So, while there’s no green, I think it’d be interesting to consider what’s going on in the yellow places. Its likely those areas are close to parity even if male suicide is (marginally?) higher.

Particularly India and China.

Edit: just India, China is on the higher end after looking into the actual numbers. Also, Grenada should show up as green on this map, but the creator chose to not include it. Admittedly, it wasn’t the only lesser Antilles island that was nixed so I’m not going to immediately call bias.

I’m not sure those numbers are as rosy for your argument as you’d think. You’re not considering the possibility of someone that does think it’s genocide and wholy approves of it. Which does exist, the “glass em all” types like my father.

I’m pretty sure it all balances out, because other polls are showing it’s still Israel with the popularity advantage even with the downturn.

It’s especially telling that desire to pressure the Palestinians to compromise is dropping faster than the increase to pressure Israel: it’s either people just becoming wishy washy or intentionally wanting the conflict to continue until Israel wipes them out. (Kinda wish Gallup didn’t nix the differentiation between those options tbh).

The polls are wrong as long as they keep clashing with electoral reality. Nate Copper’s article is heavy on poll data but flimsy on electoral anecdotes: a county election in 2020 and New York Elections with inconvenient data lopped off (The recent elections to replace George Santos).

The shift the polls are claiming are so seismic that it begs the question why this unprecedented shift is non-existent in basically every post-dobbs election. And let’s not forget the fact that these polls present other, nonsensical trends to like the elderly shifting hard to Democrats too: a shift that can’t easily be waved off by the usual “The shift is only in voters that only vote in presidential elections” excuse.

That’s the thing, neither? I get approved a certain amount of hours and it’s always 40 a week.

I’m going to keep an eye out in the market with these replies. I think I’m still ok if it’s just the possibility of reduced hours because I’m not entirely sure if that’s likely the case. I didn’t mention it in OP, but we already had an “approved” amount of hours to work regardless based on contracts. We also have timesheets regardless due to auditing requirements.

But it probably doesn’t hurt to be cautious.

I was possibly thinking this too? The email that announced itself mentions “the timing of this change–DATE–will be aligned to the implementation of EMPLOYER’S new payroll cadence and provider”. Also something about manual transactions being unsustainable under the company size.

I’d assume you meant just the 40 hours right? As far as I can tell I could still get overtime since it’s non-exempt either way.

Aw dang, I just joined recently too!

Well, at least there isn’t too much built up on this account anyway, it’s been an interesting introduction to Lemmy in general.

In my opinion, considering Tiktok’s algo they had the best circumstance to notify a mix of their users more aligned with the actual electorate. The fact they ended up with the worst representation of their user base when it came to confirming the suspicions of politicians says everything.

From what I read, the calls actually evaporated opposition to the bill.

Which, I’m NGL, if you’re worried about an app being used by a foreign adversary to encourage anti-social behavior in your youth, a bunch of people calling in acting like drug addicts getting their drugs taken away is only going to erase doubts.

It doesn’t help that they’d even be more justified when it’s known that it was caused by users getting pushed notified by Tik Tok to do it.

There was actually some news recently that these polls might actually be wrong here: apparently there’s a large amount of people lying that they’re Hispanic/young in online polls. This was discovered both because: 1. The “20% of youth are Holocaust deniers!” Poll that made the waves wasn’t reproducible and 2. There’s some BIG inconsistencies being found in many polls too, like some polls somehow managing to have a cohort of Hispanics that are 20% nuclear submarine engineers.

Basically, we might have a vicious cycle making polls wildly inaccurate here: youth (and Hispanics?) are harder to poll -> pollsters value the data more vs other demographics-> people lie to obtain the rewards being offered to get this data -> youth/Hispanics become harder to poll.

Polls usually can handle some “lizard man’s constant”, but everything falls apart if there’s significant lying.

I was reading exactly that actually: 81% of them refuse to vote for Trump if Haley isn’t the nominee. It’s surprisingly doable just from the primary numbers.

Edit: Also, Republicans nominated a literal Holocaust denier for the governor candidate. That’s gonna make that race A LOT easier and maybe effect the entire ballot there.

He is actually my critter, which is why I acted so viscerally. I’m usually more on top of these things which is why I’m a little bit embarrassed!

I think the biggest lesson tonight is it’ll be political malpractice if Biden doesn’t pour a bunch of resources into NC. For a closed primary, those exit polls are suggesting a huge amount of Haley voters are persuadable.

Ah damn, and of course this is the one article I lept to conclusions on.

Now that I read more into it, it’s actually a bit more interesting than that too. A concept of an AI real-time coaching the counselor by analyzing the caller’s behavior.

That is admittedly why I also said “or make a show about it”…

I’m actually not sure if Texas actually did stop the Feds from cutting the razor wire. I actually checked and it seems like the entire story just disappeared from all news after they made a lot of noise on it.

They won’t, but Colorado should still keep him off the ballot. The ruling was clearly made in fear of chaos instead of what was correct, so they deserve chaos irregardless.

Or at least make a show about it, like all those states did when Texas was told to let the fed agents cut the razor wire.

You’d think that, but humans can be weird with what actually causes introspection.

The hospital thing they just took the official line for. They actually mocked Aaron, or were actually grateful he took his own life thinking he was a disturbed individual.

Edit: If you want to understand the logic: they’re willing to turn a blind eye if they can “both sides” incidents so they can simply keep their position of “Israel has a right to defend itself, regardless if they’re not saints about it”.

The humanitarian aid story is getting them because Bibi won’t even let them do that! Hence why I mentioned the story sharing, since they know Bibi had made it clear he wants to starve Palestinians.

I feel like it was that gunning down incident with the humanitarian aid that ultimately tipped the scales.

I know I’ve been going on defense for Israel a lot recently, but I am kinda playing messenger boy as a neutral for being both here and some pro-Israel groups. The Michigan vote didn’t really phase them, that incident did. Seen them even sharing more info about how ridiculously strict Bibi is with aid in general.

But you did say 2008, you said it was a “similar” result. I’m not going to contest the anomalous nature, but the result itself is not similar at all!

My point is that I don’t agree, the numbers are only consistent for 2016/2020 (because turns out most people won’t waste time with an uncommitted vote when there’s a viable opposition candidate: Bernie). 2012 is a deviation and in the same way this primary did. The only thing different is the absolute number of votes altogether (in a state that has had insignificant population growth mind).
