Most people start retaining more concrete memories around three. It’s when we develop object permanence iirc

Fuck, am I!?
Which is why we’re also seeing entire maternity wards shut down. Doctors can’t provide care without risking being jailed or being sued for malpractice, so they just won’t practice at all.
Imagine telling women who have experienced extreme violence that your solution for them is further violence. I cannot own a gun for my mental health. We can protect everyone by working to prevent violence.
I was reinforcing the request. I did a couple general prompts with your claim and think there’s some research to support it, though it’s not much; and, as with anything, there’s nuance.
Well hey, good news! She wants to raise the minimum wage, too. But I see that as a side step, as well. Stronger worker/union rights overall would be ideal.
That and workers rights, please. And education. And childcare. And general healthcare.
We have some in the Midwest as well
In this service gig economy, the $50k is absolutely huge. How many can use that to start up serious independent social media channels? Don’t mind me over here day dreaming. That’s a good year salary to try to generate income, and if successful can create more jobs by hiring extra help for editing, management, etc. Think of it like a drop in the bucket with what Putin was willing to pay propagandists per episode.
Also, $35k sounds like a good down payment in most states
Total tangent here, but I have a lot of cognitive dissonance around Butker. I mean I call him Butt Kicker. He’s an amazing athlete but has gross political ideas and power.
What’s dumber, I was upset to hear Brittany Mahomes passively endorsed Project 2025. I wasn’t terribly surprised that’s her stance, but seeing her confirm it and quickly backtrack with petty bullshit just. Ugh. Meanwhile, our other star players Kelce and Mahomes are keeping their mouths shut as Swift is taking heat. Idfk. Just a bunch of drama that makes me feel like I’m back in high school, but the stakes are much, much higher.
One of my favorite pass times is asking ChatGPT my hypotheses with prompts to search the web for academic sources (the free version is limited, but it works for a good few prompts over a few hours and let’s you know when the cool down period is over).
Any time we make claims, it’s very likely at this stage of human technology that there’s research on it you can access and hone ideas around. Anecdotes can be really powerful in driving our interests and pursuit of knowledge, but I think we should always check in and be aware we’re biased, fallible, sometimes hypocritical creatures.
Wait what? I can’t tell if you’re serious, but if so, I’d love to see research on the first part of your comment. If you were joking please feel free to ignore me.
“If you listen to her, you’re stupid and shouldn’t vote” is my favorite emotionally abusive narrative.
Fuck these creeps. To anyone that felt inspired by Swift, you deserve to feel empowered.
There’s some truth in this, but I think we should be mindful of nuance. Some parents do need to make decisions for medical reasons. Those reasons are often still exaggerated, and many parents aren’t making an informed decision. I’ve had friends that required the procedure after puberty, but I’m pretty sure they’ve said there was no way they could have known prior to puberty anyway. I don’t know anyone that needed it as a baby, but it can happen when obstructions develop in utero.
Well, no one is forcing transitions, but we do and should continue to provide necessary medical care for prisoners. Arguably that care needs improvement in terms of accessibility for citizens and immigrants alike, which I think is where Trump pointed out Harris has truthfully put some work into.
That’s what sucks about so many of these claims. Are they based on any truth?
I will say, it’s at least a good exercise in critical thinking to have to go claim by claim, as exhausting as it is to so consistently find blatant lies, let alone half-truths.
I heard recently that tiktok has open sourcing but don’t fully understand what that means or if it’s true. If it’s true, though, it would be notable that it’s the only platform that’s been targeted to be shut down.
My mom fully believes this shit for some reason. She believes mothers carry to 9 months and just abort out of inconvenience, and that doctors don’t work to keep the fetus alive out of the womb if possible. She shares pictures with descriptions of the procedures with zero sources beyond Christian crisis pregnancy centers. Or just Christians.
And she wonders why I started exhibiting signs of PTSD before I was even six.
I’m pretty sure Hitler or Mussolini popularized the term (Hitlers translation was closer to "lying press) originally to discredit journalists, socialists, scientists… Etc. Trump has been reported to have Mein Kampf on his bedside table, but I need to actually read it myself to confirm how much of his playbook comes from it. He for sure targets vulnerable, innocent groups (immigrants, women, LGBTQ, etc.). He eroded public infrastructure, attempting to privatize it where he could.
I have memories of my parents telling their memories describing pretty heavy neglect when I was 0-3. I have a lot of vivid memories of abuse beyond that point, and it’s like therapy and education just bring up more. I dunno what else to do with my life but obsess over how to help prevent it for future generations however possible
