  • Just so you know, there is a conflicting study mentioned at the end of the main section that refutes the original claim:

    In a 2004 study, it was reported that cats falling from higher places suffered more severe injuries than those experiencing shorter drops.[5]

    In the main section they call out that there may be a survivorship bias. Basically, you only bring in the cats that survived a high drop because otherwise the cat is clearly dead.









  • I think I’ve seen you pop up a couple of times saying “The Democratic Party also murdered more Palestinians than the Republican Party”. What do you mean by that and what are the sources?

    I didn’t think the US was really all that directly involved in the Palestinian conflict, but more tacitly responsible for arming Israel and not trying to rein them in.

    Additionally, if you’re talking about Biden vs Trump admins as your timeline for dem/repub, that’s really just different phases of the conflict rather than one admin doing anything more/less. If anything, the real relief that Palestine has gotten is Israel dragging the US into war with Iran. Can’t really expend resources on Palestine when fighting a country that’s equally capable.



  • Honestly, I think it’s really the rate in which big games are being released tied up with console exclusives that has people upset.

    If I’m going to just play indie games there isn’t much reason to use a PS5 for that (or maybe that’s not the type of games most people care about).

    I know in my household we talked about getting a PS5, but the only game that’s out that I slightly care about is Wolverine. Not only did it just get okay reviews, but it’s not worth $700+ to play a single game.

    God of War or Ghosts of Tushima might have been tempting, but they’re now on PC, where I won’t have to worry a out backwards compatability in the future.
