You'll be fine. I had one early. After Chadwick Boseman died, I wasn't taking any chances. The worse thing is the day before to be honest. They'll give you something to clean out your system. Spoiler It basically makes you shit water for hours. It was annoying. I eventually grabbed my Switch and sat on the toilet. It's a really odd feeling. The colonoscopy itselt wasn't bad at all.

They found something when my mom got checked few years ago. If she didn't get checked, I may have lost two parents to cancer by now.

Sonichuman Posted June 3 Share Posted June 3 I saw a post on Twitter that ....I wasn't sure but didn't doubt was real so I decided to toss it into google to double check it. https://www.ign.com/articles/xtwitter-is-officially-allowing-porn-and-other-adult-content Apparently this was put up 3 days ago? It's not like anyone would have really noticed any major difference in the past month? year? Well I mean the damn wasn't even leaking leaking really at this point it was pretty much fully eroded and the only thing now is just a steady flow lol And I definitely clicked on the original tweet that came across my timeline and looked down in the replies and was like ".....yyyup..." It's already bad enough that there's so many god damn bots and ads in responses to shit that has nothing to do with the original post that this is literally a shrug moment right moment at this point. It's almost hilarious that the amount of people popping up in comments with "LINK IN BIO" or "Look what I can do with this pipe" etc don't even realize that they're not really giving a reason to even pay money to their OF since I could easily type what I want in Twitter and get it OR....NOT EVEN ATTEMPT TO TYPE IT AND GET IT ANYWAY. Someone should make a game for twitter right now on how long can someone go WITHOUT running into porn. I hope Elon knows that this is likely going to drive down traffic as a whole to the site cause god forbid someone is hanging out at lunch at work and they're just browsing discourse on whether Lebron is the GOAT or not and they scroll down and catch a post about "WHY DON'T YOU SHOOT YOUR BALLS IN MY BASKET!?" and it's some chick spread eagle literally dunking her fingers into herself.

It was a video of someone swinging a baseball bat in the middle of the night on the street like it's a sword and it was posted here so first overall question was "Why?" and followed by is this in response to something? Then a more specific why is this person swinging this bat in the dead of night on the street? So now that I know that its you, I'll ask you directly. What was this video about? Were you just showing your skills at swinging a bat? Quote Link to comment

No idea if it's what's he's talking about, but screening tests have their own costs and risks- so the question "how many people is this going to help" is a real one. Like with the colonoscopy- a tiny number of people are going to end up with a perforated colon from it, and some of those people will die from that. You need to figure out how many people you're going to save from cancer before you can even do that math. DoctaMario, elliephil, RSG3 and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment

The very group that OKs their bullshit. The food thing is actually way overblown pretty much everything you can find here you can find anywhere else in the world. And yea I'm not saying there isn't risk to testing, Rets point was very much on point as he elaborates above, I'm just also saying that the rise in left handed people coincides with when we stopped demonizing left hands. We don't know what we weren't finding back then because we didn't know to find it. That's all. There's deffinitly a worry to being over tested, waste really trying to deny that.

It's impossible to enact change when the two parties don't do much about change so that they can say to their base, "At least we're not those piece of shits on the other side of the aisle" every 4 years. Sadly, the choices America has outside the big 2 are someone who admittedly has cognitive decline due to a FUCKING WORM EATING HIS BRAIN, and the Libertarian Party who thought it would be a good idea for some fucking reason to invite Trump to speak at their convention, because apparently they weren't happy having lost credibility in 2016? -PVL93-, BB_Hoody, DangerousJ and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment

They refuse to do the math that Stagnant Wages + Rising costs of everything means less people spending money on shit. 2+2=4 but they can't seem to do that extremely simple math. It's why Scorcessee or whoever whining about what is and isn't cinema pissed me off so much. Youre industry is literally destroying itself and you think the problem is comic book movies?

SMH This will steer away advertisers as well. Most of the artists I follow have been promoting their other social media accounts, so I believe the art community is ready to duck out of X soon. As for Elon Musk, he is putting himself in an bad position regarding mismanagement of business resources. Quote Elon Musk is yet again being accused of diverting Tesla resources to his other companies. This time, it's high-end H100 GPU clusters from Nvidia. CNBC's Lora Kolodny reports that while Tesla ordered these pricey computers, emails from Nvidia staff show that Musk instead redirected 12,000 GPUs to be delivered to his social media company X. It's almost unheard of for a profitable automaker to pivot its business into another sector, but that appears to be the plan at Tesla as Musk continues to say that the electric car company is instead destined to be an AI and robotics firm instead. ... Musk giving time meant (and compensated) for by Tesla to SpaceX, X, and his other ventures was also highlighted as a problem by the plaintiffs in a successful lawsuit to overturn a $56 billion stock compensation package. And last summer, the US Department of Justice opened an investigation into whether Musk used Tesla resources to build a mansion for the CEO in Texas; the probe has since expanded to cover behavior stretching back to 2017. https://arstechnica.com/cars/2024/06/elon-musk-is-diverting-teslas-gpus-to-x-xai-nvidia-emails-say/ RSG3, DangerousJ and axeman61 3 Quote Link to comment

Do you have a family, or live in a place where ticket prices are crazy? I thought people were broke talking about high ticket prices until I saw John Campea (on one of his podcasts) go on AMC to book a Dolby ticket* and it cost 21 bucks. *it was to prove a point about ticket costs and other things killing the movie industry.
