You probably don't mean to, but you sound like a classist jerk. Just because maybe you don't like it doesn't mean their bread is "disgusting". Pretty sure thousands of people eat it every day and are more than happy with it.

Weirdly there was a line in the article at first that said that since the last woman has been execute there were thousands of men who received the death penalty. It has since been removed.

I'm confused... are we saying we need to close the gender death penalty gap?

Last time there was an article here about it they called it a "clean sheets" pill.

Except that you presumably didn't inherit tons of money and privilege that your father gained from being a racist. That's the difference.

That doesn't really make sense though. The excuse that "well, murder is rare enough that it probably hasn't effected anyone at my dinner party" does not apply when we are talking about the internet. Yet people still make murder jokes all the time. Nobody is ever offended because that is just a phrase, it doesn't

That makes no god damn sense. Meat is always the most expensive part of any meal and vegetarian options are always the cheapest thing on the menu at any restaurant. I was vegetarian during grad school and I would make a weeks worth of stew from dried rice, lentils and beans plus some carrots and whatever was on

That's a stupid comparison though. If McDonalds serves only one vegetarian option, then every vegetarian that goes to McDonalds will get it. For non-vegetarians, they have dozens of options so the percentage of people that eat each one is much less than 10%.

It astounds me the number of otherwise reasonable people that believe in some completely crazy superstition like moon cycles effecting behavior...

That's the definition of confirmation bias. There is no data to back it up but it totally happens to you because you believe it does.

I checked on Wolfram Alpha and you would get about 300 times MORE of an effect by climbing a mountain.

Why do you just keep talking out of your ass. He gets paid by people who buy his music and go to his concerts. What advertising? Do you think he puts little commercials at the end of his songs or something?

Right, like Macklemore would spend his entire public career developing a pro-gay-rights image and then let his secret homophobia slip in one tweet. Totally believable and definitely that is what happened.

Yeah, in the context of everything else he has said and done I think it was definitely sarcasm. The idea that he has carefully constructed a pro-gay-rights veneer for his entire public existence but let slip his secret homophobia in one tweet is kind of ridiculous.

Yes, you could be making that up.

I don't have a dog in this fight because I don't really care about Macklemore, but before you shit on him like that you should really I dunno, google something. He is very anti-record-company and his album was self-produced and released. Again, not defending anything about his songs but please don't just make shit

You've never done something nice for somebody just because you knew it would make them happy? Your world view is bumming me out :-(

Because it would cause unnecessary freaking out of many people who aren't aware of the issues. You can debate about the implications of terminator seeds and big agriculture forcing small farmers out of business, but there is no evidence that GMO foods are harmful to humans. Clothes companies don't have to put a
