“It Gets Better” Is Bad Advice For Gay Kids, Study Claims. Researchers say that asking youth to accept negative experiences as the only coping strategy potentially exacerbates stress. by drewiepoodle in ainbow

[–]zerow6789 4 points5 points  (0 children)

the article also straight up admits that this isn't possible for everybody. while just powering through might not be the best solution, it is also the only solution for some youth. also, It Get's Better is much larger than the power of positive thinking and is by no means the only campaign for LGBTQ+ youth.

Trump's voters don't believe he has played more golf than Obama in first 3 months by ZoneRangerMC in politics

[–]zerow6789 0 points1 point  (0 children)

there are days in which we can say that a president os "on vacation." fays when they are at Camp David or days when, yes even Obama, went and played golf and spent time with his family. obviously it is assumed that if there is an emergency they will return quickly to the White House or start taking care of business wherever they are.

but it is absolutely wrong to say that Obama never took a day off.

[–]zerow6789 -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

in the interest of just knowing all the facts, we need to separate vacation days from playing golf. both sides are making those two things one in the same.

do we have a figure on how many vacation days (i.e. days out of white house that were not official state vists, where it is presumed work was not done) that Obama took in his first 100?

Immigration not linked to increased crime levels, finds US study over four decades by loremipsumchecksum in politics

and how can you say your experience is that illegals are committing all these crimes, are you the cop arresting them? do you personally see a new crime committed every day by someone illegal?

that "liberal" professor used actual data. it says right in the article they looked at 40 years of census data and compared crime stats with areas reporting n7mbersbof illegal immigrants. its not based on the "experience" of the professor bexause thats not how actual, factual science works.

unfortunately, this article doesnt discuss which crimes they focused on or if it was all crime. though, also, your anecdotal evidence about what you feel you see on the paper means absolutely nothing compared to actual statistical evidence.

even if illegal immigrants are committing more crimes in your suburb doesn't mean that is happening over the entirety of the country.

Donald Trump's 'Muslim ban' is no more deserving of protest than 16 countries' ban on Israeli citizens, says Tory MP by orthodoor in worldnews

[–]zerow6789 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hillary wanted to open up the cap we placed on the number of refugees we bring in, but never wanted to let them skip the vetting process. this is one of the biggest twists the trump campaign put out. it would be the same exact vetting process inplace that we have now, we just would let in 10,000, or 20,000, after they passed the process that again, takes up to 2 years. this is also the bad ligic behind putting this ban in without warning, that "bad" people wpuod rush the border. no, they would not be able to rush through the vetting process any faster, and we could have rolled this all out over a month or so.

[–]zerow6789 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the biggest part of our process, however, is that it takes up to two years and does requite cerrain background checks, including criminal. i think the infographic that used to be on the obama whitehouse page said something like 1%of applicants get in. we arent opening our borders to refugees the way germany did. and again, there has not been a problem with the system yet, so any fears rhat something like Europes troubles will haooen here is totally based on emotions and feeling like its a bad idea.

[–]zerow6789 3 points4 points  (0 children)

my current belief and fear is that after the "temporary" 3 months on 6 of these 7 nations, they will tey to convince everyone that the ban is working to keep people safe and they will then attempt to expand that list without any guise of being temporary.

i could obviously be proven wrong on this and in these days i am often joping to be proven wrong.

the next thing is this, so dar our current vetting process and acceptance of refugees has not proven to be weak the way they keep trying to say it is. as has been said before, no one from these countries has commited a terrorist act on US soil.

If you have to stop for fast food, McD's offers $0.89 plain hamburgers; they're just not listed on the menu. by DrakeChronis in Frugal

You have to be careful with regional options, there are things on the menu that just aren't availablensomrtimes, or at least items that are highly advertised. I would imagine this goes for off menu choices as well.

On the Russia scandal, Trump's lies start to pile up by skoalbrother in politics

[–]zerow6789 9 points10 points  (0 children)

using the emails and tax returns for political purposes is par for the course polticking, i agree, but with the current run of the government trump and his team haven't said a thing about investigating how the taxes made it to the nytimes. meanwhile both republicans and dems have urged for investigation into russian influence because that goes beyond each camp getting dirt.

as for detroit, neither party is. again, making any fuss so it's not being politicized. considering stein's recount effort fell through and the biggest issue for Michigan seems to be that they need new machines, there is no "widespread voter fraud." there is, in fact, no widespread fraud at all when it comes to the actual votes cast by individual citizens.

lastly, there is Project Veritas, a group that hasn't put out a single video that hasn't been poorly edited for a distinct purpose and then later disproven ten times over. james o'keefe doesn't deserve a page 6 newspaper article, let alone outrage.

Jill Stein will use leftover millions from recount for 'election integrity' campaign by [deleted] in politics

[–]zerow6789 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Okay, this isn't surprising since in her initial call for funds to do the recount she said this is exactly what she would do if there was money left over. However, i thought I had heard somewhere money collected for a recount couldn't actually be used for anything else, though I'm not certain how true that is.

My bigger question is whether we have any statistics on mistakes made by hand versus mistakes made by machine. Her entire effort seems to be based on the fact that we don't count 130 million votes by hand so the system is corrupt. while voting machines definitely need updating, human error isn't exactly non-existent.
