I am not a psychiatrist, but I am glad we have medications that help people get through depression, anxiety, panic, and suicidal despair.
The epidemic is not that people are treated.
The epidemic is that so many people are suffering — and that some folks would rather sneer at the prescription than ask why.
Thinking of Yaxel Lendeborg.
With how many fouls are being called, he’s going to feel really disrespected when the only players left who can guard him are freshmen.
Two physical teams, and the officials have decided to make it about themselves through ten minutes in Chicago.
12 total foul calls. Welcome to the show, Tennessee and Michigan
Actually he has it a bit backwards, those vaccinated with IPV can still acquire poliovirus and shed virus, but it prevents the virus from entering the bloodstream + protects almost 100% paralytic polio, just like the Covid vaccine protects 80-90% against hospitalization and death
NIH director admits after being grilled by @SenSanders: 1) The best way to stop the measles epidemic is to vaccinate your kids against measles. 2) no single vaccine causes autism. RFK Jr is wrong.
Yea this take on raw milk makes no sense.
The human body has all of the enzymes it needs to readily absorb nutrients.
There are no unique benifits to raw milk, other than deadly diarrhea and rapid weight loss 😃...
This is metabolic mythology dressed up as courage.
I actually studied cancer cells in a lab, not on podcasts — and they use ketones just fine. Many tumors up-regulate ketolysis, fatty-acid oxidation, glutamine metabolism, lactate shuttling — whatever keeps ATP flowing. Cancer metabolism is adaptive, not fragile.
The Warburg effect does not mean “broken mitochondria,” “glucose addiction,” or “starve it with keto.” That’s a 1920s observation being abused by people who stopped reading in 1925.
If ketosis starved cancer, fasting would cure it.
If ketones killed tumors, butter would beat biology.
Neither is true.
Calling this “suppressed” by oncology isn’t rebellion — it’s ignorance wrapped in conspiracy. Science adopts what works. Keto hasn’t shown survival benefit because it doesn’t have one.
Cancer isn’t fooled by diet influencers.
And slogans are not treatment.
Andrew Kaufman is doing the classic con:
list real but rare risks, inflate them emotionally, then omit the overwhelming benefit.
Yes, colonoscopy has risks
They are well known, disclosed, quantified, and continuously audited:
Perforation: ~0.05–0.1% (≈1 in 1,000–2,000)
Major bleeding: ~0.1–0.3% (mostly after polyp removal)
Sedation complications: rare, monitored, far lower than daily activities like driving
Electrolyte issues: uncommon, primarily in frail or elderly patients
Infection: extremely rare
These risks are lower than the lifetime risk of dying from colorectal cancer if you skip screening.
“Missed lesions 22–34%” — misleading framing
This stat refers mainly to small, flat, non-advanced adenomas, not dangerous cancers.
What actually matters:
Colonoscopy reduces colorectal cancer mortality by ~60–70%
Advanced cancers are rarely missed
Quality metrics exist (adenoma detection rate, withdrawal time, documentation)
If a gastroenterologist performs poorly, they lose privileges. This is one of the most regulated procedures in medicine.
What Kaufman leaves out (on purpose)
Colorectal cancer is the 2nd leading cause of cancer death
Most cases arise from polyps that take 10–15 years to become cancer
Colonoscopy doesn’t just detect cancer — it prevents it by removing precancerous lesions
No alternative screening test matches colonoscopy’s preventive power.
The bottom line
Colonoscopy is not risk-free.
Neither is colorectal cancer.
One is rare, monitored, and correctable.
The other kills over 50,000 Americans a year.
Calling colonoscopy dangerous while ignoring its life-saving impact is not skepticism —
it’s statistical malpractice dressed up as concern.
Data beats dogma.
One of the vaccines being DROPPED from the CDC schedule is for meningitis
MENINGITIS
One of THE most horrific, deadly infections you wouid ever have the misfortune to see
It can -and does - kill kids within hours
Dropped
To satisfy anti vaccine fantasies.
Sick.
This past week, the WHO released a report after reviewing the vaccine - autism claim… again.
Formally examined in 2002, 2004, 2012 & now 2025 - across dozens of large studies and millions of children.
Same conclusion every time: vaccines do not cause autism.
This is the hardest part for people to understand:
Achieving herd immunity isn’t about you.
It’s about reducing transmission to protect newborns, immunocompromised, the elderly - and preventing outbreaks from overwhelming health systems.
So actually it makes perfect sense.
This shouldn’t be a philosophical debate. It’s a misunderstanding of how infectious disease works.
Vaccines aren’t perfect. The measles vaccine is 97% effective with two doses, not 100%, so some vaccinated people remain vulnerable. More importantly, some people can’t be vaccinated at all: infants under 12 months, immunocompromised patients, people with anaphylactic reactions to vaccine components. They depend on the rest of us not spreading a highly contagious virus to them.
Measles has an R0 of 12-18, meaning each infected person spreads it to 12-18 others in an unvaccinated population. The virus can linger in the air for two hours after an infected person leaves a room. At that level of contagion, you need 92-95% vaccine coverage to stop community transmission. When coverage drops, outbreaks happen, and the people who pay the price are often those who had no choice in the matter.
“My body, my choice” makes sense for decisions that affect only your body. Transmissible disease isn’t that. Your choice not to vaccinate can put a 6-month-old in the hospital or kill an immunocompromised kid who couldn’t get the shot.
The question isn’t “why does it matter if I take it.” The question is whether your comfort with risk should override someone else’s right not to get infected by you.
False. These bonus claims have been debunked. Many practices actually lose money on vaccines — 12-23% have stopped offering them for that reason. Meanwhile, the anti-vaccine industry has raised millions. I examined the real economics here:

I don’t get this. The transition already happened. We’ve been streaming from our couches for over a decade. Isolation and loneliness are worse now than ever before.
What if, in an era of social media filled with bots and AI slop, people start craving ways to be around real people at real events, experiencing real emotions together. What if a giant media company helped make that transition happen? Just a thought.
Ok, first off, a Tiger…swimming in the ocean?
Tigers don’t even like water.
If you placed it near a river, or some sort of fresh water source, that’d make sense.
But you find yourself in the ocean, a 20 ft wave, I’m assuming its off the coast of South Africa, coming up against a full, grown, 800 lb tuna with his 20 or 30 friends.
You lose that battle. you lose that battle nine times out of ten.
There is no need to split the MMR vaccine into 3 doses
More shots and doctors visits for the kid for no reason
Much higher chance of missing doses - for no reason
Just pointless
