alt Hacker NewsI'm mad about Ozempic. For years I toiled, eating healthy foods while other people stuffed their faces with pizza and cheese burgers. Everybody had the opportunity to be thin like me, but they didn't take that and earn it like me. So now instead of being happy about their new good fortune and salvaged health, I'm bitter and think society has somehow betrayed me and canceled promises.
/s, obviously I would hope except I've actually seen this sentiment expressed seriously.

is the result the only thing that matters? or does the journey have its place as well?
is there price to be paid for getting any desired result imaginable without effort on a press of a button?
I would rather see regulations fixing incentives that create this problem (why does healthy food cost so much more than processed food?) than a bandaid like Ozempic that 2/3 of people can't quit (hello another hidden subscription service) without regaining their weight back.
