Even if you aren’t going fast, lol. I won’t forget the time a wasp hit my arm and got knocked into the car and was crawling around on me all dazed and confused.  Didn't sting me but sure made it hard to concentrate on driving.

It's hard to say.  The overall debt is 22 trillion, not the deficit.  And international deficits are complicated things that can be a good thing or a bad thing I think...  And honestly I don't know how we can run a 500 billion dollar a year deficit and only owe them like a trillion dollars anyway?  I don't think there…

Well, I mean the Bernie supporters were supporting the guy that could have beaten Trump. I doubt Hillary would be as bad at governing, but I doubted she could be as bad at campaigning, and she certainly pulled that one off...

Hm, yeah I think that you are right. Also we generally let them convert or whatever and were out to stop them being NAZIs but weren’t usually going out of our way to actually kill them, which is a big difference too. Good for us.

I would say it was not genocide, it was just dickish bombing with less than no regard for civilian casualties. Although I would say what we did to the NAZIs was genocide, we put a good effort into stomping them out as a group. If anyone deserved it it was the NAZIS IMO, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. I also wouldn’t call what happened…

Am I misremembering a magic space ghost George Clooney doing something?  Interviews, perhaps...

Sorry, I should have said some doctors. The vast majority of doctors certainly aren’t murderous lunatics, and are doing something approximating their best in a tough job. I agree there is room for improvement in current governance. I was just being pedantic when you said you were comfortable saying no one was trying…

I think in the comics people have been freed from the soul stone, the guy said it was a permanent exchange, but I guess he let them make a return when they were done with it.  He still seemed to keep her soul though, so they should complain to management IMO...

Those sound like reasonable precautions to me. I wouldn’t change any of that I think.

How many people do you have to watch die to know something is dangerous? To my knowledge there aren’t any convincing studies that show parachutes reduce mortality when falling, but I trust my anecdotal evidence enough to insist on bringing two. I approve of trials, and am glad they saved your mom. They can be great, I…

If it were up to me, I would actually speed them up. Excessive care is as dangerous as reckless disregard when you factor in the opportunity costs of slowing progress. You can feel comfortable saying that but I think you underestimate the crazy of doctors. Remember Cornelius Packard “Dusty” Rhoads? And that nutcase…

Are you seriously calling experimental cancer therapy safe?  Is it REALLY?  I'm all for it, but safe seems delusional.  I can't be the only one with dead friends...

Eh, it’s hard to say. Are people the atoms that make them up or the pattern? Most of the atoms change, are you the same person after a year? Does the same person wake as went to sleep? I’m not saying that your soul flies around like a force ghost spying on people, but dying and nothing happening forever isn’t obvious, …

Citation Needed.

Yeah, it’s obviously the like 100,000 hick coal miners running the US, not rich city folk like Trump and Friedman... Hell, Obama, he had a fillibuster proof majority, he didn't fix it because he didn't want to.  Poor rural people fear immigration because our wages have been going down our whole lives to fund the…

I imagine CEO pay is employee compensation.

I have no idea what I am talking about, but if you like your job and co-workers other than the overwork, you might want to look into your rights as an employee before you quit. If the country disallows overtime pay to encourage work life balance you might have some recourse against being fired for refusing to work too…

I like Warren a lot, and if she gets some momentum I would happily support her. I’m not a Marxist, but as a temporarily embarrassed millionaire myself IMO the Marxist thing would maybe lose Bernie the election against Romney or someone but not against Trump. Bernie did a pretty good job in Vermont to my understanding,…

I don’t know as he is denying those realities, he is just focusing on fixing income inequality and health care for everyone. I’m a white guy with Bernie bro tendencies, but I think that’s the right call. Helping the poor get money and good health care would disproportionately help POC and women, and it might be…
