> But America has tried to make peace with Iran for 40 years. It's insane that you probably actually believe this. Go read up about the Iran-Iraq War. The US has had no interest in making peace with Iran.

1. "Reclaiming" what? The president of the US, without Congressional approval, decided to launch a war against Iran. He broke it and now, like a petulant child, he wants everyone else to help him fix it. There was no credible evid

1. Oil is a global market. Global supply and demand affects prices everywhere. 2. Oil isn't the only commodity that is at stake here. The closure of the Strait of Hormuz has disrupted the global helium supply, for instance, and helium

It's funny your link starts in 1979. Perhaps you should read about what the US did in Iran before that. Here's a teaser: in 1953, the US and UK instigated a coup that overthrew the Prime Minister of Iran. The goal: keep Iran from

People can change but based on Facebook's actions vis-a-vis privacy, mental health, etc. there's little evidence that Zuckerberg has gone from treating his users like "dumb f...." to treating them like human beings. If w

You're right, but per the post, this man's girlfriend was still struggling with elevated prolactin and it seems there is no clear "cure" for her at this point. She's been through multiple rounds of treatment and fac

Prolactinomas, especially tiny ones, are super common. They often find them during autopsies. Most people with them experience no symptoms.

I had a (micro)prolactinoma that was successfully treated with medication. Even though it was nowhere near as "bad" as this man's girlfriend's, getting it diagnosed took almost 2 years and the possibility of prolactinoma
