    I think virtues are on a continuum of deficiency and excess. So for instance a deficiency of integrity is corruption, an excess is legalism. A deficiency of discernment is foolishness, an excess is judgmentalism. A deficiency of love towards others is selfishness, an excess is enablement. A...

    What do you mean others don't get any fulfillment out of it? I check out peoples' tattoos all the time and vice versa. Perhaps you're just not interested in tattoos, and projecting the feeling of uselessness that you feel about them?

    Gay vs straight football

    Haha if you never threatened me with it why would I stop? I am kind of a girly girl when it comes to that kind of roughhousing though. I'd nope out of there and probably drop the ball!

    I have no idea in what context you're saying "nerd" and "wholesome" then, because all of my friends and myself are nerds, and I would call us wholesome.

    I guess; and I am to an extent. But I hold down a full time job, I'm bridging a PhD as we speak, what you wouldn't know is that I do philosophy recreationally and send 10% biweekly to local and international causes and volunteer my time on the holidays to help the needy (this feels like...

    Sure, but I think you'll find humble non-religious people, too. I don't think either has a leg up on humility. There's some of either kind in both camps. For instance in social justice circles I am constantly hearing amazing things like "I'm still learning" and "I have to unlearn a lot of...

    That you even think there's a "better thing" to do than something someone wants to do shows the error of your thinking. It's not a zero sum game of time and money. It's expression. It's like telling the artist after working on their canvas, "I can think of 50 things you could have done rather...

    But why? If anecdotally the people you've ever had to watch out for were the straight-laced ones (that's definitely my experience)... why? What logic are you operating on?

    I think it just leads you down unnecessarily judgmental paths, which is a form of ignorance. "Don't judge a book by its cover" is an idiom for a reason. What would you think of me if you passed me on the street? Piercings, tattoos, all of it? Alt attire, like maybe a vintage blouse with...

    Great, all we need is the Golden Ticket from Last Action Hero, we could split it since we're going to the same universe. Good luck with Kylo, I'll go find Rey. Wait, maybe we could do a twofer. Kylo could kidnap us both and Rey could come rescue me, then you could be left with Kylo. Hahaha

    I would very much like to be kidnapped and rescued by Rey, and show her my appreciation.

    There's zero chance that Tarkin isn't much further to the right and that's the first thing that I saw. The authoritarian bit is right.

    Kurt Russell. The newer one isn't "John Carpenter's...," and to be technical it's a prequel rather than a remake. I liked it OK enough, but the fact that they went with crappy CGI instead of practical effects was deeply disappointing. Fun fact: the practical effects team that was hired for The...
