Yeah. My experience is in animals, so I'm sure human providers of euthanasia have greater insight, but I always induce a deep plane of general anesthesia in my patients (propofol or some ket/benzo/opioid cocktail) prior to the barbiturate. Only exception is critical, moribund patients for sole agent

On top of there being no humane way for the purposeful state-sanctioned execution of human beings, there is an art and skill to humane medical euthanasia. Barbiturates as a sole agent in an otherwise physically healthy individual is cruel, especially if you're not dosing or administering correctly.

You wanna know why a bunch of seemingly normal men get very defensive when the topic of sexual violence against women comes up?

000

I would agree you shouldn't be raped, but you hurt my feelings online, so who's to say?

000

I don't know how to politely say "My sex has been in sexual slavery in almost all cultures for all of recorded history." Marital rape wasn't illegal in all states in the US until the 90s. Women couldn't open credit cards until 1974. Sorry, you're not allowed to make your shitty joke about women.

Anyway. Like every other woman on here and in the world it seems, I don't have a single woman in my acquaintance who hasn't been sexually assaulted or harassed. People know this statistic. Nothing changes. I'm tired.

I think the daily terrorism experienced by women, the daily sexual and physical violence, is so severe, so broad, so unrecognized that there is no room for nuance with little terms infantilizing and making fun of women. No not that woman, the other bad kind of woman who complains to a manager.

Are there women who apply to structures of power to try to punish other people frivolously? Yes. Can that be applied to dangerous effect, especially wrt other minority groups? Yes. But the term was immediately generalized to minimize ANY woman making ANY complaints.

I have a lot of thoughts that I'm not saying because there's no point. But I think the wide acceptance of calling any woman raising a fuss a "Karen" is symptomatic of dismissing the discomfort and complaints of women as trivial, a joke. A woman who stands up for herself is to be reviled, harassed.

It's wild to me that, while Del Mar alts are fairly far along in study, the best we have for san clemente track relocation is an OC supe saying earlier this month that OCTA will 'soon' embark on a study to relocate the tracks... IN 30 YEARS. They intend to keep the tracks here for 3 MORE DECADES.

Forget grandiose talk of curing cancer - this is what AI is actually doing to healthcare. In the words of one cardiologist: “it’s bots fighting bots, agents fighting agents, a horrible dystopic future nobody wants to live in.”

the Allied post war "denazification" was a massive failure. nuremberg was a massive failure. the Nazis who survived were, in large, not held to account. suggesting otherwise is fantasy.

It is nice to have a partner nearby to be like, "Did you feel an earthquake just now?" and when the answer is no, you know it's just Internal Tremors instead of a series of small earthquakes and aftershocks. You do have to check in California.

It is both reassuring and frustrating to search the Internet for a bizarre, very specific thing happening to my body to find a bunch of other people describe that specific thing, but it's probably fine. There's like a <1% chance it's Parkinson's or MS or cancer. So it's fine. Probably!

Thanks, I needed to get that out.

CA used to have one as well. I'm not disagreeing with your sentiment at all, the use of utopia was sincere. There was talk of ways to address increased theft theft (storage, security). I thought it worth mentioning that theft would naturally decrease if e-bikes were free.
