        I got checked for skin cancer as a secondary to something else and needed to schedule surgery to address relatively quickly. Turns out the recommendation is you get checked annually starting at 25, part of me feels compelled to pass this on since I had no idea.

        The skin exam was fairly cheap, the biopsies to confirm were not, so good luck I guess.

    • 1: ✅ (Slightly more nuanced than this but overall true.)
    • 2: ✅ (I'd rather not use the filthy term, "vegetarian", over "vegan," but I'm sure the same scale applies regardless if you eat the animal secretions or not. Vegans are still, by definition, vegetarians [unfortunately].)
    • 3: ✅
    • 4: 🟡 (It's usually to read my uncle's articles, as he is a journalist for them, but I wouldn't take that shit too seriously.)
    • 5: ❌ (I'm black!)
    • 6: ❌
    • 7: ✅ (I'm black!)
    • 8: 🟡 (I haven't been to New York in ages, but I would do this if I were to go back.)
    • 9: ✅ (I'm not anti-"Merry Christmas" like chuds would think, but no one should be getting tilted over "Happy Holidays!")
    • 10: ❌ (See point 2.)

    Legend:

    • ✅ = Yes or mostly yes. (Counts as 1)
    • 🟡 = Kinda/neutral/somewhat (Counts as 0.5)
    • ❌ = Nope! (Counts as 0)

    My final score: 6/10

      Just want to say that even if you have dark skin, the sun can still fuck you up. If you're at like 45+deg N/S you're probably fine, though.

        Oh absolutely! I still don't tend to use it even though I'm in a sweaty ass state (and an awful one), but I'd be open to seeing how it could benefit me.

          I'm a fellow sweaty person (doesn't help I'm balding so my head gets sweaty and sunburnt), and I know the struggle to find sunscreen that doesn't make you feel completely gross on a hot day. That being said, when you find the right one for your skin, you really can tell the difference, and it feels really nice. It's really worth it to go through all the trouble.

    I read the NY times when it's reposted to a niche communist website and we dunk on it for not being woke enough 💅

    What is moma

    I would try a bug if it was offered to me and it looked like a food item. Probably not a live bug

    Just 3. It's impossible to get 10 cause you'd have to be a vegetarian and bug eater
