the drugs do work to slow digestion and curb appetite so you can…….create a calorie deficit which you can do on your own if you have the willpower

I've always lost weight by math. The simplest kind. Eat less, exercise more until everything sorts itself out.

Portion control is a bloody hard thing to do at first but long term it pays off. Especially as you age as you can't eat like you're young anymore.

fake edit - this is a lovely page snipe, apologies. Summary from last page: wall street bad, reasons detailed. Drug addiction for weight loss pills is a feature not a bug.

I lost a bunch of weight when an oral surgeon hosed up my wisdom tooth removal and I bled uncontrollably for days.

The median cost of childbirth in the U.S. is around $3,000 WITH insurance. 15-20k without.

Most Americans don't have $500 in the bank for an emergency lmao.

Soo yeah, that'd probably need to be addressed as well.

As a non-American when younger I always thought Latinos were basically the same people apart from accent, most likely exaggerated for media effect.

Cancer typically induces quite rapid weight loss, and the US has the ability to rapidly spray carcinogens all over our country at low cost.

OK, let's try this: in your opinion, what comes after joe biden ignores a scotus order?

can you walk us through a hypothetical scenario? suppose biden (or really, any president) says "my administration will not abide by the decisions of an un-democratic corrupt court, and therefore i have directed the department of education to carry on with implementing my order"

how many civil servants would be OK with it, instead of resigning enmasse?

how many red states (and maybe even purple states) would openly revolt?

what types of headlines would dominate the media?

which party would benefit the most from a major constitutional crisis single-handedly caused by a Dem president?

these may be too much to think about for your simpleton brain but please at least try

if you're mid-career, you should really try to get referrals from friends or ex-colleagues
blind resume drops mostly don't work unless your work experience has a pedigree. an employee referral often lets you skip the first few HR filters

You have to go even beyond electronic referrals now, you gotta know people making the hiring decisions or in the department they can vouch for you. My wife met with her friend who got laid off at meta and she’s telling her that she’s hearing from her network abo it jobs before they’re posted.

it sucks, but this is the game. good news is if you really do try to help folk, for as infrequently as it pans out, folk end up wanting to help you too so you can find your own next opportunity. funny how not treating people like poo poo helps build relationships and connection and community! shame everything about our lovely society tries to force endless competition
