in my exp doctors and vets always make comments like this but bc they're so professional they never hear how it sounds. guy was just happy his method worked 😂
They smashed babies against trees and murdered nearly 2 million Cambodians in under 4 years chasing a pure agrarian communist utopia with no cities, no money, and no private property.
On April 17 1975, the Khmer Rouge rolled into Phnom Penh and within hours emptied the entire city, marching hospital patients and the elderly into the countryside on foot as they declared Year Zero and set out to erase every trace of the old society.
Anyone tied to the past became a target and wearing glasses alone could get you killed because it proved you could read, while doctors, teachers, engineers, and monks were executed as enemies of the revolution.
They turned a high school into a prison where roughly 20,000 people were tortured into confessing crimes that never happened, after which they were trucked to mass graves in the killing fields where executioners smashed infants against the killing tree to save bullets.
But they never achieved a classless utopia so it wasn’t like real communism.

They told us immigrants were doctors and engineers - they weren’t.
They told us immigrants were refugees and evacuees - they weren’t.
They told us immigrants were women and children - they’re not.
It’s been lie after lie upon lie.

A 12-year-old boy whose emotional plea for help finding a treatment for his rare bone cancer touched millions has sadly passed away.
In a heartbreaking Facebook tribute, Will's mother shared that he "entered the presence of Jesus" just after midnight on her birthday:
"At 12:45am(central time)today, on my birthday, our precious Will took his final breath on this earth and entered the presence of Jesus."
"What a beautiful gift that God gave me today on my birthday….a celebration that there is no more cancer and Will entered into the kingdom of Heaven!!!! What better gift could I have received than to know my baby boy is sitting with Jesus and is cancer free…."
Will pleaded for his video to reach President Donald Trump and HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to help to find a treatment for his rare form of osteosarcoma, not only for himself, but for other children battling the devastating disease.
"Even if this won't work out for me, if this drug can get out in the future, it'll help hundreds of other kids. I really want it to get out in time for it to help me too. So y'all, please do whatever you can to get it out."
Will's plea eventually caught the attention of Dr. Mehmet Oz, administrator for the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, who helped connect Will's medical team with the doctors developing the experimental treatment.

What if doctors could spot your next sports injury before it happens?
Orthopedic Surgeon Dr. Andrew D. Pearle says digital twins, virtual models created from a patient's body, are starting to change orthopedic care. By simulating real-life movements, surgeons can compare treatment options and study how stress affects a patient's joints.
Researchers believe the technology could eventually identify athletes who are more likely to suffer an ACL tear, giving doctors a chance to intervene before an injury even happens.

Rome conquered Greece in 146 BC when they burned Corinth to the ground. And then the strangest thing in ancient history happened. The winners spent the next few centuries desperately trying to become the losers.
It actually started before the final conquest. When the general Marcellus sacked Syracuse in 211 BC, he shipped boatloads of Greek statues and paintings back to Rome, and the city went crazy for it. Suddenly every rich Roman had to have Greek art in his house. Decades later Cicero built an entire court case around prosecuting a governor named Verres for looting Greek masterpieces, and Romans ate it up.
Then came the schools. Wealthy families started buying Greek slaves specifically because they were educated, and handed them the job of raising their children. So the sons of the men who crushed Greece grew up speaking Greek, memorizing Greek poetry, and learning philosophy from Greeks. The elite eventually sent their teenagers abroad to Athens and Rhodes to finish their education, the way people today send kids to study overseas. Cicero did it. Julius Caesar did it.
Their gods were Greek gods wearing name tags. Zeus became Jupiter. Hera became Juno. Aphrodite became Venus. Ares became Mars. Same myths, same family drama, mostly just relabeled.
Their entertainment was borrowed too. The first big Roman playwrights, Plautus and Terence, basically adapted Greek comedies into Latin. Their doctors were Greek. Their architecture leaned on Greek columns, the Doric and Ionic and Corinthian orders you still see on bank buildings today.
And the art obsession left a strange fingerprint on history. Romans loved Greek bronze statues so much that they mass produced marble copies of them. A huge chunk of what people walk past in museums today and call "Greek sculpture" is actually a Roman copy. The Greek originals melted down or vanished long ago. The knockoffs are what survived.
Not everyone was thrilled. Cato the Elder spent his whole life warning that Greek culture would rot the Roman character. He sneered at Greek philosophers, distrusted Greek doctors, and wanted them kept out of the city. And then, as an old man, he quietly sat down and learned Greek anyway. Even the loudest hater caved.
The trend went all the way to the top. Virgil wrote the Aeneid, Rome's national epic, by openly modeling it on Homer. The emperor Nero competed in Greek games and toured Greece like a superfan. Hadrian was so obsessed he grew a Greek philosopher's beard and poured money into rebuilding Athens. And Marcus Aurelius, master of the entire Roman world, wrote his private journal not in Latin but in Greek, because that was the language of serious thinking.
The poet Horace nailed it in a single line: captured Greece took her savage conqueror captive. Rome won every war on the battlefield and then handed its whole soul to the people it had beaten.
