Studying appetite, learned about leptin levels.

 

I can't be the only one who wondered what cytosol tastes like when we read about it in class...

I still don't understand why not USA / Canada, where cars are very common

Damn. I think they should still give food, but yeah he should gtfo.

We need to get off fossil fuels ASAP, we also should probably wean away from car centricity, it's making us dependent on these oil cartels. They have an oligopoly and they can just yank the prices up if they want and screw over everybody else.

Fair enough, but I'd make a few objections,

I don't think an imbalance necessarily means that we should automatically assume discrimination, for example there is a small correlation between sex and interest (men to objects, women to living things) which may account for some discrepancy in certain fields.

Hiring committees would depend but very often we see HR is majority female, and some studies show that female named job applications in certain cases may be more favoured even when the exact same application is given with a male name.

In terms of school, I can attest that boys need to stop fucking around during class time and actually pay attention, but I've seen another study show that for the exact same work, public school teachers sometimes mark higher for a girls work.

The last point I would make is that there are quite a few female only grants and bursaries and aid programs, but there's very few that outright exist for males.

That's my two cents, but I understand your perspective as well.

I think Warren Farrell especially, and a bit of Leonard Sax as well have gone into this in more detail.

Unfortunately the mainstream feminist objection is that "men should just make their own support organizations" but the problem is sometimes the government won't give them a nickel, which I find absurd.

This guy in Calgary Canada made a men's domestic violence shelter, (shockingly women are first statistically to initiate domestic violence, which I didn't know). This was around 2011 or so? But the local feminists at the time online were saying that he should not feel entitled to government funding and only women's shelters should get government funding. I think he killed himself afterwards.

So it seems like when men do band together to make a support group, it doesn't get the same amount of government support as a women's group will.

The gist of it: with each passing decade there's a growing shortage of construction laborers, resulting in large wait times for housing to be built. Some analysts wonder why the key demographic isn't showing up.

I've seen a few articles in the past few years about young men supposedly checking out of society and work, I wonder if there is a connection between that and this article here because young men tend to be the prime demographic for working this job.

Companies need to pay their workers better.

 

Todd Litman from the Victoria Transport Policy Institute (Canada) discusses some methods for creating shaded pathways to protect pedestrians from excess heat.

 

I'm really into traditional architecture and pre-automobile urban planning. Unfortunately there isn't a lot of that in North America. I know there are a few, I was wondering if Ontario specifically has any nice villages that fit this description? Preferably not abandoned ones, i am looking for ones still inhabited.

 

With this heatwave ive been dreaming about a cool winter mornings
