Scrolling by and saw "Helen's argument is absurd".
1st thought = Helen who?
2nd thought = betcha it's Lewis.
Yep. * sigh *
I haven't shared my videos in ages, but this one needs to go around again.
Misaligned or 'crossed' eyes is a legit medical condition - not a choice, not a sign of intellecutal or moral failure. A LOT of ppl are shgowing their ablist asses r.n.

There's so little awareness or understanding of it that by the end of the day someone's gonna tell me off for making too big of a deal about it in this post. Or say it's not really a disease or ablism (I get this on evey. damn. time.), or that there's no real discrimination here.
* sigh *
I can't tell you how many 'otherwise good' creators, performers, etc I have unfollowed for this kind of shit.
I spent my entire childhood in physio & surgeries that would make most adults faint in order to keep the sight in my right eye because of this disease.
But it's fucking hilarious, right!!
The clip is here, and the news item with the ablist comments are the 1st story: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ad9I...

Whelp, that's me done with this show and the cast!
Yes, Kash Patel is a rotten piece of crap, but he is not a rotten piece of crap because his eyes are mis-aligned.
It's a geniune medical condition that isn't treatable on all casses, so yes, this is blatant ableism.

That would have been such an amazing pairing!
Yep!
Oooof, that's rough. Hope you feel better soon.
There's a Sir Terry Pratchett quote for everything, and I can think of few people as deserving of having one dedicated to them as Oddnon!
Well said, Sara.

Thanks!!
Nice!!
I was a Pathfinder & Ranger Guider for several years (several years ago now). They're awesome.
Does small, local news count? Cuz some friends & I started a plucky lil' nonprofit last year, and we've reached more members than we ever dreamed of and we're blown away by the response!

That explains a lot!
Ooooo!!! I know what it is, but I can't tell ya yet! :D
Foam roller was a great example of this several years ago. Resistance bands were the same a decade or so before.
They can't solve all your problems, but they're good tools for the things they're good at doing!
The tools aren't a lie, but the pseudo-science claims about what they can achieve are.
Perpetual problem with fitness things. An influencer peddling their own product line will promise you the moon with it. Ppl rightly question the validity of the claim. Meanwhile the real, i.e. non-magical, value of the product disappears completely. #sigh #agnotology.
Gotta"yes and" the bit about creatine in this article. Does creatine 'work'? Yes... depending on your understanding of 'work'. It does *not* work the way influencers suggest. You have to weight train with actual heavy weights, for starters!
