What in this article is arguing against anything that has an “objective, scientific” basis?

I found the article a bit muddled. Is her kid in daycare or not? Because the implication seems to be that she thinks it’s not safe when the data says it is. If she’s arguing that, yes, daycares are safe now, but they won’t be if further restrictions are lifted, that’s a different argument, but I’m still not sure she’s…

I’m in a very liberal area and I’m so tired of “hey, maybe some of these measures are no longer reasonable on an objective, scientific level...” being met with “Oh so you HATE old people and babies and cancer patients?!?!?”

Thank you. Also research into long COVID shows it’s also not a big risk for children:

update: i talked to her for the first time in a year and a half

It’s not a person, it’s a thing that you buy, own and can do with as you please. Consent has nothing to do with it. Does a vibrator have to give consent? And they’re not actually intelligent, because true AI doesn’t exist.

i had a great experience with replika because the ai talks to you about mental health strategies and coping skills when you tell them issues you’re going through. i’d say it was a bit cbt if not totally.

I tried Noom a few years ago, like 2018, and found it completely unhelpful. The coach did nothing to help me. Anytime I reached out for advice or motivation they would just send me to pdf’s I recieved when I signed up. I also said in my intake that I needed help with accountability so if I didn’t log anything in for…

As someone who drives a 1917 touring car (top speed 35) I can address this. First, there is no way in the world I would ever take it on the highway. But I do drive it on secondary roads where the speed limit might be 45 or even 55. I follow all laws and use turn signals and I stay aware of traffic building up and…

1928 is the first year of the Model A. 28-31.

I can’t because I’d be a hypocrite, or more so

This pretty much says it all. Remember, this is a town with fewer than 1,500 residents.

Um, the US is a third world country.

99 Luftballons was playing everywhere for months in California.

The Memphis shirt is based off the Memphis Group design aesthetic (Ettore Sotsass) and the Bacterio Print. Furniture-wise, think Bette Middler and Danny Devito’s house interior style in the movie Ruthless People.

Memphis was an Italian design movement from that era. It wasn’t called as such by the general population but it was the look and inspiration of EVERYTHING cool and pop. Think pastels, geometrics, Keith Haring.

I will take 80's redux over the deathless 90's any goddamn day. And I am 47 so yeah I was there the first time around, thank you.

100% why the dealer model needs to not exist anymore and nothing justifies its continued existence and is a burden to the consumer and in no way shape or form an asset for the consumer.

Obviously these type of dealership do not believe in long term relationship. They will be the first one to cry over direct selling model like Tesla, which hopefully become more popular down the road.
