Great article, especially enjoyed the author's last two paragraphs, starting with 2 sentences: "The truth is that we live in a country where the system of food production is colossally fucked. There is a systematic campaign to trick people into eating garbage because garbage is cheap to produce.". Spot on.

I find your reply quite interesting. I'm especially pleased about the exercise, provides perspective and hope.

A general statement stated negatively, imo. Women who wish to promote funny women don't put pretty women down to do so. Have you watched an episode of Modern Family?

I have to say that I kinda find this refreshing... It's not about telling people they look ugly, it's about calling out the lame artifices. A lot of women invest a high % of income on cosmetics, clothes, shoes, waxing, mani-pedi, hair enhancers, breasts enhancers, lip fillers, line erasers, thigh smootheners, an…

A modern tale of heroism. Also, now you somewhat know what your wife experienced when she delivered your child.

It's cool she and her brother are able to send something in space. I personally wouldn't want a ring from an ex-husband orbiting the planet, but whatever works.

Where are my space age shoulder pads? (in the 80s I guess).

Lovely, thank you. Great work!

Fascinating! Can't vouch for accuracy, but here's a link:

I agree, the title should be changed to reflect that it's mainly from a European perspective, but the video is amazing. Maybe it does have to do with numbers, but some of those early wars, such as the first Crusades, the Ottoman Empire, were high in loss of lives. Need to watch it again in better resolution. Here's…

The picture peeked my interest in the story, but isn't the Empress from Never Ending Story kind of far fetched to head a topic about South American Guru teenage girl? OK, they're both young girls, so close.

I know, it's among the best ever!

Patrick Stewart guest-starring would embody the trifecta of awesomeness. Make it so.

I actually agree with the voting structure above. I'm 40 now and there was a brief window from mid 80's to mid 90's when the voice of women seemed emphasized, but it fizzled out with the Spice Girls era and atrophied upon Britney Spears' ascent (I do enjoy the aforementioned talents, it's a semi-metaphor to size-up…

Anyone know if this drug can be effective for those afflicted with MS? Will check.

If this is for real, I'm curious how your friend evaluates herself and her reasoning behind her "mind-action powers"? If you find your friend creepy (nice of you to standby and focus on the positive), how does she react when (or if) you are honest about creepy happenstances? Silver eyes, cool.

In so many ways, the future's so bright! (I gotta wear shades). I hope the 99.999% of us on the planet open to peace and prosperity for all (since we have the technology to do that and much more) can find a way to be more effective than the relics of past era still in power who wish to maintain the status quo.

Didn't know Shatner's masterful performance of Rocket Man was for the 1978 Science Fiction Film Awards. I love it more everytime I watch it. I hope he lives forever!

Agreed, it's a pointless expense. A gold wedding band is perfect.
