Why didn't people in the middle ages just avoid the plague like the plague? Were they stupid?

Growing evidence points to link between autism and wildfire smoke

People have been burning wood since time immemorial

True and many millions die from it every year, most air pollution deaths are from woodsmoke, when we did it 10,000 years ago on the veld a fire was small and isolated and well ventilated,

FF to modernty, climate change enhanced wildfire, billions of acres going up and a population of 9 billion, might be a concentration issue?

Perhaps you haven't looked at wildfires ? , houses sheds and barns full of plastic, paints and farm chemicals, fields full of plastic used for weed suppression, vehicles and their tyres ignite and burn, including the metals etc

Then the aftermath is that toxic shit going into water supplies next time it rains

EVs don't have to mean the stupidity of ecars, theres ebuses, escooters and ebikes. That latter two can be charged at home with solar panels, inverter (and battery for lights at night etc)

Rising teenage pregnancy among young teens in Philippines

Jump

hanrahan @piefed.social 2w ago

Has nothing to do with old men from the western world, it's young Fillipina's, from The Philippines, often rural (provincial).

Christian fuckery is ubiquitous and gets you a lack of sex education and access to birth control. Teens still want to fuck.

How do you guys get around/to places?

Deliberately lived car free for 4 yeaes here in Australia, choose to live somewhere with better public transport and walking distance to shopping/services. Had a large shopping centre with doctors, dentist, chemist, groceries and a bazillion speciality shops across the road. Walking, PT, an e-scooter and bicycle were all we needed. I worked from home, my parter used her e-scooter for her 4km round trip to work. Busses really suck, they're what cities use when thy have run out of ideas, we used the light and heavy rail often.

Fuck cars :)

Once again, more people were killed by cars on LA streets than by homicide last year

. I hate cars but most car fatalities are accidental not intentional.

Is it ? Using that logic, a drunk driver killing somone is an accident.

The continued city design of enshrining cars as the primary mode of transport is intentional, people voting for politcans who are car brained is intentional, driving a car knowing there is a not insignificant risk of killing or hurting somone is intentional. Knowing this, a traffic death is really just manslaughter

Back in the 70s the Dutch rioted to remove cars from streets becase they were "accidentally" killing children, that's the appropriate response to deaths of chikdren.
