@shafik@hachyderm.io FFS if folks want to lose weight, give them drugs that literally just waste-burn calories. Not stuff that fucks up their nervous system's desires and capability to enjoy things. Fucking puritan bullshit.

@dalias@hachyderm.io @shafik@hachyderm.io We tried those, they all have side effects worse than GLP-1s. For example DNP is one of the most hilariously toxic things ever prescribed as a medicine.

@dalias@hachyderm.io @shafik@hachyderm.io I suspect drugs that just waste-burn calories are really difficult to come up with. Because there would be a huge market for these. No need to see malice here. GLP-1s are the closest thing we came up with, and only now are we seeing the result of their use. Of course there were going to be side effects.
