Conservatives have much better self-reported mental health but if you ask about “mood” instead the gap vanishes which raises the question of whether we’re just seeing a gap in comfort with mental health talk.

"Fascism is the act of self-deception in service of making your own life more painful, solely for the payoff of making life more painful for people you dislike."
Key clarification of the idea that fascism is the ideology of dead-end losers; supported by research on racists & misogynists.

Here’s one interaction I experienced with Jesse Singal. It was over Littman’s discredited ‘Rapid Onset Gender Dysphoria’ (ROGD) PlosOne article. In the thread he selectively quoted, I noted the striking similarities between Wakefield’s bunk autism paper with Littman’s ROGD paper— 1/n

You surely know that Greenland sharks live for centuries — but did you know that females likely *don't reach sexual maturity until they're older than the oldest human who has ever lived*?

The fact that this laughably bad study was published, promoted in major news outlets and continues to guide government policy doesn't bother him.
What bothers him is that someone online characterized this process as a 'redaction.'

Fisman & Tuite used 🔥 modelling to show higher uptake of COVID vax reduces (not blocks) odds of infection at pop'n level. Of course, for high risk folks (asthma, immunocompromised, any diabetes, ❤️ condition, etc), that's not enough.

Using medieval records and modern scientific tools, the burial site was localised without the need of a full-scale excavation:

Verrückter Fakt des Tages: #vfdt
Die Schnecke Elysia chlorotica isst einmal Pflanzen - und kann danach lange Zeit Photosynthese betreiben. Sie baut die Chloroplasten einer Alge in ihren eigenen Körper ein, und kann dann fast wie eine Pflanze das Licht der Sonne in Energie umwandeln.
