The thing is that Ozempic still requires lifestyle changes to help you lose weight. People who take it and don't change how they eat have been getting sick and blaming the drug. It literally says that you have to eat less because of that side effect when you're on it.

Ozempic is supposed to help with diabetes and a side effect is appetite suppression. My mom has been on the generic version for awhile for the intended use, but Ozempic is the only one that is approved for the off label weight loss use.

Which is the reason they applied for it after their patent ran out and generics were able to come in and undercut them. They need (want) the money and shit's expensive.

I mean, were we? Those tribes are still around, the ones they took the land from don't appear to be. Maybe what the US did seems worse than what they did to each other because we recorded doing it.

Except our ingredient list wouldn't be allowed to put "blueberry juice" they'd be forced to write "anthocyanin" which is the chemical name for the part that makes it look blue. I wish they would change that rule for natural ingredients so I don't have to hear some of the more loony people on our side whine about sodium bicarbonate in store bought cookies as they add two table spoons of baking soda to their all natural homemade cookies.

It isn't an ok thing to ask for just because it wouldn't take effect right away

China hasn't made a move on Taiwan because they're weak as hell. Their carrier is old shit that used a fucking ramp. I'm guessing they're not sure they can take Taiwan and hold it against even our current military right now. Don't forget, Taiwan can shell the mainland from their island if China gets frosty, I'm sure they don't think they'd be able to absorb that.

They call him Dirty Harry because the cops make him do all the unpleasant jobs, not because he's a corrupt cop. They literally spell it out in the first movie when he talks the guy out of suicide.

The true destruction of States being separate political entities came when the Senate was changed from appointed, to directly elected. The States no longer have federal representation as an entity, now it's just the people (House), and the people, but smaller (Senate).

let me plug back into the circus to tell you how dumb you are for plugging back into the circus

How can you not see that you're doing the thing you're calling us all dumb for doing?

I'm detached, unless it's happening then I comment how dumb you all are

I'm so much smarter than you all because I comment about how futile it is to even talk about this stuff, let alone vote

That's what I said in the last half, a lot of the time they use classic demon aesthetic, but use the Shinto logic for their behavior, regardless of setting.

Those shows are set outside of Japan, but, in most of them, everyone acts like they're Japanese anyway.

In anime it would depend on what kind of demons they're referring to. In Shinto Yokai can be good, bad or indifferent and that word gets translated to demon in English pretty much all the time. So if they're basing the demon race on that concept then there can be nuance.

It gets really muddled when they also use the Catholic version of demons for the aesthetic like in Blue Exorcist, but use Shinto logic for their behavior.

My parents prepared me for how cruel the world would be, they couldn't prepare me for how fake and gay it has become.

With JFK it wasn't as widely known that he was trying to change the government, simply because information moved much more slowly now. Most people didn't blame the CIA for his death until later.

You were proven wrong this year dude, you just pretend that you're not by constantly saying "it worked this time, but won't next time!"

That's what the leftists do.
