Reply to comment by SoggyFlakes4US in Cannabis use among pregnant women under different legalization frameworks in the United States by Sofie-Forsberggg
Ubiquity or normalization does not indicate that an action is correct, however. There are a lot of unknowns with cannabis which is why healthcare does not support its use outside of very specific settings, and pregnancy is known for being fraught with a lot of potential risks even without the addition of substances.
From my perspective, I support the use of substances if medically indicated, but pregnancy is not generally one of those times.

Reply to Words for negative concepts (e.g. "bad") are replaced faster and mutate more than those for positive concepts (e.g. "good") across Indo-European languages. As a consequence, different languages have highly dissimilar words for negative concepts but not for positive concepts. by smurfyjenkins
I’m curious if this reflects a net good or ungood effect overall?

May you cite the study indicating that exercise is non-inferior to medications? I have heard of CBT being non-inferior, but not of exercise, so I’m a bit doubtful of the claim although would love to learn more.

Of course there is no universal statement, but seeing a post from someone else, I realized that men rarely get complicated. Apparently some men get complimented so rarely they still remember ones they received decades ago based on the comments in the post I was reading

Would it relate to the country’s cultural belief in individualism? For example, in more collectivistic counties like Japan, there is actually very little looting after natural disasters, whereas it seems very high in countries like the states. To me it feels like the desire of self is excessive to the point of selfishness rather than self-reliance

Just say that you are not comfortable discussing personal matters?

I heard they get a nurse to scratch for them?
And I don’t think resisting the urge to scratch can be that bad?

It’s been found that babies that are neglected cry less because they learn that it no longer gains attention from caregivers, thus also implying that cries are sometimes literally for attention and nothing more as well, from what I have heard. Basically, scare the mother into attending to the babies needs or risk alerting a predator that will eat both the mother and the baby.
