Not actually that rare to see. Reabsorption of bone is fairly common place in non unionized fractures that don't end up getting good blood flow. Osteoclasts will breakdown the bone fragments that don't unionize, especially if the bone isn't really responsible for weight bearing.

The only thing thats fake about this is a group of doctors being mystified by any of it.

Feel like this is really belittling to the VC and PAVN, the Ho Chi Minh trail is rightfully known as one of the greatest achievements of military engineering in the 20th century.

The North Vietnamese military didn't win because America was just that incompetent, they had arguably a couple of the best generals in modern history. I mean they defended against the armies of France, America, cambodia and China within a couple decades.

That judge is acting as if he stole the god damned constitution or something. He didn't take anything of value, gain any kind of monetary reward, and didn't do any damage to those he "stole" from.

This is all information we collectively pay for and should be public. If this is somehow damaging our democracy, to the extent that it's equivalent to attempting to overthrow Congress.... Fucking forbes should be in gitmo for their "richest people" articles.

The simple fact that they advertise their wealth, while simultaneously screaming treason about their tax records being released tells you all you really need to know about the American tax system. In a fair system we should be able to work out exactly how much tax everyone pays by their net worth, instead someone's going to jail for lifting a corner of the veil that these rich fucks hide behind.

blocking puberty has some crazy side effects.

I'm a provider at a children's hospital. I specialize in orthopedics and rehabilitation, so I mostly deal with the musculoskeletal system. I have colleagues who would be able to provide a much better and more in depth explanation, but I will do my best.

Even in orthopedics "hormone blockers" are used fairly frequently. For example the same drugs that people use to transition are utilized to moderate the epiphyseal fusion of growth plates. Puberty is also frequently delayed to moderate the hormone levels of juvenile cancer patients. Or even more increasingly common, to halt the symptoms of precocious puberty in young women.

The vast majority of juveniles prescribed hormones to delay puberty are for non gender affirming care like cancer. The problem with moderating what medical providers can and can't treat is that you are assuming you know more about medicine than the a person who went to medical school.

You may be trying to protect kids, but what ends up happening is an interference of medical care, and usually not the type you intended. If hormone drugs become more monitored, providers may be hesitant, or have a more difficult brine prescribing it.

The dangers of delaying puberty are very small, when you stop the prescription puberty begins again. Usually the only side effect is excessive growth due to a delay if epiphyseal fusion. In regards to gender affirming care, I will remind people that their providers are looking at total outcomes. Meaning they are factoring in things like the higher potentiality of self harm and suicide.

The crazy thing seemed fairly relaxed until she said she "rebuked him unto Jesus". Seemed like it went from "haha I don't want to be around a person carrying boiling water", and she seemed to respond jokingly with the Jesus thing, which immediately made the cop respond as if she just pointed a gun at him?

Does this guy think this lady is some kind of biblical sorcerer?

Just as an FYI, most states have programs that will fund a disability lawyer to assist you with your disability claim. Most of the time the lawyers will be paid partly through your claim if it is successful and it's usually free if it is not.

Also do not get discouraged if your claim is initially denied, in my state it's basically an open secret that your first claim gets automatically denied to discourage people from actually getting benefits. With disability, it's all about persistence, documentation, and filing as soon as you can. Even if you get denied for years, when it is successful your claim will be back dated to the date of your initial filling.

Not a lawyer, but I work in a field where most all my patients are on disability, and I have had to help my parents file in an extremely conservative state.

My father-in-law is a defense attorney for juveniles, he always said that the best thing to say is " I understand you guys are just doing your jobs, and I really would like to cooperate, but to do so I need a lawyer present".

Otherwise they can basically classify you as a combative witness, or claim that you are interfering with an ongoing investigation.

By saying that you really want to help, it puts the imperative of wasting time on their end. If you guys need the information that bad, you should be rushing to get some representation here as fast as possible.

Think it's probably more appropriate to say recover instead of rescue by this point. Unfortunately the Atlantic is pretty cold this time of year.

One of the best things about my job is that our clinic's offices share a hallway with the hospital's charitable organization, and they have two golden lab "therapy dogs".

A lot of the clinicians keep dog treats in our offices and once or twice a day the doggos will politely paw at people's doors for treats and pets time. They are by far my favorite co-workers.

I think it's funny that no matter how bad the work shortages will get, it's never going to get to the point where conservatives actually acknowledge the root problem.

There are plenty of young men and women who would love to do hard work outside for decent pay, it's just that corporations like CHS depend on illegally cheap labor and inhumane conditions to make billions of dollars in revenue every year.

There's plenty of money in agriculture, just as there have always been. The scare of increasing food pricing is just a threat to preserve their profit model. Meanwhile we're still paying landowners 30 billion dollars a year not to work their land to maintain profitable prices on food.

What kind of robot thinks "hey are you waiting for someone" sounds like a normal thing to ask a person?

Be me Stood up by obvious catfish Sad that I fell for it again Even worse, the man who's been drinking alone while staring at me for the last half hour is coming over. He smirks and asks "hey are you waiting for someone"? I instinctually interpret it as "do you have any witnesses arriving soon?"

Yet again another tech nerd turned fascist. I am beginning to think that learning computer programming is inherently damaging to the human brain.

Lol, we aren't going to be mining anything. Rare earth minerals aren't rare because they're only located in isolated places, they're rare because they are only present in small amounts when mining other materials.

The hard part is the refining of rare earth minerals because it requires large investments in refineries to separate the materials and consolidate them. Infrastructure that Ukraine or America haven't invested in.

The minerals deal is just something that trump can point to as a "win" when in reality it's not worth anything. Just like everything this administration does, it's nothing but smoke and mirrors.

It's hard to do with slate tiled roofs. The slates have to overlap to keep water out and the tiles aren't flexible. So when you get to a corner you basically start the layering process over again.

They sell corner pieces for slate, but they're pricey. So you typically see them do metal flashing in the corners, or some fancy tiling like in the post.

I'm guessing they just did the corners in this post, the rest of the roof looks older. Probably just replacing some bad flashing with something more permanent.

Just ran into this like a week ago with a wood working video. "How to flatten a board without a planer!". The whole premise was that planers are expensive, so here a little trick for hobbyist........ The next scene was them using a router table jig that's like 5x more expensive then any planer.

The goal is clear, but the system was designed to withstand the blow.

The system was largely designed over two hundred years ago, and fascism was designed to take advantage of its inadequacies.

The Weimar Republic was modeled after the American government, and fell to the same gridlock and political schisms we are seeing happen today.

The system does not have a way to hamper fascism because fascism is a revolutionary force. The goal isn't to command the current government, but to destroy it and replace it with another.

As I see it, their only real goal is to make the government so dysfunctional that the people will demand a strong man to come and fix it all. And I think most people will say they've been doing a fine job at that.

This is going to be a hard pill to swallow for the Russian nationalist cosplaying as leftist on Lemmy......

My hope if they get caught is that the news media tries to get ahead of this in the most news media way possible and just makes them as infamous as the columbine kids.

Could you imagine teenage angst being directed towards open season on shitty CEOs instead of school shootings, would be pretty cool. Just saying.

I mean also.....

"In his final post on social media hours before the attack, Lischinsky had shared a post from the Israeli ambassador, Amir Weissbrod, accusing UN officials of engaging in “blood libel” over claims that 14,000 children faced starvation in Gaza."

Not saying they deserved any violence, but even once moderate Israelis have been driven pretty far right in the last couple years. Accusations of blood libel while the state is actively starving children doesn't exactly seem to be promoting any positive dialogue.

Yeah, Giáp is undeniably one of the greatest minds in modern military history. Not only did he defeat some of the most powerful militaries in the world, he did so in strategically different positions.

I can't think of another commander who excelled against an occupying force as an insurgent, was successful in counter insurgency, and defeated a better armed opponent in a head to head battle.

You're totally right, if America had a general as successful everything in the US military would be named after them, we'd never hear the end of it.
