Ok, so this seems to be right-wing flavored Dem hate (as opposed to left-wing flavored as in the rest of the comments). I want to ask you, regardless of who introduces the impeachment articles, what do you think? Has Trump fucked up enough to deserve to be impeached yet? Regardless if you think it’ll actually happen, do you agree with trying to kick him out?
Of the handful I have, I think so. Don’t know what the consensus is, though
Hate when they curl and hate when the treatment is so poor you can’t read them or make out the art. I do like a lot of the newer premium treatments that don’t have those issues, and those are nice. But I specifically avoid “standard” foiling for singles, and I’ll even pay more in the rare case that foils are cheaper.
Oh, I agree. I’m very glad they’re not mutually exclusive! But neither imply the other, both are virtues that can be pursued independently, and I believe that pursuing both at the same time is very “good.”
So, the closest thing I’ve had to a childhood hero is Spock from the 60s Star Trek show. As I’ve grown older and more aware of of the world around me, I’ve realized elevating rationality to a virtue by itself isn’t enough to form a coherent ethos. In fact, I think individuals are actually very bad at rationality. Everyone who puts rationality on a pedestal, from Zizians to SBF to Reddit atheists to Elon Musk to Randian libertarians, is really just forgetting how subjective rationality can be.
I firmly believe that compassion is just as important as rationality when it comes to building strong, honest societies. You need both. We want ethics that are internally consistent, sure, but rationality and internal consistency don’t themselves give ethics purpose.
Putting aside the discussion about bodies and objects, the primary concern is consent - which also applies to objects anyway. Would you steal a dead person’s wallet “because they don’t need it anymore”?
Why wouldn’t you? There are very few instances in which one can assume they have consent over another person’s body.
Oh boy, here I go, back to Kerbal Space Program again
You sure the downer isn’t the person explaining the jokes? lol
Hah, sure, I’ll cop to that, you’re the downer for bringing up the rules lol
If you’re bringing the rules into this conversation, you’re misunderstanding the conversation
It’s not mirthful, it’s dreary and tedious.
Oh. Oh, yeah, I agree. Your other comments made me think there was some missed subtext.
I’m not used to thinking of Dune as a romance story, even if it has romance in it. I’ve gotten so used to Dune being a fabular cautionary tale
Vibe check: why do you think Chani left Paul at the end of part 2?
On the Experimental versions of the game, yeah
I’m not sure she’s a model in the “huge boobs” genre, but man, she’s a legend <3
Ah I see. Well, right on brother, and I encourage you to abandon fatalism and keep fighting ✊
