Good tip, thanks!
Good tip, thanks!
The other sources are

Which cites the BMJ

I thought this article explained the science better than the Psychiatric Times, so I used it. Lesson learned.
I agree, the source is poor. But I thought the summary was better than the one offered here:

Bruce E. Levine is just some guy. Not great. But the sources he cites made the case for me:

I myself am and have been on psychotropics for years, don’t know what I would do without them. Further, as noted, the the STAR*D approach drops from 67% to 35%, which means they do work for some. But reporting that high a rate when the numbers don’t support it is information patients need. The original study seems very problematic with patients that dropped out assigned success rates, and the lack of a control group. I think the information is relevant.
Dear Nitwit,
A reduced faith in science might, hear me out here, ••might•• have something to do with science, ya know, killing the planet and what not. You wanna get some faith back? Maybe apply these new technologies to human happiness, or even, who knows human survival.
One more thing, nimrod. The real risk averse culture? It ain’t your unwashed “zero-sum thinking Millennials” No, it’s your hyper capitalist who’s rigged the system to the point where taking financial risk is erased by government bailouts. They’re the ones who want to eliminate risk.
And it’s that, plus their increased control of what is and is not researched in practised science that leads to our dismay. See above: “planet dying” Imagine something like pencillin, developed entirely within an academic risky environment, getting made today.
There’s risk in true critical thinking, instead of lazy “Kids Today” hand-wringing. So, in future, take a fucking risk.
Yeah, I really got to start looking at photos before I post them. The picture does make it look a bit … poop adjacent.
Great article, with lots of historical explanations on the theory of how these lenses work, and how optics works in general. Learned a bit today. Thanks!
Is anyone else using invidio.us type Firefox plug-ins to deal with this? I don’t know if it’s better for privacy, but I like the illusion of sticking it to the man. And the lack of ads.
Two things here. I was forced to go induction when I moved house about fifteen years ago, and I love it. It’s just better than gas. I’m terrible at many things, but I’m a good cook, and I can say, there’s nothing I can do - nothing - that isn’t better on induction. Admittedly, not crazy about the waste of new things, but even so, worth it.
Also, turns out, Big Natural Gas lied to you. It’s dangerous (which the article states). This is a carrot and stick. I’m all electric, and working on solar soon.
I think that’s a great recommendation. I really admire your admission of not being anywhere near zero waste. Me neither! But it’s better to do better than do nothing. The zero waste movement can get quite fanatical, which is a turn off. Especially if it’s about shopping for things to be zero waste with.
I don’t do everything right, but I do bring my own bags. But it took years, and like any habit, and like you said, it’s about feeling. I’d walk into a store, and it would start to feel weird if my hand is empty. If you forget to bring your bag today, bring it tomorrow. The feelings develop over time.
I know because I’ve switched recently to getting my bread and croissants in a wax-cloth bag (instead of the throwaway papers). It’s been about six months, and I get it right … about half the time.
Thank you.
So sorry, I didn’t see if the article worked. I’m an idiot.

If you liked that, you’re going to love this. It’s almost exactly the price tag to switch - completely - to renewables.

I know, I know, many studies, many different amounts, but come on! Let’s try!
Sorry about that, mine is working fine. Here’s the original.

It’s hard to beat Big Black’s version “The Model” in this regard, but award for the most esoteric would have to be Atom and His Package covering The Mountain Goats “Going to Georgia”, both great and totally different songs.
Great article, definitely need to be thinking more about how to communicate, rather than just saying what’s happening. Which is not really working.
Someone beat me to Four Winds but …
40’ - Franz Ferdinand
504 - Old 97s
1970 In Aspic - Robyn Hitchcock
2 Time - Architecture in Helsinki
and an old number-based favourite:
88 Lines About 44 Women - The Nails
I think that’s a still from Green Room, a very good and very disturbing film with none other than Sir Patrick Stewart as a Nazi/replacement theory Svengali-type character. The joke being the band in the movie is booked unaware into a straight up nazi punk club, and end up singing that song. Things develop from there. I hope I got that right, but that’s my memory.
I didn’t know he played in a real band. Cool beans!
