    … Why though? Was it the big suntan bed conglomerate that got to him and paid him to make that legal?

    I’m kidding of course but … Why do this? I don’t get it. We all know sun tan beds are bad, why allow kids?

        It’s not so much that they like them tanned, they don’t like tan lines. It suggests they’ve been out in the sun, and not enslaved in a dark room, waiting for them.

      Because UV rays make vitamin D, and that’s probably as far as he thought about it. Anything else is big scary science man talk with risks about something as “healthy” as unlimited concentrated artificial sunlight.

      Next up: let’s outlaw soap so that we can all have really good, well practiced immune systems.

      Actually maybe I shouldn’t give them ideas. They might try that.

    In the same way that most tattoo artists won’t do kids, even in states where it’s legal with parental consent, most salons won’t let kids tan--at least I hope.

    So… kids shouldn’t have the right to their own personal expression, but they should have the right to give themselves cancer. Got it. Makes perfect sense.

      Doctor Zoidberg

      I dunno, dude. Zoidberg has an understanding of human anatomy that’s tenuous at best, and a lot of his medical advice is completely disastrous. Honestly, if he were in a government health official position, I’m not sure he’d really do any better. Possibly much worse.

        I remember his advice was so “out there” that no sane person would take him seriously.

        Other than that, I’ll agree.

            Believe me, I’m doing everything I can think of to end this nightmare.

            Here’s the front of my house that is right on the highway.

            An upside down American flag with an Israeli flag replacing the blue star field.

            The dog is a Belgian Malinois. They are used as Police dogs here. I’m retired so she’s with me all day. As you know, dogs pick up traits from their owners so she only bites politicians. She tells me they taste like chicken.

    Kennedy’s action comes at a time when many adherents of his Make America Healthy Again movement have adopted regular sun exposure as a core principle of wellness, with social media influencers encouraging followers to abandon sunscreen and build up their “solar callus,” or sun tolerance, instead.

    Even if this doesn’t give you cancer, it’ll make you look like a California Raisin. In one of Lab Muffin’s videos (chemistry PhD who makes educational videos about beauty/skincare product misinformation), she has a great photo of an older woman who has put sunscreen on her face but not neck for decades, and it looked like they belonged to two different people. Same if you’ve ever seen photos of old truckers that don’t use sunscreen on their window side arm.

    TL;DR: UV radiation bad. Protect yourself from the giant nuclear explosion in the sky. If you don’t like sunscreen, use a sun jacket or anything long sleeved with a good UPF rating.
