  • Do they? Well most people dislike dentists because it’s very uncomfortable to have someone messing about in your mouth, and many things dentists do (cleanings, some surgeries) hurt or leave you uncomfortable for a long time after, and most people think of it as mostly aesthetic. Compared to say, a surgeon that might be similar but is saving your life, or a family medicine doc that at most puts a piece of wood on your tongue.

    Also, dentists go to dentist school, not med school (in most countries at least). Dent is easier to get into, and is usually a shorter time to get your degree. Some people think this devalues dentistry, and say dentists aren’t as good as “regular” doctors because of that. It’s not valid, dentists are very good at what they do, so don’t stress it.


















  • I just see as a sign it’s never gonna work. Not under Elon, not X. He’s a megalomaniac idiot…

    And I don’t see how it’s “unethical” either. It’s annoying, rude, stupid, ridiculous, shitty, sure. But unethical? They didn’t promise anything, they even gave some compensation even though they didn’t need to, right? Ethics isn’t even objective so I just don’t think that’s remotely meaningful, what ethical boundary are they overstepping? “To forcibly change someone’s social media handle is unethical”?

    IDK, just don’t use Twitter!! I guess I just don’t see this as a big issue because I think Twitter is dumb, I suppose if you use the app a lot… IDK.
