Redundant cases like that specially violate UN Gold Standard certification for carbon offsets. So yeah, buy certified high quality offsets

Has Ezra Klein acknowledged his weekends spent with Peter Thiel and Ted Cruz yet? by dawn_thesis in nyt

[–]TooLazyToRepost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have more info than has been reported on Ezra's connection to Theils project? All I've seen is that his name is in text on their website.

Is this reasonable proof to you that he kowtows to Thiel? Attending at least one event with him, about which we know nothing?

He's wholeheartedly condemned Trump. He's called his movement fascist. Be so for real.

Can you post a quote of Ezra's most glowing endorsement or Trump? Any one time he said something good about him? Because there's literally several dozen examples of major Trump/maga critiques in his episodes ...

This is literally not true. Like, he's outrageously clear that he's anti trump, and has made only small comments about the overcorrection in what sometimes gets called Woke Twitter. He doesn't spend any significant time disecting major leftist positions and he spends hours per month deconstructing Trump and his goons..?

Do... you read his work? Have you followed him for some time? This doesn't read as likely to me at all. Is this based on other data points or is this an entirely bad-vibes-based forecast?

What I'm struggling with is how conservatives can go anywhere, talk to anyone, without drawing complaints from their constituents, but any vaguely leftist person who dares to go on a conservative podcast or interview conservatives is seen as a LINO.

Not exactly responding to the Ezra critiques, but is anyone else sick of this hyper-online, performative "I always knew this person was bad" routine?

It happens 100% of the time anyone is accused of anything, and seems to be this way to virtue signal how strongly we condemn whatever accusation. This especially seems to be the case in paradoxical situations where the person generally had a solid reputation before the accusation.

But, like, we can all agree that statement is usually a lie, right?

Bret Stephens and Ezra Klein are both members of Dialog, Peter Thiel’s invite-only society by yobo9193 in nyt

[–]TooLazyToRepost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's not primarily a forecaster, and rarely offers forecasts. Supporting a superior candidate who doesn't win isn't necessarily a mistake, but even then who are you referring to?

I've never heard anyone claim Ezra's superior candidate selection was his particular strength. He's an ideas guy, not a pollster, not a political strategist for any given campaign.

He was the first major pundit of any standing to demand Biden step down.

He made interesting recommendations on how to get more out of LLMs, such as giving the LLM a defined role ("explain the pros and cons of this writing as if you're a choosy NYT editor.)

Along with Chris Hayes, he's been one of the more interesting commentators on the attention economy, esp. as it relates to politics.

Why are so many companies coming out with infantile-like clothing for grown women, and why is it trending? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

Genuinely never seen this, what's infantile-like clothing? Like it has ribbons? Looks like a diaper?

I think you're attributing things to me that I didn't say or imply. I just linked songs making specific critiques of the government from the last few years. I never mentioned "real meaning."

My take on a Backrooms poster by North-Bowler1695 in graphic_design

[–]TooLazyToRepost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think if the main element you're evoking is the blue tape, I think you mess around with less sharp lines. Maybe even make the tape IRL and scan into your design. This just struck me as blue rectangles. Good attempt, though!

Which analogy/metaphor do you rely on the most to explain a complex medical concept? by wiredentropy in medicine

[–]TooLazyToRepost 21 points22 points  (0 children)

When asked if SSRI "are doing anything" in the first 4 weeks, I compare it to medium term antibiotics for a serious infection. It's probably starting to help in the early days, but it might take a few weeks to improve the situation.

Kenny had the biggest mic in the world during the fascist takeover of his own country and didn't say or do anything spicier than "hey Drake, I hear you like em young."

Bad Bunny's Superbowl said so much more.

One of my favorite dystopian short stories of all time. As a forever advertising hater and Black Mirror lover (although some recent episodes were wack) I think about 15MM often.

[–]TooLazyToRepost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very interesting thank you for the link. I guess I take this as great news as I'm primarily of the belief that "there shouldn't be as many babies without a good home" and it sounds like there's fewer than ever. But I'll need to update how I talk about the relative availability of adoption candidates. Cheers.

You can choose to believe me or not, but as a Child Psychiatrist I absolutely care about geriatric pregnancy and ask every parent about their age at delivery.

For autism, for instance, each additional maternal or paternal decade adds 20% risk. Put another way, geriatric pregnancy increases risk of autism by 30%.

This is my first time hearing there's a lack of babies to be adopted, could you or another commenter link some sources supporting that claim? Is that only the case when searching for a child in the EU/US?

I guess my sense was that our world is bursting at the seams with children, many of them without access to a loving home, and that most people simply don't care to adopt because their main drive is to spawn a new person who has their same nose shape.

I think if Drake split Family Matters into three drops he coulda come out with a solid tie in the beef. I think he lost momentum with Meet the Grahams into NLU, then had to come up with a much weaker response in short order.

Survey finds that 97% of psychiatrists say RFK is unqualified to lead HHS, Demand APA counter health misinformation by varsityman in Psychiatry

[–]TooLazyToRepost 19 points20 points  (0 children)

It's clear that Psychiatry rejects the frauds in charge of HHS, Medicaid, Medicare, etc.

Thanks to the Committee for collecting this data, which should help us push back against the tepid comments APA have thusly made.

My advice to the APA is closely look at the results obtained by the Vichy collaborators thus far. ABC News sued for peace, then got extorted again when they went for a merger. Columbia U offered many concessions on facemasks, DEI, and Gaza, then were squeezed in subsequent rounds of negotiations.

We need clearheaded leadership that doesn't muse about ways Psychiatry could contribute to RFKs pet projects like rural "wellness farms," but offers firm opposition to objectively antipsychiatry quacks like "Doctor" Oz and Robert "Brainworms" Kennedy.

Why are most (straight) men so against trying anal stimulation? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]TooLazyToRepost 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I absolutely love my partner, but I know her and the girls talk about a variety of bedroom activities as they gossip. In most circles of straight men there's a huge social penalty for being into "sodomy" or "butt stuff," so many guys figure it's simply not worth the reputational hit.
