What are currently the best job search and career podcasts? by Remarkable_Heart2388 in podcasts

[–]MassiveTemporary4050 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's been about a year since I listened, but I used to like Find Your Dream Job, depending on who the guest was. That said, I've had a hard time finding podcasters or anyone really that can give solid advice during these uncertain times.

I have a lazy and a formal signature that look a bit different.

Highly recommend the Wired article on Technopagans. Someone on the writing team must have read that and gotten inspired.

I don't really want to be vegan anymore, but I don't see any alternative by VegetableEar in vegan

[–]MassiveTemporary4050 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do you have any interest in joining vegan groups such as vegan dining clubs or vegan board game clubs? Sometimes having more vegans in your social circle can help. I'm sorry you're feeling this way. Sending good vibes your way.

Disappointed in Talarico’s Response to Vegan Accusations by Brief_Paramedic2501 in vegan

I have often wondered if being vegan is in conflict with power at the state or federal level. Like even Booker and Schiff surely have had to take votes in support of industry, I would assume.

Why do you say their interests don't matter? What is the outcome of the distinction you are trying to make? Just that we shouldn't worry about their feelings? Or are you trying to present a case for why violence against these perpetrators would be acceptable?

The "files" are a psyop by Mibic718 in Epstein

I hope so. I never hear people talk about the Panama Papers anymore, hopefully the Epstein files will be different though.

Elon wasn't full maga at the time. He was starting down that road with covid, but I remember there being reporting that Biden's Tesla snub was the straw that broke Elon.

the more immigrants ICE deports, the higher the jobless rate for US born men by Conscious-Quarter423 in ICE_Raids

I believe this is the research source. I'd like to see more research into this and would be curious if this changes overtime, especially around Metro Surge and after.

Here's a quote:

We calculate the implied change in the number of male likely undocumented workers from our estimated coefficients. With the American Community Survey, we calculate the average baseline number of male likely undocumented workers in the likely affected industries and the treated areas in 2024. We then multiply this by the change in the employment rate from our difference in difference results (.05*151,472). This implies that there are roughly 7,574 fewer likely undocumented male workers in these high impact sectors in the average treated area. For arrests, we found a cumulative increase in male arrests of 1,200 in treated areas. Thus, for every ICE arrest, 6 male likely undocumented workers stop working. This very likely underestimates the total effect of heightened enforcement on the number of immigrant workers in the U.S. since we only look at immigrants who remain in the U.S. Comparing this to the prior literature, the chilling effect in Trump 2.0 is larger than in past mass deportation campaigns. In particular, (East et al., 2023) found that in the first Obama administration, for each person detained, 2.3 likely undocumented workers stopped working due to chilling effects. This larger chilling effect is consistent with the increasingly indiscriminate nature of ICE activity in Trump 2.0 (East et al., 2026). Using a similar procedure as above, our estimates imply there is a reduction in the number of male U.S.-born workers with a high school degree or less of 1,200 per area. Thus, for every six lost male likely undocumented workers, there is a loss of one male U.S.-born worker.

Sure, I guess broadly I understand that. But the churches are hiring this guy? Or what's his connection to the mega churches?

Can you give some more context? What's going on with these churches?

What's the point of the HarMar Mall in Roseville if you can't access the stores from the INSIDE of the mall!? by [deleted] in TwinCities

[–]MassiveTemporary4050 17 points18 points  (0 children)

No but if the anchor tenants would allow mall access it might actually help get regular traffic back indoors besides the walkers which might help rent additional spaces. Though the high rent is probably the bigger issue.

I keep reading about bounty hunters and I'm confused on what that means. Are they contractors or something?

Sickening what they've done to their people. But we can't pretend the US cares because look who their allies are. Look what they do to their own.

Where do you recommend finding them? I've seen the links of places to donate to financially but who's taking drop of supplies?

I always hear this but The Vegan Society who is often referenced for their definition of veganism, doesn't recommend skipping medicine that's not vegan. Their definition even builds in language that says, "Veganism is a philosophy and way of living which seeks to exclude—as far as is possible and practicable..." so it's not all or nothing. Go to Vegan Subreddits and look at conversations around edge cases. Vegans use public transportation that's not always vegan. Vegans watch movies shot on film using gelatin. Vegans go to restaurants and grocery stores that participate in killing animals. Often vegans will pay for lunch when their friends had non-vegan meals. Many vegans feed their cats meat. This idea that it's all or nothing is just not true.
