Right, and that leads to issues with men seeking help. Men don’t get needed therapy at the same rate, and our suicide rates are way higher. So I guess one can answer your original question with: women can get help without as much social stigma.

Note to anyone reading: It’s not weak to see a physical therapist, so it’s not weak to see a mental one. You see a therapist to be strong, regardless of the which part of your body (muscles or brain) you’re training. You also don’t need to be having an issue in order to get therapy. Sometimes it’s just nice to talk through everyday things, and learn ways to cope with small things.

The sad thing is that the rest of the world knew.

It’s Scientific American, not Complete Bullshit American.

Ooooooooh. Damn. We’re never getting Shang-Chi 2.

Different studios. But yeah, we need Shang-Chi 2.

Look at the sentence you wrote. Since the Korean War. And the Korean War was the biggest since the one before that.

Turn the news off and look at the data. It’s important to end these conflicts, but in terms of scale, these are far smaller than the past.

Here’s homicides per capita in Western Europe. I highly recommend reading The Better Angels of Our Nature by Steven Pinker. It goes into this in depth.

Violence has been going down for centuries. We’re hearing about it more, but it’s declining. It peaked around 1993, and it’s been trending downward ever since.

If you zoom out and look at super long term trends, it’s been declining for centuries.

Misery 2

I was hoping this teaser would show the wolf man and it would be way different than what we saw before. That, mixed with the fact that it’s being released in January, makes me think it’s going to be bad.

I’ve been excited about this movie since The Invisible man. I see one image, and suddenly I’m not excited at all.

This is how I feel too. Studies show that 30% of gym goers are on steroids as well. So keep at it and don’t feel bad that you’re not at the top.

Also Britain in the Canadian colonies in 1812.

When you short a stock, you borrow a stock, then sell it, then you buy it back at a (ideally) lower price. Then, you have to give back the stock plus interest. This person can’t sell the stock because they have to give it back. It wasn’t theirs to begin with. They were just borrowing it.

Yes. Before germ theory and the 1918 pandemic, this was a common thing.

fawning celebration of its subject

That’s all I needed to hear to know that it’s bad.

I’d even be happy if it just became an animated series. I just don’t want it left where they left it. You can’t introduce Plagueis and not tell me about his tragedy.

You don’t choose from where you get your oil. There’s one oil market. You can choose to ban imports of oil from certain countries (like Russia).

The better move is just to migrate further away from oil usage altogether.

Breaking Bad was great from beginning to end. This is a list of finales that over-performed the rest of the episodes.

Star Wars fan here. Star Trek has always been an incredible example in pop culture of progressive values. They’ve supported love in all its forms, diversity, inclusion, and other “woke” values. They’ve created a world where everyone looks out for each other, protects each other, and includes each other. Star Trek is the future I want to live in. So, to all Star Trek fans, I give you a very enthusiastic “live long and prosper”.

At least the roll is hung the right way.

Dim Sum at Chef Tony

This is the way I do it. I still hear about everything, I just don’t need to seek it out. And I still feel very informed enough to vote.

Last show I watched with a crashing plane, there were a lot of unanswered questions, characters died, people came up with conspiracy theories, and it ended with the audience really upset. Sounds accurate.

Let the record show that I gave the 34th upvote to this comment…

Remember that if you’re an American citizen, you can make this happen. Never assume it’ll happen without your vote.

*promised to give. Anyone following self-driving cars over the last decade knows Elon’s promises are worth nothing.

Next you’re going to say we should stop asking wealth hoarders how they became billionaires.

Hear me out. Terminator needs to pull a Prey/Godzilla Minus One. The T-1000 can’t kill Sarah Connor before John is born? Send another one to kill Sarah Connor’s great grandmother. It’s the turn of the century, and a T-1000 is hunting a young adult in 1895. I’d watch that. It’s be a smaller budget, but it’d be so exciting because Great Granny Connor has to be incredibly resourceful in order to take out a beast like that.

They probably meant to write High Republic

This is why I see it as a good thing. No more cut same-sex kisses, no more shrinking the black character on the poster. Let’s leave the CCP behind and move on without them.

HTML is not a programming language

Tim Walz seems like the kind of guy who does a tune up of your bike because he knows how busy you’ve been and just wants to help.

Tim Walz seems like the kind of guy who invites you over for dinner and then sends you home with the leftovers.

Tim Walz seems like the kind of guy who has an old, but still pretty great TV you can have if you want it.

Exactly. I find that I sign the back of checks and write brief sentences in birthday cards. Neither of those feel like they’ll be around for a lot longer.

Fair enough. Most people don’t encounter analog clocks anymore. And many of us have smart watches or phones where we check the time. Since I have a non-analog watch, I don’t find I ever look at analog clocks anymore. If it’s in a room, I just don’t notice it. Growing up, it was important to know, but now I just never have a use for it. Learning is important, but there are so many more interesting and useful things to learn.

You could also make an argument about automatic or manual cars. Sure, we could teach our kids how to drive manual, but why? Most cars are automatic. If they want to have a manual car, they can learn. Otherwise it’s just a useless skill.

There are fewer and fewer applications for writing, but it’s still more important than reading an analog clock.

I actually agree with you. I can read an analog clock, but what worth is the skill? Most clocks are digital, and it gives me nothing more to read an analog one. People downvoting you is just silly. Some skills are allowed to die out if they add no value in modern life.

I’m willing to bet that they’re using the same Barbie character in the same universe as what Greta and Margot created. It’s well within their rights, but it’s just a bit rude not to include them or even get their input.

Not the thing you want to do if you want their involvement in a sequel live-action movie.

It’ll take so long before you can even leave your physical ID at home and count on everyone accepting your digital one. And it may never happen that people stop accepting your physical one.
