This is an amazing meta-analysis thread. A really good example of a crucial mood, the “No Really, Seriously, What Is Going On?” mood, the mood of true curiosity. I don’t know if they’ve found the truth, but I can tell they are earnestly looking.

Apparently this mood is on my mind and this is now a thread.

English fails us when we try to talk about this problem. People will always say they want to know the answer, but there’s a difference between wanting the answer and What Is Actually Happening, No Reallly What Gives?

Research is the byproduct of curiosity. What happens when you really want to know the answer?

In the past year, I’ve talked to many bright, curious, ambitious people who believed they couldn’t do research. That was me, not long ago. Here I share my improved understanding in hopes of offering a more empowering model of what research entails: kanjun.me/writing/resear

You are really out here posted this stuff but completely ignoring all the people who are suffering and calling for help on
@Twitch
because of constant racist and homophobic/transphobic hate raids huh? Remember last year when you said “hold us accountable”?

But you all are deadly silent when it comes to protecting your creators who are making YOU money Emmett. I called you out last year during Twitch Blackout and I’ll do it again now. You don’t care about “community” except for how it benefits you and your pocket.

If the problem is environmental contamination how do we explain non-obese people? Is the idea that they got lucky or that certain lifestyles can overcome env effects? If the latter then are we not back to lifestyle being the main determinant? Or it is just more difficult now?

I once again ask @eshear what is going on? What is the update on the racial motived raid happening to POC and also LGBT streamers. Luckily I was ready to deal with it, but not everyone all the platform feels safe to be on it or to even stream on it at this point. ????
