Holy shit I gotta try this oats in spring roll mix thing. Thanks for the tip.

1·3 days agoI wrote that over three hours ago, not long after you commented. It was still up when I responded.
You should probably read it. It’s informative.
Yeah, and I just like the texture more. Sometimes I rice up parsnips with the quinoa for a pretty interesting texture/flavor. You can follow sushi rice recipes to prep it. I don’t cook the parsnips.
For filling I matchstick any combo of carrots, cucumbers, SPINACH, beets, peppers, whatever, and let 'em marinate in a tiny splish splash of tamari and sesame oil. Add avocado when rolling. Meat is optional but encouraged, if that’s your thing.
My smoothie:
1 banana
1 handfull of fresh spinach
2 big spoons of greek yogurt
1 big spoon of cashew butter
Squirt of lime juice
Enough almond milk to blend
Ice
optional: protein powder and collagen
Add-ons: berries, matcha, mango, salt, flaxmeal, coconut milk, chia seeds
Ooh good to know. I make a lot of quinoa sushi rolls, too. (also with spinach)
Got it, adding iodine to my smoothie.
I toss in greek yogurt(high in iodine) for that goodness and some citrus to get the iron from the spinach.

52·4 days agoI’m not going to validate my right to be compassionate by proving I’ve known shit people and had shit experiences.
More to the point, I believe you’re referring to sociopathy and psychopathy when you talk about a lack of empathy, but that’s old science. Newer research shows improvement, especially with early intervention, in treatment of antisocial personality disorders. Psychiatric treatment of comorbities shows overall improvement in symptoms. And, recent studies on ASPD in neuroscience reveal that cognitive empathy isn’t a sliding scale, it’s a gamut, and it’s not even consistent within an individual. So IF someone has ASPD and we’re not just going to kill them, the best option is still evidence-based care.
It’s difficult to diagnose cognitive empathy disorders at a young age, but it’s possible the kid has a conduct disorder — which, along with ASPD, almost certainly has genetic groundwork but is strongly tied to early cognitive development (how he was raised,) and family history.
Regardless of what he has or where he came from, restorative justice is still more effective across the board socially and economically. I think of the worst people I’ve ever known when I consider my view of justice, and I still believe in restorative measures. I’m not only compassionate because I have empathy, but because evidence shows corporal punishment increases recidivism, exacerbates and often causes mental health disorders, and is ultimately an expensive monolith to an outdated belief in justice that isn’t based in fact.
Do I want every lying, cheating, violent piece of shit to face justice? Hell yeah I do. But I want that justice to be JUST and actually fix society instead of taking the bad and making them worse.

111·4 days agoSure, let’s take a messed up kid, who had no choice in how they were raised, with almost no worldly experience, who’s brain isn’t even fully developed yet, and throw them into a costly system almost guaranteed to turn them into a repeat offender.
I’d rather see people bitch about a lax system and see more reformed criminals than feel the short term thrill of retaliation.
Before I saw I sub I thought this was a forbidden snack geology exhibit.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Have you ever either taken part in or been targeted by an internet hate mob? For what reasons and what happened after?English
8·6 days agoNot that I know of. I walked away and it was anti-climactic. I believe one is living in a broken down van and thinks Elon Musk talks to him directly, not that poverty and mental health issues are anything to make fun of.

9·6 days agoI was the target. It was an IRL one that moved to the internet.
I tried to get people to use each other’s preferred pronouns. The hate didn’t really ramp up until I brought up facts and evidence.
It had all the elements of your standard hate mob, with trolling, doxxing, threats, and all that.

3·7 days agoYou don’t know it because that’s not what you said.
According to the latest research on PubMed and Statistics provided by UNESCO, women do not outnumber men in any stem position except life sciences, which includes healthcare nurses. No one disagrees that the gender gap is closing, but to say women hold more positions than men because of demographic goals is wrong as hell.

31·8 days agoCurie was recognized in her lifetime, she won a ton of awards, including two nobel prizes. The enormity of her contribution to physics and chemistry compared to her co-winners has been slowly revealed over time, but she was considered a brilliant scientist during her life.
A better example could be Lise Meitner who, while in exodus from Nazi Germany, essentially figured out what fission was just by learning about the results of early nuclear physics experiments. But when people list the big names in nuclear physics, she’s not one of them.
According to a number of sources on STEM statistics worldwide in 2025, women still occupy less than half of all STEM positions. A higher percentage of female nurses is why there’s a majority in “life sciences.” Women hold fewer higher level/higher paid positions than men in all STEM fields as well, and minorities are still demographically under-represented across the board.
I’m just impressed you engineered a snow fort with a door that opens.

Those drugs?
So… half a dexadrine and three joints, the bare minimum for a night out in Canada.
