One of his YouTube videos does have a thumbnail of Pinocchio with his long nose covered in screaming, toothy mouths, and that's pretty fucking metal, so I'll give him points for that
chemo is also the second worst thing ever
first thing is the cancer itself
I have no doubt that in the future it will be looked upon like the shit they did during the medieval times
The stuff they did during medieval times was usually pretty worthless. A better comparison would be to some old treatment that was necessary at the time but no longer has to be done.

Yeah, many forms of chemotherapy are basically poisoning the body in the hopes of killing off the cancer first before it trashes the rest of your body. Many cancers, due to their high growth rate, are disproportionately affected by the poison compared to the rest of you. It is better than the alternative (certain death), but it is very much a "we had to burn the village to save it" paradox.
Peterson's big book, Maps of Meaning, is a grand attempt to understand how our personal and communal mythologies shape our values, and how our values motivate us more than seemingly concrete forces
That is something interesting to explore, absolutely, but his approach seems very strange and his conclusions weirdly distorted

Oh man. I ordered some more Gay Super UnderwearTM and now my FB is occasionally graced by very buff Australian men in speedos. It's quite comical.

Like full abdominal surgery for removing a gall bladder.
I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.

Like the old Rabies treatment that was still around when I was a kid. Like 10 extremely painful shots injected into your abdobmen / stomach or some shit.

A closer analog would be using mercury to treat syphilis. It worked, if you didn't die of mercury poisoning. :-P

I meant to share to this from earlier in the week, and I’m posting it before I forget.
So, I was doing an lfg group on Monday for a Destiny raid, trying to chase some sweet new exotics drops. One guy put it together and so we were all strangers to each other, the way God intended the internet to work. Through party chat you could hear one teammate constantly dealing with some kid that was next to him throughout the early encounters. At some point, clearly annoyed, he said something a little cross at the kid. I thought “If I had a kid I would never do that. No matter the time, place, and circumstances I would be a paragon of patience, love, and understanding.” And then someone else actually opened their mouth and said something to him about it, and it was the fastest I’ve ever seen a raid team disintegrate. I wish I had the new popcorn emote handy, because not only did the dad lose it and and go at it with that guy, but two other people in chat picked sides and joined the argument.
Some would say I didn’t get loot, but the real loot is those once in a life experiences, also I got the actual loot later.
I've been watching Call the Midwife with Mrs. DoctorArch and now I'm thinking of all of them in a post-apocalyptic landscape where the midwives and nuns rule with an iron fist in the matriarchical world of darkness.

Someone actually came out and said that our governor was gay in a...not very nice way... and not with her permission.
Most people have already heard it before and I was kind of angry that she went populist and is hiding it..vehemently like she is sides with anti-LGBTQ stuff just to solidify her political power
Kind of like a female George Wallace.
Anyways
No matter how fake and terrible someone is being you shouldn't try to out them to the world like that

A lot of medicine is various versions of "well, it is less likely to kill you than the problem so..."
All medicine, really. The safety standards for cancer treatment are lower than for other conditions, because of the urgency.
This. Or, in many cases, a lack of any treatment protocol that works as effectively as, say, R-CHOP for lymphoma.
The immunotherapy stuff is pretty promising! The side effects are big, of course, but it is very much in the "potential cure" realm. It's what Jimmy Carter received for his cancer (in addition to radiation, surgery, and other chemo, of course), and he's in remission.

I saw that and was like "oh boy, this is going to create another big debate on whether it is ok for LGBT people to out LGBT people who are actively harming other LGBT people."
I did hear a recent talk about a really cool discovery relating to a way many cancer types use to become resistant to therapy. The cool part was that in they state they become susceptible to a different set of existing therapeutics. So you would treat normally, then dose a second set of compounds once the cancer had gone into a dormant/resistant state.

It has. But damn, it is so so hard on the folks that go through it. Especially if you're older.
I can see why folks would like to try as much as possible before going through the awful shit chemo puts your body through.
