I have a feeling about how this will end
they put me in a rubber room with rats
Whoa, they gave you therapy animals? Lookit this guy
Unironically, anything you tell a doctor can be used against you in court. I have been on two civil juries and in both cases the defense attorneys basically just read a bunch of tangentially related embarrassing medical records for seemingly no reason besides embarrassing the person their client injured.
What about doctor-patient privilege, does that not exist anymore?
Admittedly, it wouldn’t apply in this case since the person posted it to Twitter, but I mean in general.
Yes not many people realize that medical records can be subpoenad.
From Wikpedia:
Physician–patient privilege is a legal concept […] that protects communications between a patient and their doctor from being used against the patient in court.
What am I missing here? Clearly both cannot be true at the same time.
EDIT: nevermind, I found the answer further down on the page:
In the United States, the Federal Rules of Evidence do not recognize doctor–patient privilege.
At the state level, the extent of the privilege varies depending on the law of the applicable jurisdiction. For example, in Texas there is only a limited physician–patient privilege in criminal proceedings, and the privilege is limited in civil cases as well.
US fed doesn’t recognize basic ethics laws, how unsurprising
A boring dystopia
But the types of cases are different. Civil cases are state cases and handle harm, murder, etc. Federal cases are often not about these types of things at all and are about businesses that operate in multiple states (because they may operate differently according to the state constitutions)

It says that they preside over Constitutional cases
I did something similar to this at work. I took a screen shot of a coworker while he was speaking and then made it my background. I sized it so that if I stayed centered, I was blocking him, and it looked like I was in his living room.
At the next team meeting, it was great to see the wave of smiles as people noticed it. Especially his😁.
A little bit of editing and you could delete him from the image. Then you could send it to everyone in the office and troll your coworker. :)
🤣🤣🤣
Stable diffusion inpaint him out and it’s even easier

What REALLY weirded me out is that…Skype was doing video calls for years before the pandemic, Skype got picked up by Microsoft, the biggest software house in the world with the power to make Skype non-removable on 90% of the work computers in the word…And they lost to some no name company that sprang up out of nowhere.
It doesn’t surprise me that Google failed, because they’d probably started, advertised, ran, monetized, abandoned and shut down three different and incompatible video conferencing suites so “Let’s just use Google Spew” “Wait I thought it was called Youtube Both Ways” “You mean Teams?” “No that’s a Microsoft thing isn’t it?”
Slack was like “…nah we’re still just IRC for work.”
Skype had become a really horrible program under Microsoft. Aweful buggy app, bad video quality, … Here’s someone else’s testimony, which matches my own experience: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/skype/forum/all/skype-is-horrible/83ceff2b-3217-4ddd-bfa5-fcec0b390997
Microsoft Teams for business is pretty good as long as the call stays within the company. Go outside of that and you run into loads of problems thanks to Microsoft’s hubris. The problem really is Microsoft.
Zoom and Google meet just work in my experience.
If we haven’t (I might have missed it), a few years from now we’ll get an insider’s story on how Microsoft killed Skype.
There must have been some really fucked up political shenanigans with the “Skype for Business” into “MS Teams” folks that must be at the root of much of Regular Skype™'s enshitification.
Now we just wait for third time to become the charm: MSFT will buy Discord, rebrand it “Teams for XBOX”, then promptly enshittify it because it’s eating into their own B2B marketshare.
It doesn’t surprise me that Google failed
Did it? Isn’t Google meet one of the rare things they were successful with?
Who is not required to follow HIPAA? HIPAA’s primary focus is on covered entities and their business associates, which include healthcare providers, health plans, and healthcare clearinghouses. Entities and individuals who don’t handle PHI on behalf of covered entities typically aren’t subject to HIPAA regulations.
Easy to obay something if you’re not subject to it. Most of those tech companies aren’t subject to HIPAA regulation.
Is this a Chinese military parade because that’s a lot of red flags.
I’m just here jealous of people that can get therapy and still eat =/
It’s built into the system on purpose. Keep your resources limited to what you can scrounge yourself so you have to choose between if you feed your body or your mind.
If you feed your body you live long enough to be used by the system you’re not cognizant enough to subvert.
If you feed your mind you’ll be able to subver the system but won’t have the resources to make any changes.
And if you’re lucky enough to be blessed with the conditions that allow you to feed both, chances are you look back at those who can’t and choose to not let that ever happen to you, and you become the system, willing to hoard for yourself and deny others the ability to feed both their body and mind.
When therapy turns into psychological warfare.
I literally cannot imagine having a meeting with my camera on.
Why?
