Except my understanding is Baldwin would be the Hellcat owner in this case. He was the producer and the film hired a company to handle the guns that was known to have issues and be irresponsible. I’m not intimately familiar with the case but from what I remember he was being reckless with that choice and it sounds like he was being reckless with the gun as well.

It’s also not cognitive dissonance

Look around lemmy. You have tons of people saying they don’t like either candidate or their vote doesn’t matter so they won’t vote. Imagine how many people out there are willing to vote for a candidate from a dynasty.

Operative word being: knowingly.

I was gonna say, I don’t think metal has a higher rate of nazis. You look at country and you basically have to accept they’re all MAGAts (another reason to just avoid country). I think most people in metal are pretty progressive, that’s why they’re in metal. Honestly Dero Goi is a great example: he jumped down a conservative rabbit hole and left metal.

If anything, it’s just that the nazis are always a vocal minority and when they’re into metal it’s some confirmation bias for close minded people who don’t like metal.

Exactly. Luckily I’m in a field where true experiments are possible, but I have many colleagues who can’t ethically run true experiments. It’s surveys or nothing for the most part. They have very advanced statistics to account for the lack of control in their research.

What? As a neuroscientist: caffeine is not “technically a drug” it is a drug. And yes, people are absolutely addicted to it. That “craving” you’re talking about is withdrawal and it’s real. Doesn’t matter if “billions*” drink it every day. It’s no mental gymnastics to say that there are millions if not billions of coffee addicts. Addict is not a defined term in the psych/neuro field so I would argue that that many people who would go through withdrawal without it are all addicted.

Wtf does it matter what other drugs are out there? Not everything is a competition. Current dependence on caffeine in our society is absolutely a problem as a result of too much stress and work pressure on everyone. Caffeine is not a cure to that.

Tl;dr: Yes caffeine is objectively a drug and yes very many people are addicted to it.

There’s definitely already stuff like that for Dracula and Frankenstein’s monster.

FYI Durmstrang is from Hungary.

99%, don’t forget about colostomy bags my friend.

MS18 actually. Genuinely the brightest handheld flashlight in the world.

Hell yeah! Implement all the policies that favor the rich!

Seriously though $15 means nothing to the rich and electric cars are not an option for most people yet. As others have said, just make public transit better and cheaper.

This is not the fundental attribution error. The fundamental attribution error is seeing an action from a person and assuming it is a fundamental attribute of them. Literally in the name. E.g. you seem someone being rude in public so you assume they are a rude person. Meanwhile if you are rude in public you chalk it up to being in a bad mood as a result of something that happened to you, not because you are a rude person.

How does this help you at all when buying used? The number of 15 year old cars with maintenance records at all is abysmally small. And usually it’s an enthusiast car that’s not gonna be reliable anyway. Being on top of tire pressure and oil changes is definitely not nearly enough to keep a car maintained for 15 years. It really sounds like you’re not familiar enough with cars and just have a contrived idealistic view of the car market.

It’s because it is. The short version is because it’s socially acceptable for a woman to be somewhat masculine but it’s not socially acceptable for a man to be feminine. A man wearing makeup, a dress, etc. stands out way more than a woman wearing a suit, jeans, etc. It is believed that this results in higher rates of transwomen. Obviously this is an oversimplified explanation, but it’s the gist of it.

And how can you assure it’s well maintained?

Blackbriar are pretty cool.

Lord of the Lost are one of my favorites but are getting bigger especially with Eurovision this year.

Warkings keep slapping.

Earth is great to listen to if you’re trying to read or write and just need to block out other noise. Apparently the guy behind the band was roommates with Curt Cobain.
