I think that "obesity" gave a lot school yard bullies and classist assholes cover to pretend they were actually public health heroes, and they are devastated that an actual treatment for obesity takes that away from them.
I cannot stand the repeated hit pieces on GLP-1s in mainstream media. NYT almost daily: GLP-1s wrecked this couple’s sex life! Or this woman’s emotional life! Or her cooking! NYMag today: Celebrities are so thin their bones are jutting out of their hips! Me: Anyone else remember the 90s?

Bill Clinton just called on Trump to release the full Epstein Files, including all documents mentioning both Trump and Clinton.
“Refusal to do so will confirm the widespread suspicion the DOJ’s actions to date are not about transparency, but about insinuation.”

LEAVE Twitter already, folks. Get the fuck off there.
The only surefire way to stop oligarchs buying up the things we love is to drop those things the moment oligarchs buy them & that requires changing habits and massive self-discipline.
It means going to alternatives that might not be quite as good or convenient.
It’s really hard. But there it is.
