they’re always supportive of teenage pregnancy when it’s older men.

maybe people who had living wages would be able to afford more kids… but something tells me they won’t address that. they’ll simply take away birth control and abortion.

fucking ghouls

assuming they have an internet…

It’s already escaped it’s sandbox.

we didn’t just promise, we signed a fucking treaty. same as russia.

it sickens me that we didn’t stop russia on day fucking one

he’s also burning through the fucking arsenal. good luck defending taiwan after this shit show.

valid

though people claiming affinity to Antifa have been involved in armed attacks in the US.

anyone got a credible link to this?

No matter, you are loved, regardless. 😊

awww

edit: also, pedant isn’t really the word you’re looking for, I think.

edit2: fuck, now it is

this made my sunday

I’ve seen a lot of this over the last few years, esp since covid.

Part of it is: “That’s the most absurdly stupid thing I’ve heard in a while, let’s allow this to echo for a bit and maybe when the speaker thinks on what they said, they’ll reconsider.” But there’s a range, from that to grey rock - just deny the other party any kind of reaction, much less satisfaction. just be a blank space. grey rock is really useful vs narcissists and people who feel entitled (why don’t you just smile more).

we weren’t as sophisticated in this way when I was a kid; if your parent was emotionally manipulative or abusive, we generally had to just eat shit. kids these days can do research and find strategies, and I respect that. on the other hand, I’ve never had a problem just picking up the phone and calling someone, which my kid thinks is absolutely deranged. when I told her we’d call people on purpose for pranks - just dumb fun - she thought I was full of shit; pointed out all the bart-calls-moe as examples - well yeah that’s a cartoon…

it’s funny how times change.

oops had you confused with the other pedant

I feel religion and spirituality inherently play a large role

then stop calling yourself agnostic.

please, it’s embarrassing to us both.

fucking half cocked pseudo intellectual reaching for insults at the first 3 syllable word.

it’s telling that you think my reply was an insult, but that your flawed premises weren’t insulting, and intellectually devoid of any meaning.

of course you find it boring, most of this discourse has escaped you entirely.

No, i’m saying 90% of intellectual discourse is at least influenced by religion because it comes from people who are religious

why not suggest that all of intellectual discourse is influenced by primatism because it comes from people who are primates?

what a goofy argument.

and the idea that you posit atheists can’t enjoy poetry because the poetry relies on religious appreciation is hideous.

you religious nutbags will attempt to co-opt anything. it’s fucking gross. stop calling yourself an agnostic if you spout this shit, it’s like a nazi saying they’re strict socialists.

But you can’t get to the meat of most intellectual discourse if you dismiss religion, just like you can’t get to the meat of most physics if you dismiss math.

ridiculous.

Do you dare not learn all you can with what miniscule time we have here?

in fact I do, which is why I don’t waste times on unprovable, untestable, pointless garbage that’s overwhelmingly been used to manipulate the species.

But have fun with your skycake.

Yeah it’s pretty sad to see comments such as this. It’s a terribly unpoetic way to live life, cutting themselves off from 90% of the intellectual discourse produced during humanity’s history :(

bwahahaha you think religion represents 90% of the intellectual discourse?

ah jeeze that’s sad for you

fuckin spoiler warning please, some of us are on book 3

Bottom left was its own PC (It ran msdos 6.22. Excellent OS for realtime stuff!)

really? I used 6.22 back in the day - what’s it still being used for these days?

we’ll have a theilocracy

homey is being phished from internet 7.
