“Rape, and actual bodily harm” wtf UK rape is actual bodily harm… the language choices around sexual assault in the UK is so problematic

But at least it’s a conversation you can work with “oh yeah it’s so nice we should go do X” or “yeah it’s crazy out there, we should stay in and watch a movie and snuggle” the point of small talk is to open avenues of conversation… I think people just don’t know how to have conversations anymore and chalk it up to “not liking small talk”. Observation and response is a perfectly normal way to start a conversation

If one was inclined to fix this epidemic it wouldn’t be by just denying care it would be about educating people, including with free cooking classes, making sure good, healthy foods are plentiful and affordable, it would be about making sure third spaces exist to help people get out of their homes and into their communities to be active and build stronger support systems, it would be about providing medical mentoring and preventive care for free or ultra low cost. He’s not trying to help people with diabetes he’s trying to kill them and why they have diabetes doesn’t matter to him

A ton of T2 diabetes is about lifestyle and not much else that’s still absolutely not a reason to deny a person medical care! What’s next? Denying cancer care if they say it happened because of your lifestyle? It’s amoral

That’s what’s stupid too is most of the eugenics are directed at things eugenics don’t even “fix” - it doesn’t matter how well bred you are you will get old and we already have plenty of hot and smart poor people, lots of them even have college educations beyond that, beauty is in the eye of the beholder

Just because it’s “old” (it’s not you’re just on 24 hour news cycle brain) doesn’t mean it’s not highly relevant and likely still very much “new” to plenty of people. The point of the the news isn’t just to report and only ever speak about the most up today version of the news possible it’s also about informing the public about important issues, like public health, which this very much does. With the new ban on pregnant women getting the vaccine and the rise of criminal punishments for miscarriages and still births a lot of women can be looking at probation or jail time because they were denied vital and basic healthcare. Once you’re in the system as a “criminal” I can guarantee this administration will have some plan for your future, a lot of innocent greivibg women are going to be very vulnerable going forward

I mean there are people who do that and it’s usually very obvious they are doing it, not just relating to you. It’s a completely normal and acceptable way to have a conversation and I’ve never understood the people who say otherwise like what do you even talk about if you can’t even reference your own life? I think those people are probably just those “I don’t do small talk” people

I feel like the more you watch the more watchable it is cause you get more and more context
