  • You can totally be the nice guy in this case. Imma just call a spade a spade. I suspect that this account and those comments are intended to drive people to YouTube. The first thing people do when dealing with controversy is check a person’s profile. The first thing they will see on that profile is basically an ad and self-promotion. Maybe I am looking too deep into this, but when you read his comments the way he narrates, it kinda clicked about what the motive might be.

    I do totally understand your point. Mental health issues are absolutely real and should be addressed. How much we can do about that here on Lemmy is debatable.










  • I completely stopped taking that stuff as a sleeping medicine. I might take it if I happen to develop an allergy or something, but that is about it.

    Also, I believe the risk of dependency needs to be reevaluated for that stuff. For me, I trade one nights sleep for two shitty ones if I take it. So, it’s keep taking it, or just power through a couple more days of not being able to get to sleep after taking it. I personally believe this can lead to longer term sleep issues. (I do not believe there is going to be evidence or studies to back up my claims, but I haven’t really looked.)

    Sure, it could have just been psychological issues for me, but there were issues nonetheless.





  • I am a believer in the possibility of panspermia. Much of the stuff we see on earth is the byproduct of past supernovas. Those old stars probably had planets and some of those planets might have hosted early forms of RNA or at a minimum, started to form more complex molecules.

    I am not saying is not that earth was “seeded” intentionally or life as we know it developed on another world. It just makes more sense to me that the history of life is not contained strictly on this planet alone.

    The universe seems much more complex to me than the history of a single planet.
