while Lemmy scratches my post reddit itch, this is one of the down sides. Everyone goes to Reddit, despite it being an AI Bot filled shit show, so you never get the same visibility. At least around here you get a better quality of poster, and you don’t need to select your words quite as much.

TBF foot/leg pain to a 20 something, is not the same as chronic pain due to an injury, so i’m not discounting you, just voicing my experience.

also, i was smoking 'mersh not the medical grade stuff, so…

Reminds me of that short film where a drone mis identifies a guy going to work as a criminal and he ends up going to prison for 10 years but he ends up inadvertently getting blamed for a crime inside, so it gets bumped 25 to life instead. It does eventually get straightened out, but not before he gets shivved.

the first time i took Hydrocodone was after I had my wisdom teeth pulled. I slept a full 8 hours, got up, took my next dose, and then proceeded to pass out for ANOTHER full 8 hours. I put two and two together pretty quickly and just decided to deal with the pain.

that’s kind of how it works though. The first time i took weed I was doing 12 hour shifts in kitchen work, and i noted how it didn’t remove the pain, it just made me stop careing about it.

But like, the buzz cures pain too. Or is no one else dealing with depression?

If you have the plans for a house and you are in the middle of building it, and find out that the engineer wants a bigger porch, does that mean you put a porch on every wall? No, YOU JUST BUILD A BIGGER PORCH. Genes indicate how strongly they express by repeating a bunch of times. (though sometimes this acts as a limiter, hence why you need to find out if copies increasee or decrease expression) The number of the structures is a different gene, (though that works similarly) so If you wanted more dicks, you could do that, but it would be a completely different thing to ask of DNA vs size.

TL;DR: “Size” and “Number” are on different genetic sliders.

Quit being a negative Nancy. Also, you need to understand that your body basically rebuilds itself every 7-8 years, so the changes wouldn’t be instant by any means, just like HRT takes a few years to really kick in.

step one: Isolate the gene for penis length.

Step two: discern if the gene needs to be copied or trimmed to cause enlargement

step three: using CRISPR gene editing, formulate the necessary edits and then bioengineer a retrovirus delivery method.

step four: make sure that the panel for FDA approval is all men and/or trans men (hey, if we’re gonna do this there are legit G.A.C. uses!)

step five: Build a Money Bin like freakin’ Scrooge McDuck to handle all the money that you’re about to get.

Step six: Patent the hell out that shit.

Step seven: Profit, my bitches!!
