DO NOT READ THE REPLIES, in which flocks of people choose to double down on the "correlation = causation" fallacy rather than admit they don't know shit
Since "obesity" is trending I want to remind you that the "obesity epidemic" isn't real.
1. Body size doesn't correlate with morbidity for the vast majority of people.
2. Many of the health conditions associated with body size are more related to discrimination than physiology.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Claim 2 is misleading. Health conditions related to obesity include high blood pressure, diabetes, osteoarthritis, and others. There is no relationship between these conditions and discrimination.

Indeed the whole reason we protest police violence is that cops DO NOT HAVE THE RIGHT TO ASSASSINATE YOU no matter how much of an asshole you are or aren't.
My dude you are allowed to dislike certain flavors, I personally hate cinnamon, but (a) the cuisines of India don't care about your feelings & (b) you still seem to think that "Indian food" is all one thing and that it, rather than your racism & colonial mindset, is the problem.
This quoted post is unavailable.
Dammit, I take one 4-hour nap and wake up to find a WaPo pundit has accused Indian cuisine (WHICH ONE?) of being "insanely based on a single spice" (WHICH ONE? "Curry" apparently🤦♀️)
You people are worse than toddlers, I can't leave you unsupervised for a single moment!!

OMC's smash hit 'How Bizarre' went to No. 1 on the US chart on this day in 1997, 2 weeks into a 2-month tour. It made the Top 10 in 15 countries & reached No.1 in many other territories including Austria, Canada & Ireland. The OMC story by Nick Bollinger: audioculture.co.nz/people/om…

I was meant to be just finding an email contact for Country Calendar but instead got distracted by an episode about Swiss Valais Blacknose sheep.
Lockdown makes staying on task really hard, I am all ohh look shiny things ( and cute sheep )

Just your occasional reminder that even the most backward parts of the US are way more vaccinated per capita than NZ is currently. This is what happens without strong public health measures (lockdown/distancing/masking) in place to back up vaccination.
The United States is now reporting 147,550 new coronavirus cases per day, the highest seven-day average since January 31, according to data from
@CNN and Johns Hopkins University.

As someone who's very competitive, I'm excited for Seymour's proposed changes to the COVID Tracer app.
Finally an incentive to get out there and catch 'em* all!
