Taking Ivermectin for parasites is an excellent treatment.

Taking it for cancer is, in fact, crankpot.

You can't even say 'well, it's safer than Tylenol, so it doesn't hurt you.' In this case, it *does* hurt you, because the longer cancer goes untreated, the more likely it is to kill you.

When there's proven treatments, and you decide to try de-worming treatment with zero medical basis, you are, in fact, doing harm.

Comment Re:Holy Nostalgia Batman! (Score 1) 47

It's always fun when well-known actors are willing to make fun of themselves. (also in this camp - Jon Voight's and Raquel Welsh's appearances on Seinfeld).

On the other hand, it's sad when a perfectly 'fine' actor gets so badly typecast that all they can do for the rest of their career is make fun of themselves.

The Batman: The Animated Series episode 'Grey Ghost' was the only one that actually treated West and his Batman history with respect and dignity.

Comment Re:Future of Xbox (Score 1) 42

It absolutely is.

PlayStation->PlayStation 2-> PlayStation 3-> PlayStation 4->PlayStation 4 Pro -> PlayStation 5-> PlayStation 5 Pro makes sense.

Xbox->Xbox 360->Xbox One S OR Xbox One X->Xbox Series S OR Xbox Series X on the other hand, makes no sense and isn't intuitive to figure out which one you want.

Fun fact, Weller trained with world-class mimes to do a very fluid, fast, bird-like robotic physical language for RoboCop.

Then he put on the suit for the first time, and couldn't move.

So they carved huge chunks of the suit out, and he could barely move.

So he had to work to come up with a new physical language that was more heavy, slow, deliberate, and tank-like.

Yes. *I* needed typing training to type efficiently and quickly. The fact that said training started with the Almena method rather than the classic "JJJ space FFF space JJJ space FFF space JFJ space FJF space JJF space FFJ space" method doesn't remove the requirement for training (and more importantly, practice and ongoing use.) https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.almenatyping.com%2F
