#bias sampling

[alifelearned]

Last week the London Police Department announced that they were going to be releasing a public survey. On Monday no one was able to find the survey so I made an inquiry with the media officer of the LPD. She directed me to an analyst who told me on Tuesday that they "cannot distribute the survey to individuals who express interest". When I asked for further explanation she insisted that they were using random sampling and thus taking feedback from interested parties would skew the results. She failed to account for the fact that they simply dont have the capacity to do a true random sample, consequently meaning their results will be skewed no matter what.

This is a bad idea but:

[strangesmallbard]

please reblog to increase sample size!

EDIT: i definitely should have included some sort of “multiple of these” option, so if that applies, you can click “yes and [something else]”!

EDIT 2: feel free to also include your location!

*Meaning: When did you stop wearing a mask to a majority of your public activities? Wearing a mask when you feel sick or very rarely for specific events/reasons counts as “stopping”

ʚ thinking about emo bf kai who shyly asks you to go to concerts with him despite your different tastes in music but ofc you'll go with him so he's not alone<3 ʚ emo bf kai who blushes immensely when he sees you dressed up in all black and studs, even spraying your hair to give you that fresh scene look. he's never been more in love ʚ emo bf kai who has that secret of collecting stuffed animals but you don't mind at all, even naming them all with him <333 ʚ watching him headbang to his favorite bands has you staring in awe. and when you join him it has the both of you giggling until you're laying on the floor of his dark bedroom ʚ emo bf kai who runs his fingers through your hair, his dangly bracelets getting stuck in it every now and then but you don't mind at all. nothing is better to him than seeing you enjoy his hobbies more than he does~~ ʚ emo bf kai who sits alone at school since he has no friends, but there you are sliding into the seat next to him with your lunch. you're completely oblivious to the stares everyone gives you both but as long as you don't mind, neither does kai :) ʚ you both have opposite aesthetics but kai can't help but feel so intrigued by your interests and you feel the same way about his! you both exchange music recommendations all the time and find yourselves enjoying each other's interests :( so cute ʚ when its time to introduce him to your parents/friends he's internally freaking out, contemplating if he should dress "normal" for the occasion but you reassure him that he's perfectly fine just the way he is <3 ʚ your parents are skeptical at first from his quirky appearance but the second he speaks they immediately fall in love with him. then again who wouldn't? ʚ you've never felt so lucky to be with someone so kind and open-minded as him (,,>﹏<,,)

unfortunately im really not beating the transmasc puppy stereotypes out here. wanna be the cutest little pup you've ever seen in the whole world. wanna have sleeve paws and oversized hoodies and a dog bed we keep on the living room floor. want a collar with your name on it. i want my dog bowl to be pastel blue and for your favorite hobby to be putting your fingers in my mouth. wanna be mounted and made to whine & bark as you hold my leash. i want to be the little spoon after as you pet me and tell me what a good, pretty puppy i am.

anyway that poll is stupid im making a new version

[aradia-queen-of-the-sheep]

Saw a poll a while back about which homestuck kid is most likely to be cancelled and it got me thinking. Obviously if we're going for cancelable characters almost every single one of the trolls is easily cancelable. So.

Nepeta and Kanaya are excluded for being unproblematic, murders nonwithstanding. Feferi and Aradia are included for being the dictator in training and the grim reaper, respectively. Tavros included for being cringe. I think the rest speak for themselves.

My bisexual girlfriend has observed that there are more frog enthusiasts among bi people than in the general population.

"A lot" could mean: you often seek out pictures and videos of frogs or information about them, you go looking for frogs in the wild, you have pet frogs, or you buy frog-related items.

If you're not bisexual but are some closely-related identity, you can decide if it makes the most sense for the purposes of this poll to align yourself with bi people or everyone else.
