I like you. An upvote isn’t enough. Thanks for saying important points I never see and we need more of. For saying something that is clearly your own formed opinion and not parroting what figurehead or social media bubble is saying

Before I could drive and had to walk everywhere??? DAILY
Yeah thanks for pointing out something that sort of tickled my brain for a while now and made the thought full formed. I’m going to start pointing this out because it is WILD that we have a culture of saving children from the predators and then also blaming children for being preyed on. And it’s just the one side.
How much hypocrisy can someone swallow ffs???
Yeah they aren’t bad but the nature of this type of thing is largely statistics and self reporting and all sorts of other stuff smarter more scientific, academic minded people could point out than my stoned brain recalls. Things that can be interpreted differently much like translators could translate the same scene between characters with different dialog and undertones.
I mean it isn’t like they are outright disproven or liars or anything… just it is often up for scrutiny because that is the nature of sociology.
Freakonomics talked about this ages ago
Not that they are a proper source or anything just… one of those things where it feels true and you keep seeing examples of it forever
When I see the most depraved defense from lawyers like this it just tells me that the person is so fucking guilty that I now suspect them guilty of even more than we know.
Ikr I am doubting my understanding of what I read. He is trying to add a new amendment to the constitution! That’s pretty neat. I don’t know my history well enough to know if this is uncommon but it is a new experience for me, so I also really appreciate that.
Instead of being like… bigoted shit.
“The agency claims authority to regulate everything from a power lawnmower’s design,” he wrote, “to the level of ‘contact between trainers and whales at SeaWorld.’”
I fail to see anything wrong with either thing like… is he just mad it is not the people who sell lawn mowers should decide what’s safe?? Please please please don’t tell me Americans are going to dip to this new level of cognitive dissonance
Just not nearly as much, and most importantly they are held much less accountable for those things without OSHA or similar oversight…
I love how these look like Lego pieces snapped onto a green base.
Even if all that is painted cement or something it is also just really refreshing to see architecture, especially the sort of necessity eyesore that tech architecture/engineering requires, also being mindfully the environment it will exist in to some degree. Even if it is only visual.
Edit (and gonna reply to this edit the same thing cuz lemmy sucks at showing them and this is important) Ok I read another comment and it definitely put into context for me how this is hypocrital too!!! They wanna protect the children while doing this shit in unexpected places in front of children where it is much more graphic, traumatizing, and upsetting than the sanitized facts you’re getting , in an environment you’re anticipating and prepared for it and can sorta joke with classmates too …
They wanna outlaw that but she’s down to whip a dick out and get sloppy in public.
Sorry to be pedantic but this isn’t being a hypocrite is it? I see it more like absolute ignorance, tiger ate my face, refusal to acknowledge science data and facts, etc that is also all very republican 101. But for once idk how hypocrite just thr extra layer of stupid

To actually explain why, I think it’s because the theory is our president and politicians are supposed to be actually representing the people and have their saftey, best interest, and goals and/or morals in mind first and foremost.
Damn I can see how that sounded perfect forever ago. Wonder which of our proposed solutions to current problems would have similar unexpected consequences, and I wonder what those would look like.
Sorry if none of this made sense or was coherent to anyone. Don’t try to reread it I’m just high
This is significant. Starvation, nutrient deprivation, on a developing brain that young can and will likely lead to all sorts of development problems with physiology and psychology.
This is NOT just damn how sad that kids are hungry. This is the welfare gap, poverty, class repression also in action. There are long term consequences to prepubescent children not getting enough food
What can I do?
