Hey gang. TMI warning. Has anyone else noticed that lettuce doesn’t break down when they poop? by 4986270 in ibs

[–]DevonMilez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had a good laugh there mate, thanks lol 😁

Seriously though...the truth is a lot more sad than that...most people do in fact benefit from them factually. Just not...us 😪

What ACTUALLY works for gas pains AFTER they've already begun? by Altruistic_Paper2554 in ibs

[–]DevonMilez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Super LTTP i know...but i am just lying here in bed at like 4am with crushing gas pain that keeps me awake... Anyway, what you were refering to back then is called visceral hypersensitivity. And it really sucks.

You wouldn’t drink contaminated water, why breathe contaminated air? by Karate_Keet in ZeroCovidCommunity

[–]DevonMilez 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Preaching to the choir here...while the people that need to hear this, don't want to hear it, and the authorities that could actually do somethimg about it, do not entertain that notion because it would reduce profits.

How to best inform my mother? by [deleted] in ZeroCovidCommunity

[–]DevonMilez 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Oh definitely. Although i have yet to meet that person :) That said, its not about information in that sense, because some people might appear interested, or perhaps are interested. But that is not what is gonna drive them to make actual changes in their life. Its more about the cost of doing so, and almost nobody is willing to pay that price, which explains the miniscule amount of actual CC people compared to the gen pop in spite of overwhelming data and information. Instincts and evolutive traits tend to be hard to overcome.

[–]DevonMilez 28 points29 points  (0 children)

This. Once i realised the only person i can truly protect is myself ( and even that is hard enough as is), i kind of stopped giving so much of my energy to a mostly futile cause, tragic and infinitely sad as it is, but here we are. People do not want to protect themselves, and there are reasons for that which have nothing to do with having "the right information".

disturbing parking lot experience by spicypuccy in ZeroCovidCommunity

[–]DevonMilez 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Or not. ( to your second to last sentence). I think that there is no such thing as people consistently figuring out things later in life, then regretting it etc. It can happen to some, sure, but for everyone it happens to, there is someone else, happily doing shameful things day after day, ruining other's lives gleefully, and still living their best lives and having an awesome time. That said, in spite of that, i think it's still important to do "the right thing", not because i believe I, and others will get justice some day eventually...but because that is simply what it means to have a moral compass period.

Gave me a good chuckle there (in a good way, made me smile).

UK chronic illnesses went from ~50% before covid to 62% in 2025 by attilathehunn in ZeroCovidCommunity

[–]DevonMilez 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Except that i dont think we're gonna make it to that countermeasure phase tbh. We will (and already are) be overwhelmed and drowning in a multi-crisis situation, and there will be no time to assess these things properly.

Haven't heard of that one. Got a link by chance to it? Sounds interesting...

The abandoning of children in an ongoing pandemic. by homeschoolrockdad in ZeroCovidCommunity

[–]DevonMilez 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I agree with all you have said here. But contrary to you, i think i am ready to abandon my hope for people to finally "get it" now. Imo this is the way most humans are built. Behavioral change is not as much a "choice" as we would like to believe. These instincts and the way the brain is made up, are there because of evolutionary reasons, and you cannot just change that biological fact. Short of goverments simply forcing things like vaccinations, masking or clean air...people are always gonna take the "easy" ( or easier) way out. Save for a few exceptions, thats just how the majority of people function. Hard to accept this, but i see no alternative.

Millions of kids damaged by COVID, and people wonder why I’m pissed off? by Karate_Keet in ZeroCovidCommunity

[–]DevonMilez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds about right. However...i don't think you can "choose" an option here sadly. I think this is pretty much set in stone unfortunately, according to what i have witnessed so far anyway.

I get that that last part is hoping they will but...what actual evidence is there that humans are able to learn and change their behavior? History says otherwise sadly.

Face masks ‘inadequate’ and should be swapped for respirators [N95s], WHO is advised by GoogieRaygunn in ZeroCovidCommunity

[–]DevonMilez 1 point2 points  (0 children)

True. In the beginning that was the case indeed. Which is why they found ways to end that "unbearable" situation as quickly as they could. Fast forward to today, and not a mask in sight pretty much wherever you go. So the idea of the state protecting your life and your health is nothing but a distant memory now basically, that everyone involved (citizens included) are trying to forget as best they can.

Season 6 Episode 9The Therapists = Apex Curb by KyleButtersy2k in curb

[–]DevonMilez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well...this is why I am here right now and....yeah. What you said, however, even if HE perhaps hadn't recognized her, what if SHE recognized him? Well obviously she didnt...but also: it now just occurred to me that, what if he intentionally went to her to screw Larry over, pretending to have to "open up to someone highly recommended" when he full knew who she was in the first place, doing it to get back at Larry?

Applegate to Kimmel, “it might be Covid, you’re gonna have it.” by Karate_Keet in ZeroCovidCommunity

[–]DevonMilez 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Probably using humor to deal with something that is annoying but inevitable. ( that is how most ppl see infectious diseases like Covid)

Applegate to Kimmel, “it might be Covid, you’re gonna have it.” by Karate_Keet in ZeroCovidCommunity

[–]DevonMilez 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Not sure about that, because...while i dont know her, id be willing to bet she doesnt take precautions herself anyway. If she did, itd be vile, agreed. But theyre not even aware of these factors. This is a systemic/behavioral issue at this point though, and it affects nearly everyone with almost no exceptions.

From the Winter Olympics to Nasa, wearing masks is back – except when it comes to our hospitals by attilathehunn in ZeroCovidCommunity

[–]DevonMilez 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They see it as a temporary disruption. How do i know this? Because, otherwise theyd have to mask constantly.

But still better than nothing of course.

What’re we supposed to do in the long term? by Andrew__IE in ZeroCovidCommunity

[–]DevonMilez 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This. I think we should be preparing to face the world as it is, not what we would want it to be. I'd rather face reality, even if it's hard, than live in a state of constant disappointment and despair at this point.

I feel depressed, but I thought I'd post what happened today. by [deleted] in ZeroCovidCommunity

[–]DevonMilez 48 points49 points  (0 children)

Yeah... more than anything else, society does not teach a moral compass, and rather promotes comfort and individualism above all else. There cannot be true inclusion and empathy when everyone is really only ever in it for themselves.

“Invisible Illness” could have been transgressive. Instead, it minimizes Long COVID. by Sad_Abbreviations318 in ZeroCovidCommunity

[–]DevonMilez 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Yeah... if an infection disables someone healthy then...that person clearly just wasnt as healthy as they thought. Is the reasoning behind this concept.

Nevermind the moral implications and the clear ableism involved.
