- Comment on Gender-specific toilets to be required in non-residential buildings in England 6 months ago:
I’m saying it’s not big deal, and even the most liberal part of the US only has what the conservatives are complaining about in extremely rare circumstances in addition to other options, and it’s also not a big deal. That sounds perfectly relevant
- Comment on Gender-specific toilets to be required in non-residential buildings in England 6 months ago:
So I can’t make a comment with related info? Like the US culture wars aren’t relevant to what laws are being proposed in the UK?
- Comment on Gender-specific toilets to be required in non-residential buildings in England 6 months ago:
Right. My point was that what conservatives are worried about is exceedingly rare, and in the absolute most liberal place in the country, and it’s even still not a big deal and there are other options
- Comment on Gender-specific toilets to be required in non-residential buildings in England 6 months ago:
There ARE bathrooms that are co-ed. I live in San Francisco and I’ve seen them. But it’s very very rare, and I’ve only ever seen them at crowded places like theaters. And there’s 99% of the time additional private bathrooms.

What freedom do you have that you think this is infringing on?
You really don’t see the answer to this or are you just being intentionally ignorant. Would you feel the same way if the government banned lemmy?

- Comment on The increasing distrust many Americans have in modern medical advances is probably mostly due to our failing Healthcare system. 6 months ago:
Untrained people shouldn’t be self-diagnosing based on hearing a list of symptom
This is literally what everyone does. How else would it possibly even work? “Oh shit you mean my foot numbness is a symptom of diabetes?”. Like, this is just how human interaction works.
And I don’t expect any one doctor to know of every treatment that exists for every illness, because that’s what collaborative knowledge bases are for. A carefully moderated medical Wikipedia that can be contributed to by doctors and researchers
What does this have to do with what we’re talking about. Are you saying that the doctor should just input every symptom that every patient gives them to a medical Wikipedia? Because otherwise how would they know of new drugs? They may think they know exactly how to treat whatever symptom, but if they’re not continually looking it up very single time, they’ll miss new meds.
But all of this wouldn’t make the pharmesutical companies as much money as peddling to hypochondriacs so instead we have ads.
What you described is not even remotely a solution to the actual problem of 1. people not knowing their symptoms are potentially from a disease that has a treatment. and 2. doctors knowing that treatment exists
- Comment on The increasing distrust many Americans have in modern medical advances is probably mostly due to our failing Healthcare system. 6 months ago:
This is a terrible take. Advertising medicine makes a ton of sense. People don’t always know what symptoms are actually something that has a cure. They see an ad for a drug and think “oh shit, I have those symptoms, let me go the to doctor”. Otherwise they just live with what they think is normal.
But further, DOCTORS don’t even know what new drugs exist. Patients advocating for themselves is a HUGE benefit. So a patient might come in and ask for a drug that the doctor has never even heard of so never would have even considered prescribing it even if it was the right drug.

It doesn’t have to be fully unique either. How about revisiting the delta quadrant?

I just want a new series like voyager. Taking place in the future (not prequels), doing something unique, having a cohesive progressive storyline but not necessarily extremely serialized like picard, and with new characters
