    I don’t really know which journals are good/bad beyond the big names ones, nature, plos, elsevier, etc.

    You won’t be banned for posting journal links. The only time that would happen was if it happened continuously and had a pattern and multiple reports. I don’t think there has ever been a permanent ban here.

    Id recommend looking up your topic in a big name journal just to play it safe. Better science, less misinformation.

    I’d like to build/find a list of the best journals to add to the sidebar.

    I completely agree.

    I liked askhistorians, as I felt like the moderation added to the quality a lot, but /r/science never seemed to achieve that level of quality. Though when they did start with the heavy moderation/clear rules with tags (I think flair was a later addition) it was a marked improvement off what it was before.

    I’m open to suggestions, and I’ll just leave the draft rules up for awhile to get feedback.




  • You’re likely eligible for your states Medicare subsidies. Democrats fixed the family glitch in 2022, so you’ll likely save thousands switching off your employer plan, even if you’re making low six figures.

    Of course those subsidies expire in 2025, and there is a snowballs chance in hell of those getting renewed now.

    Democrats did a lot of things to improve the lives of working class, at least as much as they could get pass the Republican house.

    Their problem is messaging. They are terrible at communicating what they’re doing, and how it’s going to help. I mean part of that problem is the media (ie fox news) is allowed to lie and Dems try to tell the truth. The playing field is not really level.









  • Yes! Donald Trump is the mathematic equivalent of the absolute symbol. example: |-99| + |-594| = 693

    A negative story is coverage, makes the left talk about him which riles up the right to fight back and vote because they feel oppressed. The right doesn’t live in reality, so as long as they know Trump is being talked about that makes him their guy.

    I realized this very quickly in 2017 that people were falling for the trap. I have no idea why anyone upvotes anything with Trump in it.
