  • Why do people always assume you're part of a group just because you're defending them?

    Jump

  • Honestly wondering why people do this (why people immediately assume you must be part of any group you're defending). And I didn't think I answered that, but maybe I did and I missed it

  • Is it considered ableism to treat someone unfairly with regard to their health condition(s) even if they're not a recognised disability?

  • Just want to add that I think it's unfortunate that people dismiss anxiety issues by saying "everyone has that". While it's true most people might experience some anxiety, I don't think everyone has the same level of anxiety, and not everyone has an extremely debilitating type of anxiety to where it warrants an understanding that they might struggle more with some things and deserve some leeway or simply understanding and empathy.

  • YSK that chiropractors are not medical doctors and "Systematic reviews... have found no evidence that chiropractic manipulation is effective"

    Jump

  • Yes, there are. But there also some clinics that have chiropractors in training who aren't as qualified to do chiropractic as experienced chiropractors. I know a place where they use chiropractors who are still in training and developing experience, and lots of people say to avoid it and go to more professional chiropractors.

  • Glad they worked for you. One thing I would add: Maybe make sure they're actually skilled/qualified and not a chiropractor-in-training using you as a test dummy.

  • They have a twisted relationship with ducks

  • Thanks. Recognised as a medical issue but not as a disability, is what I meant. Certain medical issues aren't considered disabilities as far as I know, even though they can affect a person's ability to do things. Or are you saying that all medical conditions are disabilities? Apologies if I was mistaken

    Also I'm just wondering, isn't it possible the DSM could be behind in recognising certain conditions? It may be widely recognised, but just not necessarily by the DSM. I get that you might not call it a disability then but perhaps still a health issue? I'm not sure

  • Gamers enraged at Ubisoft for injecting ads into the middle of video games

  • I thought that this was an ad on Lemmy. Glad it's not, but I wouldn't be surprised if they do have ads just like Reddit

  • Is there an alternative to "motherfucker" that people would actually use?

    Jump

  • I can get behind this. I feel like I can't imagine a gangster saying it though, which is sort of a requirement for a replacement for mf'er

  • Lol the downvotes here! Some people in the comments really didn't like this.

  • Buttfucking could have homophobic interpretations when used as an insult potentially, similar to "butthurt"

  • Same derivation

  • Swearing is fine what the fuck (just demonstrating). It's more about trying to avoid offending demographics of individuals or upholding oppression/oppressive views.
