I wonder how many Savita Halappanavar's (she died from complications post miscarriage in Ireland in 2012) there need to be in the world before people pull their heads out of their asses and let women have true bodily autonomy and give them the care that goes along with that?
Like, whether you take the Hippocratic Oath, the WHO's Oath, Lasagna's Oath (yes, it's a thing - one of the revisions of the Hippocratic Oath in the 20th century done by a man who's last name was Lasagna), or any of the other versions that are out there, the one unifying factor is that as a medical professional you swear to not harm your patients. This is harming patients. They are breaking their oaths and should have their licenses revoked for intentional malpractice.
Correct me if I'm wrong - I'm not American, so I wouldn't see this regularly - but I swear I heard about a lotto jackpot or two that hit the billions of dollars (maybe it was close, if wasn't that much). So it's possible (rare as all fuck, but possible on occasion) to get to that - or close to it - without building it on the backs of the working class. If that happened to DominusOfMegadeus then that would be awesome! All for it. It's unfortunately more likely that you're crushing people's spines as you climb the mountain of them to reach that amount though. Blargh...
Since you're already in the Fediverse, I'd suggest looking into PeerTube for your videos rather than going to YouTube as your primary platform.
I currently have a channel, but am going to switch to PeerTube when I have my backlog built up again so I can post in a steady schedule. (Workin' on it...) The only things I'm going to put on YouTube are videos going, 'Hey! I have the video up here! Follow the link!' so that people can actually find it and Words of the Week shorts 'cuz I don't want to feed their AI bullshit that I can't get away from with proper stuff and it's just stick figures and rudimentary drawings with words from the dictionary. Unfortunately, it's not as user friendly to search for stuff on PeerTube as it is on YouTube. I'm hoping that gets fixed sooner rather than later. It'll make things better. sigh
Yeah. Lately in 20min chunks I've been getting about 4 ad breaks, so if it's an hour+ in length...
And some of those 'ads' are 3min, 5min...one was almost 2hrs! Yes, there's the skip button, but if it's that long then it's not an ad and it has no place in an ad break.
