Homemade lunchwrap: Lavash bread Peppers, onions, and carrots, salted and oliveoiled and roasted for an hour (peppers flayed when cooked) Black olives...
I’ve done that, but I can still see it when logged in. This is either because the way permissions work makes it impossible to have a thread that only ...
I have long agonized over that issue, and you are to be commended for your suggestion, but I don't think those threads should be amalgamated. I often ...
During the period of the swift's seasonal residency in Western Eurasia (that's May to September), I prefer the weather to be mostly warm and sunny aft...
I don’t know much about Christian theology but this doesn’t look right. Jesus is God in human form, and not God tout court. When Jesus died, God as su...
That’s pure theology, so it probably wouldn’t make a good OP. I suspect that Trinitarian Christians have several elaborate and subtle answers—and my g...
I’m not done here. I’m a member of some online book groups and there are endless stupid arguments pro- and anti-Kindle. I don’t intend to repeat that ...
Of the books of his I’ve read, the Bas-Lag books have stuck in the memory the most, and Perdido is the first of those. I think I’ll probably re-read i...
Yes. However, I’m wary of answers that go something like this: lonely young men are being turned into misogynists by reactionary patriarchal ideology,...
Yes, that makes sense, although I doubt this is always present before joining up. Intuitively I’d expect some of them to join while still thinking the...
Predictable oldies that I’ve posted before,,, Great use of Fripp and beautiful spicy harmonies. I couldn’t get tired of the Roches. https://youtu.be/E...
I think that in the first two Titus books, the plot is crucial, an indispensable skeleton. With Perdido, it seems like the story either doesn’t matter...
I didn’t like the way it degenerated into a monster hunt. The world building was great, the plot, not so much. It felt a bit like an action movie: fas...
@"Benj96" @"fdrake" This open access paper, published last month, is quite interesting: The Rage of Lonely Men: Loneliness and Misogyny in the Online ...
That's the philosopher and mathematician Hypatia. More details about the decision here: https://thephilosophyforum.com/discussion/49/icon-for-the-site...
Close to right-wing nut job territory? I don’t think so. What’s better than submitting to the cancelling mob with self-censorship is thinking things t...
It's political correctness gone mad! Is it another example of what Adorno referred to as pseudo-activism, where what matters is the badges you wear, t...
But this goes against the idea that we seem to have taken for granted, that misogyny is a result of a lack of success with women. What you’re saying h...
So the interesting thought here, which I think someone else has expressed in this discussion already, is that what is lacking is shame. In a closely-k...
Nietzsche could have been an incel, but he wasn’t that boring. It’s partly thanks to him that we can identify this certain kind of resentment (ressent...
A scary thought. But then … how and when does that happen? When the person in front in the queue is old and slow, I have ageist-lite thoughts that I n...
Good analysis. I suspected it was a different use, but it wasn’t clear in my mind until you clarified it, thereby hitting the nail on the head and the...
No, it’s not about moralizing, it’s about understanding what is going on. This is explicit in the OP. It is important what the reasons are, because it...
I can relate to a lot of what you say. What disturbed me were the intrusive alien thoughts that I disagreed with, the misogyny in embryo. Maybe you’re...
The OP need not comprehensively describe or define incels, since it’s a pretty well-known subculture notorious for its abusive and sometimes violent m...
