There is something wrong with being a billionaire if your road to those billions exploited even just one person. There is something wrong with being a billionaire if you don’t give your fair share back to the society that benefits you. We have created malevolent Gods, and they aim to destroy us.

I think we'll find that JD is already dead on the inside so it's just a matter of his outer shell eventually cracking and falling away.

I almost never use Discover, but I think you need to do some very intentional follows, likes, and replies to train the algorithm. That's the only way it can know what you like.

Bluebook would have been great too, if it wasn't already in use.

On the sticky header:
{anchor-name: --stickyHeader;}
On the popup:
{
position: absolute;
position-anchor: --stickyHeader;
margin: 0;
inset: auto;
top: anchor(bottom);
left: anchor(left);
}

I tried it with anchor positioning inspired by a video by @kevinpowell.co. You'll need a polyfill: github.com/oddbird/css-...

As others have said I don't think you can make it go behind (as in a layer underneath) a sticky header, but you can keep it visually lower in the page by absolutely positioning it to the header so it never gets the chance to ride up over the header.

"Get the HPV vaccine if you haven't already" should be one of the strongest messages we send to 18-year-olds. Many have been waiting for the moment they can get out from under their parents' rigid views of sexuality and/or pseudo-scientific beliefs.

The conservative approach to parenting is “You should only be allowed to make decisions for *your* kids that align with *my* values.”

Sometimes bad things happen to bad people. Would be wildly optimistic to think any experience would change them for the better. Trauma has it own agenda and it’s primarily self-preservation. That’s somehow easier to accomplish if you don’t gaf about anyone else. At least in a very shallow sense…

Yes I think it's nearly impossible to leave a cult that is everywhere you go, everything you hear and see, a steady dopamine drip into your brain. They have Trump non-stop rallies, Fox in their living rooms and waiting rooms, and the richest man on earth weilding the internet's biggest bullhorn.

I’ve been thinking about this a lot. Their leader is a demagogue. Do we also need that kind of cult mentality in order to compete? (I really hope not!) But any leader of the increasingly diverse Dem party would have to be a unicorn. And they’d need to campaign nonstop the way Trump has for 9 years.

We think life is chaotic now, just imagine if spells bought on the internet actually worked. The world would be overrun with toads.

Not to mention he’s apparently blissfully unaware how expensive protein and fresh produce is. Especially if you had to quit your full time job in order to get all those steps in.

If by "fun", you mean "lucrative", then yes. Exactly what they thought.

Imagine agreeing to give up for a man with a 9x a day McDonald’s habit and a loser, ultra colonizer who had to buy an app to get people to pay attention to him. I think not. We all protecting out here. We’re thriving. We’re being helpful all over these communities.

So we've come full-circle it seems. Underneath this whirlpool, I think we're both driven by the same current - to be and do better. In particular to be better allies. I really appreciate that about you.

I agree fat-shaming is terrible. I disagree that talking about nutrition is inherently fat-shaming. But maybe joking about cheeseburger-induced heart attacks is inadvertently fat-shaming? That's something I'll be thinking about today.

Hatred destroys the hater, not the hated. It's ineffective. It saps energy. It blinds you to ethical solutions. Worst of all, it gives them power over you.
They should be thwarted at every opportunity, but I can't function if I'm consumed by hate. Which is not to say I'm not angry. I surely am.

Although I agree with you about the nature of hatred, I can assure you I don’t hate the subjects in this photo. That’s a waste of my energy, and I have precious little of it left. These 5 will cause countless deaths in the next 4 years. There is nothing immoral about hoping fate intervenes.

I agree that shaming people is horrible, unless of course they brought the shame upon themselves like the 5 fascists in the pic. But I was not judging them for their meal choice, although I'm partial to Wendy's. It was just impossible to look at them and not go from cheeseburgers to heart attacks.

Is talking about nutrition equal to shaming people? To your mind is there any way to discuss the science of nutrition? Do you think it's possible to talk about wanting nutritious food for everyone while conveying that there is no shame implied? Surely we have the skills to do that?

Drinks fridge in the basement, here in New England it’s common. Ours came with the house and is older than the ages of all our other appliances combined. Having to kick the precise spot on the door to get it to seal is a small price to pay for the fact it will never die.

All of these links are to do with the issues surrounding weight and how fat bodies are defined, shamed, scolded… particularly bipoc bodies. I would argue those are very different discussions than the one we’re having about nutrition. I’m not suggesting we measure a person’s health by their weight.

All of the descendants of all of the sailors who didn’t die of scurvy are grateful for the captain who stowed limes on board. I’m sure there are bipoc scientists and nutritionists who would agree. Information is power. And necessary to making informed decisions.

But I don’t see how pretending we don’t know how various nutrients affect physical and mental health would help improve anything anywhere.
comment in response to

To me that sounds like ignoring science; a direct path to anti-vax and supplement shills.
I agree we need to understand the harm done when we impose one culture over another, and that we (white people) have to learn we aren’t helping if we aren’t listening and ceding power.

If you ignore the objective reality of nutritional value, then you never grapple with the lack of affordable healthy options. It’s a head-in-the-sand approach.
comment in response to
post
Are you saying all food is nutritionally equal? Because that is provably not true. Evaluating the quality of various foods does not equal judging the people eating it.

Just unfollowed him because of this nonsense. It's beyond me why anyone would knowingly invite to their feed a boatload of unknown accounts whose only offering is blue heart emojis.
