    Okay this could be bad
    https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2024/08/08/health/erythritol-blood-clotting-wellness

    I was taking aspirin once a week or so to help with clots which up to this point I associated with sedentary lifestyle habits. Imagine me taking an aspirin then consuming massive amounts of erythritol afterwards. Dx

I know this is a joke, but that would be the superior timeline. Chad Rock actually moving and going outside. I'd encourage. Even going for a short walk each day is great. Exercise in our modern world really isn't optional. Your vascular system and digestive system need you to move regularly to function properly. You have legs for a reason. If you didn't need to move you'd be stuck to the ground like a tree.

(Pronouns I go by are arrrgh/matey) It was great, the doctor put out a book showing peg legs of all kinds of shapes and lengths from which to pick out. I actually ended up getting get two sets and switch them out depending on my mood.

      Editing … Turns out theres this tiktok trend where people "raw dog" airline flights, meaning they sit awake through the entire flight doing nothing, no movies or anything allowed? Health experts are advising against this because it can lead to clots. THAT settles it. I definitely have or have had clots for years and am probably still recovering. Man, who would've thought all this technology would be this harmful to us.

      Editing … I don't get it. If you don't watch a video and instead stare at the back of the chair "raw dogging" it, why would that increase the risk of blood clots? It's not like watching a movie will somehow improve circulation. Blood clots form mostly when blood pools in the legs.The blood just marinades there because you are sitting for too long because you are a retarded human who ate from the tree of knowledge and was thus cast out of paradise to then enslave yourself with your own nerd technology. Pumping your feet up and down can prevent the pooling of blood to a large degree. There are also machines that pump your legs for you if you have a sedentary lifestyle and want to mitigate some if that bad effects and are too lazy to do actual bodily movements.

      Editing … "It's not like watching a movie will somehow improve circulation." Damn it. I was wondering the exact same fucking thing. I was supposing that maybe some external stimulation helps diminish the formation of clots, since you're moving maybe a little instead of purposefully sitting still. OR SOMETHING. I dunno. Maybe I'm just a naive stooge, my mind constantly invents albis for articles like these and for things such as advertising claims. I need to unlearn this. Kudos to you klem for asking the real questions.

      Editing … Surely you knew in your heart of hearts that it was just a click bate article. :-P If watching content prevented blood clots from sitting there would be no sedentary lifestyle problem.People are sitting down specifically TO watch and engage with content in the first place. People don't just sit down for hours on end. You'd get bored quickly and start fidgeting or simply stand up and so something else. Sitting down on it's own is no fun at all.

      Editing … Everything is clickbait. It's time we removed all these laws and things and just let natural selection do its job again like in the good old days. Let people believe anything and everything and let them die. Let the strong survive. Maybe this is why we're ending up with they/thems, because the weakest are allowed to live? Back in my day they'd have been bullied to suicide by age 6. We should go back to the 80s it was just better in every way.

      Editing … okay, but then internet access is only for 18 years and up. "weakest are allowed to live" No. It's not like their DNA is inferior or some weird Darwinian shit. People are made weak by society. Even you are weak compared too farmers from way back when. By calling people weak and letting them die and letting only the strongest survive you would end up with only a few people on earth and then they would also die because they are dumb as fuck with only strength to aid them and all the women would be dead as well so no kids anymore. People survive together. Life is not a competition. You don't just throw granny off the stairs because she was weak. Granny bakes sexy cookies. Who's gonna bake them now? You improve everyone's survival by strengthening everyone, not by letting them die. You just need to give "weak" people a reason to stand up and want to better themselves. If you transported those kids you mentioned to your time, those same kids would not be the way they are. They would be more like you. If you feed kids strange ideas and society (and the law even) affirms these strange beliefs, they have no reason to question their worldview. In essence it's brainwashing. Their brain is running on malware and it's not entirely their fault because they were fed these ideas from the moment they could wipe their bum. Their DNA is not corrupt. Their kids could be fine and they could have been fine if they were born in non degenerate times. It's the environment of society that is weak and sick. So society needs to become stronger. The world needs to stop affirming weird things and pretending that 10 hours of screen time is acceptable. Kids are being educated and parented by the government and tiktok. This would fuck anyone in the head especially if they have problems at home or parents that don't give a fuck.

      Editing … Yeah, life should be tougher so the weak fall. But not so tough that anybody can't grow a pair and deal with it. It's about making people tough enough to cope with whatever life WILL throw at them. I will never help anybody that's whining. But I will always help somebody that is trying. And I believe that's the way we should be, no more mollycodlling! Either deal with it or jump off a fucking bridge you pussy, there's no more safe space to go cry in, and no Facebook for your attention seeking. Make people be stronger and they will. Except the very weakest, and who gives a fuck about Sam Smith and all the other weird cunts? They're the reason half of these thems decide to be theys, because they see weird fuckers doing it online.

No matter how incapable someone is i'Il always try to help if I can and they really want to learn. Helping people who just want you to do their work for them all the time should not be helped. They need to learn to do it themselves.
