A doctor's duty is to the patient, not the state.

[politicalantibody]

Repeating, for emphasis: A doctor’s duty is to the PATIENT, not the STATE !!

From Jessica Valenti's substack:

Here is some really big deal good news: In the wake of abortion bans forcing doctors into the impossible situation of deciding whether to treat their patients or break the law, the American Medical Association urging physicians to put their patients first. At the AMA’s 2022 interim meeting this month, the agency amended their ethical guidance to doctors on abortion. From AMA President Jack Resneck Jr., MD: “Under extraordinary circumstances, the ethical guidelines of the profession support physician conduct that sides with their patient’s safety and health, acknowledging that this may conflict with legal constraints that limit access to abortion or reproductive care,” he said.

To put it plainly: They’re telling doctors that to provide ethical care, they might have to break the law. The AMA also says they will offer support to doctors, including legal support and pathways for doctors-in-training to learn abortion services if they live in a state where abortion is illegal. All of the language is pretty dry and corporate—but the sentiment is super powerful.

Um...we all know that Roe was decided on privacy for this exact fucking reason I hope. So, basically...be Roe without Roe.

So, what do I do now?

Listen to K-pop

Read Manga

Really wish I didn't live with my elderly parents

Feel a petty sense of righteous superiority about the youtube channels I subscribe to

I want to post what I think about the situation with Ravn because writing it out would help me work out my thoughts and feelings. I want to make it a public post, because I want to have a record of how this affected me. That's how I have always used tumblr. But I don't want to have any bullshit fight about it. Kpop fandom culture is so viscous. It doesn't even quite feel safe to say anything in the company of other Tomoons.

So many allegations have been proven false in the past with so many other idols, and I have so many doubts about the ones against Ravn and their timing.

I'm even confused generally about why an idol can't rejoin a group if they are found to not be guilty of what they were accused of. I haven't seen it happen in the situations I've seen.

I am worried for all of them. I can't imagine how they have been able to prepare a concert tour and rework all the vocals and choreography around a missing member. I worry about how Ravn will figure out the absolute destruction of his life, not only his work...but his home. I am worried about the emotional well-being of all of them in the face of the tsunami of hate and the devasting erosion of support for the group that is going on.

And there is not very much we can do. Except maybe buy more concert tickets and albums in order to ensure that the group can still be successful. And that makes all this investment I have with the members as a fan feel really hollow and shallow.

We can all agree that this is Leedo's era😌

1000% yes.

Now THAT'S Eurovision. Thank you Moldova. Nothing like this to give you that good old feeling of "what the fuck am I watching???"

[azzandra]

This kind of thing is why I look forward to Moldova’s entry every year.

The music video has subtitles if you’d like to know what it’s about!

I love this. Honest and unironically. *goes to look on iTunes...*

The largest Hydrogen Peroxide experiment ever 🧪 ⠀ By @Nickuhas and @DavidDobrik

[lazyhazylulu]

how do you even BEGIN to clean that up

[trans-snart]

they put down tarps so it’s all okay

[gay-jesus-probably]

I love how they have all that safety gear and tarps laid out, but their chosen method for starting the reaction is “tip the bucket and run like hell”

science is beautiful

This looks like Tetsuo at the end of Akira to me.

I FUCKING HATE THAT I GREW UP WITH THE GOOD INTERNET I HATE THAT I REMEMBER GOOGLE SEARCHING A TERM AND FINDING OUT EXACTLY WHAT IT WAS I HATE THAT I REMEMBER WELL DESIGNED WEBSITES MADE FOR EASY VIEW AND NOT TO BOMB YOU WITH ADS I HATE THAT I REMEMBER WHEN APPS WERE TRYING TO BE THEIR BEST AND NOT TO SELL THE MOST I HATE HOW CAPITALISM AFFECTS EVERYTHING AROUND ME AND I HATE THAT I CAN SEE IT SO CLEARLY IN HOW IT AFFECTS THE INTERNET

[imorca]

I remember when the writers at Advertising Age were writing articles that questioned how anyone would ever be able to place ads into youtube videos.

There are no perfect politics.

Let's repeat that again: There are no perfect politics.

You can never do well enough on every single issue to be on the moral high ground all the time. You can never know enough to not make big mistakes from ignorance.

What you CAN do is your best. What you CAN do is keep trying when you fail. What you CAN do is train yourself to ask questions that help you reflect on your ideas and actions.

We live within human cultures, with all the flaws that define "human." In the world as it exists, we required to act and react too quickly to get every single thing perfect beforehand. That means that no matter how "good" our politics are, we are guaranteed to look back with shame and embarrassment at what we once thought or how we once acted.

[imorca]

For cripes sake.

I'm sick and tired of fans pretending that they, personally, are so much better than others because they only care about the "real" and "meaningful" issues.

Uh, nope. I'm not a newb without a brain that hasn't already thought about everything you said in your bitchy comment and decided that what I had to say was important enough to go ahead with it.

[imorca]

Fuck right off about that.

I just got policed by tumblr users I've never heard of, and I can guarantee were newcomers by comparison to my duration as a caryler.

This is why I stay away from this hellscape. No, you don't have any rights to blame me for fandom foolishness. I'm one tiny voice that nobody listens to on a platform that the cool kids think is 6 years out of date.

Quit building your ego by jumping down my throat.
