how do you feel about this question?

so you just agree with science when it confirms your pre-existing biases i see

i guess your research isn't very comprehensive or robust then :( do you at least have any evidence that isn't anecdotal?

did you record responses? how many opiate addicts did you talk to? how long had they been addicted to opiates? what withdrawal symptoms did they present with? were the symptoms each person presented with consistent with one another? to what degree did individual experiences of opiate...

do you have cause to believe that the neuroscience and biology on opiate addiction is garbage? what percentage is more or less garbage in these fields? if you do believe the science in these areas is garbage, please demonstrate why. can you point to any instances of this occurring? ~ or on...

what was your control group? can you outline the methodology you used to investigate the effects of opiate withdrawal on participants?

oh sorry i didn't realise you'd researched this topic! where can i find your published study?

at least you're honest enough to admit you're in an echo chamber

ahh, the backpedaling has begun 1. who is even doing this? do you presume to know the bearability of withdrawals in each drug user, to a degree of accuracy that you'd know when it was being exaggerated or not? 2. empathy towards patients has been demonstrated as one of the key factors in...

good thing you specified :^) in no particular order: - write a book - have sex on a church altar - write a book about having sex on a church altar - roll down a really, really big hill - write a book detailing the pros and cons of rolling down really, really big hills - meet vladimir putin -...

it's just one example among many of his lack of intellectual rigour and understanding of complex issues if he wanted to claim that it's relatable to a generic few days case of the flu, that would be equally absurd. addiction and viruses are two entirely different things for one, and attempting...

yeah, severity is strain dependent. and even in non severe cases people are usually too sick to work and feel dreadful. this is also not taking into account the psychological aspects of withdrawal, and the fact that dependent on the time spent taken the drug and other factors surrounding the...

welcome back don't remember you but i'm glad you enjoy it here :^)

lol still missing the point notice how he says it's not true that the symptoms are "not virtually unbearable, it's hardly worse than the flu" um yeah, and depending on the strain, the flu kills people. in 2017 it was the 11th leading cause of death in Australia. in many cases the flu is quite...

jokes aside my point is the same as it was before that theodore dingleberry is trying to minimise the severity of opiate withdrawal by conflating it with the flu. which displays ignorance both of how severe the flu can really be as well as ignorance of the differences in physiological...

*opens thread* *closes thread*

where did i say opiate withdrawal is more fatal? i'm pointing out the flaw of conflating opiate withdrawal and the flu in the first place - they're two different phenomena. so unless otherwise evidenced, conflating the two because some conservative pundit finds it convenient for peddling his...

instead of talking shit on the internet, why don't you start shooting up heroin for the next 6 months and then prove to us how easy it is to quit serac you talk about wanting science, so go do science also can we please get a citation for recovery from opiate addiction being "hardly worse than...

refined and aesthetic fingerblasting

having another manic episode are we lagomorph?

that's a pretty clear case where i'd feel more guilty about not reporting them than reporting them

um no Serac it's not actually that "hard to make inferences" and no one has to read 1500 studies to make an informed opinion on the topic of climate change the fact that you're ignorant doesn't mean that anyone has to be patient and respectful towards you when your default position on the...

arguments presented with no evidence are fairly dismissed with no evidence

it's funny how strikingly similar his style of writing is to Serac if Serac literally posted this i wouldn't even bat an eyelid

i think you mean escalating anyway the obvious problem here on just one issue that i care to pay any attention to is that he draws false equivalency between actual science and 'indoctrination of children on contentious political matters' this supremely stupid statement implies that climate...

CLIMATE CHANGE ISN'T REAL GUYS

when i saw the thread title and author i fully expected to open it and end up reading a list of charged statements ranging from ignorant at worst to tenuously informed at best. but what i actually got was

:musical-note: whatever you want it to be :musical-note:

i dunno i just wanted to see what people would say tbh sorry

@Lagomorph yeah school shootings happen because people don't take flat earthers, climate change deniers and the KKK seriously. we should all spend our time taking them seriously :^) i'm not talking about debatable spheres of discussion, i'm talking about genuinely ridiculous shit where the...

i might have agreed with you once but science wins sorry but you're wrong

not everyone majors in philosophy

i like how people complain about people's inability to have reasonable discourse and then follow it up by asserting that without religion we'd be incapable of having effective legislation in a modern society why won't anyone debate my stupid ideas reasonably? :(:(:( engaging in 'rational...

it's not intentional, it's the output of a system whose nature relies on falsely dichotomous concepts (functions) as predictors of psychology. which means that testing for these functions involves presenting the taker with a whole bunch of said dichotomies and then telling them what it means to...

oh right because apparently women are just observers during sex and don't actually do things, and the only fun part of sex is shoving things in the vagina :^)

gg

peace

Frank is so fucking cool you must do Frank

so only black people and INTJs like black people?

that's just how i normally look tho, people who know me won't recognise the outfit maybe i'll go as hilary

i wanna go to halloween as donald trump

what other types like black people?

oh no he's from the ****BRITISH DIMENSION**** no one point it out or ill fucking ban them

i could do like one week days for a more chill game

i can make it lobster themed

sounds about right

the validity of it is what makes it so good tbh. the results are great, just not satisfying. but satisfying results and accurate results are two different things. it's not there trying to tick off every box, it's just reporting on trends in personality. also welcome back my dude :D
