The medieval ages weren't 'dark'. They were full of innovation, technological growth and religious virtue. You're leaning on old leftist mainstream lies.

The problem is there are many dozens of Nitter domains

There are? I thought it was a KF scenario in which a single site changes domains every now and then.

Btw how do you use Twitter without an account and no redirector?

I don't.

What do you do when there's a Twitter link somewhere? Manually copy paste the link?

I try to, if I care enough. Otherwise I skip it.

Exactly. One begins at the personal level, not the macro political.

Why are you paying for their accommodations at all?

I'm against this. I don't have a twitter account and I don't want to use a redirector. If yours doesn't parse a Nitter link, then your software is insufficient. Why burden the rest of us with that mediocrity?

People are dumb. Corrupt people get complacent. Those who've 'made it' into whatever station become stagnant. Habituation towards taking it easy meant nobody cared enough to be diligent.

That's how things like this happen.

Article was written in 2013 in the future tense. I looked into it and there's another article written the next year about the results:

https://www.thepinknews.com/2014/09/01/study-attributes-75-lesbian-obesity-to-athletic-low-self-esteem/

LGBT people have found to be 46-76% less likely to be on a sports team due to “gender nonconformity and athletic self-esteem.”
Other research out of the project finds that lesbians are more likely to see themselves as a healthy weight, even if they are not.
Conclusions listed included:”Physical activity contexts should be modified to welcome sexual minority males and females.”

That was a third of 1.5m's worth, with two more years of research left as of 2014.

EDIT- Hey, WTF not, I went further and here's what looks to me like the final result of that 1.5m:

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5329123/

Lesbian and bisexual women are at greater risk of being obese than heterosexual women
Measures included diet quality (...); calorie, fat, and fiber intake; and glycemic load and index.
On average, lesbian and bisexual women reported better diet quality (p<0.001) and diets lower in glycemic index (p<0.001) than heterosexual women.

BTW, Abstract's Results and Conclusions summary doesn't mention calorie intake at all, so I went further in and skimmed the damn thing:

According to their graphs, lesbian women both eat better and eat less calories, even though they are more obese.

That's 1.5m well spent, folks.

Psychology today is so corrupted that I'd find it hard to trust anyone I love to a therapist.

I don't know about the USA's SSRIs prescriptions. I've heard rumors about them being prescribed too often and in too large a dose. However, SSRI's are not a placebo. They are not worthless poison either. You are dead wrong.

SSRI's helped me years ago when I was going through depression. They lift the load by mitigating the symptoms, making it easier to work towards fixing the causes. They are not stupid.

I don't know if they're wrong on children, since there may be edge cases where it's appropriate, but SSRI's shouldn't be illegal. They have their proper use and they do help lift the load.

The pills were Sertraline. Sertraline is an SSRI which is safe as long as you don't stop taking it suddenly. If you do, you get something like a "despair" attack. People who kill themselves on Sertraline do it after stopping to take it. This is a serious risk since most depressed people don't always act in their best interests.

The real problem in this case is the fact that the pills were unlabeled to keep the father in the dark.

Look, If Brand is tried and convicted THEN you can deperson him

Unless he's advocating rape in his videos, I don't see why he should be banned even if he was guilty.

I don't know. Getting married before 20 was never actually common in history.

It's already been done somewhere and there must be guides for it.
