Jaxyon posted:Why don't you go ahead and help us understand what YMB meant. That's fine and all but it comes both from a misunderstanding of how treatment works (i.e. it's possible to be on treatment for depression and still care about things and want to fix them - in fact that's kind of the loving point) and also it presumes the free and easy availability of mental health treatment and necessary drugs which, lol. American apathy comes principally, IMO anyway, from a lack of imagination what to do besides capitalism and from a sophisticated propaganda campaign to keep it that way. Definitely not because too many people are going to therapy and therefore don't care about making things better I mean what the actual gently caress. I mean depressed people have less motivation to fix their lives and society. Not more. So it was a dumb, misinformed comment, but like BENGHAZI 2 I don't think it was a deliberate attempt to dissuade people from getting help - that part was accidental (and probably still deserved a probation, but not the dogpile).

Antidepressants, my anti anxiety meds, and my ADD meds help me to be a functioning God drat human being and also not a huge raging rear end in a top hat to my family. Bottom line: get some help. There's likely someone and/or something out there that can help you feel better.

BENGHAZI 2 posted:No he was literally just making fun of the dumb thing evilweasel said that he quoted my god Like if you want to have some great mass of people with class solidarity taking direct action to bash the fash and wrest control of the economy out of the hands of the capitalist class before they get us all killed, then you should want more people getting treatment for depression, not less. And you should want those things - I assume you want those things. I want them, anyway. I mean I get want you're saying but I think it's more about overreaction and dogpiling than YMB actually being right - he wasn't right and it was a dumb post. But he did express a common sentiment so I'm disappointed there wasn't much discussion on why he was wrong. And you may not be aware of this but I'm not generally known for defending evilweasel posts and usually agree with you on most forum drama poo poo or whatever. You're putting me in a very awkward position here.

It's a standard conservative talking point that min wage eliminates jobs cause it forces companies to pay too much for what a job is worth. Since black people struggle with higher unemployment, TPUSA is claiming that if you banned it a bunch of jobs will magic up and help them

FizFashizzle posted:Are they saying that minimum wage keeps black youth from being hired? Because they're not worth it? they're trying to say that if you raise minimum wage, it would most hurt young people and people of color. this isn't really true but that is what they are trying to say, it's a common libertarian argument of fake concern how it comes across is reminding people of the exploitation of black labor and enforcing a status quo of exploitation. "grovel for minwage, black teens, for that is all you are worth" etc.

Teenagers are being pushed out of a job because of the olds refusing/unable to leave the workforce. It has nothing to do with minimum wage. But seriously my first job was working in the kitchen at a McAllister's Deli. We were all highschool kids. I made 6.15 an hour to make potatoes. I went into one the other day in a very wealthy suburb of knoxville and the kitchen crew and front of house were all people in their fifties and sixties

In the continuing saga of PG&E attempts to burn down all of northern California, we have a new entry https://twitter.com/TarynLuna/status/1187511155960336389 But whats that you ask? Didn't PG&E turn off power to 100s of thousands to prevent these kind of issues? And wasn't the area where this fire started in that range? Why yes, it was. They turned off all of the low voltage distribution lines in the area. AND KEPT THE loving HIGH VOLTAGE POWERLINES GOING https://www.sfchronicle.com/california-wildfires/article/PG-E-says-high-voltage-lines-were-still-on-when-14560113.php quote:Hours before the fire broke out east of Geyserville, PG&E had shut off its low-voltage distribution lines in that area as it put nearly 28,000 Sonoma County homes and businesses in the dark in order to prevent its equipment from starting a fire in extreme winds.

Spun Dog posted:Yo, is this the thread where we bitch about lovely posters getting a sixer? I actually went to Amazon to see if this book is real and yes it is. What is quite remarkable is that if you took away the names and the title from the book cover is looks like some loving Dad-porn novel about some old guy boning a young girl. To think that the Peterson's are seen some kind of intellectuals instead of a family of barely hidden incest wanting weirdos blows my mind.

If it weren't for the egregious showing of skin, there's no way you'd be able to convince me that this isn't an Amish Romance novel. quote:After Maria Mast's abusive ex-boyfriend is arrested for being involved in sex trafficking and modern-day slavery, she thinks that she and her son Carter can safely return to her Amish community. But the danger has only just begun. Someone begins stalking her, and they want blood and revenge.Agent Derek Turner of Covert Police Detectives Unit is assigned as her bodyguard and goes with her to her former Amish community in Unity, Maine.The Amish way of life and their solid faith draws Derek in even though he hasn't prayed ever since his wife was murdered.Maria's secretive eyes, painful past, and cautious demeanor intrigue him. As the human trafficking ring begins to target the Amish community, Derek wonders if the distraction of her will cost him his career...and Maria's life.

A meat/protein heavy and low-carb diet puts you at a high risk of developing gout if you're not careful and pay attention. I doubt anyone following a Peterson designed diet (including the Petersons themselves) is doing anything besides shoving as much meat as they can down. Also constipation if you don't get enough fiber. So gout and constipation.
