10·11 hours agoAccording to the figures cited by Wikipedia somewhere between 6% and 26%, maybe, but the latter is real hinky and relies on a study that I can’t even find named or specified as peer reviewed or not (great signs!) in a book that is specifically anti-abortion.
The 6% number is from a real peer reviewed study, though. And apparently the non-rape adoption rate is around 1%.

10·21 hours agoGiven weed’s increasing legality it would be interesting to follow a human cohort and see if this holds true for people, too. I’ve kept 50+ pounds off for like 10 years? now and have been a daily user that entire time, it’s interesting to think that may have helped.
