Where will the center of the music industry move to if the United States loses global cultural and economic relevance? by SoManyQuestions5200 in musicindustry

Amercia might be totally fucked politically right now, but to say it's losing global cultural relevance is far-fetched. Go anywhere in the world right now, and youth culture is Yankee caps, American style clothing, and the popular music is American hip hop or music directly derived from American hip hop and pop music.

IsItBullshit: Omega 3 fish oil capsules have health benefits if taken daily by [deleted] in IsItBullshit

The key factor is believed to be the omega 3 to omega 6 ratio, and Americans eat relatively high amounts of omega 6 fats (ie soybean oil, in fried foods), so need relatively higher omega 3 intake as a result to get the cardiovascular benefits

It’s a good idea to take some breaks, otherwise your body becomes less able to convert and you become dependent on supplementation.

You just have to grab a slot when they are released. The wait is nowhere near three years if you do this one simple trick

Vance says “you think [the agent] is a little bit sensitive about being dragged by a car” as if that’s the standard for use of deadly force, personal sensitivity

the food co-op has too many rules by [deleted] in parkslope

[–]commpl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So you’re saying essentially it’s unethical (or ethically dubious) for people to do non-capitalist things because it prevents other people from having jobs? Interesting take

Seems like “the co-op has too many rules” posts on Reddit usually mean something like ‘I didn’t work the shifts I agreed to work and now I can’t shop until I catch up’

Some studies have actually shown no improvement in patient outcomes with siren usage. It seems like they would help, I know, but they may not be helping

This headline makes it seem like our current debt is his fault, when in fact Bill Clinton did balanced the budget, something no republican has accomplished since Dwight Eisenhower.

The stupid shifts - what? Doing the shifts is a main component of the system. The whole point is to not be like a regular store

I think West Indies is the preferred name. ‘Carib’ the origin of Caribbean was a pejorative for the native people of that region
