Would you be able to give examples of healthier behaviors that vegans and vegetarians perform that the general population does not?

If one made their choice to abstain from meat for ethical reasons and not health reasons I’m not sure their lifestyle would be drastically different from their counterparts, then again I’m not sure what particular behavior patterns you are referring to which could throw off studies.

Indeed there are, but just under half of all of medical studies performed world wide are performed in the States, roughly half of the world’s pharmaceutical companies based in the States, and the US has consistently lead the world in medical innovations, with almost 50 percent more innovations than from the EU and Switzerland combined.

My point is not to sound US centric, but to say there is a lot of capital and willpower in the US pharmaceutical industry, and without that willpower it will be significantly harder to get rapamycin accepted as a viable longevity drug.

See that’s the interesting thing about rapamycin, it’s an old drug that has been used for immuno-suppression for years now, only just now scientists are discovering this interesting side effect. The patient on rapamycin has expired so you can get a generic prescription for cheap.

But ironically because the patent expired there’s no money in it for the drug companies to get it approved for longevity purposes, so who knows if it will ever become approved for this purpose.

As someone who went through the NY public school system many years ago, I can confirm hats were/are hard banned. Like unless it was for religious reasons you really couldn’t even think about putting something on your head.

Cell phones were also banned in my youth but I guess times have changed?

I’ve never actually played a Star Trek game before but this looks fun and I’d like to play it.

I feel like Seth MacFarlane would totally approve of this. The Orville was basically a love letter to 90’s trek so I think it’s really cool people have used it as a entry way into Trek.
