  • From the abstract, emphasis mine

    “Moreover, although inequality initially seemed to undermine mental health, the publication-bias-corrected association was null”

    Maybe this term is reasonable and I’m just not familiar with the field of study, but this sounds suspiciously like “when you ignore all the woke dei nonsense” dressed up in academic language.

    Edit: it also points out that economic inequality does cause adverse mental health outcomes but only in low income people so that can be ignored for the conclusion. Honestly I feel like my takeaway is that getting published in Nature doesn’t mean what it used to

    Assuming the probability distribution falls off like a gaussian, I’d guess something like 3.5 to 4 times as large. I dont remember if that specific probability density function is gaussian or not, but assuming a distribution falls off like a gaussian is usually a safe bet

    I think the problem is less horny 14yos and more the fact that they listen to scum like Andrew Tate or the Paul brothers growing up. I see so many teenagers who live a life where the only voice in their life that speaks positively of/to them is the chud on social media trying to groom them into an angry incel. Let’s be better than blaming children for the fact that we as a society have given up the act of raising kids in favor of generating more shareholder value. It’s not the kids’ fault that both of their parents probably work 50+ hour weeks to survive and youtube is the only parent in the house most of the time

    The one I remember most clearly is like… sorry in advance for tmi. Do not continue reading if you dont want to read a sex story

    So we tended to do a decent amount of foreplay, and this night it was really hot and heavy. She was really seductively trying to get me to say I needed to be inside her, and we were on that line of fooling around for a while in a way we were both really into. At one point I’m on my back and she’s teasing me while straddling me, and I finally give in and tell her I need her. What does she do? Gives me the most Samuel Jackson ass expression she can muster and a “shit negro, that’s all you had to say!” I almost died laughing

    “Would you like to make a donation to our corporate tax bill?”

    Never give em a cent. They make enough money to donate themselves if they want the tax benefits of charity, and you can always donate directly to charity without it being laundered through some corporation that is literally only doing it because they get to claim YOUR charity on their taxes that way.

    My biological father did that shit every time we went to a restaurant while I was growing up. Then he’d usually try to get them to flirt with me, starting from when I was like 8. I still hate going to restaurants with table service decades later

    Was working on a PhD in CS focused on industrial cybersecurity, though current events involving the three letter agency that funded my research lead to me crashing out and now I’m trying to get into law school and do immigration law. Far too frail and pasty to buy a farm though
