I also remember at least some scientists at the time arguing that climate change was a better term because people are particularly stupid about the term global warming when it paradoxically results in some places having a greater number of and more extreme cold events.

That's how I recall the term climate change coming into favor, too.

Republicans haven't been the party of Lincoln since the Southern Stratgey.

All it's going to take is Dem voters to actually fucking show up. Harris and Biden both received more votes in Texas then did Abbott in his elections. We only had 45% turnout in 2022.

This would be correct for a locality where you are required to keep left on bidirectional roads.

This is how it works on BlueSky. And you can detach your original post from someone else's quote post of it after-the-fact.

more like monetizing the Dunning Kruger effect.

Over 200 people died in winter storm Uri, we had the Uvakde shooting, and then 2022 had insanely low turnout (like 45%) and the Republicans held onto control at all levels in the state. This is another absolutely tragic loss of life, but I'd be surprised if it impacts their votes (Abbott won Uvalde county).

I'm just hit the god damn stop/cancel button if you want to stop it before the timer reaches zero.

What are some Android tablet brands in the USA other than Google, Lenovo, and Samsung? I'm looking for a #5G tablet in the sub-$300 range and it's seeming like there's one Samsung, or several hundred random Chinese Amazon sellers that don't even have a brand name on the product listing.

Appropriate for the times.

 

Hogg has nudged Democrats to become less judgmental and more forceful in their messaging as the party dithers over what direction to take under the second Trump administration.

“It’s time we stop surrendering, go on offense, and take the fight to Donald Trump,” he added on X. “We need to show [the public] who we are again, to rid our party of its judgmental attitudes, and do the work to win back every group we lost this year.”

Hogg notched around 215 votes, and Pennsylvania state Rep. Malcolm Kenyatta scored 298 votes, above the 205 threshold. Artie Blanco from Nevada nabbed the third vice chair role during the third round of voting.

 

I go to https://lemmy.world/communities and there's like 20 sorting options, half of them being Top and name isn't an option. What's up with that?

 

The study, conducted by Dr Demid Getik, explores how mental health is related to income make-up within couples by examining the link between annual income rises for women and the number of clinical mental health diagnoses over a set period of time.

The study finds that as more women take on the breadwinner role in the household, the number of mental health related incidences also increases.

As wives begin earning more than their husbands, the probability of receiving a mental health diagnosis increases by as much as 8% for all those observed in the study, but by as much as 11% for the men.

 

Lately when I forced to login to FaceBook they will sent a WhatsApp message to my phone number, even though I don't use WhatsApp. I'd like to see if there is really an account with my number. I tried going to the web client but it seems to be requiring to pair with a device app.

 

Just venting here. It's a very low traffic community for a sports team, with announcements from that team's own website posted to the community. And people have to come in and vote it down. 😐

Up to one in four patients who are unresponsive after suffering serious brain injuries might actually still be conscious – indicating more patients may be aware of their surroundings than previously realized, new research suggests.

This state of 'hidden consciousness' is now officially known as cognitive motor dissociation (CMD), where cognitive (or thinking) abilities aren't connected to motor (or movement) abilities. Researchers have been looking into CMD for several years.

However, 62 percent of an additional 112 patients who were visibly responding to instructions at the bedside didn't exhibit the expected brain signals showing responsiveness – so the researchers suggest their methods still don't detect everyone with cognitive function.

 

I just created this post. It has a big table in the post body, but if I'm logged in I can't see the table contents. Incognito window shows same behavior (logged out I can see the contents, logged in I can't). I am also able to see the contents if I'm logged in with photon client here.

 

When I switch between logged in accounts, I have to manually refresh the feed tab/view to reflect the account switch. I would prefer the reload be done automatically, an option to allow users to specify this behavior would be ideal.

 

I moderate !usmlr@lemmy.world, I just noticed that all the posts older than about 7 months are not visible. Looking at my own post history I can see those older posts, so I know they're still there. But why aren't they displayed when viewing the community directly?
