Thanks for copypasting. It should be criminal to share a clickbait non-descriptive headline without atleast copying a couple paragraphs for context.

Check out the US tax treaty with ireland to figure out if it makes more sense for you.

(I think Canadian representation really expanded a lot, and European too, after Trump got elected and Reddit started sucking elon’s dick)

[-] FundMECFSResearch 2 points 3 hours ago

Less than Reddit, but still a fuckload.

I mean I guess the people who spend their times on english speaking internet forums has a large chunk americans, you know, given the US population is 300+ million, while Canada, Australia, New Zeland, Ireland and Britain don’t even make half the US population when added together.

Just backing up the point, I took a course on light pollution and this was the “common myth” our professor debunked on the first lesson.

It’s like halfway between a train and a tram and it goes partially underground.

I think light rail is the right name?

[-] FundMECFSResearch 18 points 5 hours ago

Yeah. On my city’s light rail I can literally leave my phone charging next to my seat when I go to the bathroom and no one will take it. In fact it’s common for people to do that.

The same dude who refused cancer treatment because he was convinced his “healthy” lifestyle and alt med bullshit would cure the cancer itself

“Risk wiping out an entire ethnic group”

[-] FundMECFSResearch 6 points 7 hours ago

Yeah European = Good is a lie.

But well, European = not financially contributing as much to Trump’s corpocratic neofacist ethnostate, so probably better if you were gonna buy the thing anyways.

Long COVID is costing countries billions of dollars in lost productivity and increased health and social welfare costs, economists say.

Five years on from the start of the COVID-19 crisis, millions of people are struggling with debilitating health problems that have decimated their lives and livelihoods.

The first cases of long COVID were reported in May 2020.

The OECD, a club of mostly rich nations, estimates long COVID could be costing its 38 members $864 billion to $1.04 trillion annually due to reductions in quality of life and labour force participation. This does not include the extra burden on health services.

The body of a disabled man was found in his flat in distressing, squalid conditions, just weeks after the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) wrongly removed his disability benefits because he had failed to return a claim form.

His sister, his only surviving close relative, believes he may have been left without enough credit on his phone to call for help, while he had not had enough money to fix his broken mobility scooter.

Susan believes the wrongful removal of his personal independence payment (PIP) played a significant part in his death.

She told Disability News Service (DNS): “He was already on the breadline, so I think it would have been devastating for him.”

She also believes DWP failed to make the necessary safeguarding checks before removing his PIP.

She has now warned that the death of her much-loved brother must act as a warning of the horrors to come if the government goes ahead with its planned £4.5 billion cuts to PIP.

Trump’s administration is dismantling disability rights and education. History has shown this can be a warning sign for all civil liberties

The termination follows other steps that appear to target and erase federal responses to the Long COVID crisis.

This news, also reported by POLITICO and the Substack Inside Medicine, represents another blow among several moves this administration has taken to diminish federal resources for studying and supporting people with Long COVID.
