    Sometimes a picture is worth 100,000 names

    I find it funny mostly because people are now coming out on Twitter and saying all these people on the list didn't die from Covid-19. Let's face it... Half of these deaths are under Cuomo's and De Blasio's watch... If anyone is to blame, it's them. Where is their cute little cartoon at the...

    Why did Cuomo so badly mismanage the NY corona situation then play the blame card

    I hold those accountable who have control of the situation. Trump's not running The State of New York or New York City. They got some explaining to do on why they're stuffing infectious patients in with old people, though I reckon explaining won't be adequate enough. Trump has nothing to do with...

    Fox News

    Better to ask, which news organization do you think isn't doing this? :D (It seems they all are.) Anyway, if you want to know if you're reading news versus hearing an ideological sales pitch the way to test it is simple. Ask yourself: What action are they trying to get me to take? Am I supposed...

    Thinking of swearing an oath

    I'm not sure on all of that and there are conflicting stories and myths. But, we know for sure she was venerated by maidens, mothers with children, and hunters. So as much as that might not go together for modern minds it's simple enough to say all of those things apply. :D

    Thinking of swearing an oath

    Artemis was one of the classic goddesses that was venerated particularly during childbirth. Even devotees to her considered it only important to remain a virgin until married. In daily life, it would have been hunters and expecting mothers that would have paid the most attention to her.

    Thinking of swearing an oath

    Yes, but you'll never be a maiden unless I'm missing something. :D Secondly, she was a fertility goddess/mother goddess so I'm pretty sure she was down with the shagging and having babies. One could argue that rearing children would be a devotional act in her case. Feel free to keep your...

    Thinking of swearing an oath

    Yes, on oaths, and fine. But, the first criteria for an oath is deciding whether it is within your ability to keep. Asexuality is nebulous enough to include people who are asexual by choice, those who are not, and those whom just haven't found the right person. I have no idea which of those...

    The Coming One-World Religion

    What exactly does the panic related to covid-19 mean to you? A bunch of state governors holding most of us hostage at the behest of overweight middle-aged Karens for the public good using that as justification to "contact trace invade" our entire lives, get droned, and whatever. It's the beast...

    The Ethics of Profiting from Others' Failure

    It's not betting that the company is going to fail, so much as betting that the analysts are wrong. A company doesn't "evaporate" value in relation to a stock price -- there is a value of stock and an actual value of the business in terms of contracts, property, people, and other resources and...

    The Ethics of Eating Meat

    You can't possibly eat a healthy diet on vegetables alone. It's absolutely impossible without popping a ton of supplements to get what you're missing. I don't feel like turning my body into a science project so I eat a mixture of low-carb foods.

    The Ethics of Eating Meat

    So, because it's brainless it's OK to kill it? That's not really a justification... Harming a life-form is still harming a life-form.

    The Ethics of Eating Meat

    You get all the B vitamins you want from meat consumption. It's the most easily available source. :D

    The Ethics of Eating Meat

    Yeah, that's junk science there. Meat is perfectly healthy to eat, but what isn't is all the carb-laden junk that people generally eat to go with it. My diet is 20% carbs, the rest is meats, fats, fiber, and natural sources of the same. Heart disease and cancer are largely genetic as is diabetes...

    The Ethics of Eating Meat

    Do you have an ethical dilemma when you have a bowel movement? It's on that level for me. You don't like meat? Don't eat it. But, biologically we're fully capable of eating nearly anything put in front of us. It's also easier to get complete nutrition even you eat a smaller amount. A full plant...

    The Ethics of Eating Meat

    Yes, and we can stop right before the killing of our own species since that's just absurdity in the context of our subject. We are no where near outgrowing our food capacity ever and never will be due to the birth regulation baked into our DNA. Fertility rates decline naturally without...

    The Ethics of Eating Meat

    I neither consider it ethical, or to be lacking in ethics. It's eating. You kill millions of bacteria a day by breathing... You step on bugs all day when you go for a walk... You can't avoid killing, if that's the argument... You kill the plants to eat them if you are a vegan... Why is one class...

    What evidence out there crushes religious faith?

    It's merely a question of who is the bigger idiot. The person who believes science is a religion and the person who believes that their beliefs can be proven with evidence and justify their faith. A rational person realizes that science is not the tool for the job as it is incapable of...

    ( Joke section) Never tell a woman.....

    Well, it's not an ideal world. Certainly, you would want to leave, but who's to say if she hits you she's planning to stop? If she didn't want to get hit by a dude she shouldn't have swung in the first place as it was always a possibility. You owe dumb women nothing up to and including free...

    ( Joke section) Never tell a woman.....

    There is absolutely no reason for her to hit you, nor for you to take being hit without retaliation. I have a disdain against using violence toward women, but zero apprehension in self defense. Who knows? Next time it might be a baseball bat or a frying pan. I'm not saying beat the crap out of...

    ( Joke section) Never tell a woman.....

    If she thinks she can hit you that's already the problem. Testicles, have them.
