My fridge because once a year it seems the coils freeze over.

Classic Rock is a specific genre, not just old music. Similar to how Oldies refers to a time period Classic Rock refers to 60’s and 70’s rock.

Given that most cities have areas with varying proportions of people of different ethnicities, yeah it can be discriminatory. They just target certain neighborhoods and know that those are far more likely to be people of a certain background. Not saying they did or didn’t do it here, but that’s how they can do things like that.

Exactly. And then we are back to the original issue of where the scene is already at. If you insist on charging money people have an excuse to not go. If it’s free people can just come to try it out. There’s a reason this problem has not been solved yet.

I would point out that I mentioned I ran a club before. The venue is the issue. It’s very hard to find somewhere we can use for free. I’m working on getting my garage set up to be able to host, but I don’t really want to open up my house to the public and it’s small anyway. I’m very aware of how to do it, it’s just not practical.

I feel this hard. I swing dance and my local scene sucks. There’s no college club for the scene to be based around so everyone who organizes and teaches is out to make money from it. I ran my college club (which was open to community members) and I’ve had them ask me how to increase involvement and they really don’t like it when I tell them it’s far too expensive to dance around here.

Regime, not administration.

Gonna need some sauce on that chief.

What a great example of what they were talking about!

That’s a soul patch not a goatee

KitKat is also hershey’s in the US.

I believe he’s one of the very many YouTubers who’s a Mormon.

Scary that asking for a citation is considered contempting by some. That doesn’t back up what the other person said at all though. There’s a huge difference between saying a virus causes AD and saying that infections worsen cognitive decline in AD. I understand not everyone is experienced in reading scientific literature, but it’s important to recognize that and not spread misinformation if you don’t understand what is being described. The closest this paper gets is to connecting two things: infections cause inflammation and inflammation contributes to AD. Both of these things have already been known for a long time. This does not mean AD is a result of a virus or viral infections.

I started mine in 2023. I got one experiment run and I probably won’t get to run another. My dissertation will likely be made up of just running different analyses with the existing data I have. So glad we chose a government more based on caring about which genitals were in which genital restricted sports than caring about funding things like my research on Alzheimer’s.

Well reading that first result, have you even read it? It said it may effect a rare subtype and could accelerate what we already know is happening. Not cause it.

Helps to actually read it ;)

When you literally don’t have the money to buy groceries or the time to prepare food, yep. Or the education to truly understand the impacts of eating that food all the time… This is why poor people in America are overweight.

OK so let’s start with Nature Metabolism because that’s the big one here. Nature is one of the number one scientific journals to get published in. They are so big they have a portfolio dedicated for different fields. This is one of them. This tells me you are not familiar with the field. Getting published in Nature alone is impressive and tells us this article did go through a rigorous peer review process.

Secondly, the effects mentioned in the news article align with similar research I am familiar with, and in science consensus is usually a good sign for the findings being valid.

I haven’t had time to look through the actual published article yet but I’m inclined to believe this. Regarding the sample size, yes it’s smallish, but you can’t judge it on its own. You have to look at the stats to see if it was sufficient or not. The larger the effect the smaller the sample size you need to show it. Liver fat went from like 1.5-2.5% which is a huge difference. I have definitely seen legitimate studies before with similar sample sizes.

Imma assign this weight heavier than the average study you come across, though less groundbreaking.

Separately, there is supposedly some evidence now that Alzheimer’s is caused by a virus, or by a history of viral infections.

You got a citation for that?
