This stupid country just lets people fucking die and get disabled everyday. I'm sick of it. My tax dollars just go to killing and dismembering people abroad. Fuck fuck fuck.

    I guess I will be the sole person to point out that "chronic Lyme" is viewed by the medical establishment as a pseudoscientific diagnosis.

    The idea that disease infections can cause permanent organ damage and ongoing health problems even after the disease itself is gone is, bafflingly, something that's only started being accepted since covid started doing that on a big enough scale that researchers a) had no choice but to acknowledge it, and b) started getting a little funding to go and look to see if other diseases also did that sort of thing as well (they do, it's just covid is particularly bad about it and also extremely contagious).
