The only thing SSRIs are very good at is castrating human beings

"13 per cent of people who used antidepressants reported a reduction in genital sensitivity"

Imagine you put a medication on the market that completely stole the libido of millions of young people, and even worse it made orgasm and ejaculation impossible for some men, and even worse the effects are not completely reversible

SSRIs humiliate people. They are reproductive toxins.

Forgot to mention: I have my laptop connected to a USB keyboard and USB mouse

Within a few hours of taking zoloft I lost all sensation in my genitals and it's stayed that way for years

I've since gotten all my hormones tested (normal), and doctors are suggesting I cycle between TRT HCG & Clomid + Dopamine Agonists

I don't have ED. My symptoms are purely genital numbness/anorgasmia/failure to finish.

I submitted a complaint to the FDA last year. I understand they're currently being sued over this.

I don't understand how SSRIs aren't classified as reproductive toxins.

"The frequency of PPTGH among antidepressant users was 13.2% (93/707) compared to 0.9% (1/102) among users of other medications; adjusted odds ratio: 14.2 (95% CI: 2.92 to 257)."

data.table/R is definitely faster than Pandas/Python

If you search specific packages on LinkedIn the number of jobs is usually very small

E.g. tidyverse or dplyr is like 20-40 jobs. ggplot is 88. There's definitely way more than 100+ companies looking for R-heavy users.

There are hedge funds that like hiring people who know how to manipulate data in R using dplyr and data.table

Looking for a similar job where my desire/interest to spend all day in Rstudio is a value add to a business

How do I find jobs that use the R language? It's impossible to search the letter "R" on linkedIn or Indeed without getting a bunch of unrelated job postings

"R" is the only programming language I know and I can't find a job that uses a R because job search engines don't allow you to sort by skill

"R language" is the closest substitute on linkedin but the results are still a jumbled mess of jobs, some looking moreso for other skills (SQL/Python)

I know R-heavy jobs exist but finding them on LinkedIn is virtually impossible

The number #1 cause of car crashes is the presence of cars. Walkable communities have less cars, therefore, less car crashes.

The city grid is mainly to blame. The city grid of most American cities is uniquely bad - filled with streets which run at right angles to each other.

Take a look at Brussels vs Queens New York. Brussels had 5 road deaths in one year. Queens New York averages 75/year. That's almost a 7x difference adjusted for population.

Brussels has as an extremely irregular and walkable grid. Queens, like Manhattan, is full of dumb dangerous straight-lined roads and 90 degree angles.

The more irregular the grid the lower the traffic fatalities (assuming you're in a high-income country).

Why do suburbs have cul-de-sacs? They have curves, and They are useless as roads. They force cars to slow down, and disincentivize automobile traffic. Ergo, less cars, and your kids might get away with playing in the street without getting hit.

Rip up the grid and build a walkable community. It won't be cheap. Upzone and lower property taxes for any private developer that builds affordable housing on a walkable grid in your city.

There's only one place in the United States that's trying - Culdesac Tempe in Arizona. Northeast/California NIMBYs won't let you dare try to fight off their localism. They vote. Do you vote?
