Interesting. I assume you mean drugs as in psychoactive substances and not medication in general, right? I’d like to read up on this, do you have any sources? Particularily for these two bits:

Long term use increases anxiety and subsequently makes individuals even more dependent on the drug.

All drugs inevitably make whatever problem they treat, worse.

Also, taking massive doses of iron supplements (or dark greens) helps a lot.

Because of the constipation?

A teacher I know says it is easy to determine if a student wrote their paper if you interview them about it. You’re right that automated methods are risky.

Exploiting your kids for views. Though it was funny if I ignore that.

Well, he she has and therefore there’s no place for him her in it.

Another example are the birth giving refugees.

Admittedly I don’t watch the news, but I’ve never heard of this. When I’ve heard about problems in birth care (or health care in general, really), it’s mainly the effects of cutting funding: Shutdowns of clinics in rural parts, especially in the north, leading to long distances to care; Not enough beds for the demand; Trouble with finding staff for the summer. It sounds short-sighted to me to blame refugees for a problem that’s been brewing for decades.

The boobsocks are rather egregious in this one.

Since you invoke science, can you provide sources for the claim that Lemmy is better than taking a break? Or is it based on your personal experience?

I have never heard of this effect before - is there a name for it?

I doubt you’d get votes from the right, they fear socialism and other left-wing policy much more than they fear the Democrats.

The URL made me skeptical, but that was an excellent read - thanks for sharing.

Sounds like popping bubble wrap, or popcorn.

Edit: According to Wikipedia, the final stance now is that the wound was caused by a stray bullet.

No link provided, so I looked it up. It’s in the article Attempted assassination of Donald Trump in Pennsylvania, under Shooting (pretty deep in there though):

The upper part of Trump’s right ear was grazed by the first bullet Crooks fired.^{[99][100][101]}

Jesus, that poster! I was sure the black woman was drawn by Rob Liefeld, but wrong decade I guess

You really should have a last “don’t” at the beginning of point c.

He should not be holding a sermon in the first place.

I agree.

That is the main issue.

I guess?

It is rather inconsequential if the goobledegook he says differs from regular sermon goobledegook.

No, I don’t think so. It matters whether he is sincere or just a grifter.

“I shouldn’t have to tell you about my expertise for you to find my input valuable!” Weird hill to die on, but okay

I think the issue was mixing in non-bible material, without disclosing it, during a sermon.

It’s ridiculous, it literally looks like an AI was asked to Chad-ify Trump.

Edit: Spelling

Thanks for attempting to explain it.

You seem to have gotten Gemini and Claude mixed up? Your previous comment only mentioned Gemini.

Bolding mine:

If the article mentioned a “bullet that killed Charlie Kirk,” it is likely referring to a viral piece of misinformation or a specific satirical news story. Charlie Kirk is alive; therefore, any article claiming he was killed by a bullet is either: Satire: (e.g., The Onion or The Babylon Bee style content). Misinformation: A hoax designed to trigger a reaction.

Um, does Gemini not know that Charlie Kirk is dead?? (Yes I know AI doesn’t really “know” things)
