BMI is an epidemiological tool. It has value as one data point in the analysis of population-wide health. It is of little value to a given individual. That doesn’t mean that it is bullshit, it just means it may not mean anything in the assessment of an individual patient. On the population level, there are high…

BMI and all of it associated what not may be bullshit, but

BMI, as has been stated many times, is bunk.

What this whole dilemma reinforces to me is how toxic it is to over-intellectualize sexual desire, particularly at either extreme end, and how much extreme progressive movements can reinforce that problem if unchecked. At some point, what is there to gain from endlessly questioning if what one finds sexually…

We shouldn’t be praising anyone for being in the Israeli Armed Forces, let alone the desensitizing nature of having served.

They’ve been so try-hard for so long that I don’t even need to read the whole article. They’re boring AND exhausting.

There were a handful of bars that I enjoyed but overall, I don’t understand why this was released as a single. 

When asked about whether or not Wheeler’s choice to stop his medication should play any role in the legal process, Starr’s answer was complicated. “It’s not useful when talking about domestic violence to try and obsess about one specific thing,” she said. “It doesn’t change what happened to this woman and it doesn’t…

He admitted to it. 

I know this is gonna sound crazy but maybe if we had a military that didn’t send people out to unnecessary wars, then bring them home wounded and not provide them with good health insurance or job prospects (other than police work and other work requiring the use of weaponry) we wouldn’t be in this mess. Or we’d be in…

Remember how they’re celebrated as the resistance?

The neo-con Lincoln Project is essentially a scam for liberals who think there are Republicans to be swayed (despite all the money donated to the Lincoln Project, Republicans actually voted at a higher rate for Trump than in 2016).

A bit of salt in the wounds of the last 4 years was seeing people who really, REALLY should have known better cheering for the motherfuckers at The Lincoln Project.

I’ve seen so many versions of “real whatevers don’t have to talk about how much of a whatever they are” and it’s always accurate.

This. There’s always some boneheaded commenter who says, “just live in a smaller house so one parent can stay home! It’s worth it!”

Did you even skim the article? He’s an incoming congressman. He won his election.
