I would argue that 18 is not a complete adult just one defined legally as an adult by our legal system. I would argue that the definition of complete adult is relatively arbitrary …

Needing to take immunosuppressants for the rest of your life is exceptionally dangerous and you best have a proper justification for it.

I think this is incorrect because it assumes the job offers are equal. My understanding is that it is much more like two chronically unemployed people: the first doesn't get an int…

Do you actually talk to women about dating apps? I have, and they basically have to walk around variously unhinged, landmine men who are still in the dating pool (the good ones are…

My point is not that no wealthy people save things. My point is that a lack of minimalism is often an indicator of the class where one grew up.

I noticed you didn't bring up them also taking napkins, sauce packets, sugar and creamer, cutlery etc. You either already were eating at wealthy enough places (metal cutlery + real…

> I live in a fairly poor area and people seem very willing to throw litter out of their cars, blast bass so loud it shakes my house, do drugs in public view, or commit flagrant tr…

I disagree with the broad idea that immigrants have less resources compared to the US born population as a category. Immigrants are often more educated than the native US born popu…

One of the biggest indicators to me, as someone who has navigated such lines before, is how comfortable co-workers are with waste. A co-worker who takes catered food home (without …

TBH That's literal nitpicks. Nowhere in the paper is a causal relationship proposed. Your statement that a potential subconscious proposition exists in the paper is windmill-tiltin…

I don't think the paper implies any causality either way. Notice that the title of the paper itself is "The neurobiology of life course socioeconomic conditions and *associated* co…

I mean... dictionary.com?? https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/forgive 1 : to cease to feel resentment against (an offender) : pardon forgive one's enemies

Forgiveness isn't like acting like what a person did never happened. It's describing the cessation of the feeling of resentment and anger at being wronged. Depending on how small o…

So... you get my confusion and skepticism at this claim that it is "rare" for doctors to bring up obesity to an obese patient!

> It's also rare for a doctor to tell a person they are too fat and to lose weight. Genuinely curious... have you ever been an obese person? Every fat person I've known have told m…

The greatest demographic to report long covid symptoms are actually hispanic and black people trans people earning less than 25000 a year. [0] 0. https://www.census.gov/library/sto…

Schizophrenia can be more or less severe. A schizophrenic with very mild symptoms, a stable life, access to food and shelter, no unhandled trauma, etc. can function and even thrive…

The time to "try out" a union was the height of the pandemic when the demand for developer labor was at its highest.

No, I think it is terrible. Is Grindr paying for the relocation? The cost of traveling to scope out apartments? Assuming people purchased property in LCOL places, October is barely…

Tumblr had their own sense of influence and a very different kind of person that would launch careers. IMO Tumblr was way more into thought pieces, deep fandom rants were encourage…

Yeah, I'm sure. I would rather not spend hours learning a skill to do something that should theoretically actually be saving me time. Can you give me a guide on how to have ChatGPT…

Interestingly ChatGPT is really bad at roleplaying when I try to use it. I tried for example to have ChatGPT partially recreate this awesome/bad character arc in a campaign where o…

i don't know if its fair to conflate an economic system with a political one

On one hand I'm all for free speech and I believe it's important to be able to civilly disagree with things. On the other hand, how do we avoid nazi-at-the-bar problems?
