Theatrical. Lawyer. Gardener. Cook. Depressive. Not necessarily in that order. Halfway through my B side.

"1% of the population own half the land in England...the media have portrayed a very distorted view of the countryside, how land is used & who owns it"

Wowzers. An anti-vaxxer and quack peddler.
Weight-Loss Supplements Controversy During his career, Dr. Oz's endorsement of untested weight-loss products became a major problem. He promoted goods like forskolin, garcinia cambogia, raspberry ketones, and green coffee bean extract on his TV show, frequently referring to them as "miracle" cures. In 2014, the Senate Subcommittee on Consumer Protection investigated his claims. Findings revealed: • The supplements lacked scientific evidence supporting their efficacy. • Financial ties existed between manufacturers and Oz's show. • Oz did not disclose these conflicts of interest. Oz came under fire from medical professionals for endorsing unproven goods. Harvard Medical School nutritional supplement researcher Dr. Pieter Cohen called his endorsements "reckless." Columbia University's Dr. David Seres referred to the assertions as "misleading," as was stated in a New York Times report.

My God, I had missed this about Pete Hegseth: he thinks that if someone passes out drunk, it isn’t rape to have sex with them. So… yay, guess I wasn’t raped in 2012.

Just in case there is any ambiguity: If you’re passed out, you cannot consent to sex. Absent affirmative consent, it’s sexual assault
