Can’t link the tweet directly because Kyle Kuzma himself isn’t an approved account but here’s the link to his tweet: https://twitter.com/kylekuzma/status/1727710817640931481?s=46&t=fF2m8uUhUYtOpmLXwXxffQ

Great look from the other face of Washington’s franchise, publicly supporting good guy Miles Bridges after all that he’s gone through recently (one felony count of causing harm to a parent of a child and two felony counts of child abuse)

They are both from Flint, Michigan

[–] mrnunsfan@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (2 children)

They should both be playing for the Tropics

[–] flintmichigantropics@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I don’t want them on my team

[–] der_ninong@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

kuzma, birdges, and 3-time nba champion & olympic gold medalist javale mcgee would be great with the tropics

Jackie moon is the best thing to come out of that part of town.

Lead does make you crazy

[–] coacoanutbenjamn@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (2 children)

It’s actually insane how much lead levels correlate to how much crime is committed in an area

[–] janitorial_fluids@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

The levels of lead in gasoline at the time are thought to be one of the main contributing factors as to why we had an explosion of serial killers in the 1970s

[–] Shhadowcaster@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I see this a lot, but idk how well supported it is. The insane crime rates and changes in crime level from then to now are some of the most studied societal phenomenons and there have been a shit ton of theories. I don't think there is anything approaching a consensus.

[–] Tusked_Puma@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (4 children)

Surely that’s more to do with socio-economic factors being associated with crime and also lower socio economic areas to get worse water

[–] nrag726@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Probably, but the lead is just a correlation, not causation

[–] angelansbury@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I'm tempted to agree with you but then I think about all the crime that rich people do that we just don't call crime in the same way.

[–] ablackcloudupahead@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Lead exposure lowers IQ and impulse control, so it definitely plays a part

[–] ijustbrushalot@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

You'd be surprised. The lead paint and gas correlation holds up to what they're saying well independent of socio economic status. Or at least it did when I studied this 20 years ago.

[–] JRsshirt@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Same here but studied it five years ago
