Obviously not a monolith, as your nod to Orthodox Jews concedes. Those guys still refuse to sit next to women on airplanes.
In general, I think it's fair to say that religious people tend to endorse more restrictions on what is acceptable behavior for women than non-religious people. #NOTALLRELIGIOUSPEOPLE

You have to be exceptionally dishonest to characterize the distance from the Huanan Market to the Wuhan Institute of Virology as "a few blocks". It's more than ten miles away, and the outbreak didn't begin at markets which were closer to the Institute.

Reply to comment by MurdrWeaponRocketBra in To better understand how cocaine hijacks the brain's natural reward pathways, scientists used single-cell whole-brain imaging to compare neuroplastic changes after cocaine or sugar water administration in mice. They found similarities in the region of the brain responsible for dopamine rewards by Abstract_Only
I get no kick from cocaine, and a couple of ADHD friends have suggested that I have it, but I took on online test that said I didn't. I'm in my late 60s, so it's probably moot at this point anyway.

It wouldn't surprise me at this point if they declared that the only textbook that could be used in Florida schools was the Holy Bible, and My Pillow airbags were required in all new vehicles sold in the state.

I've been to a couple of weddings, mostly listen to public radio. I've seen Deadpool, so I have probably heard "Low", but it didn't make an impression --- I just found it on YouTube, and it doesn't ring any bells. Sorry. I know lots of movies (and I do watch lots of movies) include music, but unless the songs are already familiar or you take notes during the credits, associating even a memorable song with the artist(s) that produced it is not a given.

I AM old, and I thought this was a story about new DeSantis mandates. I've never heard of Flo Rida the rapper or Celsius the drink company. I thought the Florida GOP was cracking down on the "woke" behavior of using undesirable words like "centimeters" and "celsius" LOL.

I had no idea that Flo Rida was a rapper and Celsius was a company suing him for breach of contract or something. I thought this was a joke about another DeSantis stunt, mandating that in-state temperatures could ONLY be cited in Fahrenheit.
Only reason I clicked, really.

The most religious Jews are Orthodox Jews, and they segregate the sexes during worship (and, as I mentioned earlier, insist on it when using public transportation as well), and have dress codes for women as well as for men. The secular world has none of that.
