Nuanced @nuanced.bsky.social · 25/01/2025I agree that the strategies I’m learning in analytical comp this semester would go a long way for a lot of people, but I’m noticing that even most of the students in the course learning the tools struggle to stand up to and challenge the ideas of the assertions of others. 120
Nuanced @nuanced.bsky.social · 22/01/2025Or they could like… Quarantine rooms, daily clean linens, rinse throat and sinus twice daily, mask, run air filters, clean hands when exposed to each other…. You know, the stuff that we use to reduce viral load and infection risk. 000

Nuanced @nuanced.bsky.social · 18/01/2025Viral infections also, importantly, increase your risk for cancer, Alzheimer’s and stroke. Some cancers completely rely on a viral infection. Also, COVID is known to attack the brain through the olfactory nerve cluster, hence increased risk of not only Alzheimer’s and stroke, but much more. 1220

Nuanced @nuanced.bsky.social · 29/12/2024So when you asked “then which dressing is LITERALLY thick vinegar”, the answer is that isn’t really a thing, but if you wanted to make it you could use xanthan gum to get something close. 120
Nuanced @nuanced.bsky.social · 29/12/2024The guy who said “you’ve invented salad dressing” was just making a “funny” by pointing out that many salad dressings are just mixtures with a vinegar base. He was not specifically saying that salad dressing is literally thick vinegar. 120
Nuanced @nuanced.bsky.social · 29/12/2024And they told you to add xanthan gum to it, as the fastest way to make any vinaigrette-like mixture thicker. 120
Nuanced @nuanced.bsky.social · 29/12/2024Literally any vinaigrette you want to thicken. The point is it’s a general rule. This is one of those situations where being more specific is less helpful. 110
Nuanced @nuanced.bsky.social · 26/12/2024Ya AI serves an educated workforce. So you must be a huge proponent of subsidizing higher ed? 100
Nuanced @nuanced.bsky.social · 26/12/2024Sorry but how does one build low cost housing? Repair low cost houses? Have a long conversation with one of your contractor buddies and I’m sure he’d tell you. 000

Nuanced @nuanced.bsky.social · 26/12/2024Unemployment in most of the Midwest is like 2-3%. America absolutely benefits from more workforce, especially red states. That corporate tax bump gets dispersed among rural schools and rural infrastructure. 400
Nuanced @nuanced.bsky.social · 26/12/2024Yeah they do traffic you here for $10,000, but at that’s the price you have to pay to escape servitude. And what country do you consider “safe” and why? 300

Nuanced @nuanced.bsky.social · 24/12/2024I’m not trying to say the girl’s story is bullshit. That’s just what the submitted evidence suggests. I’m just pointing out why there aren’t criminal charges **yet**. 100
