@ScottAdamsSays If I were to hazard a guess, I would say these studies are merely demonstrating a (predictable) correlation between people with high trust in modern medicine and better healthcare outcomes, rather than a causal relationship between the two.
@SydneyLWatson We can talk about them.
By every objective measure, though, however gross any of those individual men are, she is quite literally 1,000× worse.
@canadavsengland@GoldilocksOrbit@DefiantLs It's absolutely wild that you would risk killing someone with HIV without warning them and then blame them for not getting screened when you could have just TOLD THEM.
You don't want to tell them because you know they wouldn't sleep with you if they knew, interesting.
@canadavsengland@GoldilocksOrbit@DefiantLs Sounds like you only read half the question. It doesn't matter how far modern medicine has advanced IF THEY DON'T GET TREATMENT BECAUSE THEY DON'T KNOW YOU GAVE THEM HIV.
@GoldilocksOrbit@DefiantLs And what's the survival rate for someone who doesn't know they have it because they didn't know their partner was a carrier?
@babyswift666 I guess to summarize, for these people, gifting isn't actually about the "thing" in the box, it's about the fact that someone put thought into something they thought you would appreciate- so for them, buying directly off the list cheapens the experience because there's no thought
@babyswift666 Different people have different gifting styles and sometimes this causes things to get lost in translation. Most of the time, people like this would also prefer you didn't shop for them directly off their list and instead got them something that you personally think they'd like.
@ArmandDoma What happens to Afghanistan when all these best and brightest flee to better pastures?
This only serves to magnify human suffering at the macro-level.
@TheCriticalDri2 The female protagonist and extracanonical details are low-hanging fruit, but my friends and I saw this on opening night and had a great time. Honestly the criticism seems vastly overblown.
