Context is important.
At the end of the day, “female” is just a word like any other word. It can certainly be used in a derogatory way (which I think the original Reddit post was) or it can be completely benign.
Generally speaking, when someone precedes “female” with “a” in front of it, I side eye them a little.
Why do you keep saying recession?
I don’t know if you’re being intentionally obtuse about this? In case you’re asking in good faith, I say recession because I don’t think it’s mutually exclusive from the housing bubble popping. I think if one happens the other will follow. But that’s just me.
I don't think prices will drop, period. The moment they do, a company will buy up all it can and prevent the average citizen from owning anything, just as you said.
Ok then.
People that can’t afford a property now won’t be able to either when we go in a recession. Housing prices will drop, sure, but so will people’s incomes/savings. Individuals and entities that have deep pockets can withstand this dip and swoop in to buy up all the cheap properties and hoard them until the prices inevitably go up again.
I’m not the only person that thinks this way.
Or do you think the housing market exists in a vacuum and the bubble will pop without any other economic consequences?
It’s sweet that you think we can just implement social policies like that.
Only the rich and corporations would benefit from the housing market crashing.
You know what I actually want? Distance-based fares instead of this bullshit zone-based business.
No it’s the same. Then again I can’t recall seeing any marshmallow on the shelves when I visit home. I don’t think it’s a common snack in Taiwan but I could be wrong!
Same in Taiwan!
I don't see many providers in my life that prescribe semaglutide to non-diabetic people who aren't considered overweight. Social media isn't real life. Most providers won't prescribe medications for weight loss unless the BMI supports it. The fact of the matter is that A LOT of people in Canada and US are overweight and with that comes with a slew of health complications that frankly I'd like to mitigate for my patients.
Most health care providers go over risks and benefits prior to initiating any kind of treatment. What the hell are you on about?
If I have an overweight patient who has tried for years to lose weight but can’t sustain it (which is the case for most overweight people) and are at risk for metabolic diseases and cardiovascular complications, and I have something that evidence tells me can help with weight management, you bet your ass I’m going to talk about it as an option.
Or would you prefer that fat people remain fat until they develop diabetes (and its various associated complications) before I’m even allowed to discuss semaglutide?
Patients are oftentimes aware of the potential side effects and the rebound weight gain. People don’t jump straight to an expensive injectable drug as the first option for weight management. It’s something that they try after a string of failed attempts by other means.
I don’t see any posts actually.
EDIT: Never mind. Now I can see the posts. Must be an app thing.
