    The new recommended age to start getting routine checks for colon cancer is 35. Go get your ass tickled once a year and it just might save your life. Colon cancer is one of the deadliest cancers but also one of the easier ones to detect and beat with a full recovery if you catch it early…

      Plus you can pay to get a finger in your ass and it’s legitimately for your health! You can ask for more but some doctors charge extra.

      Its not even that bad. Time the prep right and schedule the hose job for the afternoon and it is basically one and a half annoying days and a nice nap.

    Eat. fiber. Cut saturated fat intake from cheese. Stop eating so much carcinogenic animal product. Stupid reactionary memes about your cheese addiction and poor diet will not unfuck your body or make your diet any less stupid.

      Sorry to contradict you. This is an article about a rise in colon cancer and cardiovascular disease. Cheese consumption is not associated with either of those. Actually it seems to be protective for both issues:

        A valid criticism, and I can’t knock solid information. People should be mindful of the amount of calories they are getting from cheese, as being overweight definitely will exacerbate colon cancer & cardiovascular disease even if it would otherwise be neutral or benefitial. The hormonal effects can also be no bueno for prostate or breast cancer.

        Of course, I have motives beyons health to advocate away regardless, but I’ll be mindful of avoiding any non-factual talking points. Kudos.

    Rich boomers really going extra trying to eliminate the competition, especially with the shortage of 13 year olds and subsequent generations being more protective parents.

    It’ll be interesting to see if we can find more than a correlation. This ought to be a polymarket bet… But mine would be on either ultra processed foods or microplastics.

      More than likely the ultra processed foods. So much shit added that other countries ban because it’s carcinogenic but not in the USA because it’s cheap and makes the line go up. Think it was a documentary that included the Oreos CEO who refused to eat their own product.

    Rent is due in 13 days, so do you think this could be a rush job?
