Surely nobody is actually stupid enough to take the known maximum of a random half of a dataset and compare it to the known minimum of the other half to establish a trend.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steven_Milloy By "junk science" he means "climate science," and he is completely serious. Also, according to that wikipedia article, he opposes the second-hand-smoke-cancer link (he is evidently directly paid to do so by tobacco companies), wants to abolish the Surgeon General, and is pro DDT and asbestos. He's a grifter. He no doubt knows exactly how stupid that graph is. But he gets paid the big bux to lie to conservative americans.

Are those gears or viruses? They’re not touching, regardless, so they can all spin freely I think.

I think the yellow gear mostly can, though it might be close enough to the blue to get clinked once per tooth, but the other three look like they spin properly, and the blue and green aren't close enough to affect each other so they should influence each other somewhat. So I guess the point is that social forces aren't relevant to SARS spread, although tbh it's been a long day and this metaphor isn't really working for me. What's the motive force? Time and the inevitability of death? At any rate. Whatever this engine is I bet it rattles loud as gently caress.

Lol I think they're not labels of the gears, but rather different factors and where they map in the 4-plex based on the labels given in the boxes; poor social support is a combo of social and psychological factors etc is that trying to say long covid is a syndrome?

DontMockMySmock posted:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steven_Milloy There's a similar group, CO2Science that runs the same kind of grift: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Center_for_the_Study_of_Carbon_Dioxide_and_Global_Change They were an important part of my political development because they used to have a thing on their website where every day they'd show real data from a weather station and that showed a cooling trend over time. The tool was interactive and you could pick any weather station in the US. I played around a little with the tool and found that there were a lot of stations where the trend was upwards instead. I ended up making a map of every weather station, and color coding based on whether the trend was up, down or neutral. At the end, it was clear that some areas of the country were getting cooler, but most was getting hotter. By looking at the data directly, it was pretty obvious that something was up, and even though some areas were getting cooler, there was definitely some kind of thing happening. And after that, when I'd see the daily chart only showing cooling areas, I knew that these guys were being dishonest, and I think that was a good lesson to learn early.

Obviously the best dogs are corgis, on account of being able to produce smaller corgi versions of any other dog given the slightest opportunity

The domestic shorthair cat is the fifth best dog.

I like how huskies are high on their rating, but if you don't have the time or ability to give them a lot of exercise they'll tear your house up.
