From what I could find, gynecomastia (the medical term for breasts on amab people) is not required for breast cancer. Therefor any human can develop breast cancer, as long as they are born with mammary glands, which is essential everyone.

Gynecomastia is linked with an increased chance of breast cancer in males though.

As with a lot of weapon-grade stuff, it was probably engineered for the desired effect…

I didn’t mean to insinuate that there never has been pressure in the past. Though I would imagine, the type of pressure and expectations changed.

For me, it feels like current societal pressure is more abstract, making it far harder to really live up to it. But it might seem this way due to hindsight.

Valid, but in terms of Depression and Anxiety, the link to environmental factors is pretty strong. Especially with pressure to perform and the ever-worsening news cycle, it takes quite a toll.

I think the rise of autism diagnostics is really more due to awareness and screening.

I always looked at it as “money buys happiness with diminishing returns”. Having enough money usually leads to a good deal of happiness over no money, but all the money doesn’t usually lead to all the happiness.

But yours is very accurate, too. While I am not sure how the hierarchy of needs is seen rn, I find it still is a valid framework. And on it, having security of food and shelter are pretty fundamental, and guess what; they are all money based.

I feel like Shadow over Loathing might tap into the rest, lol

I still really like Valar Morghulis and Valar Dohaeris. I need to finish the fifth book at some point x.x and the series xD

It also feels kinda on point of what CEOs are sometimes supposed to be. I am not sure where I got this image from, but how I often viewed CEOs for companies where the CEO is not also the founder, is that those CEOs are the figureheads for what the company is doing, take on the responsibility of all the good and bad that is happening.

Like, usually those CEOs are shackled by the boards decision, so they are the face and “risking their neck and reputation”. At least I heard that explanation used to explain why CEOs get so much money.

4.8/12. Multiplied both numbery by 1.2

I came to interpret it as more of a general flag for minorities.

Iirc it started to get more traction during the height of the BLM movement around 2020. It’s supposed to include BIPoC into the pride movement.

Found a piece talking about it

Lindner, and the FDP general, are more libertarian than liberal. This is expressed pretty nicely by ideas like this and his famous “Der Markt regelt das”.
