If the commute was included in workplace deaths and injuries, I wonder where it would rank with OSHA’s statistics

NDAs are very much legally enforceable lol. A nitable time they aren’t, is if there has been illegal activity the NDA is trying to compel you to keep secret.
I’ll test the blackjack machines
If this country cared about the environment or workers’ safety, they’d fine companies who make employees work in the office/on site when they could work from home instead.
What’s absolutely insane to me, is that other CEOs think that’s fair and fine and that Elon is very smart and not a con artist? No wonder Elizabeth Holmes got so far. It’s just so obvious he’s not above board
I have celiac and it’s amazing how big of a deal being low in one (or more) vitamins can be. I have gotten deficient often enough that I can almost recognize each type of tiredness from my most common deficiencies. Being tired from anemia/low iron is definitely different than being tired from a vitamin b deficiency, for instance. And being simultaneously deficient in vitamins that work together - like calcium and magnesium, or vitamins a, d, e, and k - also feels different than being deficient in just 1 of these vitamins.
When people tell me they crave a lot of certain foods, that’s a sign that their body wants whatever vitamin is in that food. If your body hasn’t tried a lot of other healthier foods, it won’t have learned their nutritional content and won’t crave it. Potatoes (in potato chips) contain small amounts of metals like copper, zinc, lithium, iron. Corn similarly has vitamins, I do not eat much corn so idk what all it has in it.
However, just because you’re getting a tiny bit of zinc from a whole bag, doesn’t make the chips good for you. They come with other nutrients including sodium which are excessive and should be balanced with a good potassium intake (like a bottle of coconut water). Your body isn’t meant to process huge loads of wasteful food, and that comes at a price. Eating more efficiently with more nutrient dense foods is best (especially dark leafy greens which contain chlorophyll which can actually make ATP in your blood stream for basically “free” - free energy).
Last, we all have different genetics. Not all of us need the exact same diet or vitamins. Some of us literally need extra vitamin A (do you have genes from either the north or south pole, such as Russian or Native American? You might want to take slightly extra vitamin A along with other fat soluble vitamins like vitamin D). And every vitamin is like this, some being more serious than others. Some people can’t eat much tyramine without developing possible life threatening brain bleeds and high blood pressure. Olives contain tyramine as does certain types of red wine - many cultures eat these in volume and have no problem but some people just can’t.
“You are what you eat” ended up being real wisdom
I’m confused - who are they giving the $700 to? Is it monthly? Why is someone charging them money for it?
I did try to open the article but it wouldn’t load on my phone
Sex work can have an emotional element to it as well.
I am for sex work, I am against sex abuse.
Never said that. Strawman. 🥱
I didn’t provide a conclusion, I asked you a question - how do you pick the official, global sign for eating? What will it look like?
come to consensus based on commonality. When the majority agree on a sign, use it So then why even debate? If majority decides, why not just use Chinese sign language for everything?
If you can’t understand the colonization aspect, then please read the books/authors I listed previously. Having a majority decide language for others/everyone is pretty classic colonization. That’s part of why native Americans were forced to learn English (many of your arguments are very similar to why colonizers believed English should be established as a global lingua franca)
You are simply moving goalposts. My point is that I disagree with your idea of making sign language universal or formally making even a rudimentary universal sign language. I think that would be impossible if you understand language itself. I gave you resources so you could educate yourself about why.
Yes, the sign for eating would look different in China vs Ethiopia vs the US. So what sign are you going to have it be to imitate eating in your formal language? Do you see how this can perpetuate colonization?
I can tell you only speak one language, or maybe another Latin based language in addition to English. If you’d learned something like Mandarin, you’d understand how complex, regional, and historical language is. It’s based on layers and shifts constantly. Sometimes, that’s specifically because people don’t want to be understood by everyone.
I really recommend reading academic books about this topic if you are curious. My favorite is Neurolinguistics and Linguistic Aphasiology, by David Caplan. You may also enjoy Chomsky’s works because he talks about commonalities in language or universal language.
There’s no need to formally codify those hand gestures, because we innately already understand and make them. Making eating motions (which may look different depending on regional utensils) is pretty universal right? But it looks different in different places.
Actually in the wheelchair community, there can indeed be pressure to use the least assistive wheelchair possible. Chairs aren’t 100% seen as liberating and there’s a lot of nuance into why people pick certain chairs beyond finances. My aunt repeatedly fell out of her chair because she insisted on one made for a lower back injury than she has. She kept it for status, because she looks more able without the sides.
I guess ‘differently abled,’ just comes across as ableism to me. Not using visible signs of a disability, like a chair or hearing aids, can be internalized ableism. Some of the worst verbalized ableism I’ve heard has come from disabled communities. It’s a very complicated topic, not least because disability is used to harm disabled people and take away their agency. And for many, there is a lot of grief with using assisitive devices.
That being said, I don’t think people should be forced to change or to use devices they dislike. My aunt still uses her chair, it’s not like we’re going to drag her into another one or whatever. I just wanted to point out the internalized ableism that could be contributing to this attitude and word change.
It wasn’t so long ago that the Civil rights Era stopped disabled people from being chained in attics and lobotomized and hid away. It’s entirely reasonable to fear that association.
You misunderstand language itself, not just sign language, if you think a universal language is possible or even a good thing
Govt is spying on us to force us into espionage or other acts (eg witness testimony). They don’t care about harm done to others unless there’s an outcry.
Lmfao, you mean you lost this argument thoroughly and you’re too much of a baby to admit you were wrong.
No, and you fundamentally misunderstand biology, genetics, and race.
In essence, per Robert Saplosky, race is a cultural construct, not a genetic or biological one. He has his entire Stanford lecture on human behavior including human genetics on YouTube. He also has several books explaining this. Here’s a link to a summary video: https://youtu.be/YVT5iIXdjek?si=jXKvfd3fUEdQcjMx
Just because you can reactively type people into races, doesn’t make race a real biological phenomenon. There are plenty of races that look like others, plenty of admixture that ruins your theories. Sickle cell anemia can exist in white people (people who appear to look white) who have black ancestry, but you wouldn’t know they have either sickle cell or black ancestry from looking at them. Because race ISNT genetics. There are people within the same family who are different races, one who is lighter and one who is darker, etc. And melanin production is only one small component of the cultural cues we see as someone’s race.
Again, it’s not biological and no real scientist would think that.
I’m not trying to infer, I’m asking you questions to further understand your position here. What’s your issue with porn specifically? Why is porn bad for people? You’re the one asserting this (“porn is as much a problem” implies it’s still a problem at some level) on an open forum, please explain. What’s so bad about being naked in a movie or picture and someone else watching that? We have bodies. We are adults. So what?
We’ve had infinite porn scrolling for a while now with image searches. The issue with addiction and scrolling is usually related to predatory algorithms (which op doesn’t appear to have used) and also neurochemical differences in individuals. However, addiction in terms of neurochemical balances is a highly controversial topic and in general, I side with the idea that each person should own their own body and be able to do what they like as long as it doesn’t harm others. So if someone is comfortable with watching porn all day every day and that feels fine for them, then I think that is fine as well.
There’s no need to monitor another person’s addiction and the only reason you’d want to, is if you were codependent or parentified as a child (codependency is an addiction too). I get providing your opinion and sources, but you have yet to provide a single source or even specifically say what the issue is, besides some vague concern over infinite scrolling in general. You come across as being reactive and not actually founded in any kind of moral or scientific consistency. That’s fine if that’s the case, but then maybe you should acknowledge that you could be wrong here unless you’re backing it up with sources and sound reasoning.
Yes
