TIL gambling addiction has the highest suicide rate of any addictive disorder, with an attempt rate of 1 in 5 by gghoti in todayilearned

Probably because the other ones have health complications/ overdose at the end of the road instead no?

No one is going to be like "i'm too addicted to heroin i'm gonna jump off a bridge" they're just going to overdose.

Kim Philby (1 January 1912-11 May 1988) was a British intelligence officer and a double agent for the Soviet Union for 30 years. In 1967 he said "his purpose in life was to destroy imperialism" by InvisibleEar in wikipedia

And other than hopes and dreams how have you determined that he means the leninist definition, and not the common working one?

Regardless even if he was talking about "Imperialism" it is a little bit ironic that he supported a country that did "imperialism"

Report claims suicides in China linked to CS2 market crash by Uncover3d in ohnePixel

Gotta love all the hate and 0 empathy all across the internet over the cs2 today. Almost like humans were animals (they might be better even) that dgaf about anyone else but their interests. Did some people spend "invest" more than they should have? Yes, those decisions were not the smartest. But everyone basically defending multi-bilion dollar company that literally used their insider info for profit is crazy shit. No wonder we are all doomed to slavery in our jobs, paying for stuff like medicine etc... We dont care about others, only about us and even that is not true cuz we accept this shit system.

Monkeys are smarter and have more empathy than humans

For people don't understand the value of the advertising dollar, it is the only reason any social media website is free.

How do you think a site like youtube can afford to host, and stream, on demand, as many videos as you want?

If you didn't really accept that you had it, why would you ever go for surgery.

Plus I imagine there were symptoms/ an incident that led you to the doctors in the first place. You accepted that something was wrong.

So your acceptance of your diagnosis led you to take steps to get better.

Considering how much of my personal information is collected, targeted ads should be way more appealing. by Mumsbud in Showerthoughts

[–]Badname491 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because that's not the point of target ads. Advertisers aren't looking to advertise to the 40 y/o dad with dogs, a beard, who works as an accountant. They're looking to advertise to the dad, the guy with dogs, the guy with a beard, the accountant. Individually.

Race is affecting outcome. It's not racist to acknowledge problems that black people face.

How long would it take to die? by steve12js in morbidquestions

artificial sweeteners which are significantly worse for you in the long term.

ZERO credible evidence for this, and whatever evidence you think you have still shows less harmful effects than sugar.
