We also have the “Boston left” as I call it here where often 1-2 cars that want to turn left in the opposite lane will turn left immediately as the light turns green even though they don’t have right of way. Coming from northern NJ I was quite confused by this until I got used to it.

It’s a 3 paragraph article from a little local news outlet. Over reacting much with the thread title? Local news outlets put out all sorts of tiny little pieces on basically non-events. Someone reads them I guess.

I pay for my insurance and it pays for preventative care in the form of physicals. Do I leave every physical with a diagnosis? No. Does every visit for a symptom or two leave with a diagnosis? No, of course not, but we still sometimes seek care to make sure it isn’t more serious or get some...

I mean isn’t part of the issue here our asinine insurance system that demands a diagnosis for every mental health visit to have any form of therapy covered? Therapy can be very helpful for people who aren’t at the level of an actual diagnosable condition but would like some support, possibly to...

Uh…civil rights movement? The Civil war? I’m pretty sure those on the wrong side of history in those examples would say they were “force fed” that era’s equivalent of “woke”. I’m sure in the 1950s and 1960s there were plenty of people complaining about certain words that became unacceptable to use…

This doesn’t seem that complicated. My read of Brad Z’s post is that it is to distinguish those who are being taught, or learning, from those specifically who only hold a student pilot certificate. E.g. a PPL in instrument instruction is a student in that they are learning and not certificated...

Very cool idea. Wish you the best of luck with it.

“Several of them appear to be juveniles, and were pictured being handcuffed and hauled away by cops. It is unclear which, if any, of those photographed are among the three suspects. ” ”Appear to be”, ”unclear which, if any”

Nah man it was Bill Gates, private sector! Gotta sell that data to the ad companies.

Fair enough. Don’t really care enough to spend the time reading the article, poor attempt at humor failed.

Where’s the Elon jet tracker kid? Maybe he can expand his stable.

Every time I’m forced to use windows I end up wanting to put a bullet in my brain. Installing it in there would be…short lived lol

And there it is. Don’t think that warrants much more of a response than that. Have a good day

considering that some 85% of people become parents by old age, those same parents are the ones represented in the stats. Becoming a parent or a grandparent or a pastor doesn’t magically make you immune to misinformation or imbue you with some infallible capability to separate fact from fiction...

You think the previous generation acts to correct any form of propaganda? Look at who owns the most insidious of media conglomerates, who controls the government, who shares the most false information (fake news if you will) on social media. Hint: it isn't Gen Y or Z. Previous generations aren't...

Nope but it shows that these complaints have been made of the same generations that now hold themselves up as the paragon of hard-working, moral, upstanding citizens. With respect to data on millennial and Gen z vs those before them...

Time to post my seemingly bi-monthly post with links to a collection of quotes showing old people have always complained that the youth are lazy, entitled, stupid, wasteful, and immoral. https://historyhustle.com/2500-years-of-people-complaining-about-the-younger-generation/...

**** like this is absolutely why I make it a hard rule for myself that one drink and I don’t drive for at least 2-3 hours. Any more than 1 drink and I’m not driving for the night. My tolerance can vary wildly and there’s no point in risking. I live in a city and we have public transit and Ubers...

Not claiming those pictures are real or accurate. Haven’t vetted the source at all (not that I really could). Just found it online while surfing and figured I’d share.
