Also in the latest GSS data: cat owners report less happiness than dog owners and people with no pets at all.
As the owner of three cats I can't decide whether I want to insist there's a hidden variable at work here or say that in this case, correlation does indeed equal causation
"Dog owners were happier than cat owners, which can be partially explained by personality, emotion regulation style, and need satisfaction." osf.io/6vzrm/

Stunning chart: the share of men under 30 who aren't having sex has nearly tripled in the past decade washingtonpost.com/business/2019/…
Those numbers are helping drive a big shift in American sex-having habits: the number not getting laid is at a record high. Conversely, the number reporting sex weekly or more is on the decline. washingtonpost.com/business/2019/…
Glad you asked!
1. Young male labor force participation has fallen. Less work = less relationships = less sex
2. Alongside that, men in that age group are more likely than women to live with their parents which presents... obvious barriers to having sex.

Democratic lawmakers in swing districts are distancing themselves from $15 minimum wage proposals. But a new poll finds voters in those districts support a $15 minimum wage by a 30-point margin. washingtonpost.com/us-policy/2019…
In the 57 districts a Democrat won by less than 15 points in 2018, @BobbyScott's Raise the Wage Act is supported by...
89% of likely Democratic voters
46% of likely GOP voters
65% of likely voters overall
washingtonpost.com/us-policy/2019…
Voters in those districts say a lawmaker voting for the act would be more likely to get their support: 37% said a vote for the Raise the Wage Act would make them more likely to support the lawmaker, compared to 21% who said it would make them less likely.

What a hilariously weird way to frame this. wsj.com/articles/whos-…
"Despite their love of stroopwafels,"
"Despite their invention of hygge,"
"Despite the number of tulips per capita,"
"Despite the heritage of director Paul Verhoeven,"
oh man. Drag me, I deserve it:

1/ The SEC this morning took one paragraph to demolish 8 pages of sound & fury from Musk's sur-reply. Let's quickly review where things stand.
2/ The Court gave the parties until March 26 to request an evidentiary hearing. In its reply brief, the SEC has said, "No, thanks", and now, after reviewing Musk's sur-reply, it says, "Still No". Unless, that is, the Court is curious about Musk's negotiating history evidence.
3/ I'm guessing the Court will not be curious. So, the SEC will not be invited to file a sur-sur-reply. The briefing wars are over. It's now up to Musk & counsel to decide whether they want an evidentiary hearing.

First, the only downside to this movement is that some of the followers automatically call people shills or spread ridiculous "proofs". It makes you look insane. Stick to what you already have and stick to what you already know. You're also on the same team as the people who
don't care for this/are not into this/think it's 'fake' etc. None of that matters. And you shouldn't get emotional about it. The truth is - some people out there keep guidance, some are not as smart as you, some are lost, some need an igniter etc. Especially in other countries.
This movement made researching interesting again, for a large chunk of the population. A big point in all of this was a reminder as to what power we hold over the mainstream misleadia complex and all their propaganda arms. Nothing wrong with this. Read or don't read. Simple.

CW: suicide

Tomorrow is #BellLetsTalk Day, but I've got a bit of time so I'm going to share my story now.

Last week, a colleague phoned 911 because I disclosed that I was struggling with suicidal ideation. This is not a safe or helpful action for marginalized folks in crisis.
After I posted on Facebook about what had happened, a friend reached out and asked what you *should* do if you know someone in crisis, if not phone 911?

So let's break this down a bit.
What happened to me last week highlighted the fact that there's a mismatch between how people living on the margins of society experience civil authorities, versus how people living more normative lives experience them.

So, I've waded through the Evangelical Alliance's new pastoral "guidelines" for interacting with trans people (ughh, the things I do to expose #transphobic #ciswits to the world), and let's just say it's time to tear this particular sh*t-bag a new hole.

So, straight off the bat, first page of text, the use of #language is . . . well, yeah, see for yourself:

"It is important to remember that transgender is not simply an issue to be debated;" - p5, #Transformed

*sigh*

When such language gets reinforced by insisting...

There's a big difference in philosophy between progressives and 'liberals'. Liberals prefer to 'resist'. That only means fighting against something 'aka' push back. As progressives, we prefer to #Insist. That means we are actually fighting for something
Because of that, liberals are always short on policy. They care more about fighting the policies of others, usually half witted. Progressives want actual change: a true move of the Overton Window back to the left. Policies that #insist we have a better world.
As we come close to election day, liberals will fight against some of the GOP's horrible policies. But they won't fight to create better ones than we have now. Progressives will always #insist that the world MUST CHANGE!
