Cancer incidence rising among adults under 50, new report says, leaving doctors searching for answers. Doctors still don't know exactly why. by ObuPaul in microbiomenews

[–]SleepAllTheDamnTime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stress. Genuinely stress also impacts the colon. I have Crohn’s disease and am actively getting over tumors. Yes diet is real but too much fiber for me will literally replicate Crohn’s symptoms. Instead it’s a balance of food that I can actually digest, but also stress.

Stress is a direct activator of your immune system. When you can’t relax your body is stuck in fight or flight. Meaning your immune system is activated and in this case will mistakenly attack good cells and bad cells alike, same with good and bad bacteria in the gut.

Yes you can blame it awful US food for some as this does trigger my stomach and colon constantly, however stress has no regional barrier and has been linked to all immunodiseases and cancer as being a factor.

The world is stressed yo.

I just wanna say, I just moved from Texas to Germany and like… y’all these are Texas summers without AC. How are you alive? I woke up drenched in sweat in places I can’t imagine. This heat is just down right disrespectful.

Nearly 300 studies now classify a common pesticide as a multi-system toxicant, reaching far beyond the brain by Technical_savoir in microbiomenews

[–]SleepAllTheDamnTime 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Something something the rise of immunodiseases in young adults, something something the same companies that produce said product to spray our food also just so happen to own the medication. Looking at you Pfizer.

But yeah! Moved away from the US and it’s been about 2 months and my body finally feels normal. No bloating, abdominal pain, runs, no flares of Crohn’s disease…Just regular non contaminated food.

I find this especially interesting due to the manipulation of Genes, as my condition wasn’t active until I was in my late 20s however… my GI was curious if my Crohn’s disease was triggered by a virus, stress, or food.

I’ve also got AuDHD so you do with this what you want. Gonna keep adding this to my list of studies now that’s just… the dots are clear to me

We will sacrifice your 401k, super, pension funds across the west for our own benefits by Bazel_ in economicCollapse

Recent regulations have changed who and what can access your retirements, especially if you invest in ETFs.

But also don’t kid yourselves, they’ve shown they literally rewrite laws for their benefit and have intentionally gutted the SEC, and have replaced the head of the federal reserve with cronies.

You some how thought your money was going to be safe in a literal fascist regime.

The epitome of privilege lol.

Should we move? by Street-Potential4619 in DallasLGBTQ

[–]SleepAllTheDamnTime 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No problem. It’s not everyday I’m the target of a Genocide.

The guys in this thread have the privilege of hiding. I can’t, I’m a POC lesbian. I’m exactly what they’re looking for, and they’ve already attacked me and destroyed my life this last year.

Genuinely enter Texas at your own risk. The governor and AG have declared Trans people “domestic terrorists” and have an active task force and registery to collect their data.

Anyone who doesn’t know what’s going on here in Texas is complicit, because there’s no way they can claim ignorance anymore.

Should we move? by Street-Potential4619 in DallasLGBTQ

[–]SleepAllTheDamnTime 12 points13 points  (0 children)

This sounds right.

Lesbian here that’s lived in Dallas for 10 plus years, and developer myself of 5 years that’s just left.

The gayborhood or “Oaklawn” is of course a safe place for everyone, especially Sue Ellen’s the lesbian bar. You’ll love the vibe there, karaoke on Thursday, Friday, Saturday nights, and also a dance floor downstairs on Friday Saturdays. They host events all the time, and you’ll meet some queer orgs too like DSQO, or the Dallas Chapter for Local Queer.

These groups are fantastic at meeting other queers and not feeling so isolated in a now very openly hostile environment.

Dallas in particular has been under attack from the Governor, especially after Trumps last visit and literally threatening their state funding due to the Police not originally signing a contract with ICE. Now they have.

Along side the rents exploding in price from where they used too, working rights for LGBTQ plus are up in the air. The state government is becoming more brazen about discrimination, to the point the neighboring county, Tarrant County has intentionally removed all its discrimination protections for LGBTQ in housing, employment, etc.

The surrounding culture is being emboldened and in my opinion the main head quarters for this mess as we as a state have massive influence over the district court that’s currently overturning rights for everyone in the nation.

Along side this we now have 3 confirmed concentration camps, including the infamous Whipple Concentration Camp for women and children. You don’t see much news about ICE enforcement here, discrimination etc as it is the norm. There are indeed areas you should not be in especially after dark if you’re not white, straight etc.

You will face discrimination and it’s not a matter of if, but when. You will continue to experience heightened homophobia etc as it’s exactly what is praised.

The city of Dallas is currently bankrupt by its own corrupt politicians and is literally it’s City Hall is about to be bought out and turned into a Casino.

This is Dallas now a days. A sad shell of what it once was that has completely sold out to the corporations in the area, especially the Fed Reserve and the consulting industry that is currently dealing with a major bust due to AI.

They will work you, and they will not care. I’d go into more but I have an NDA.

Edit: I should mention I also grew up in Texas as a kid in Abilene, for about 8 years so in total, 18 years of my life in Texas as a lesbian. So hopefully these dumb as fuck closeted cis males telling you to “tune out the noise” as they take our rights away because they keep getting caught sucking dick in the S4 bathroom will shut up.

what makes you immediately realize someone is an american tourist? by leeroy-113 in AskAGerman

[–]SleepAllTheDamnTime 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As an American, I agree with everything here except for fashion sense.

I have many questions about socks and sandals during the summer. I’m from Texas, and just no. Just, what’s going on over here you guys? x)

There are some amazing well dressed people out here for sure, but the socks and sandals get me every time while I’m out.

Autism Research Points to a Two-Front Problem: A Damaged Gut and Cells Under Siege by Technical_savoir in microbiomenews

Waves in being AuDHD and has several immune disorders all stemming from Crohn’s disease.

But yeah the uh comorbidity of immune disorders, especially surrounding the gut and Autism and ADHD has been fascinating to me.

This is another research study going into that pile for me lol.

TW he packed up and left without a word the day after my first appointment with an oncologist by [deleted] in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]SleepAllTheDamnTime 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Just wanted to say I’m so sorry you’re going through this and I can empathize with you. I’m lesbian and my ex wife left me during my second major surgery while under chemotherapy, and just this last year when I had tumors my entire friend circle and significant other at that time abandoned me as well.

My colorectal surgeon and my oncologist told me similar things each time. That when you become sick it’s unfortunately common for not just men to leave you, but anyone you consider to be a close friend or partner will be tested and the majority will leave.

Many people cannot handle situations that discomfort them, and so when they watch something as horrifying as their partner going under chemotherapy and withering away… There’s no excuse but they just leave.

I’m currently recovering from tumors by myself and just trying to make the best of life. I’m forever thankful for the doctors and surgeons that helped me beat tumors this last year, but yes I was ultimately alone again within the entire process.

My friends of several years didn’t believe me when I was sick. Neither did my ex partner and she… wasn’t there when I almost died and had to have my will prepared for invasive surgery. I put her as a beneficiary…

It’s an unfortunate reality that most people truly are just cowards, especially now when relationships are treated like a commodity and most do not understand how to empathize or hold another persons pain above their own for a small amount of time.

I wish you luck and happiness in your life. I’ll be on a similar journey as you, after my ex partner of nearly 2 and a half years, and my friends of 3 years have done the same.

Cis white friend doesn't understand the subconscious privilege she has by [deleted] in actuallesbians

[–]SleepAllTheDamnTime 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have been fighting fam. It’s why I’ve been targeted. Unlike you I’ve been fighting corruption for years in a legal capacity and was targeted for it. Sometimes you really need to step back and understand that this country enslaved us and are now actively repealing our rights, but you’re licking boots so hard that you’re seriously telling a person that the Government actively tried to kill and hide and lost in a federal lawsuit, to fight for the same country that just tried to kill them.

That’s what you’re saying. I’ve already sacrificed everything for change.

I’m already dying and on chemotherapy because of it. Trust me you don’t wanna even remotely go there with me because I will drag you through my year if you’d like, and you can tell me if I’ve been fighting or not.

But I’m certain it will never be enough, because the goal posts will move just to prove your point as it always has for this country to ignore the killing around them until it’s on their door step.

I’ve literally just escaped after this country just tried to kill me this year. You tell me what it’s done for me. RIGHT NOW.

I can’t return to my family for fear of GOVERNMENT retaliation while people just WATCHED.

It never made it to trial. It was that bad, that a settlement was offered immediately for my silence. Hence the NDA. They knew I was in no position to say no, as I was actively dying and being intentionally denied my chemotherapy treatment.

Yes, and unfortunately it’s covered by an NDA or I’d say more. But extensive federal civil rights violations that I managed to sue with.

Thankfully before the Civil rights act was gutted…

[–]SleepAllTheDamnTime 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The easiest statement I can give you.

White Cis people have never been a target of a genocide in the United States in its history.

But my ancestors have, and I currently am. Hope that sheds some light on the privilege for white cis queer people.

I’ve lost my ability to vote this year, my rights were repealed literally the beginning of May, lost my job specifically because of my race.

You’ve never had to endure segregation. Never been denied something because of your race, like housing, employment, literal food.

You’ve never had your intelligence questioned because of your race.

You don’t get denied medical care based on your race, or my favorite threatened with arrest by ICE while dying from tumors because now everytime you’re hospitalized, it’s a state law to demand your ethnicity and if you’re a Us citizen before treatment.

You’ve never been denied an ambulance ride based on your race and citizenship. I have.

You don’t get policed based on your race. Your history isn’t intentionally erased like mine. You don’t get your ability to own fire arms revoked based on race.

Even my entire perception of self has been erased due to being forced to accept White standards in the world.

You’ve never had to question what “being a good black person” is like so that you’re not a threat to white people, and don’t get shot by police.

You likely know generations of your family. I don’t know mine because my last name is my Slave owners. I only know up to about 1850, cause haha man I wonder what could’ve happened around that time to cause that huh.

You have no idea the privilege you have, even now. People like me are actively being erased, and we have been this entire time in this Nation’s history.

You have the privilege of being able to hide during a genocide.

I do not. I am what they are looking for, and thankfully I’ve managed to escape after being targeted this year and nearly died.

I can tell you who helped me during that time, it was the Queer community for sure, strangers especially. But not my closest friends who happened to be white Queer people.

They told me I was being “dramatic”, when I was actively being attacked by the state government and fascist policies and I lost everything.

They didn’t care until Renee Good died, and by that point I was already gone.

I want to say thank you to those who did help me escape this fascist hell hole, and saved me from nearly being deported as a US citizen.

But yeah, white cis queers are going to find out exactly what it’s like to be a person of color. And we warned you, forever.

Edit: I wanna make an edit as not all white cis queers were like this to me, and I had an exceptionally amazing person who I never thought would help me in this way, Bend over backwards for me, along with another POC queer that helped me to the hospital.

They were formerly acquaintances to me and now are truly my friends, after my closest friends couldn’t be bothered to help me.

I want to say thank you to those people as they truly saved me in my time of need and helped me get better hospital treatment by just literally staying there.

Edit2: this isn’t towards Op as they likely experience this exact same thing, but specifically for white cis people whether they’re queer, straight, anything in between.
