1/ At 17 weeks pregnant, Emily Waldorf was suddenly faced with a life-threatening situation: Her baby’s foot was dipping out of her cervix.
Doctors told her the longer her cervix stayed open, the higher her risk of infection.
They knew how to treat her. There was one issue…🧵
@elizabethbelsky Frustrating that the replies are full of recommendations for tretinoin and hydration and color analysis and orthodontics and a new haircut and makeup and new clothes and sunscreen when the tweet is a comment about how callous people are in commenting on women's appearance!
Men aren’t built this way and the sooner these women accept it the better. As the wife you should be the planner and in charge of most errands. If that’s too much mentally for you because you also work a full time job maybe you should admit something about female nature and gender dynamics instead of trying to force a man into the same role as you. Like maybe when she repeated “men just don’t get it” for the tenth time she would’ve caught on by then. No, they don’t get it bc they aren’t wired that way. No amount of tiktok videos and lectures will change that. So just go buy the freaking milk yourself
Not the same as nicotine or heroine but much more akin to gambling disorder or internet gaming disorder, both of which are described in the DSM-5.
Also there are entire books written encouraging founders/PMs to use variable reward schedules (like gambling) in digital products
“As for social media ‘addiction’ there literally is no such thing. No diagnosis for that. Social media is not remotely the same as alcohol, nicotine, or heroin. There is no such thing as ‘dopamine hits’ which is merely pseudo-science sounding garnish on a load of served-up crap” https://t.co/D7chmOYtjI
