Looking back at this debate a day later and you are probably right but I understand where both sides are coming from

Yes and the civil rights movement was definitely way more important, but I think he was talking abt it in terms of protests specifically, I may be wrong but in the protest context then yes it’s bigger

Larger is a word that can mean many things depending on the intent, it’s pretty obvious that wills intent was using larger in the context of protest population

Jacob young is so good defensively, if he didn’t miss a little time to injury and played everyday I think he would prolly have better cumulative oaa and DRS than PCA

they should bunt every single at bat, they should ATTACK with fastballs down the middle and not go for the "analytics". they dont need velocity, real pitchers pitch by throwing meatballs, they shouldnt be doing flashby "dances/celebrations" real batsmen bunt and act casual about it!

A few years ago there were 2 minor league pitchers who had the same name, (Brady feigl) both were 6’4, both had red hair, both were 53% German both wore thick glasses and they did a DNA test and they somehow weren’t related

The fact that this article on soy causing deforestation doesn't cover how all that soy is being used is a wild media failure. The vast majority (70-80%) is being fed to animals.

It's not the "world's taste for soya" it's the world's taste for meat.

How the world’s taste for soya is eating Brazil’s Amazon

Cultivation of the crop has made a few wealthy but at a huge cost to untouched forest as it spreads across vast areas of former wilderness

There are a lot of people who give a shit about him, they just happen to be 8 year olds who aren’t on social media so it doesn’t feel like they exist. I’ve worked at summer day camp for like three years now, so you can trust me.

Mr Beast is very emblematic of modern fame where he’s very successful, incredibly rich, gets 12 billion views on everything, and simultaneously, at the very same time, no one gives one single shit about him

Animal Ag is much more than 18% of GHG.

18% is ONLY direct CH4 methane emissions by mainly cows.

Deforestation for cattle is the real CO2 driver and also destroys CO2 storage opportunities.

If we count the total together, Animal Ag is HALF of all climate forcing W/m2.
