Yeah, knowing how and why living things are what they are, how they came to function that way, that would only be useful to say, medicine, agriculture, anything to do with food, any industry dependent on organic products, oh and a few other things. Totally useless.

Based on the premise that we live in a completely fair and balanced market place. Which we damn well don't.

It's called being a human (who is not a narcissist).

The NRA makes damn sure that everyone is within hands reach of a gun. Why are they so opposed to ANY regulation at all? Because they want to make damn sure the criminals, the idiots, and the psychopaths have guns, so that everyone else will be so scared they will also want a gun. To them, this little girl's death is…

God damn the NRA.

You don't get out much, it seems.

Ok. where's this club? I'm all over it!

And some of think the same of you. Really, how dare she stand up for her rights?

My cat judges my cheap-ass effort to build shelves.

When my father was no longer able to breathe on his own, when his mind was nowhere to be found, we gave him a big does of morphine and ended it. However - we did it a lot later than we would have with a dog or a cat. Those last few hours were needless suffering, nothing more.

Sure, but she'll live out the last couple centuries on her home planet.

I would have thought opposite. MJ was always very odd, and Whitney seemed to be far less calculating or in control of her own life than Madonna. I've never been much of a Madonna fan (though, given how all over the map she's been, it's not surprising that I really like a couple songs), but despite all the antics, she…

Yeah, expect the vast right wing conspiracy is a lot more real than any "liberal media."

Hobbies: Photography, model trains, gardening, and recreational choking (but nothing weird!).

Fine. Sentence him to even more time.

So I got my first victory, on Transcendence (with Franco-Iberia). I can see some religious implications of the various victories. Transcendence merges human and alien - a pantheist approach, so Abrahamic faiths need not apply. Something more south Asian, perhaps? Other victories are all about defeating or escaping…

That's because you are stupid.

The Gamergate folks are overwhelmingly whiny man-children who are afraid of women. I'm a fairly hardcore gamer myself. I know these mouth breathers and they are not fooling me one bit.

Not really. Lots of folks are misogynist, almost no one really understands what irony means.
