodilator but also reduces oxidative stress, suggesting this dual mechanism of action could help explain its impressive potential as a frostbite treatment.”
It not only dilates blood vessels, it also directly treats reperfusion injury, which is really neat.
