Speaking of someone who actually does have a substance abuse problem, Don Jr. lost another fight with reality here. I know it's probably not physically possible to be dumber than Eric, but you gotta admire the effort.

It's kind of funny to see these right wingers drooling over RFK's message about health, whereas when Michelle Obama had the audacity to say "Hey, how about we feed kids some healthy foods once in a while" they lost their fucking minds.

There's also the fact that, again for the first time in human history, companies are literally giving top scientists high-paying jobs in order to create the most hyper-palatable foods in history full of addictive properties like Doritos. And fast-food companies target poor people with...
I assume this should be common knowledge, but it's worth highlighting for anyone who's never really thought about it in these terms. But yes, we have needed to conserve body fat to get us through famines and hard times for all of human history, ie. millions of years.
Compared to the amount of...
Read the paragraph below, and tell me what response makes more sense.
(1) Diabetes and obesity are an epidemic. Nothing is working and the problem just keeps getting worse. Let's try something different.
(2) Losers eat too much derpa derpa derpa just eat less derpas, duh. It's not even 50% of...
Your thought process and logic are so flawed, it really does make me wonder if this is a parody account after all.
Then I remember that so many right-wingers have no empathy for other people, it's just pure selfish self-absorption. Only once someone you know personally is struggling with...
I hope next time you or anyone in your family needs prescription drugs that are covered by your health care package that you will insist on paying full price instead because that's communism. Also, if FlyGuy's employer and/or health care provider are "subsidizing" the cost of drugs that FlyGuy...
Yup, everything has pros and cons. It's naive to think otherwise, there is no miracle drug.
But as HL says, the benefit to society is that the government spending a little money subsidizing the cost of ozempic will save trillions of dollars in future health care costs. And that also leads to...
Ozempic helps the body secrete less glucagon (which makes blood sugar go up), and make more insulin. The main effect is that it significantly reduces appetite, and also causes the body to digest food slower.
The end result is that people eat a lot less while taking these drugs, thus leading to...
I've seen a lot of research and discussion on this issue. Every single drug has side effects. But the data I've seen so far is pretty clear, the benefits far outweigh the negatives as far as reducing obesity, which is already leading to significant positive health outcomes in the general...
is there seriously not one issue you can be on the right side of? It really is amazing. Yes these drugs are relatively new and need to be studied for sure, but there's no question they're effective in helping millions of people lose weight. This will lead to significant reduction in future...
