Literal ignorance. There are already studies.
"GnRHa treatment did not seem to have a particularly adverse effect on reproductive function or bone growth."

Puberty blockers only with social transition until age 18 are the standard of care given to the trans girl I grew up with 30 years ago. She didn't start exogenous hormones or surgery until she was a legal adult. None of this is new and the people you're listening to are literally just making things up.

Oh sorry, I thought you were talking about current taxes, not a hypothetical future wealth tax. Of course a wealth tax should exempt one primary owner occupied property until sold.
Christ how are people this ignorant? The ICIJ has several hundred people working for it.
And it wasn't a foreign government. Caruana Galizia was MALTESE. She was investigating her own government.
Nothing at all bad happened to the two German journalists who published the Panama Papers. Bastian Obermayer and Frederik Obermaier are both very much alive and well, and have started a nonprofit organization in honor of their friend and colleague, Daphne Caruana Galizia, who was murdered by an operative of the Maltese government officials who she was investigating for corruption that was revealed in the Panama Papers.
The investigations and revelations produced by The Daphne Project are ongoing. These are journalists who refuse to be silenced by one woman's murder.
But to understand that, you'd have to be interested in not being ignorant for five seconds instead of just parroting things you saw online because you think it makes you sound smart.
Where the fuck is the property tax rate 15%?? Highest in the US is still less than 3%.

I faced this exact scenario. I bought my house in Nov 2019 - right before the giant pandemic price increase. It's gained $200,000 in value and my property taxes went up by $200/month. Which at my income level is not an absurd burden.
I don't think we should have owner occupied exemptions on property tax, and I'm happy to pay my share of that tax to keep my city functioning. I DO think we should have burdensome sales/transfer taxes on non-occupying owners.
Physical therapists have definitely taught me reparative exercises that I would never in a million years have thought of on my own. PT is a god damned miracle drug.
"Means Matter"

Reducing access to more lethal means of suicide reduces deaths by suicide in a population. The data on this is unequivocal.
That's because the majority of suicidal crises are spontaneous and of absurdly short duration, on the order of around 20 minutes. If you interrupt the process between decision and action, people survive. And 90% of people who survive a suicide attempt never go on to die by suicide at any future point in their lives.
Everyone remember this post next time you find yourselves wondering where incels got the idea that they're entitled to women's affection without any effort on their own part.
Internal medical ethics controls do a pretty good job of dealing with this kind of nonsense though. You're never going to get rates of that kind of insanity to zero, and legal regulations don't make it any better.

Hahaha, he's great. Jimothy is one of his most common side characters. And he uses your naming convention for lots of his other side characters. Jimothy, Todrick, etc.

I believe you have been watching too many Dr. Glaucomflecken videos, my friend.
Swapped out the head unit on my 2016 car for a touchscreen that supports Android Auto. I got spoiled using a similar one in my friend's rental car. It was only $600 installed at Best Buy. It's so nice not to have to fight with keeping my phone in a display holder where I can see the map, and now I can control my phone-streamed music with my steering wheel controls. Makes driving so much more pleasant.
Oh I hadn't even thought of that. I have two accounts because when I started using Boost for Lemmy, my home instance wasn't supported, so I signed up for startrek.website.
My old account would appear to be an inactive user in the numbers, which is not really accurate. But also it means that bump in users that happened during the reddit exodus was partially driven by duplicate sign ups.
I know, right? Trust me, as a nurse it makes it very challenging to recommend this brand to my colleagues lol
I definitely will check them out. Kuru were a god damned revolution in my life after years of struggling with Brooks and Hoka.
Do you routinely walk 3-4 miles a day on your feet for 12 hours in addition to full time wear outside work? I'm a nurse, dude. Yes, I replace my shoes long before they're threadbare. These feet pay my mortgage.
That is... definitely not how any of that works.
Source: am nurse. Can explain, if you want.
Kuru brand shoes. I'm on my feet for 12 hours shifts and I actually have zero foot pain, they're amazing. Also I have extremely high arches, and the Kuru Quantums are the first shoes I've ever owned in my entire life that I don't have to add orthotic arch supports.
I buy a new pair twice a year.
