I do not.lile the revelation tbat Maduro was the thing holding Venezuelan socialism together, the one principled man in government.

Juche turns out to be left communism.

Its one of the reasons why our best tool against an infection you already have is a vaccine.

I haven’t heard of rabies “lurking for years”, but there are absolutely pathogens that can survive in latent form and cause all kinds of bad stuff.
A classic example is vcv returning as shingles, and JC virus killing AIDS patients and organ transplant recipients years after initial infection.
And cold sores, but that’s less scary.

That shit stings. But the presence of virus rna could also give you conjunctivitis (Could, I’m not sure. Don’t look to me for medical advise, I am not out of school). So don’t take facials from people who have hantavirus would be my initial suggestion

Edit: I actually originally thought about writing like a whole thing about how the ocular immune system works, but then I realised that even if I acknowledged that I wasn’t going along with the joke, it would still not actually be interesting or funny.

Cool. Good.

Immune privilege. You’re talking about immune privilege. Sperm is immunogenic, if you took your own sperm and put it inside your body your body would react to it as a foreign body. So the testes get weird about the immune system. The eyes are also immune privileged, although not in the same way.

Let’s put things into perspective here. The virus is not replicating in people’s testes, it is not active, it has not integrated itself into the germline genome or any other cells in the testes (As evidenced by RNAse totally removing it from the sample), the person’s immune response is not turned off (As shown by a persistent immune response). This is only possible because of immune privilege in the testicles.

Let’s not blow this out of proportion just et.

Caning is an inhumane punishment, and applying it to children is barbaric. But I have also never been in a school system that took bullying seriously, and the kind of bullying done by children routinely would and should send adults to prison while being written off as just “child stuff”

you started doubling down on hair splitting not being able to acknowledge being wrong

This doesn’t even rise to the level of hypocrisy, you’re just a dickhead. An unintelligent clickbait spamming dickhead.

Let me go back to the first post I made here

Paraplegics would be like 50th in line for this kind of neuroprosthesis. Most paraplegics would probably forego experimental neurosurgery in order to get a slightly better mobility aid. (Which at this point is the best this can do. Which isn’t nothing. But the number of people who hate their wheel chair that much isnt as high as you may think)

Which of course lays out why the difference is relevant.

And let me add: That is some dishonest bullshit in response to being proven wrong dude. That is genuinely sad and hostile and you need to log off.

It matters both insofar as the specific experience people have of disability matters and that you insisted that you were talking about a specific thing in spite of correction.

That is the sort of stuff I was thinking of.

Zero mention of paraplegia or paraplegics. That one does mention tetraplegics/quadroplegics as a possible group to receive this kind of neuroprosthetic. As i said prior, i believe you may be conflating “paraplegia” and “tetraplegia”/“quadriplegia” and “paralysis” into one thing.

Edit: Let’s define our terms so we don’t end up starting an argument unnecessarily

Paralysis: an inhibition of motor function. I.e. something that is supposed to be able to move, isn’t. (Palsies are also considered a form of paralysis, but let’s keep it simple for now) This covers everything from sleep paralysis to tetraplegia/quadriplegia, really everything apart from mechanical obstructions (generally) counts.

Paraplegia: Disturbance of the motor and sensory function of the legs and lower body. Likely due to some congenital affectation of the spinal canal or spinal injury. Some paraplegics can walk, some can’t even move a single muscle, some have absolutely no feeling south of the navel, some have most of their sensory functions intact, and some have a spastic disorder. It’s a wide spectrum. But if it affects your hands it is not paraplegia.

Tetra/quadriplegia: there’s some technical reason tetra ia more correct tham quadri but I forget it. You banged your cervical spine (Neck) and now your motor functions below that are impaired, sensory functions may also be inhibited. Just as with paraplegia its a wide spectrum but importantly it covers arms AND legs (Hence quadri [four] plegia).

But Kennedy also spoke specifically about his vision for Black children. After making the false claim that “every Black kid is now just standard put on Adderall, SSRIs, benzos, which are known to induce violence” Kennedy offered what he described as a solution.

“Those kids are going to have a chance to go somewhere and get reparented and live in a community,” he said.

That’s not what the article says. The article does not mention paraplegics. It mentions paralysis. The two are related but distinct terms.

Here’s your hint dude. If it mentions a glove that can move your hand , it is not going to do anything for someone who is paraplegic.

Paraplegics would be like 50th in line for this kind of neuroprosthesis. Most paraplegics would probably forego experimental neurosurgery in order to get a slightly better mobility aid. (Which at this point is the best this can do. Which isn’t nothing. But the number of people who hate their wheel chair that much isnt as high as you may think)

You may be thinking of tetra/quadriplegics.

EDIT:I should not speculate on the future of health technologies.

Let me be clear

If the DPRK could nuke the US back to the stone age, the US would deserve it.

This is some “We can’t allow a missile gap” shit, the DPRK is not a meaningful threat to the US and hyping them as such can only serve blob interests

We dont know if the person was unaware of our policy on language use or being deliberately insensitive. Assuming a perosn is malicious in questioning censorship on the internet when we are in the middle of a corporate enforced culture of saying “unalived” and “pdf-file downloader” is jumping to conclusions.
