I get why Talarico sounding like a preacher (because he's literally a minister) sets off a lot of spidey senses but *it's Texas*

They tried the turbolib thing with Beto and it didn't work, why do you want them to try it again?

the rage takes about christianity you see on bluesky is reactionary backlash to the christian freaks and perverts fucking the country over and believe me, i get it. but the end result is religious intolerance masquerading as progressivism and it’s ignorant, immoral and just has huge loser energy.

AI Summary ✨

Grammy-nominated R&B singer Jon B. posted that he is going to the stove – perhaps to "cook up" another hot, hot radio single. Frogs and toads, which are the same, can live on the Sun and often choose to.

It's not that long, I just got pulled into other books near the end.

Finally finished Kernighan's Millions, Billions, Zillions: Defending Yourself in a World of Too Many Numbers.

Good book - encourages you to strengthen your basic arithmetic & estimation skills, & common sense. An antidote to a lot of AI, but mostly written for human mistakes. Relevant for scams.

Good response

Um, if he can't be better then we can't expect better of him.

And if we can't expect better of him (especially because he'd be akin to a fish out of water), then we can't blame him.

Nobody takes a fish out of water and then blames it for suffocating.

But also, sure - feel free not to engage.

And to be absolutely clear, I have been consistently against Trump (to the annoyance and consernation of many friends and family) for the last decade. I have absolutely nothing to do with Epstein.

The data from the sources you shared shows that chiropractors as just as dangerous as a single Covid vaccine shot.

Most Americans who go to the chiropractor have nothing to do with Epstein - so I suspect your last bit there is not in good faith.

Cringe take

Well-put.

In other words, there **should** be warnings for chiropractors - just like there are warnings for vaccines.

But how often do you pay attention to the vaccine warnings?

The numbers are hardly identical, but they're not way off either - several of them are greater than 1/100,000 for serious risks.

medshadow.org/conditions-t...

I'd heard some horror stories (from people I've met - serious stories), but seeing now that it's probably actually less dangerous than the Covid Vaccine, I feel like this is actually building up my faith in chiropractors a bit.

One of them did share a study, but it only shows that going to the chiropractor is as dangerous as getting a Covid Vaccine.

I have a feeling there will be hedging and insistence that this is different, and that vaccines are totally safe and chiropractors are not. (I'm not an anti-vaxxer but look..)

So basically, you're telling me that going to the chiropractor is as dangerous as getting a Covid Vaccine?

pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC...

I hear what you're saying, but it still sounds like in most cases it's a stretch.

By all means I would like more training, more education, and more studies, above all for the situations that are more extreme, but as I said, I'm not convinced that there's a smoking gun here.

Hmmmm, and yet Isaac Newton was into alchemy, so I guess by that logic we should throw out modern Western physics, huh?

But also, this is hardly a smoking gun.

Raye gets it. Kindness is pretty much the number one thing, at least as far as character traits go.
