It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

Someone please explain what ozempic is. Are we going to cringe at it 10 years from now like all the other diet stuff in the past?
It's a hormone-like anti-diabetes drug that's gotten popular as an off-label weight loss drug due to advertising and celebrity endorsements. It's absurdly expensive and administered via injection.
Ozempic is the main reason Denmark isn't currently in a recession. it's made by Novo Nordisk, the biggest company in Denmark and also one of the biggest in Europe. It technically was developed as some type of diabetes medication and then was discovered to help people lose a LOT of weight very quickly.
Probably yeah. I am not super familiar but I think it’s just an appetite suppressant, big business bc obesity is a huge problem in amerikkka
It increases the risk of a few different types of cancer and may cause intestinal blockages.
My mom is diabetic (with a load of other issues) and it's the only medicine that helps her.
