  The nice thing about science is that it can reevaluate studies, correct mistakes, make new discoveries… Science-based medicine is not and will never be perfect, but has the potential to get better and better. Methods not proven by science to be beneficial are not trustworthy, and it doesn’t matter whether they’re viewed as part of mainstream or alternative medicine.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨You're cured!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Chiropractors still use the ghost-taught tricks. Doctors moved on to use scientifically proven practices. They are not the same.

  Well, at least we all know they’re very smooth ;)

  But it’s not, so you need blueberries to be able to stack waffles reliably.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨optimal amount of syrup⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Why even have a waffle at all, let’s drink the syrup!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨optimal amount of syrup⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It holds blueberries very well too!

  Wait! Do sharks eat pumpkins?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Wonder what their cousins liked to snack on...⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I think “overgrown lizard” is perfectly acceptable. You’re referring to their form, not ancestry ;)

  My cat used to love whole olives.

  Just an awkward wording.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Could my daughter, who is a lawyer, defend my son’s girlfriend, who killed my cousin’s family in a DUI accident?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Both the 16-year-old and the 2-year-old have the same mom - OP’s mom.

  It IS supposed to be hot…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What a nice blue and black dress.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The original can be interpreted in two ways either as the dress being in too much light, which was the actual case, or as the dress being in the shadow compared to the light background - which explains the blue tint as the effect of the shadow and leads to the gold and white perception.

  That was meant as another example of people for whom trying the diet can be relevant.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can't wait for summer roadtrips <3⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The guy I was talking about in the first paragraph was a celiac.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can't wait for summer roadtrips <3⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Single cell cyanonacteria ftw though! They bow to no one, they’re self sufficient, they don’t enslave or eat others.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can't wait for summer roadtrips <3⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I know a case like that. He was unfortunate enough to have doctors that were unable to diagnose him properly. When he started the diet in his thirties and his absolutely debilitating health condition got a lot better in so many ways, it was such a relief!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Would you ever call your son a disappointment?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yep, that can be an extreme case where it could be used. I think it gets used by abusive or just clueless parents more often though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Would you ever call your son a disappointment?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  There can be both toxic positivity and toxic negativity. It’s good to be aware you can do damage with words. It greatly depends on the situation and words and nonverbal language used. I also feel like saying you’re disappointed by the son’s concrete behaviour is ok, while saying he’s a disappointment (in his whole) is a heavy caliber - maybe the meaning varies regionally or something?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Would you ever call your son a disappointment?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  If he turned out to be a cold psychopatic serial killer, I would.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Would you ever call your son a disappointment?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s normal to express emotions and it’s good to learn to first process them properly and then express them in a healthy way that is not harmful for others.

  How about Lower Decks? I found them very satisfying.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I think love here means falling in love, in an erotic way. The broad term “love” complicates communication sometimes.
