People say parents have to parent, society won't. Then when people say they'll put rules on the internet people say "damn that's crazy you're gonna do that?". Sometimes I feel as though much of society doesn&#x

Does it? I never heard of them before and I still haven't. I do know these lulzcow sites have been around for decades and honestly there are even some 'snark' subreddits that are beginning to amount to the same thing. Pure vi

Isn't that what paparazzi do every day? I hate the behavior but it's not like we haven't allowed it as a society for a long time.

How do you even define intent when Facebook knows this stuff is happening but doesn't do anything? Intent is hardly relevant when they are aware of consequences of their behavior and still don't change. Don't know intend for

But super processed fake meats are way worse for the environment than bean burritos?

Same for the autistic and mentally ill. I'd like to just roll the dice until I get one that'll be easy to raise. And in much of the world girls are indeed much harder to raise

Yes the point being this precedent can be used to hurt minority groups in the future even if it's for the sake of helping a minority group right now

Makes sense. I wouldn't wish autism on anyone, knowing how much suffering it causes me. It's reasonable then to abort fetuses with signs of autism right? Mental illness is terrible too.

How would you get opioids if you actually wanted to? Weed you can ask around on the street and eventually you'll find someone. Are you gonna break your arm to get a script? Doctors don't prescribe that so liberally anymore, they h

This is a little known problem now. But it's big in the chronic pain community. Doctors hesitate to prescribe opiates now because of the consensus of the public in threads like these. But there are people with very bad chronic pain who

Everyone is different, and no drug is for everyone. Caffeine gives me migraines

MDMA is indeed neurotoxic though, and should be used responsibly. Just because people were puritanical about drugs doesn't mean we need to go in the total opposite direction

This is neat. Honestly though.. they're not very good. They're rather all rather generic and many of them aren't illustrating the verse very clearly. It makes sense-- DALLE prompts tend to be very specific and it looks like f

Exactly. Another important question is-- how often will this change? These kinds of regulations can also provide a 'moat' for larger companies by keeping smaller companies out, leading to monopolization.

People keep trying to read into this as a reflection of the art world, but it was only a State Fair art contest. It's kind of interesting but no surprise that it doesn't have the most rigorous entry process. They probably based th

It's a meme. But that aside, two groups can both do bad things.

Deactivating parts of the immune system wouldn't be simpler than giving receptor blockers. Everything in the body is connected to one another, and whatever circulating immune signaling proteins are involved could have numerous other ef

I'm sure. But it's data we don't even have right now. We don't even know every chemical that naturally occurs in the body, how are we supposed to predict how they could interact with novel chemicals? Some day, though, it

That was the State Fair fine arts competition.. I wouldn't exactly say you're about to fool the MOMA

Awesome, thanks a lot!

It really is a great phrase. I think there's some truth to it. As someone who can be very articulate at times, the influence it lends me isn't always commensurate with my actual skill in that area. Put another way; I've found

>The world may be a different place, etc. It's all about the now. And that new world could be dominated by a new technology. Truth is that yes, with enough resources they can catch up technologically as many nations have in the past

Sad. I wonder how many of these stories have went on behind the scenes without anyone coming out about it

Ah I see what you mean now, that does make sense.

Yeah what can kill cancer cells in a petri dish and what can be used as chemo are two categories that hardly overlap. But it's still a good first step though. Maybe something will come of it

Basically. At most they'll add a time release mechanism to release them at certain rates. Well if it works, it works
