They really like to parade around like they love science and are big brain chads. But all their "knowledge" comes from video games i don't know how to respond to that it's just dumb I keep finding myself in the position of explaining things I shouldn't have to explain because they're adam...

No it does not. I kept trying to point this out, and one of them just kept saying "I trust my own judgement more than I trust the people who make up speed limits" and I just more than engineers? ah, anti-intellectualism truly, the most fascinating of disappointments They really like to pa...

they tried to argue that speed limits are not infallible, so it was okay for them to choose what speed they wanted to drive at??? ... that doesn't follow ...at all No it does not. I kept trying to point this out, and one of them just kept saying "I trust my own judgement more than I trust the ...

someone tell me if i'm overreacting. but i really feel like since i spent the better part of the last seven months either in a hospital, in a wheelchair, or learning how to walk again, i deserve better than my friends justifying their speeding and driving high by saying "I'm a good driver.&quo...

"how can I gain more followers on my art twitter?" I ask into the void.

The void responds, "perhaps you should actually draw more."

"Sounds fake." I continue with my sparse postings.

Is it democratic if the future male generation votes to exclude abortion from universal healthcare, their reasons being "I'm not paying my hard-earned money for that simply because some chick didn't want to use protection"? Yes, though they would be silly. The abortion is after all much c...

Drive, like, 60 miles north of there and ask the same question.

That's roughly where I grew up. It's not like the most inclusive place but I don't exactly feel like I'm going to be hate crimed on a daily basis.

Got my appointment for the pfizer vaccine, as do all my housemates. Time to dab on this virus.

I do think there is potential for some common ground. Clearly there is one extreme, which says that abortion should be totally legal in all circumstances, not discouraged, available on demand and carried out at any point up to birth. And there is the other extreme, which says that abortion should a...

I genuinely don't understand the australian law on this one. Someone shares a link to a news site, which drives clicks to the news site and thus increases ad traffic on the news site - but facebook is penalized for it?

Right, I know that much. But I don't know how to look at all of the billion and a half sedans out there and choose one. What factors are you looking for in a car? Fuel effiecny? Reliability? Ease of repair? Are you looking to buy used or new? There are a ton of used Honda and Toyota sedans floating...

I'm gonna be shopping for a car starting today. I'm so anxious about it and don't have a clue what to do. All of my previous cars were picked out for me, and I'm so so scared I'll make the wrong choice and accidentally buy a bad car. What do you intend to use the car for? If you’re going to use it ...

The rapist should be arrested and imprisoned, but have the right to an abortion if desired (I believe all pregnant prisoners should have that choice). The victim should be given the option, if the rapist gives birth, to take the child in as sole guardian. If the victim does not want to, the child is...

Well. that is funny, because I'm feel like i'm reading the left-wing pro-life ideology I developed to support Pro-Life Communist Alliance on Particracy. I think it was more radical, but it was essentially : women have abortion because they receive no aid, so if we increase aid, we'll see less abort...

I never thought I'd hear someone say that no one eats food anymore, but.... Here we are

The Satanic Temple sues Texas over state’s mandatory sonogram requirement for an abortion, as well as the mandatory 24-hour waiting period following the sonogram, which it argues Infringe on members' religious beliefs They do such good work in the area of protecting reproductive rights. Good for th...

How would you stop Ragnarok? I'm thinking about using the threat of Ragnarok in the sequel to the fanfic I'm currently writing. But the whole point of Ragnarok is that it can't be stopped. Are there any other neat end-times-myths? Why not steal from GOW and use the Titanomachy? .... I might could w...

You've said that trans people are deluded, that trans children transitioning is evil, equated being a perfect woman with being a feminine mother, and supported social conservative dictatorships. You are both. No. There you go again. When I oppose the notion of transgenderism, I don't deny that peop...

TIL the vatican doesn't think I'm a woman.

And here in the UK over 60% of abortions are actually medical abortions, i.e. using medication such as mifepristone and misoprostol, so most are actually not even surgical at all. Some countries -- notably the ones that don't make it incredibly difficult for women to obtain abortion through long wa...

Mostly because there is no answer other than it being a double standard.

"Rape and invest" exceptions are typically very revealing to the mentality of the anti-choice movement.

I know. I find the fact that others are genuinely suggesting them to be really ethically fukt, personally. You think developing technologies to save premature babies who would otherwise die is "really ethically fukt"? I think that those contemplating forcing women to undergo what is likel...
