Hundreds of academics call for 100% plant-based meals at UK universities
  • At least you admitted your biases. Unfortunately I just dont have the same confidence you have that you really have your finger on the average college students pulse. And in the end the point you made was extremely trivial: sometimes kids say one thing and do another.

  • Senior HHS official calls to move marijuana to lower-risk drug category
  • As a heavy smoker, the description or schedule 3 as you wrote it seems to fit.

    Marijuana does cause minor physical withdrawal, as evident by the plethora of physical effects that occur when a heavy smoker stops. I would say the mental side of it is more prominent though and is what many struggle with when trying to quit smoking

  • 6.5% Covid patients died within a year of hospital discharge: study
  • Statistics dont apply to individuals in that way. You are not an average, you will have a 100% chance of whatever outcome actually happens and it will be because of specific things in your life.

    You would only be worried if you personally fit the average type of person that this study looked at but thats verybunlikely, and if it was true for you it would necessarily be untrue for many others.

  • Now Reddit sell NFT-like stuff
  • I didn't know about this either. I still cant believe people fall for that nonsense.

    I guess I did buy a bunch of skins in rocket league, is that any different than an nft? I just really like how the cars look lol

  • How do you deal with bad cyclic burnout?
  • This might not apply to you but its worth a shot.

    IMO we as humans were never supposed to get immense motivation BEFORE an action. Its supposed to come after you see the results of your work.

    That said, you keep coming up with excuses you cant create:

    1. Too tired
    2. Ideas aren't good enough
    3. Not in the right mindset
    4. What I make won't look good anyways

    You need to alter your perspective because that is what is holding you back. You could draw despite all of those reasons above, but you CHOOSE not to.

    I don't want to make it like a pull yourself up by your boot straps thing, I only say its a choice you are making so hopefully you will realize that you could just choose to draw.

    Even if what you create is devoid of creativity, is unoriginal, does not represent you, and just plain looks bad, its still better to have created something and throw it away than to have created nothing.

    Also any strong emotion can result in beautiful art, whether its a positive emotion or negative. Most people just want to see emotional honesty in art. Nothing wrong with how you feel, other than you preferring feeling a different way at the time.

  • The Coup of /r/AssholeDesign
  • They took a principled stance it's no surprise they wouldn't break it without good reason.

    And they did redirect people to Lemmy as best they could. I'm actually shocked reddit let them send those DMs with the Lemmy community in it.

  • The Coup of /r/AssholeDesign
  • Oh sorry I guess you own it then right? Poor baby lost his community so sad. You literally only think as far as "I don't like it so it's bad". Besides the fact the post shows they were still giving people access to the community the whole fucking time you ass-clown.

    I know for a fact you read the first part of this and said "I know exactly what this is about" and show down to the comment section to post a bunch of bullshit.

    So why do you think you are owed reddit communities again?

  • The rich pressuring the poor to donate money
  • Yeah unfortunately the time and place it happened can change the legalities tremendously, but in general right now it appears that at least the type mentioned in the OP is in fact a donation from the customer directly to the charity. The business who is acting as a middleman will not have the donation affect their books, and the customer can keep these receipts so they can claim the donation on their own taxes.

    Even if you don't itemize your deductions, you can still claim up to 300$ in donations.
    Edit: Apparently this was a temporary thing with the CARES act for 2020 and 2021 and is no longer active.

  • Respectability politics are absurd on their face
  • Only issue I have is with the last part. Everyone should leave open the possibility there is something they could find out that would change their mind. Your argument boils down to "I probably know everything already, so I'm never changing my mind".
