<p>I think a much smaller percentage of smart high school seniors want to go into journalism at all. And if they do they'll probably just start a TikTok debating people</p>

<p>Yeah there's a few red flags here that belie the problem with this piece.<p>Women emphasize "empathy over rationality" ... what a strange dichotomy. As if empathy could not be rational, or rational thought automatically leads to dis-empathy.<p>She asserts that feminine culture emphasizes cohesion, but then brings up a biracial (what's the point of this note?) reporter at the NYT not having coffee with Bari Weiss and says that this snub is "feminine". What? Are woman about cohesion or not? The previous graph would assert that colleagues would have coffee to not hurt each others' feelings, but then she claims the backhanded animosity ALSO as feminine.<p>Make up your mind, woman.</p>

<p>What is the "false information" being pushed here? That transgender people exist?<p>Anyone who has watched "Dead End" knows the only "propaganda" it is pushing is that trans kids exist and one particular one (Barney) feels more comfortable expressing what they feel is their most authentic identity.<p>Also what is the comparative exposure of LGBTQ experience as seen in children's programming versus the amount of heterosexual experience they are shown?</p>

<p>No, that's not "exactly what you're trying to say". You asserted incorrectly that the UK findings were that gender care does not help at all. By any genuine reading of the study it absolutely doesn't say that. This is intellectually disingenous.</p>

<p>One piece of evidence is drastically reduced rates of suicide in children that get gender-affirming care. This has been shown in multiple studies and metastudies. That's enough for me.</p>

<p>Regarding the mental element, many people report that GLP-1 drugs help calm the "food buzz" running thoughts constantly obsessing about food all day. It can help you step out of the cycle and most likely would make therapy, meditation and books more effective.</p>

<p>"Far more people are playing UT99 than in the past as you just need to download it there and play it."<p>This is laughably untrue.<p>But mostly this article just says "old good games are old and good". It's nice that they run on anything, but comparing the current slate of new-ish games against... the entire history of PC gaming, I actually think new games are doing just fine:<p>- Fortnite<p>- Apex Legends<p>- Valorant<p>- Overwatch<p>- COD<p>- League<p>- Dota 2<p>- Roblox<p>Heck there are still people playing Phasmophobia.</p>

<p>This is a great answer.<p>But I'm curious what the answer would look like if every strata in it was not "things you can buy" but "things you can do with the money" ... if the "IMPACT" section was delineated at each level.<p>One of the things I envy the most about my rich friends is their capacity to be generous. They can materialize their compassion on a regular basis without having to balance their budget.<p>I'd like to see what that looks like at each of these wealth levels.<p>(One funny thing I noticed is that I have multiple friends with virtual personal assistants now, at middle class levels of weath/entrepreneurship... definitely not a rich man's thing anymore.)</p>

<p>It's because the personality attached to the guy on the right is no doubt way more into how he looks, and how impressed he wants people to be by how he looks.<p>It also means that dating him will include leaving chunks of every day for him to workout, and counting macronutrients at every meal.<p>The guy on the right looks like a self-involved boring person to hang out with. Well fit for sure! But what are you going to talk about beyond the benefits of creatine and whether or not you should get protein from whey?</p>
