The same cognitive dissonance that allows them to both act on, and excuse instances of molestation in their community/family, is the very same driver of their wanton disregard of the people harmed by republican policies. They see any instances of pedophilia in their ranks as “just a bad apple,” while they identify an entire race of people as rapists if a single news report shows a member of that race/minority group committing such an act. It’s entirely predicated on their belief that they are superior, and it is because of something inherent within them, that does not exist in others. They judge themselves not by their actions (and consequences of said actions) but by their intentions, while they have no such qualms demonizing any number of minority groups for the actions of a single member.

so, short answer, yes.

Long answer, yessssssssssssssssssssssssssss.

this is the first study to consistently map brain changes during pregnancy, write the study authors in their paper.

“It’s 2024 and this is the first glimpse we have of this fascinating neurological transition. There is so much about the neurobiology of pregnancy we don’t understand yet. It’s a biproduct of the fact that biosciences have historically ignored women’s health,” said Jacobs.

I knew that there were fundamental neurological changes that occurred during pregnancy, but had no idea that there hadn’t been a comprehensive brain mapping study done yet. There is a surprising amount of sexism in academia.

because women approach him and treat THEMSELVES as sex objects

That’s some A+ victim blaming right there. E. Jean Carroll didn’t do shit

That’s a nice thing your mom did, and your tattoo is a great reminder that however bad we’re feeling in the moment, that “this too, shall pass.”

What’s the tattoo? I’m glad you were able to yeet that fucker out of ya 😅

Why does it need to be equal to population?

Because I was responding to the previous commenter that cited specifically those numbers.

I get what you’re saying, that other cultures are not as tolerant, and when said culture pops up in a previously tolerant area, it can cause tensions. To that I’d say that we have a system of government enforcing laws in a uniform manner across a region precisely because not everyone agrees uniformly. You can’t strip away the freedom to be wrong, you can only enforce rules that support equity, safety, and inclusion, and do so especially within local populations that seem to eschew it.

But also, not all migrants are intolerant. So assuming that they 1. are, and 2. will stay that way, is a xenophobic dog whistle.

are European countries regularly taking in migrant populations equal to their countries population?

my bong has a bunch of crevices/nooks that get gunked up with resin n’ such. Put in some salt, a healthy splash of alcohol, and shake it up! you’ll be surprised how much that gets.

Sounds like an awful slippery slope 🙄

Well good thing we’re not taking in 330 million immigrants all at once then, so this will never be a problem.

That money comes from taxes that rise with increased economic activity that rise with the population.

It’s a racist lie that increased immigration leads to increased crime.

Thank goodness we increased police budgets, that’ll solve the problem for sure!

the article you didn’t read goes into that, and ultra marathons show parity between the sexes.

By your logic, ultra-marathons are an even greater test of endurance. And women compete at parity with men (if not better) in those events.

Of course, this match against the academy team was very informal and should not be a major cause for alarm. The U.S. surely wasn’t going all out, with the main goal being to get some minutes on the pitch, build chemistry when it comes to moving the ball around, improve defensive shape and get ready for Russia.

Your anecdotal evidence is countered in the very article you posted

Not telling the prisoners their date of execution seems unreasonably cruel, especially considering that some inmates have been subsequently released/exonerated. Their reasoning of “not causing the inmate undue stress” is just incorrect, while the idea that “their victims didn’t have prior warning” is steeped in a thirst for revenge and retribution, rather than justice. That’s some Code of Hammurabi level thinking that only retards social progress.

I noticed this too, The Expanse does that so well, really fleshing out what life would be like living as a grunt in The Belt. They had their own culture, their own sayings, their own food. Like any colony, it gave host to any number of establishments meant to provide a bit of comfort out in the inky black nothing. The shared suffering also gave them a sense of community, which is a powerful motivator when the far off motherland starts imposing increasingly burdensome levies… Makes you want to grab the closest thing and hurl it at them! 😉

WATCH THE EXPANSE

It’s amazing.

The Witch and Bone Tomahawk are absolute classics. now I guess I’ll have to watch your other recommendations

My ex-wife had a real discomfort in being in pictures, so I get it.

Not wanting to give out your number to a random man? yeah, don’t need prior experience with anything to know how disconcerting that would be.

How you treat your patients is a personal thing. Some people take an approach that’s very personable, in which they probably wouldn’t see the harm in being taken out to a meal by their happy patient. Your approach is more professional, in which you’re there to care for them, and leave. That’s the way that helps you maintain your emotional well-being, being able to leave work at work. So in the future, I’d frame it in that way. You may acquiesce to taking a picture every so often, but when it comes to anything further, I’d tell them that you keep your professional and private life separate, and thank them for thinking of you.
