I’m not super on board personally because I have absolutely absymal experience being ignored and mistreated by the medical field, as a cis male. On one hand, that makes me agree, it sucks to be eye-rolled at or dismissed. On the other hand, it makes me feel it’s not all about sexism.
Also zeppo@sh.itjust.works. Not a lot of Zeppos out here.

A pilonidal cyst is something that people get from spending a prolonged time in a sitting position while rarely laying down straight or standing all the way. It became known during American wars of teh 20th century when service members (generally men at the time) spent hours or days sitting upright in jeeps. However, it is not in any way specific to men. Pores at the bending point, right at the base of the spine/top if the butt stay elongated, and can get clogged. Then there is basically open space behind there where an abscess can build from what is pretty much just a clogged pore. For some reason this is being portrayed as a sexist thing.
I had a pilonidal cyst removed and got absolutely jack shit. Nothing. The hospital was paranoid about opiate seekers and treated me like total scum.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What happens if someone refuses to work in a socialist economy?English
4·6 days agoThat isn’t how socialism works. Socialism means that the workers control the means of production. It typically also means that necessary services such as healthcare are not run for corporate profit. Such government also typically give assistance to people who need it, rather than acting as if human life is worthless if it isn’t making capitalist profits for the owner class. In your case, if you were refusing to get education, employment, and contribute to society for whatever reason, that could be seen as some sort of psychological issue and most likely you would receive counseling. If you’re unable to work due to that, you may have assisted housing and a small stipend. But do you get like, a car? Luxury food? Vacations? No, because there is not a situation under socialism where “everything is free”. The bare necessities of life are supplied by the government, because that is, for one, smarter and more efficient than the American system where we do things like let preventable health conditions fester for years while people suffer and become untreatable rather than just giving them preventative care in the first place, which would save the entire society tons of money and increase overall productivity.

9·6 days agoIt sounds to me like a troll sort of thing, like how conservatives in the US frequently say that liberals and leftists “just want everything for free“.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Do you ever get the feeling of zooming out of your phone into your head and actually realizing everything, instead of just mindlessly watching videos?English
10·9 days agoLike, being self aware? Yes, that happens to me sometimes.
Apparently OP is “all white people are bad! the people who are on our side and those who are not! silence!!”
So, back in real life. At a protest? Yes, it’s valuable for white people to speak up, since they’re more difficult for police to persecute. Sorry you’re too uninformed and naice to realize this, so wise OP.
Pretty easy decision to block based on annoyingness level, thanks

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What are your Lemmy upvoting/downvoting habits? How do you judge posts/comments?English
2·1 month agoTypically, I up vote if someone makes a good point or a good joke. If they’re being jerks or being misleading, i down vote it. Of course, jerk can be subjective. I try not to make it about opinion, but realistically, something like “Trump bro“ is being a jerk

The one with the two people is similar to Corporate Memphis, aka Alegria Art. It’s a style frequently abused by companies like Google.
