According to the study’s authors, “our results suggest that household beliefs regarding future climate risks may be a larger determinant of underinsurance” than “policies that change the price of flood insurance.”

The US wasn't conducting a genocidal war in Afghanistan. The Russian government is explicitly attempting to erase Ukraine as an entity and anyone who calls themselves Ukrainian with it.

neither party when elected do anything meaningful to secure the border or deport illegals.

It might shock you to learn the best way to prevent immigration is to make the countries experiencing outflows more stable and liveable, but I'm gonna take a wild guess you don't like foreign aid.

maintain demographics

There sure was a lot of hand wringing before you wrote down what your actual problem with immigration was.

Pray tell what is the ideal demographic make up if the United States?

Imagine branding yourself with the image of a way to circumvent state authority only to lick the boot at the first opportunity.

Every year is the hottest on record too. The stakes in elections never go down and the problems only pile on.

I was going to say the same. Funny it gets written off today as a hoax when tons of people had to fix slews of bugs. It could've been bad, but fortunately the worst I heard about was some people getting stuck in some elevators.

Bold assumption that this child isn't being home"schooled".

How about we get someone who can win in a swing state so we can avoid Trump? Because right now from the polling it looks like Biden can't.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago

I'd vote for a literal corpse with a (D), but there's voters who are somehow undecided or ambivalent about fascism. The fact remains that the polling shows this hurts Biden in required swing states which is extremely concerning.

Saying that Biden needs to be replaced is not the same as saying don't vote for whoever is the Democratic candidate. I've been screaming into the void telling people to vote on Lemmy and even I think he needs to be switched out. The post debate polling is that damning.

If the dems shove it down our throats I'm still voting for him, but there's still a narrow window to get a better candidate and we should take it.

The article might have been well-informed and factual

Like many substacks purporting to give health information, its a massive link dump filled with unsupported suppositions in between. Reading all the links provided would give much more accurate information.

In the final paragraphs his insistence that everyone should be keto and not use any form of sunscreen gives away the fact he's a crank.

The point of an armorer on set is that they ensure that the guns aren't dangerous. The typical rules about "don't aim at something you don't want to destroy" doesn't apply in a movie because otherwise all the action sequences would look dumb with people firing wildly at the ground. How stupid would it look if John Wick shoots at the floor and blood spurts out of the guys face.

That said, anyone who hires a scab armorer gets what they pay for and deserve to be prosecuted.
