The Jedward years overlapped with my time in Ireland. It seemed like they were everywhere and girls would turn up to see them at the mall or a supermarket.

Was the Jedward coverage unique out of recent eurovision coverage?

as people running his administration
I agree, but who are these people? Makes me wish Trump was a bit Hitler or Franco.
Is the Title IX reform team the same as the war in the Ukraine team?

Tax cuts are popular amongst many who pay taxes. I'm not sure it's only establishment Republicans.
Global energy prices were lower under Trump. Is that Trump or Biden?
Better economy with this Biden doesn't get my vote. I'd need a better economy with a better Biden.

persuadable Biden voters in a better economy
Is the economy better because Biden is a really successful articulate president, with engaging ideas that get to the root causes of problems, imbalances and deficits in our country?

I'd prefer teen pregnancy to single and childless at 40 if those are the only two choices.

I don't think Trump is Hitler. If he begins the deportation of American Jewry, I'd be surprised.
Biden strikes me more as Mr. Magoo than Mao or Stalin. Unless it's a act.

From my time in Ireland I'd add Savita Halappanavar's death and the ban on turf cutting.

Certainly. It's also likely a proxy for 'class'.
To @crushedoranges question then, I don't believe harlots would lead with their pornography credentials unless their targets are similarly credentialed. Any sex industry involvement is a disqualifyer for many men seeking a wife.
I think attraction to physical characteristics plays a role it can be more subtle than simply having two breasts are like two fawns, twins of the gazelle grazing among the lilies...
There had been 'research' that purported to show men ranked women as more attractive when the women's faces looked more like the men. In my own experience n=1 this is true. Though I did not notice / realize until several other people, friends, family drew my attention to the similarities. Then I saw it too.

More chicken in the US, which also seems to use more cereals. https://www.ers.usda.gov/data-products/chart-gallery/gallery/chart-detail/?chartId=58312
They optimize their revenue by using land that is best suited for the purpose. If beef weren't the most productive / renumerative use it'd likely already be used for something else.

It's things like this that make me suspicious that EA is especially beset with Dunning–Kruger.

This paper https://www.nature.com/articles/s43016-022-00589-6
has a nice visualization of the flows of inputs.

While I enjoy the image of chicken drives with mounted riders moving their herds flocks of chickens from pasture to pasture I suspect there are reasons this isn't done.
Absent cows it's more likely the forage would be consumed by other existing ruminants, bison, deer, elk, moose, etc.
I'm not sure I see evidence for this. Men and women are both created in the image of God.
Women historically had been protected or privileged over men in things likely to result in death like drowning on a sinking ship, or serving in combat.
This is the point that @omw_68 made to me in a private message that was perhaps meant to be a reply here.
... if a society has a choice between sacrificing a random woman and sacrificing a random man, most choose a man. And that's been the case for thousands of years based on looking at who is expected to do dangerous jobs such as military service or mining coal.
In other words, it's pretty clear to me that to the extent one had to choose who is seen as superior, at least in terms of value and at least in the West, women have always been seen as superior to men.

Much of the the forage would exist in any event.

100% of businesses that go bankrupt were started
100% of successful businesses were also started
I'm not sure this a a very descriptive or useful corralation.

Do you have any data? All the graphs and studies I've seen seem to show tfr declining with increased education / work outside the home.

Presumably we could see a bimodal distribution of fertility, though I don't believe we do. Most of graphs I've seen look more like a dose response curve.
You didn't read the M from Microsoft in microsoft xbox because it was only in my head.
