Proof of the indomitable human spirit.
Rules:
- Posts must inspire hope or highlight the beauty of existence
- Posts and comments harassing or antagonizing a real person will be removed
- Posts mentioning religious topics are allowed but religion should not be the main point of the post. E.g. “God’s beautiful world” is fine because of the “beautiful world” part, but “God loves you” isn’t because religion is the focal point
- Posts and comments judging group of people in negative way based on stereotype will be removed.
- No posts with toxic positivity. All human emotions are valid.
- Staight up doomer/doomer-trolling comments will be removed. Reasonable disscustion and asking for hope is fine.

It's possible, but I think it's largely been attributed to drugs like ozempic. Something like 1 in 8 people have taken it in some form already.
Good point. Can't wait to read about the terrible long term side effects of that stuff in like ten years.
Can't be much worse than long-term side effects of obesity, though.
Yeah, I was reading a news article to this effect the other day.
Hell if I saved it and/or remember where I saw it, but shouldn't be too hard to dredge up a news report to that effect.
