Part of the goal is to encourage their campaign to get more of a mastodon presence

Most of those claims about treatment of trans people are just false. They are primarily based on misattributed actions of other people which harris has denounced

Here's a good article looking at just that

Not saying she's perfect, but consider with the two party system in the US, the alternative is far far worse

Harris has generally pushed for minimum wage increases where she can. For instance

She has advocated for $15/hr minimum wage and joined protesting and striking workers in that push before

Unlike a certain rich republican candidate who has misused funds, the money goes to their campaign not the person themselves

US elections certainly takes way more money than it should but until Citizen United gets overturned, donating is an unfortunately important part of elections for those who can afford to do so

Fixed now

The irony of having to fill out a captcha before you can play the game is really something

There are perceptional reasons why it may feel like milk worked better such as it being cooled vs using room temperature water. Or from being the second thing used. Or from various different factors

But the research above suggests it doesn't do as much as people think it does

The infection risks are not the same. Milk has stuff in it that microbes like for growing where water doesn't have nearly all that. Other stuff can enter inside. The eye infection pathway is concerning especially right now when bird flu seems to enter that way and is in large quatities of dairy milk. Not all pasturization methods are certain to actually remove it (i.e flash pasturization might not)

Edit: A minor point to clarify, capsaicin is in pepper spray but not tear gas. They often do get conflated but they are different

Only if they consent :3

(but also probably not great in terms of infection risk either)

I would think that alcohol on the eyes wouldn't do too many good things to them, however

One of the studied things was using antacids in that pepper spray study and didn't find much benfit for it for pepper spray. There currently doesn't really seem to much that research confirm works any better than any other liquid over the eyes

Globally, factory farming is dominant

It’s estimated that three-quarters – 74% – of land livestock are factory-farmed. That means that at any given time, around 23 billion animals are on these farms.

You'll find the environmental effects are more so categorical than because of how its produced

How do the distributions between plant-based and meat-based sources compare?

Plant-based protein sources – tofu, beans, peas and nuts – have the lowest carbon footprint. This is certainly true when you compare average emissions. But it’s still true when you compare the extremes: there’s not much overlap in emissions between the worst producers of plant proteins, and the best producers of meat and dairy.

I believe the diference between the two claims may be due to controlling for height in one of the findings that they don't correlate to athleticism and not in the other

Reading some more scientific literature, I think they probably read that it was associated with muscle mass (due being associated with height which wasn't controled for). Controling for height makes the association go away

They are basing it off of different reports between those claims
