Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 15-10-2024 — Nature vs Nietzsche

15th October, 2024: Nature vs Nietzsche.


Right, I have to admit, I was up early, again, today.

I’m getting a mattress delivered, this morning.

And … ?

I’m getting the old one removed by the delivery company.

After a bad night’s sleep.   Stress induced, I think: I had a few deliveries, and my weight management meeting … 

And a phone call from the Department of Work and Pensions: to review my Universal Credit claim.

Mostly about my bank, and PayPal, statements for the last few months.

All that … and waiting for yesterday’s batch of deliveries?

Well, stress is the word, I think!

I follow the news: so?

When Radio Four’s Today programme announces news that interests me, I pay attention.

I’m obese, so you know: managing my weight by a mix of meal-monitoring, and taking at least one dual use medication.

I’m on Mounjaro: but have used Ozempic.

So notice the piece on the Today programme: that tells us the Health Secretary is planning to introduce weight loss drugs for the unemployed.

As he feels it will save the National Health Service money, long term: and improve the economy, by reducing the amount of sick days taken by people like me.

I’d welcome that: knowing the good these drugs can do.

But … ?

Wonder why it hasn’t been done earlier.
