That's what sociologists are supposed to do instead of claiming a "new" finding by switching cardiovascular disease mortality to other cause-specific mortality.

I wonder if they are sorting users by service level. For example, if you’re using a free account, they probably don’t spend many resources on deep searches and fake results as alternative.

I used ChatGPT for formatting reference list. All PMID they pulled are fake numbers.

Forsake Some, Fleece the Rest How U.S. Home Insurers Are Responding to Climate Change

NEW: Our @kennystancil.bsky.social details how U.S. home insurers are responding to the climate crisis.

Despite mounting damages, insurers are still raking in record profits by 1) abandoning people in higher risk areas and 2) hiking premiums nationwide.

1 = ⬇️ liabilities and 2 = ⬆️ $ to invest.

Related: "A 2022 study of formerly β€˜redlined' U.S. communities, which were cut off from financial services like mortgages for being predominantly Black or immigrant, found that residents were 53% more likely to have had a peaker plant built nearby since the year 2000 than in non-redlined areas.”

I hope they will consider taking a closer look at junior scholars, particularly those who, like many postdoctoral researchers, are facing a shrinking job market and increasing visa constraints.

As community spaces disappear, new CU Boulder research warns of health and equity risks - Institute of Behavioral Science A favorite cafΓ© goes out of business. A small-town library reduces hours. A neighborhood recreation center quietly shuts down. Across the United States, these kinds of losses are becoming more common....

From coffee shops to rec centers, #Thirdplaces are vanishing.
IBS Postdoc Yue Sun’s new research shows the decline is nationwide and unequal. Communities need these spaces to stay healthy and connected.

Why should you 🫡🏿 care about SNAP? SNAP recipients saw:

- Improved life expectancy
- Lower chance of incarceration
- Lowers chance of poverty
- Lived in better neighborhoods
- Higher human capital

SNAP keeps our neighbors fed, communities safer, and kids educated. Also people are HUNGRY. DUH!
