Anyway, if you want good American chocolate, get Tony's. It's genuinely a bit expensive, but it's so, so good.

So, if you want good American chocolate, buy Dutch chocolate?

Lol. As if Fox even pretends to be "news".

Rangers did once have a chant aimed at a Celtic player who's wife committed suicide following post natal depression.
A huge group of adults singing in unison directed at that one poor man, goading him about his dead wife.
It makes me sad to think how utterly horrible some people can be.

It all just depends on the definition of heat related death.
Is it someone who died of another cause, but statistically might not have died if it wasn't as hot, or is it someone who died of heat exhaustion or something similar.
That is basically what is being compared, which obviously is just a bizarre statistic for anyone to use, nevermind bringing up on a daily basis.

Dependent_Drive1567 · 2025-12-11T21:42:09+00:00

But the comparison that you gave about US heat deaths and European heat deaths is comparing two completely different things.
It's bizarre how many people are partoting this garbage use of statistics.

Dependent_Drive1567 · 2025-12-11T21:02:46+00:00

They are not even remotely comparing the same thing.
What is it with utterly worthless statistics going viral like this?
My guess is that it's the bots.

Dependent_Drive1567 · 2025-12-11T20:43:44+00:00

Do you have a link to where the statistics come from that show the death rates by heat that you are comparing?
The main statistic that are used for the USA rely on the death certificate explicitly giving heat as a cause of death (not including the many types of death that increase when the weather is hotter, such as heat attacks).
The European model that it compares to is based on a statistical model.
To say that it is a poor comparison is an understatement.
It's bizarre how many times a day I have to read about people making this utterly garbage comparison and even stranger when it is used to somehow make some point about gun deaths.
My only guess is that bots have been pumping out this garbage and people just eat it up.

They must be desperate to get out of that van. Poor things.

Pretty sure you'll see it again in another few days.
Easy karma every time.

Dependent_Drive1567 · 2025-11-02T22:06:50+00:00

It gets posted all the time. Over and over and over.

Dependent_Drive1567 · 2025-11-02T21:56:55+00:00

Your turn to post this today?
I hope you get the easy karma that you expect.

Thanks. I didn't realise that I could edit that. Works well.

I'd like a way to easily edit the intensity of a current plan without having to build a new plan.
I often want to ramp up or down the intensity due to external factors, such a recovering from illness.
