Reminds me of the book Beyond the Veil of Stars. People travel between worlds by putting their minds into alien species, some of which are quite foreign (e.g. a rodent with multiple bodies), and folks get pretty messed up.

For more context, this is in part the result of a 2021 settlement with the state of Washington over them doing the opposite: https://www.npr.org/2021/09/27/1040968238/greyhound-warrantless-searches-lawsuit-settlement

The settlement only forces this behavior in Washington though, so good on Greyhound for deciding that it is the right policy everywhere.

Strange things are afoot

Ah. They would never do anything good because they’re evil, and they’re evil because they would never do anything good. Logic so airtight not even the tiniest fact can penetrate.

2,300 different charities according to her website. You can see the whole list here: https://yieldgiving.com/gifts/

Well MacKenzie Scott has given away $17 billion of her ~$60 billion over 5 years, so she’s not terrible.

Actual title of the research paper is Elective co-parenting with someone already known versus someone met online: implications for parent and child psychological functioning.

It compares a small sample of two different co-parenting situations, and while it does conclude they are both within “normal range”, it certainly doesn’t make or justify the claim in the headline, which doesn’t even mention co-parenting.

None of these are pardons; they are commutations

Goods Unite Us (https://www.goodsuniteus.com/app/)

They did mention the name, but doesn’t hurt to highlight it.

Disclaimer: This is not an endorsement. I know nothing about the app except that the poster above mentioned it.

This would also have to pass the House, which it would not. I agree with Bernie’s statement and respect his choice to put the resolution forth on principle. I do not respect the article author or commentors who are either ignorant of basic U.S. civics, or choosing to be deliberately deceptive in order to place blame solely on Democrats.

1. The article argues campaigning with Liz Cheney seems to have no effect. Calling it an “electoral fiasco,” especially in the headline, clearly implies that it was detrimental in a significant way.
2. The evidence that the rallies were ineffective is comparing Harris’s results against Biden’s. This is terrible analysis. This should be at least a difference-in-difference comparison (the difference in the change vs Biden, using similar counties that were/weren’t visited). Useful evidence that their analysis actually works would be applying it to strategies they think were positive, and showing the relative improvement there.

An article about how we all need to come together opens with a salvo against all of their allies. Beyond parody

Also, he was suspended in July 2021, so the consequences were pretty quick, and only the final nail in the coffin was delayed.

Is this p-hacking?

Nah, that’s another cut up with very little of the interview

Here is the full interview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=80DaR2CVNNk

Yes, that is precisely what I was attempting to say. Thanks

The problem is there isn’t anything “useful” for understanding humans [in evolutionary psychology]. Yes we can come up with plausible evolutionary justifications for behavior like cooperation, but they are basically untestable and useless for predictions.

Edited to clarify I mean specifically evolutionary psychology.
