@Meaningness I will never forget that @mattparlmer had a plan, physical space, working capital and people to build an N95 fab in Spring 2020, and got stonewalled by FDA.

What commitments are necessary to make the concept of “self-deception” coherent?

few realize the under-developed british palate *enabled* their adaptive radiation into colonial habitats

this darwinian pre-adaptation, latent in the english for millenia, enabled generationally stable behaviors that serve them on a Lamarckian timescale

the white australian's survival is perhaps the strongest argument for Lamarckism

without the Darwinian adaptations of the Aboriginal, lifelong hormetic exposure is needed to survive endemic Australian toxins

Easy to grasp this if you actually visit Europe. Forget the scenic parts of Paris and Berlin for a moment, travel to random towns and villages. Casual observation shows you Europe is much, much poorer than America. twitter.com/JessicaNutt96/stat

Any time a sociologist or psychologist comes up with "stages" & there's more than like two stages, he made it up, it is pretend

We're rolling out booster jabs for young people, but the government is still officially planning on having students return to university in person this Autumn despite the increasing prevalence of the Bongo Bongoland Variant. Here's what we should be doing 🧵👇

I know we've all given up on this, but sort of crazy how the entire world needs to sit on stand-still to get and clean 3-4 months of delta data, in order to make multi-trillion dollar choices, which could be largely avoided with a 2 week challenge trial and 30 volunteers.

They were both kinda cute in the way hippy granola moms can be and the whole package, while unusual and unfortunate, was strangely coherent in its own way. Hippy granola epistemology is an understudied subject.

@PstafarianPrice it's like when researchers train a raccoon that it can trade poker chips for food and then the raccoon washes the poker chips

the Starbucks barista gives me the old “ah, you’re back” and I replied “as a dog returns to its vomit, so fools to their folly” and they got real hung up on the vomit part I could tell

Study on Tucson suggest there is enough rainfall and space to make the city far more food independent than it is now, if the rainwater harvesting is widely implemented and vacant urban land used. Let's rely less on imports in the future! news.arizona.edu/story/neighbo

it’s a widely known secret that nuclear energy is not actually that economically attractive but it is masculine coded and owns the hippies and is therefore an unalloyed good

Without a concrete commitment to honor and enforce due process rights for all students, the Senate must not confirm Catherine Lhamon to lead the Office for Civil Rights at the Department of Education.

Interesting! The *translator* for San Jose’s coach was kicked out of the game with a red card. But the head coach, Matias Almeyda, whose words he was presumably translating, only got a yellow card, not expulsion. 🤔 twitter.com/mls/status/1416589

IF THE TALIBAN TAKES KABUL, THIS LIKLEY DRIVES INCREASED POPPY PRODUCTION.

INCREASED PRODUCTION LIKELY MEANS THE PRICE OF CLEAN HEROIN DROPS RELATIVE TO FENTANYL AND LESS INCENTIVE TO CUT H.

SO DOES THIS MEAN THE TALIBAN IS GOING TO REDUCE THE NUMBER OF U.S. OVERDOSE DEATHS?
