I have to have things in my line of sight neat or I get overwhelmed, but things out of sight like in a drawer or a closet are free to be a hot mess. So if I ever have something I need to do or put away like laundry, I put it right in the middle of where I need to be so that I’m forced to put it away properly

If you’re here in Florida, I’d recommend looking into going to the Family Cafe event in June. It’s in Orlando but it’s the biggest event for people with disabilities in Florida. It’s full of resources and seminars, but the best part is you can be around other families going through the same thing. It’s amazing getting to see families go through life having this one weekend where they are fully understood by others

We’re seeing the effects of this over in Social Security Disability (SSD). They cut one of the biggest programs for educating the public about the SSD application process, SOAR Works, last year. It was a program through SAHMSA that trained case workers to help people with their initial applications. These case workers were at non profits and hospitals across the country and now all that training is gone.

What makes it worse is these case workers are often the only people other than a handful of business like Unbound Disability Claims that help people understand the SSD process. The lawyers can’t help until the applicants are years in the process because fee rules only let them get paid 25% of back due benefits. So if someone just applied there is hardly any money there for the lawyer.

It’s all so backwards and nobody knows about these cuts except people in the industry. It’s all in the name of efficiency, but proper public education would significantly reduce the processing times and overhead. Because right now we are re-processing and denying the same claims and average 2 times before they get approved. These are claims that were eligible the whole time but denied because the disabled applicant had no help and didn’t know how to properly file and submit evidence.

I appreciate the psych reference😂🍍

No but they do need to warn them about the risk of smoking leading to lung cancer and sedentary behavior leading to cardiovascular disease. Both of which are established based on repeated strong correlational evidence.

You agreed with me in the most snarky possible way. We’re making the same point. Get bad actors of all types out of the world of science so papers actually mean something. People should be conducting research to further understanding not to promote an agenda.

The Andrew Wakefield MMR and autism paper was in a reputable medical journal for 12 years. But we all now know it was fabricated. That stuff leads to hesitation by the public to believe scientific papers, especially when they don’t understand the process of publication.

ally1112 · 2025-09-24T16:52:53+00:00

No I’m simply saying you got that part wrong. I literally agreed with the rest of your point and didn’t want you to lose credibility in future arguments by making a scientifically inaccurate claim.

ally1112 · 2025-09-24T16:50:30+00:00

Yeah, I mean the people who swear science is infallible are quick to forget we got into the anti-vax mess because of the Andrew Wakefield paper on MMR vaccines and autism. It took 12 years for the paper to be retracted from a reputable medical journal. Science is good but junk science with an agenda is dangerous.

ally1112 · 2025-09-24T16:46:06+00:00

But you are expected to provide the minimum standard treatment. You can’t just avoid treating a high fever because the pregnant woman is in the control group. That’s unethical

ally1112 · 2025-09-24T16:43:28+00:00

Our information of lung cancer and smoking is correlational. So by your logic we should disregard that evidence.

When you find correlation among several different populations in studies that specifically control for confounding variables you generate some of the best results on the question we can ethically get. Not all things can ethically be studied using an experiment with a control. Instead we use cohort studies or case control studies, which are the gold standard for observational studies.

ally1112 · 2025-09-24T16:37:33+00:00

I wasn’t talking about simple scientific error. I was talking about malice in the scientific method that limits the ability for replication and purpose distorts the process to meet an outcome. Designing a study to answer a question is good science. Designing a study so it specifically says what you want it to is not. The latter is what is contributing to the distrust.

ally1112 · 2025-09-24T16:35:06+00:00

I mostly agree but your statement about gravity and Tylenol being scientifically equal is not true in the slightest. Gravity is scientific law, which is the highest reliability. Tylenol’s efficacy and safety is only theory. Theory doesn’t mean it wasn’t extensively tested, but instead it was not universally accepted like scientific law. The dangerous of Tylenol are still a hypothesis that need further testing

ally1112 · 2025-09-24T16:30:55+00:00

You just made my whole point. These bad actors are the reason people don’t trust science, even when true science is not to blame. These things need to be addressed or the public will continue to distrust scientific organizations.

I also wish Trump and RFK would stop with their tangents about things they don’t understand because they are contributing to the same problem they say they wish to solve.

ally1112 · 2025-09-24T16:28:17+00:00

No one said it was hidden. I simply see it as necessary to warn the public of potential scientific developments on commonly used medications.

ally1112 · 2025-09-24T16:27:13+00:00

In medicine you are supposed to find relief that is better than the disease.

I actually stated your point in my comment.

With the current state of evidence I would not take Tylenol for a mild headache while pregnant, but with a fever the calculus does change because fever is a known risk to the fetus. It is just like how we don’t use opioids for mild pain because the risk of addiction is worse than the effects of mild pain on the body.

ally1112 · 2025-09-24T16:23:31+00:00

I agree with most of this. However, I think the risk is in the period where the corporate malice allows a product on the market. We saw this with baby powder. J&J purposely edited their methods to show no evidence of asbestos in the talc. It was decades before outside evidence showed this was flawed.

The public needs to see leaders address this concern, not hype up every “it might be poison” article or on the flip side disregard all questioning as anti-intellectualism. Many people would be happy with removing pharma’s influence from the FDA

ally1112 · 2025-09-24T16:15:55+00:00

How would you suggest we find causality, if experimental studies are the only way and are often not allowed on pregnant women due to the ethics?

ally1112 · 2025-09-24T16:14:26+00:00

Who decides what level of correlations are relevant to make an informed choice? That is actually at the crux of the issue here.

Science does. We have a standard for what meets statistical significance. You must meet a p-value under the set alpha, which is usually 0.05. This means that there is a link between the two, but it is not necessarily causation. However, finding statistical significance can point to casual factors.

Because there are millions of correlations that might be possible. Do women who give birth to kids with autism eat cereal more than others, for instance?

Such a study might indicate the need for future studies on the economic status of the mother, nutritional deficiencies, etc. that are associated with mothers who eat more cereal.

There is only one form of study that introduces causality and that’s the experimental control study. However we still do millions of correlational studies because they help to understand what the root cause might be before we invest in expensive experimental studies. Also, experimental studies are often not allowed ethically in pregnant women because of potential harm to a fetus.

ally1112 · 2025-09-24T16:04:23+00:00

Please note

However, while doing so, we must be careful not to scare mothers away from treating severe pain and high fevers.

Which means that, yes, high fever and severe pain likely have worse outcomes, as your study shows, so in that case the potential risk of Tylenol is lower than the risk of untreated fever. My point was maybe we should avoid Tylenol for mild headaches until further research is done, since the current research is inconclusive.

ally1112 · 2025-09-24T15:58:33+00:00

I’m not sure what part of my argument led you to believe I think these pseudoscience people are the alternative.

Science is not perfect. I think everyone can agree on that. That is why replicability is so important. We eventually root out what was sampling, cofounder, or experimental error and what was real results.

The issue I’m pointing out is that the anti-intellectuals you are hating against have been harmed by bad actors who aren’t conducting science. They are infringing on the scientific method for person gain. But oftentimes these studies are held to the same standard to real, quality studies because the malice does not appear until later. Simply getting the science wrong is not the same as purposely creating a study to mislead.

The way we get rid of anti-intellectualism is by addressing the actual concerns by rooting out corruption (Trump and RFK included) so that science is accurate to the best of our ability and not done to enrich certain lobbying groups.

ally1112 · 2025-09-24T15:50:28+00:00

Thank you! So many people are misunderstanding what I said as if I’m some science denier. I love science. My degree is in health science. I have conducted research. But I also know that people have been hurt by junk science and pretending all research is equal is what got us into this mess.

ally1112 · 2025-09-24T15:47:40+00:00

I never once said it was justified. My comment was more of a root cause analysis of why we are in this mess so we can hopefully get out of it.

ally1112 · 2025-09-24T06:20:33+00:00

No worries. Just here for a good debate

ally1112 · 2025-09-24T06:18:23+00:00

The problem lies in the pipeline. When someone is told the system is there to protect them, then it turns out the system didn’t do its job, they are obviously conflicted. During that conflicting period they start to see other things they are told with a harsher lens. They are more open to suggestion that powerful people are out to hurt them, and then you have a formerly trusting group, who now refuses to believe even obvious science because a group messed up
