  • This lawyer doesn’t post the actual study referenced anywhere in that blog. After looking for the study, it seems to be referencing a quite limited series of tests in a YouTube video made by the Association for the Development of Motorcycling in Romania.

  • Beer is a little tricky to compare with cocktails since beer can range from a little over 1% to 15% and cans are generally the same size. Though at a bar, specialty higher ABV beers do typically come in smaller size glasses.

    Everything else you said seems pretty accurate though. Gotta always watch out for drinking things too fast before you know where your comfort levels are.

  • You overestimate how much power you have in this situation. We don't get to pull the lever. The choices given to us have been approved by the same people who are tying people to the tracks.

    You are either tied up to the track or shoveling coal into the trolly's furnace.

  • Rights are proclaimed and fought for by the marginalized, not gracefully given by our rulers. If you put so much emphasis on which group of tyrants to vote for, you’ll never think “maybe I should become a Stormé DeLarverie and actually make a difference”

  • I feel this. Though I don't tend to be optimistic in general about the state of my little place in the world , it definitely gets worse when I think of the big picture stuff that I have even less control over. I really wish I knew how to help, but I guess all I can do is relate and hope that you're doing okay. At the risk of sounding insincere and acting weirdly intimate to a stranger online, we might never see each other in our lives, but we are fighting and suffering a reality that was forced upon us together. Hopefully things get better, but even if it doesn't, we aren't alone in this.

  • The weird incongruous part is that the people on Rednote (up until recently) thought the average American has over a million dollars (due to a weird mistranslation of something our embassy said about the average income from all Americans being over a million dollars), have a house (due to television shows), have free healthcare, and generally live a carefree life. Many people are questioning why there's been such a push to work over here by their friends and family who visit.

  • Arguably more successful is Abraham Lincoln. Though, it might be more accurate to say that the newly formed Republican party didn't kill the Whig party; rather the Whig party killed itself due to not listening to their constituents (which seems pretty relevant to our current situation)

  • If the voters are too apathetic to what the DNC is offering, the thought of abandoning them for something that is much more popular isn't a contradictory prospect. Having an enthusiasm problem so big that trump was able to be elected twice kinda points to the fact that people want something else.

  • Choosing current republicans and current democrats is choosing the weapon to be used against you and especially against minorities. Both parties choose to uphold a system that relies on "winners" and "losers" to exist, which makes both of them willing to use minorities as a cost of maintaining profits and systemic power. Why is it acceptable to think it is better to choose the less lethal weapon instead of doing literally anything else to try to prevent all this systemic violence?

  • So democrats should adopt even more conservative views to avoid attack ads? Maybe they should focus on what the democratic base wants rather than the opinions of people who would never vote democrat.
