Facial expressions aren't emotions.

"One emerging – and increasingly supported – theory is that facial expressions don’t reflect our feelings. Instead of reliable readouts of our emotional states, they show our intentions and social goals."

@TheRaDR Daily Kos's spreadsheet. Not as visually nice as some of the others but specific and they track a lot of races/ballot measures the others don't.

Let's do this! You voted to read about "food as race, diet racism" so that's what this thread is about

Clarification for those who don’t know history:

“Haunt them like the already dead” refers to us, the protestors, as if we are already lost, as if we are ghosts.

AIDS help and research finally came because people who were dying used their lives and deaths to help the future live

A5 Pain meds leading to addition story-I think it sticks around because it keeps settlers' innocent. The opioid crisis has a lot of white people. Blaming docs makes it individual (no structural issues), keeps a clear causality and makes it not white people's fault. #MedTraumaChat

@alexhaagaard Wow, that's so f-ed up.

A4 Partner's driving when neck pain hits. I can't move. Go to ER.

Doc: I don't really think it's anything
Me: (sobbing from pain)
Doc: (sigh) We can do a CT

It's an arterial dissection. They give morphine.

The diagnosis was quick but they didn't want to look #MedTraumaChat

A2 I also have depression/anxiety. Asking for help makes the anxiety shoot up and doing it a climate of 'feeling wrong' for asking makes it worse.

The meds I take for depression also mean I can't take NSAIDs which I know makes me look bad

I basically don't ask.

@zelliej1 Yeah. It was really uncomfortable. And he doing great until that moment.

[invarrn @JasmonicAcid]

A1a My docs do everything to avoid even talking about opioids as an option. After diagnosed w/EDS in '17, the only pain talk was "get physical therapy" medication was out. Went to ER for migraine, they gave a cocktail that knocked me about over saying 'opioids' #medtraumachat
