The zip tie bracelet is even worse since you can over tighten it super easily and not be able to undo it

I was on debate team in high school. My mom was really poor, so I didn't have a suit, but I did have a nice, comfortable pair of shoes, grey corduroy slacks, a grey blazer, and a simple, purple blouse. I was very careful to ensure that everything fit the dress code and had no issues until, at one of the debates, I didn't win a single one of my arguments. That was REALLY unusual, because I was usually well-prepared and pretty quick-witted. Sure, I didn't win every debate, but I usually came out about 50/50. So, afterward, I walked up to one of the judges and asked her what I was doing wrong and if she had any advice. This absolute see-you-next-tuesday looks me up and down like she's disgusted by even being within 10 feet of me and says "Your arguments were fine, but you need to work on looking more..professional." "What do you mean? I fit the dress code, don't I?" "Well, yes, but you don't LOOK professional." "Ma'am, this is what I can afford." "Well, then maybe think about trying a different extracurricular." Y'all I walked out of that room FUMING. I had never wanted to deck a full-grown lady more in my whole life. After that meet, I stopped trying. I stayed on the team, because they needed me for diversity requirements and there were only a few competitions left. But, I dropped out of all but the Congressional Debate and pretty much only spoke when I had to.

FYI Robin: type II diabetes isn’t always about weight either. My friend who was just diagnosed literally runs marathons every month. I was a teenager when I was diagnosed. I’m the smallest person and until a couple years ago the only diabetic in my immediate family. Besides, even for people whose weight is part of their contributing factors, just losing weight doesn’t usually reverse the issue. It’s kind of a problem how much people are willing to dismiss the needs of Type IIs on the idea that they just “did it to themselves” or could just “lose weight.” That attitude prevents a lot of diabetics of all sizes and types (incl gestational) from getting the care they need. Just a friendly reminder! Love your videos!

[@caileyrookids]

Also contrary to the very popular belief, is that starvation can cause it! Famines and EDs are big risk factors, which is probably the reason my ana-prone family is full of prediabetics.

Also, pretty sure genetics, although not a 100% chance, make you pretty darn likely to get diabetes.

[@ratoh1710]

We don't know exactly what causes it. Weight and inactivity are risk factors but that just means they increase your risk for it not that they directly cause it.

[@ggkkingk6340]

​@nordichope7301 Yes, over time, your stomach gets use to the things you eat, that's how someone could be sensitive to hot stuff but slowly start to like it (that's how I was) and over time, as your stomach gets use to one thing, it will adjust to that type of food, and if you drastically change back, it can cause problems

A lot of employers are clueless about how their employees live. I worked in an office where I was the lowest paid employee because I didn't have a family, so the logic was I didn't need the money. Then, at Christmas, money was taken out of everyone's check, not asked if they could, to buy the boss Christmas gifts. Meantime we were told there was no bonus, and our holiday party was in the machine shop, and were Subway sandwiches. Then we were forced to stand there and watch the boss open his gifts.

5:30 My husband has a similar story. He was in so much pain he was literally begging God for mercy and vomiting. Went to one emergency room, they saw him for five minutes, berated him for waiting so long(the pain kept going away, so he thought he was fine for a bit), and told him go home and drink water. $800 bill. They didn't even give him ibuprophen. So we went to the hospital across the street. They made him pee in a cup, said yup, that's a kidney stone, and immediately gave him morphine. His stone was just under what they consider too big to pass without intervention. We were sent home with three scripts for pain and to dilate the ureter.

With the lottery money story 18:33 . To find out how it drops so bad you have to research the difference between picking the cash payout vs. annuity. When you pick the cash payout you only win about 40% of the actual prize and then are taxed on that lump sum. If you pick the annuity you win the full amount but broken up into 30 annual payments that increase by around 4 -5% per year. The first payment is a good lump to start you off. If you have the life expectancy to do this it is a good idea because each payment is in a much lower tax bracket meaning you pay less in taxes. Now you can leave future payments to others in a will but it gets complicated and best to speak with a professional. The annuity can protect you from losing your mind and blowing it all. Just helpful advice because fuck the man, knowledge is power.

[@lachouette_et_le_phoque]

Thanks for adding the context! Also, I don't really understand why people are upset about a huge amount of money being taxed at a high rate, when everyone calls for 'taxing the rich' in every other post.

Na if you wanna hear some shit about wages that'll blow your mind here: my wife, who is an RN with 6ish years experience (including working covid floor during the pandemic), she had an interview over at a pediatric clinic here in northern lower Michigan (autumn 2023). Nice little place but she was laughing when she got back to the car. They were hiring at $20/hr starting with $150 a month per child for health insurance ($450 monthly). As we headed home, we passed a McDonald's that was hiring. Not even a mile down the road right? Up on their billboard: "$22/hr and paid benefits". We got so pissed, she looked it up I don't remember well but in relation to the clinic the insurance from McDonald's was basically free. She got a good job elsewhere but that's what Registered Nurses are getting paid at clinic. So every time you cats bring your kids to a pediatric, remember those nurses are getting paid less than new hires flipping burgers.

[@draalttom844]

This is how ace/aro-spectrum folks (hi, demisexual/demiromantic also), bi/pansexuals, and gender-non-conforming folks (like trans, non-binary, genderqueer, agender, etc.) end up feeling even more marginalized. Because the folks that hate us all would rather have us fighting each other than focused on *them.* It's awful, and I empathize with you and anyone else who's got to experience it.

I'm not a lawyer, but I'd interpret the line in the thirteenth amendment about "except AS A PUNISHMENT for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted" as not being about incarceration, but rather community service. If I get convicted of a crime, and sentenced to prison, working in a field for no pay was NOT part of the punishment for my crime, the punishment is that I am incarcerated in prison, it does not give the prison free license to force me to perform labor for their profit. Being sentenced to labor is *absolutely* a thing, but is NOT the same as being sentenced to prison. Still not property that can just be leased out.

6:59 - Ladies and gentlemen, we have found the Right's endgame. Also, the sociopathic greed is more on the outside investors, not necessarily the companies themselves. It is basically a law in America that publicly traded companies _have_ to grow their companies all the time at all other costs. It's not enough to just turn a profit. The precedent for this goes back to a time when Henry Ford of all people tried to give his workers a substantial wage boost at the cost of his company's stock. The Dodge brothers sued him, stating that he had screwed them out of dividends (they owned Ford stock at the time). The judge, unfortunately, sided with them.

That post with the burger shook me to the core. When I was in the ADHD clinic, I had a roommate with an autoimmune disease, that forbids her from eating any proteines. She supplements the lack of proteins with an aminoacid powder that she needs to buy abroad, because her disease is so rare, that it doesn't get produced everywhere. She eats a lot of fruits and vegetables, so basically, lots of salad and baked veggies, to not walk around hungry. If someone gave her a real burger, and said it was a veggie burger, and she couldn't tell the difference, and ate it, she would have either needed to be at the hospital, or worse, she could have died. Heck, even when she made bananamilk out of an oat drink, she had to share it with everyone, because oats still have some residual proteins, which is why she couldn't drink too much of it, and she didn't want it to go bad. So yes, there are people who can't eat meat, or any animal products, due to health issues. This woman isn't voluntarily vegan, she has to be vegan, or else she might actually be in serious trouble with her health.

My favorite thing about the "humans aren't made to eat meat" picture as a Biologist is how they called a horse "VEGAN" instead of an herbivore. Like yeah, all those horses out there surviving solely on nutrition NOT symbiotically derived from other animal production. Carefully avoiding plants that have been grown from animal manure, etc. And yes, animals with extremely specialized digits and the mental capacity for tool use do not, in fact, require sharp or large teeth. We also cannot digest or use the nutrition in cellulose, sooo.
