Approximately 20-25% of cardiac output goes to the kidneys, which is approximately 5000 pints per pound per day, only exceeded by the thyroid gland (and perhaps the pineal gland).
Another trash defensive opinion piece in the NYTimes. I guess these women and the establishment media will never learn their lesson. If we don’t address the VERY REAL issues negatively affecting our boys, humanity is screwed. Sorry for my frustration, but I’m so tired of this.
Nature. Is. Healing.

Ironically, the emphasis on empathy has destroyed "manners." People have been taught to demand empathy, so no one is remotely respectful of boundaries, which are a prerequisite for REAL empathy.
Some of you all still think that powerful people are going to be held accountable for their actions.
The left uses "empathy" as a means to power and authoritarianism, and an excuse for control and violence. So...no.
The lack of empathy is rotting this nation from the inside out.

This is what happens when you increase Denver sales tax to near 10%. I buy nothing in Denver anymore ! Zero !!! All of my building materials and appliances are purchased in places that are 6% lower . Saving me tons of money every year . This idiot just doesn’t understand !!

This is what they took from us:
95 percent of Right Wing nostalgia is just a picture of a woman with unbelievable honkers captioned, “This is what they took from us 😔”
In a healthy adult, the kidneys filter approximately 180 liters (roughly 47 gallons) of blood per day in order to produce about 1-2 liters of urine
The fact that she was on a suggested/required reading list at many academic medical centers is a national disgrace.
This chick had grip over the entire left at one point. That's pretty much all we need to know. This is a captive and sheepish demographic that should forever be kept out of societal authority.
Good. DEI is poison.

And then NCQA takes these recommendations at face and makes them quality measures.
I am so grateful to @ReoLloydDoggett who shared our story yesterday in Committee. I’m hopeful that we can all move in the right direction for the health of Americans.
Separately, @RepAOC and I are pressing @TheJusticeDept to investigate wide-ranging claims of fraud, waste, and abuse by UnitedHealth. Anticompetitive and aggressive tactics are squeezing out doctors like Austin surgeon @EPotterMD, who is courageously fighting their denials of…
The United States Government has been enabling all of this via Medicare Advantage and regulatory capture mechanisms such as "Value Based Care", so this will not stop until you make some very painful changes, including potentially shutting down the Center for Medicare and Medicaid…
.@UnitedHealthGrp is seeking monopoly control over health care through systematically purchasing a wide range of health companies, providers, pharmacies, and more, now more than 2,700 entities according to @cforhd. @RepGregMurphy and I are calling for a GAO investigation into…
Take these men into the jungle, cover them with honey, and tie them to a tree.
Multiple children have been rescued from a secret underground bunker in Alabama, where they were held and abused for over a year. Authorities say the children, aged three to ten, were d*ugged, r*ped, and trafficked by a group of men who sold them to clients for s*xual…
The problem I've noticed in these circles is that what these women viscerally want (a masculine man who makes them feel like a woman) is very different from what they say they want (a man who is completely egalitarian, goes to therapy, etc.). So then these women wind up…
1/2 Thousands of words. I read this so you don’t have to. tl;dr is that in a certain social milieu men have become skittish and disinterested and women are frustrated because they don’t know how/ aren’t able to lure them back in.
The world is not a meritocracy.
Hit me with one harsh truth you've accepted so far as a man.
