There is no safe level of alcohol.
Chris Williamson cited the largest Lancet study ever done on the subject. Every single drink moves you closer to death a little faster. Zero is the only number that doesn’t.
He didn’t pretend people will stop. It’s the same trade-off as eating a cheeseburger, you know it’s not optimal, but it tastes good in the moment, so you do it anyway.
Clear data. Honest cost-benefit. No moralizing.

@steryously @newstart_2024 You sound like a pussy. I’ll be sure to do the opposite of whatever you do.

@1776Avenue @newstart_2024 Thanks, anon
I’m sure you’re a really tough man!

@steryously @newstart_2024 You should look into why your body processes alcohol the same way a 15 year old girl does

@steryously @newstart_2024 Bad sleep and pounding headache from only three glasses of wine?

@steryously @newstart_2024 Maybe it’s just that you’re a pussy

@steryously @newstart_2024 You sound like a loser. For 10,000 years everyones been wrong about alcohol being fun but Alex and these boring fuck health addicts want us all being at our most optimal so we are more productive in work or get to live a couple of years longer in a boring hellscape they've built.

@steryously @newstart_2024 The cope here is hilarious. Mental gymnastics to justify whatever you believe in while ignoring reality, it’s what humans do.

@Polymarket I still don't understand why employers post jobs without pay ranges…
It's similar to listing a house for sale, but not sharing an asking price

JUST IN: Virginia now requires employers to include salary ranges in all job listings.

My point was never that training classes are the end-all be-all. It's that banning guns is a disproportionate response when less restrictive options exist. Training was just one counterexample to an outright ban.
And courts have long held that constitutional rights can be regulated without being abolished: time/place/manner restrictions on speech, permits for assembly, and so on.
To be clear, I'm in favor of citizens being armed, and I practice what I preach there.
English
Thank you.
Speech and assembly can also be harmful - incitement, slander, fraud, rioting, etc. So should the government require a class in order to exercise speech?
Anyone who thinks this is a non sequitur simply doesn’t understand the Bill or Rights and its philosophical premises.

Would I rather have a society with no guns?
Of course.
And when I move to Japan the guns will be locked up at the ranch.
Here in America it won't happen, so the good guys (and gals) should responsibly carry.

@ArthurMacwaters When you say “order of magnitude” instead of “10X”

when you say "underwriting a high degree of variance" instead of "if this doesn't work I'm fired"

@steryously @Jason Because it is a a Constitutional right to own and bear arms. It is against the foundational law of our country. This is nonnegotiable without a Constitutional Amendment.

Everything about sports is exclusionary. Sports are merit-based, category-based, location-based, work-ethic-based, genetics-based, and every other exclusionary category you can think of—especially sex-based!
Jackson Thompson@JackThompsonFOX
Fever coach Stephanie White is asked her stance on males playing in women's sports. "I wouldn't really say that I'm educated enough from a scientific standpoint. I don't ever believe that exclusion is the answer." She then opens up on "frustration" over the debate being tied to the team lately, as they are playing their second game in a row with a rally celebrating Sophie Cunningham's stance for protecting women's sports.
