Um I never said anything about giving control to anyone… in fact I specifically said “voluntarily”… you seem like an angry person who is looking for things to be mad about. I’m not sure how you jumped to calling me a nazi.
I have thought about what I’m saying, have you? Unwanted pregnancies are something that by definition nobody wants. All I said was that this could be a way to address that, and you took that simple idea and ran to crazy town with it.
I’ll never understand people who complain about population decline. It’s a good thing. There are too many people here already. My thought on reading the headline was that it could be used in a different way. Everyone could be voluntarily sterilized, and then when they are ready and willing to have a kid they could use this new method to produce sex cells. No more unwanted pregnancies.
Sure. Anyone with nukes could give them to anyone else, but what happens after? If someone gave Iran nukes, then what’s to stop the US or France or somebody giving nukes to Ukraine or Taiwan. Ultimately it’s too big a risk. Even if two countries are close allies now doesn’t mean they will always be, and the nukes can’t be taken back once given.
Feeding the ego of those on top by ANY means necessary.
Pretending? I’m not gonna say vaping is healthy, but it definitely isn’t as bad for you as cigarettes. I made the switch years ago just because I wanted to see if I could stop smoking cigarettes, and within the first week or two my lungs felt noticeably better. I’ve been gradually lowering the nicotine level in the juices I use and will hopefully ween myself off vaping too.
All in favor of changing it to “as fast as possible” show your hands. From here on the phrase shall be AFAP.
The Renaissance was a time of a vast labor shortage. This allowed workers to demand higher wages, and it also allowed leisure time to study new things and make new art.
What future uses might it have? I have only ever heard that crypto’s main selling point is that it’s not controlled by any government. Why is that a good thing? I can understand that sanctioned dictators and money launderers would find that useful, but what benefits are there for the average person? You might be able to make a profit off speculation if you’re lucky, but in doing so you’re also supporting those dictators and criminals. If it had any other use it might seem less like a pyramid scheme, but I am fully unaware of what those other uses might be.
I don’t even care if I’m not rewarded. I just don’t want to be punished. They have made it impossible to have a simple life.
When I first moved in to my apartment, I became friends with one neighbor because I could hear him coughing through the wall and asked to buy some weed off him one day. He would occasionally ask me to take care of his dog when he was out of town. He has since moved and a nice old lady moved in. On the other side of my apartment is a special needs adult with care workers constantly coming and going, so not so much making friends anymore.
I hereby nominate “The Adjuster” for president. He now can not be prosecuted and all investigations against him are no more than political witch hunts.
Yes and he only cited the Bible to show that jews lived there thousands of years ago. He wasn’t citing the Bible to make any kind of religious claim, so this guy’s comment is completely missing the point.
People always point to the worst of the worst to justify the death penalty, but it’s not about them. It’s about us. I just picture people who support the death penalty the same as medieval peasants cheering on the gruesome torture and execution of a criminal like its some kind of entertainment. People need to do more introspection about what part of their personality they are feeding when they give in to the desire for vengeance. That’s not even taking into account that no justice system is perfect.
I got a bunch of free Coca-Cola once, and some dude at taco bell overheard me say something about “all the coke I have in my trunk”. He then tried to sell me some of his coke.
While you might be right, it is a civic duty to vote. Your mindset is too dangerous, which is why the right-wing trolls try pushing it. Voting even why you know it won’t make a difference is the most basic thing you can do to push back. Who knows what could happen if we get enough people out of that mindset. Simply voting, regardless of who for, is an event that every American should take pride in.
But… but it was the house that passed it… the house is currently run by republicans…
(Joke starts at 30sec.)
I don’t know much about investing, but i wonder if it would it be a good time to short those companies?
I remember a documentary about a famous northwest passage expedition that was never seen again. One of the inuit people they talked to during an investigation claimed they found a boat, and in the captain’s quarters they found a body in the bed with a big smile on its face. That would be absolutely terrifying, but apparently that’s what naturally happens to corpses when their lips and gums receed.
Who’s gonna take care of everyone when earth reaches it’s carrying capacity? Which is actually decreasing as we continue to ravage the planet.
Oh yeah who cares? It’ll just be all the poor who suffer and die.
