  • Tankies aren’t leftists.

    See, that’s part of the loop here. Tankies are definitionally leftist, else they’d be called something other than tankie. It is the application of leftism, be it deemed, fake, real, red fash, bot, etc, is what’s uneven and arbitrary.

    So much so it is to the point that applying it based on the user’s instance is considered a norm.






  • It’s been over 20 years, but I do remember the acupuncture was beneficial. The physical therapy exercises helped with a shoulder injury, and it was accessible for a laborer without insurance.

    I should also mention they were also religious and gave you a pocket bible every visit. It was a very different time and location in my life.



  • Yeah I was using common nomenclature. I don’t recall if they were licensed dietitians or not.

    The one sold supplements and vitamin tinctures his wife made, so they weren’t far off from the unlicensed category. But they were both also licensed/certified physical therapists and masseuses. He had done some kind of sports medicine if I recall correctly before starting his business.

    The other guy was really into the whole gambit of chinese herbology and such, but he kept himself grounded with physical therapy regimens and promoting tai chi every other sentence.



  • I used to work nights until around 2015. Used to game with a lot of eastern europeans. (And American friends in the military deployed across the globe.)

    Two guys I knew, one in Svestopol and the other Kiev both signed off in 2014. I am 90% sure the Kiev guy moved to the UK since they were going there for a degree, but the guy in Svestopol just went radio silent.


  • I have known a few chiropractors. Two were decent naturopaths who were also nutritionists, physical therapists, and masseuses. Whole body and nervous system health. Never cracked or popped a joint.

    The third charges $35 bucks, no insurance needed, and just pops your middle back and gropes you. Absolute worst and he bought the business from one of the first.

    Good chiros are about nervous systems. Bad chiros, the vast majority, are witch doctors selling bunk cures.
