MicroWave OP , in Pickleball Is America's Fastest-Growing Sport – But Is It Also The Most Dangerous? Report Shows It Could Cost US $500 Million In Medical Expenses
@MicroWave@lemmy.world avatar

The escalating frequency of pickleball injuries has brought concerns about the safety of the popular sport to the forefront. A recent study revealed that approximately 90% of reported cases affected people 50 and older, with sprains and fractures making up nearly half of the injuries.

Breaking news: old people are fragile and taxing to the healthcare system

It’s hard for me to believe the benefits of the increase in exercise are outweighed by the risks of injury. I’d be quite surprised if pickleball didn’t reduce the total cost of medical care.

Matthew Lazinski from the University of South Florida School of Physical Therapy & Rehab Sciences, reflecting on the rise in pickleball injuries witnessed in the clinic, emphasizes the potential risks associated with the sport. He asserts that the surge in injuries can be attributed to people embracing an active lifestyle. He said the advantages gained from exercise outweigh the associated costs.

It’s right there in the article.

As the arctic ice continues to accelerate it’s thaw, water levels will rise a foot in the next 30years. This is going to continue as temperatures rise. Better move to higher ground Florida. Your state will look like Atlantis in the next 100-200years.

No see, governor rick scott (Republican) banned his administration from using the term climate change, just like governor desantis (also Republican, surprise surprise) banned covid. So Florida is safe from both of those without any action required. Freedom!

It will be continuously wrecked by heat and storms in the mean time. 100 years is now beyond being only a highly optmistic timeline for these places.

It’s like that meme about a high voltage station. It will not only die but suffer a lot while dying.

Usually if they don’t announce his termination, he eas reassigned until things blow over.

sweeny , in How America fell out of love with ice cream

Who weighs their ice cream? I’m surprised this measured by weight and not something like pints or calories.

Anyways, I wonder if this has to do with the rising trend of plant based diets. I still eat ice cream occasionally but the vegan ice cream I get wouldn’t be counted as ice cream in this data (understandably so)

Coreidan ,

Pretty much anything measured in large quantities is by weight. It’s the most accurate and consistent method.

Arotrios , in Robert F. Kennedy Jr. condemned over false claims that COVID-19 was "ethnically targeted"
@Arotrios@kbin.social avatar

Keep calling out this deranged motherfucker. He's responsible for countless deaths:

During the pandemic, Kennedy has become a near-ubiquitous source of false information about COVID-19 and vaccines. Earlier this year, Kennedy was named one of the “Disinformation Dozen” by the Center for Countering Digital Hate, which says he and the Children’s Health Defense website are among the top spreaders of false information about vaccines online.

....note that the Children's Heath Defense organization is Kennedy's personal charity, and...

The AP found links to Children’s Health Defense articles all over Facebook. While many were shared as posts on the pages of fellow anti-vaccine activists, many more could be found in the comments sections on pages that people turn to for reliable information, including official government Facebook pages in all 50 states, and in health departments in nearly every state.
“The vaccine was not created to save us all from a pandemic. The pandemic was created to get us to take the vaccine and more,” one person wrote in February below a North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services Facebook post.
Then, they linked to a January Children’s Health Defense article that claimed 329 deaths following the COVID-19 shot had been reported to VAERS, a federal vaccine safety surveillance system that has been misused by anti-vaccine activists.
“Every Friday, the true American hero Robert F Kennedy Jr. pulls the data from the VAERS report. Here is the latest up until 1/22,” the commenter wrote. Another user replied that the comment had been reported for dishonesty, but it was still up 10 months later.

...as a result:

Since January, Children’s Health Defense’s COVID-19 vaccine-related posts were shared more frequently on Twitter than links to vaccine content on mainstream sites including CNN, Fox News, NPR and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, according to Indiana University’s Observatory on Social Media, which tracks COVID-19 vaccine-related content on Twitter. In some weeks, it found, CHD COVID-19 vaccine content was shared more often than that of The New York Times and The Washington Post.

You know what's really weird? RFK supported Sirhan Sirhan's release - went against his entire family to do so too. I think the guy has some dark daddy issues.

ArugulaZ ,

Dude's got more issues than National Geographic. And is about as useful as post-Fox National Geographic.

I stopped buying ice cream when people started licking them in the grocery store

I read this story just to laugh at this loser some more. Meh. Not worth it. He’s just a stupid, boring asshole. (I’m not complaining about your decision to post the story, OP. I’m just complaining about the idiot the story is about.)

MicroWave OP , in How America fell out of love with ice cream
@MicroWave@lemmy.world avatar

In 1986, the average American ate 18 pounds of regular ice cream, according to the USDA. By 2021, the most recent year of the data, that was down a third to just 12 pounds per person.

12 pounds per person still feels like a lot.

Blamemeta ,

Per what time period? Life time?

Num10ck ,

per year.

MicroWave OP ,
@MicroWave@lemmy.world avatar

Per year if I’m reading the article correctly.

Burninator05 ,

I agree. I don’t eat anywhere near that so one of you must have increased your consumption by a third to pretty close to 24 pounds.

I also think it’s weird that they are measuring in mass when it is almost always sold by volume.

zombuey OP , in Sony and Microsoft agree Call of Duty stays on PlayStation

Whats hilarious to me is that Microsoft wouldn’t have done this in the first place lol. They have been porting their own traditionally exclusive titles to PC.
