None of that is in the summary.

Have you seen Karen freak out videos?

People become devastated over the most ridiculous shit.

Hahahhahahah!

Nice (;

There is a lot of money to be made.

If you could somehow accurately and convincingly predict someone's odds of getting cancer due to circumstances under their control, and likewise convincing demonstrate what they're in for if they don't change their ways, you could make serious money from that.

Spoken as someone diagnosed with stage 4 cancer at 51 years old.

Additionally, if a company with that kind of technology and business model were permitted (under law, I guess) to claim an annual bounty from health insurance companies and/or the govt) for the healthcare savings that would create, there would be real incentives to creating such technologies and business models.

Let me tell you what, pal.

No, you know what? I'm not even going to bother.

Fuck off.

The 5 year rate is about people who make it that long, yes, but expressed as a percentage of people who make it.

The 5 year survival rate for my cancer is 9%. The median survival rate is 3 years. So, if you make it 3 years, you're in the top half. Great! But let me tell you what. That is a tough, absolutely fucking miserable 3 years. You also all but certainly only got 2 years or less left.

I just passed the 3 year mark in April. I've got no reason to believe the daily misery for me and my family will do anything but get worse.

Is it worth making it to the 5 year mark? I don't see how, unless you're one of the miracles that gets cure. I'm not one of those miracles. My body my last the 5 years, but I've got a strong feeling my mind will put a stop to it before then.

But what of quality of life for cancer patients? Has that improved?

I am someone who was diagnosed with a stage 4 cancer and given a 91% of being dead within 5 years. I am now just over 3 years into it.

I wish the doctors would have just told me, straight up, that my life would completely suck until the day I die, back on day 1. I would have asked for life-ending treatment the same day, had they just been more honest with me.

I've lost track of how many rounds of chemo therapy I've had in the last 3 years.
But I've had two rounds of radiation treatments.
I've had six surgeries.
I've had more prescriptions than I can count.
I've lost my job.
I've become almost completely bedridden.
I'm a burden to my wife.
I'm a pisspoor excuse of a father for my 9 year old.
My once happy marriage went right into the toilet.
Total insurance billing is probably over $1m/year.

And for what? Daily fucking misery without end. Me, and more importantly my family, have been put through complete misery for 3 years, with no further hope of that coming to an end until I die - and I'm going to have to do that myself at some point relatively soon.

Good job fellas.
Good job.

Oh, I dunno.

I think having a better chance, or ANY CHANCE, of getting a decent job is a pretty good "real world use".

She didn't happen to want a crowbar upside her head did she?

Cause I don't think anyone would have a problem funding that.

I'm still available, if they need a balding, dying cancer patient for some hot photo sessions.

Given my situation, I am afraid I'm going to need to have cash payment up front, and all expenses paid.

I have to say, I never would have imagined, ever, that anyone would pay for the things described in the summary.

Learn something new every day.

There truly is something for everyone in this world.

Sorry to hear those dictionary lovers all got fucked over....also can't say I'm surprised.

Maybe I missed it, but I didn't see anything in the summary as to WHY this happened.

Can I come visit you? I promise I won't snore.

Maybe Ukraine hackers can frame bunches of Russian military commanders. Put gay S&M Putin AI porn on all their desktops.

Yip, the Project 2025 people are looking at Putin's ban list and salivating. Their local libraries already cover some.
