What happened to the “nothing to hide” argument? It was eviscerated. It is not a good argument.

Worth it. Cars are an ongoing cost, and don’t bring joy if you’re not into them. I think you made the right choice, you chose joy.

That makes God a rapist who didn’t get consent.

If we take the story at face value, he did get consent.

And Mary said, “Behold, I am the servant of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word.”

• Luke 1:38

Trump: “I stopped the genocide.”

Us: “You made the genocide worse!”

Trump: “Worse? Or better?”

Oh no, I never said that they are only separable by time.

You may not have said it, but you typed it. Lets look at the replay.

And you can equate religions and cults because the only difference between the two is time.

It can’t only be time that transforms the one into the other

I agree with you here.

Religion, cults and sects are as concepts interconnected.

Oh, for sure. These ideas are related, but to claim that they are only separable by time is disingenuous.

And you can equate religions and cults because the only difference between the two is time.

There is more difference than time. Cults require a charismatic, authoritarian leader, religions do not. One can be religious and autonomous in practice.

Religions can be open source and decentralised, cults cannot.

The business logs how often you use the game. They use it as a metric of engagement. If everyone breaks their streak, their marketing department has a melt down.

the owner has to hire someone to clean it off and that comes from my rent.

Rent has little to do with maintenance. If it did, it would mean that higher rent lead to more maintenance. This is not the case. Landlords are incentivised to maximise margins (rent minus expenses). If they don’t have to pay for maintenance while getting a certain rent level, then they will opt for not maintaining.

Rent level is the maximum level that landlords will set to drain from their tenants. It has little to do with the maintenance or condition of the residence. There are plenty of examples that show poor housing standards being expensive.

The solution: Land Value Tax

Fellas, is it gay to want a woman that wants you?

Idk what it is about masculinity that loves submissive women

That’s insecure masculinity. Men who are secure don’t need a woman to be submissive. She will be with him by her own volition because she feels safe with him.

Reminds me of this video:

WARNING: Birds probably hurt.

Therapy is maintenance (at the very least). If you haven’t ever been to therapy, you’re driving around without an oil change.

I ain’t saying it’s easy. Sometimes it’s simple, but simple doesn’t mean easy.

Yes, because there are ways to avoid and navigate major depression. Better to learn them in times of peace than in the middle of war.

I tend to observe other cyclists when I’m driving.

So I guess I’m saying that I’m surprised by the results of this study.

That’s because you’re using anecdotal evidence. If you are looking for cyclists breaking the law, you’ll find it because of your inherent bias. This is precisely why studies are needed to back up what we think may be true but aren’t sure of. We have to cut away our biases.

Dude, there are whole industries based on cutting down trees once they have grown.

What are you smoking? … can I have some?

Very small. In fact, the test subjects happened to have the same names as the researchers. What a coincidence.

It took two years to do the transformation. Do you think it’ll be difficult to do another transformation when the time comes?

You’re 41. No one is stopping you from buying and eating gummy snacks.

Don’t let your dreams be dreams.

Some of those that work forces are the same that burn crosses.
