  • Minnesota voters didn't vote for him.

    Minneapolis party delegates voted. But we'll never know how many voted for him, because 20% of the votes were left uncounted.

    If this were any other election, there would be a unified call for a redo.

  • Humans also don't generally eat poison. But the mice in this study were poisoned with DSS after eating meat. Maybe meat is not the real culprit here...

  • In the animal study, mice were fed three types of red meat – pork, beef and mutton – every day for two weeks. Then, the researchers triggered colitis (a model for IBD) using a chemical called dextran sulfate sodium (DSS).

    They definitely aren't evolved to eat dextran sulfate sodium.

  • Like saying goodbye to a crazy neighbor you know.

  • What would a better result be?

    Redo the vote properly, and this time actually count all the ballots.

  • To each their own.

    Personally, I don't mind sitting outside in the sun. It's a good place to have a beer.

  • You can get the RDA of vitamin D from a healthy diet, without need for sunlight.

    Weight gain is caused by diet and lack of exercise, not lack of sunlight.

    SAD can be treated with non-carcinogenic lamps.

  • What deleterious health effects from not getting sun exposure?

  • Most outdoor activities are avoidable. Avoiding those activities entirely is safer than wearing protection.

  • You could certainly try to keep your sunlight exposure to a bare minimum.

    Or you can just weigh the inherent risks of doing things you enjoy.

  • There's no "safe" level of sunlight, even if you wear sunscreen.

  • Sunlight is also a carcinogen, but that doesn't mean you always stay indoors.

  • Voters are most concerned about price stability, aka inflation.

    Prices were stable when Biden left office. They aren't any more.

  • Cost is not the same thing as inflation. When inflation is low, costs are stable.

    Costs of consumer goods, which voters are most concerned about, were stable when Biden left office.

  • If inflation is below 3%, there is no reason to lower it further. In fact it's harmful to try, because it would require austerity measures that increase unemployment. So once it reaches that point, it is indeed fixed.

  • Someone asked why they were in office. The reason is that they put in the effort to run, when most people wouldn't bother. Not to make sacrifices in the name of fighting fascism, when most people wouldn't.

  • If you aren't willing to make sacrifices, don't expect others to do so. That's not a political view.

  • They did. They reduced CPI below 3%, which means they fixed inflation.

    That doesn't mean they solved everyone's problems. But they fixed what Democrats consider the biggest problem.

  • As I said, the top concern among Democrats is inflation. Not ending capitalism.
