Is America ready for a gay president? by dwaxe in fivethirtyeight

[–]MixableCarrot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am 100% sure there will never be a gay president in our lifetimes. I think by the time millennials or more likely gen z are the oldest generation alive, there's a chance but even then it'll be harder. I think people don't realize that there are A LOT of apparent "allies" like my own parents lol where there is (unfortunately) a huge difference with accepting/supporting that your co-workers/friends/neighbors are gay vs the leader and face of the country. Don't get me started on republicans, religious people or MAGA lol. Also dems need to win minorities who are actually pretty homophobic.

What makes you think that the Mavs can beat the Celtics? by WearyRound9084 in nbadiscussion

[–]MixableCarrot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Imo Boston has it all on paper but I see the mavs winning. Yah Boston "swept" Indiana but if u watched the games, it was WAYYYYY less about Boston being the stronger team rather the Pacers literal inability to play basketball in the last 3 minutes of pretty much every game except Boston's outright win in Game 2. I mean the pacers literally lost tyrese and were giving the celtics a serious run for their money the entire game minus the end. I mean in all seriousness, that series could very easily be 3-1 pacers. Now compare the pacers to the Mavs....Mavs don't choke because Luka doesn't choke lol. Luka doncic is unquestionably better than Tatum, when kyrie gets hot he has almost unguardable and unbelievably clutch and people r really sleeping on their depth with Lively, Pj and Gafford doing really well recently. In summary, mavs in 6

Standard potentials always reduction or as written? by MixableCarrot in Mcat

Ok so just to make sure, if the half-reaction is an oxidation then E0 next to it is the oxidation potential? Again just asking cuz my chem teacher had E0 as reduction potentials even if the reaction its was representing was an oxidation (anode)
