"Masculinity" isn't toxic on its own, "Toxic Masculinity" is a specific thing on its own.

It's using the measuring stick of being "masculine enough" or "enough of a man" to harm someone else.

"Lemmy" doesn't ban people, but certain instances might.

aka, if I get banned from Lemmy.world, I am not banned from Lemmy, just from lemmy.world.

Here's the link they probably tried to link:
https://www.cbc.ca/radio/whitecoat/the-dose-noise-health-1.6889724

It's from the same news source as the image they linked, and it contains the line "If you live in a big city in Canada, chances are you regularly hear noises that are harmful to your health."

But, I am suspect of this poster. That URL for the picture seems sketchy, and using a sentence from a 2-year-old news story is also odd as hell.

While opt-in polls cannot be assigned a margin of error

Basically, these numbers don't really count for anything.

Fuck the hellhole that is Alberta, but they don't have the most cases in Canada.

Everything we do is kinda shitty and bad. My shirt was bought from a mega corp that kills local economies, a sweat shop or child labour was probably involved at some point, the cotton in it might have been farmed using slave labour, I could go on, but we both know that the clothing industry is shitty all the way down. I can't go to work naked or grow my own cotton, so I try to be less-bad in other ways. I choose to eat in a way that’s less-bad for the environment, and doesn't directly profit from killing animals.

No, people like to pretend that using linux is hard for some reason.

It's not 2003 anymore.

People use them to make their generators power their homes, by adding power into an outlet.

So, whatever time of year power outages are likely to happen in this area.

I think that the points that DWS brings up are quite good.

If we ignore all of the "rights and freedoms" based arguments, "Why are we spending money to forcing people into treatment, when people who actually want to get into treatment can't, because of a lack of money?" is still quite damming of the program.

If someone wants to get clean, they are much more likely to actually stay clean than someone who was forced to. It's not a one-and-done process. If you don't have supports and tools set-up, relapse rates, even if you want to be clean, are quite high.

If the goal is to reduce the amount of drug users, putting the money to help people who want to be helped would go much further.

If a savory dish doesn't have msg, it's probably wrong.
