mrpants , in We Are Witnessing the First Stages of Civilization’s Collapse

Garbage clickbait nonsense

Good to one that a) you didn’t read it and b) you don’t know what “clickbait” is. Rarely is “clickbait” long form, jsyk.

Rarely is “clickbait” long form, jsyk.

lmao what?

Clickbait is a headline or thumbnail link that is designed to attract attention and entice users to click on a link. Clickbait is often deceptive, sensationalized, or misleading. It can include exaggerated claims or leaving out key information.

What you have posted is the literal definition of clickbait.

So what “exaggerated claim” did it make or “key information” was left out? Because the article goes into great detail on the subject - civilization collapse - that it brings up.

Actually, never mind. You have a lovely day.

foggy ,

Civilization is not mid-collapse. That is sensationalistic. It is meant to drive clicks.

It is clickbait.

Bdtrngl , in When a Coke Plant Closed in Pittsburgh, Cardiovascular ER Visits Plunged

My overtired brain took this as a coca cola plant and much confusion was had.

donut4ever ,

It isn’t a coca cola plant?

Zorque , (edited )

Either drug decriminalization has come a lot farther than I realized, or it's this

donut4ever ,

The second one sounds like it is the one

Wow now I know of a third type of Coke !

supercriticalcheese ,

Not quite. At the very least you wouldn’t want to drink anything that is coming out of it.

Coca-Cola doesn't grow from plants, dumbass.

With that attitude it won’t.

“In this type of plant, coal is heated until it turns into coke, an ingredient used to make steel. When heated, coal releases carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide and other pollutants.”

Landmammals , in Lucy Letby will die in prison after receiving 14 whole-life sentences

Yes she will. Probably before the year is out.

Foggyfroggy , in Wage demands hit record high: Average job seeker wants at least $78k

That’s awesome average jobs are paying 78k! Pretty sure employees don’t demand anything.

Zorque ,

Average job seekers want 78k, that doesn't mean the average job is 78k.

Foggyfroggy ,

But then that stat is meaningless. I want a million dollars. Who cares? But if employees are moving to new companies for 78k, then I would report “employees want 78k for a new job”. It wouldn’t makes sense to report that “employers don’t want to pay 78k” because they never want to pay anything.

This is worded to make labor seem unreasonable on purpose.

Zorque ,

What article are you reading? I'm not seeing anything about "employers refuse to pay 78k", only that offers are less than that (and still significantly more than what they were this time last year). The article seems to put more stock in the marked difference in demands and offers between women and men.

Astroturfed , in San Francisco Archdiocese files for bankruptcy as it faces more than 500 sexual abuse lawsuits

Good thing all these struggling small businesses were able to get covid relief loans. Most of them got to pay off their horrible pedo rape lawsuits with the money!

Byereddithellolemmy , in Wage demands hit record high: Average job seeker wants at least $78k

Seems reasonable. Life is expensive as fuck.

$10 for a jar of pickles. Bit of a luxury now.

The Catholic Church literally has rape litigation insurance.

It’s a shame they haven’t gone completely bankrupt.

SirSnufflelump , in When a Coke Plant Closed in Pittsburgh, Cardiovascular ER Visits Plunged

Can’t say that’s surprising, I’m sure Pittsburgh’s overall health has come a long way since they shifted away from the steel mills and factories that used to fill the city. I’d say it’s hard to pin it on this one factory when they’ve been working to clean up the city for decades.

    A while ago I saw that UPMC had more employees in PA than any other company, which I thought was pretty wild considering Pittsburgh isn’t nearly as big as Philly

    some_guy , (edited )
    @some_guy@kbin.social avatar

    UPMC also covers out to Johnstown, Indiana, and Altoona

    Yeah healthcare is becoming the latest consolidate and merge into mega corporations sector.

    Probably not a good thing but what are you going to do :/

    bladewdr , in Wage demands hit record high: Average job seeker wants at least $78k

    Sounds like a cost of living adjustment to me.

    I’d also like to know where these surveys are being run, as the COL varies wildly between states.

    RooRLoord420 ,

    Same. Median income in my MSA is only about $34k, and I’d also like to see the education/experience breakdowns for this data.

    treefrog ,

    median here is 57k and there’s gross giant houses like two blocks away so it’s a pretty nice area

    but the cost of living here is reasonable. or was prepandemic

    SheeEttin ,

    It’s national.

    No, no, NO! It’s the drag people at the libraries that do this!

    Dicus added that it appears Ikeguchi acted alone. However, he said that authorities want to ensure that the crime was not affiliated with any broader hate groups

    It certainly was. The group you’re looking for has a few names, but the most common are “Republicans” and “GOP”.
