You can't swing a cat without running up against some cancer-causing agent.
So take most of the rest of this with a huge grain of salt, but:
Someone somewhere likes to expound that the reason modern society gets more cancer is: (and then they have a favorite list.)
Well I wondered about us using plastic more now,
than in the fifties and before.
So I looked it up.
Someone was ready to teach me the obvious (plastic causes cancer), yada etc.
Blame Tupperware, Obama,
or maybe we always had cancer but ignored it.
https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC2901591/ Beware the cancer you get, people will blame your lifestyle.
Breasts get a pass, but lung and cervical are your fault (says the study of women who like blaming stuff)
It's rumored that doctors who are part of some big-ass medical group get bonuses from keeping smokers from smoking.
Cancer is a cash cow.
Cancer is a cash cow.
Other stuff is ignored, Unless it becomes cancerous...they treat the ^%$# cancer
with very expensive money gathering stuff, but totally ignore whatever caused the cancer (unless maybe it's smoking.)
Your ulcer must be really bad, your liver must show up on blood tests, before they'll give a good &^%damn.
Here, Imodium, an apple, go away.
Cancer is very profitable, whatever it is.
Other stuff, less so.
catastrophic illnesses, they're your fault. But it pays to treat them.
Minor ones don't pay as good.
"Poor circulation" is a pariah. Go jog.
A middle aged circulatory-type guy in a hospital told me my circulation was so bad he gave up doing anything about it, (because) it would be too chancy and dangerous.
I'm not pointing fingers, I should be punished for not jogging enough. O well.,
Yeah you have a nice day too.
The tail-end /(another?) of a long train of thought in my head is a question, "Who is the lady in the commercial,"
and reddit has an answer.
The Bluetooth lady.
I'm really bad with faces and I never would have made the connection.
Not with her voice either (Bluetooth?)
Not with her voice either (Bluetooth?)
but it makes a nice ending to the dark blog. I'm not taking any of it back, I just figure you're too focused on some of the train-cars.
Boring game, boring show, a question, a rant, the end (another train starts)
"Bloody Hell" which you can't see much of in this tiny picture, has Elda deviating from her little script to hear banjo music.
So ok unless you're really a Bg3 nerd you prolly don't get it, but it brightened my day.

This photo (look at everyone's eyes) is a little scarier.
I mean, they arrest people over there for dancing, IDK

A topical (sort of) story that rivals a crime drama.
I totally glossed, but what I read was interesting.
