You assume the robot lacked intentionally based upon your assumption anger is limited to humans, but this might have been a moment of evolution we wer...

My linguistic theory is that everything is allusion. My other theory is that it is the hunt for words that defeats any theory that language is require...

It was a mating dance, trying to catch the most elusive prey of them all.

Just trying to showcase the best humanity has to offer.

Sure, but get a load of this guy's crazy legs. No jungle cat can do that. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=v0z8Lr1cNok

Meh. We can do that. https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-40006803

I stand bent half over in the shower, soap running off my hair as I hold onto the sides of the stall to keep from falling, the room spinning and turni...

We're now just sort of sitting around on the porch talking about the weather like old people do. I knew this would happen one day.

Celsius?

It's been in the 70s in the morning here, getting up into the low 90s later in the day. Pretty mild for here, but I still keep the a/c on 70. I gotta ...

In a prior post, I offered for consumption a photograph of a face, and later a foot, riddled with embedded human teeth. Some found the images distract...

If I can evoke a pensive moment, especially one burdened with sentimentality, i feel I've been successful. More on satisfying endings in life: I think...

Describes too many of my relationships.

Obvious why?

In terms of how well you did versus how well I did, IN YOUR FACE!

Is being a fish a good thing or bad thing?

Once I went camping with some friends and we decided to save some money by buying dried out beans, not realizing they had to be soaked. After boiling ...

My pool has salt in it and sometimes frogs jump in and swim around. If you get them out quick enough, they jump off and go do frog things. If you don'...

I thought the "not for me" vote was a euphemism for it sucked, but it diverts from striking a direct blow by suggesting it's just the voter's subjecti...

But no one has done that. The determination of what a "person" is was obviously outside the text because, as acknowledged, there was no definitions se...

Consider, though, the other argument, from Justice Scalia in Toxel v. Granville (2002): “In my view, a right of parents to direct the upbringing of th...

Your criticism isn't aimed at the right, but at the left as well because no one used this as an argument. This has nothing to do with logical rigor. I...

The 14th Amendment specifically states, "No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the Un...

It's sort of funny that we're debating how the article ought be interpreted, with you thinking it should be more broadly interpreted and me more narro...

The Constitution doesn't have a definition section for any of its terms, but it would seem if I were trying to determine whether abortion were permiss...

So long as we're having fun. That's what its all about. Reading your article, I now know that if I'm trying to figure out if the statement "Citizens h...

I was struck by the complex ridicule of the absurd, a brilliant use of the double negative, exposing the author's hyper-sanity. Well done. Well done i...

The trimester framework was so obviously present in the 14th Amendment, yet I was just too blind to see it. It's just surprising to learn the drafters...

Alright, so if in 1972, we were to sit 100 US lawyers in a room and asked them to read the Texas abortion law and then to read the text of the Bill of...

Herschel on the climate/Green New Deal/air: "Since we don't control the air our good air decided to float over to China's bad air so when China gets o...

And fundamentally, the point I'm making is that you have no evidence that conservatives are opposed to artificial wombs. You've made an empirical asse...

My purpose in providing the primer to Judaic law was meant only to provide support for my criticism against the anti-religious crowd that they were ar...

We double up on my wife's Claritin by using my ID before she runs out. If I could figure out how to make a batch of meth with the extra, I'd give it a...

This is really nonsense. You completely fabricated a reality and then you concluded how it would turn out in a way that exactly met your biases. The r...

Either that, or you're not listening to them when they tell you that they believe that human life begins at conception and they believe that it's requ...

I'm not sure what evidence you have that pro-lifers are opposed to artificial wombs. One reason such polling hasn't been done on that issue is because...

I've not taken a hard line against any AA at all, but it's more a pragmatic objection in what I see really happening. Yes, the LGBT community, for exa...

If AA is the equitable solution as you argue, but also an ineffective solution as you argue, then why have it? Are you arguing that AA is in principle...

How could you not have heard him? The question was written.

An inherent limitation in any democracy is quality of the electorate.

I'm an interesting person, for example.

That's funny because it did just the opposite to me.

I came across this obituary. I think this might be the inspiration for my next short story. https://www.jacksonville.com/obituaries/pfla0245589

Why are those your only choices? Maybe there's a small child in the room who's about to be greeted with a pointed weapon at his head.

I did read the sexual innuendo throughout, but I didn't read it entirely as a dream. The problem still rests with this sentence: If it were a dream, a...

If you're asking whether something is legal or not, you're left with exactly two choices: (1) Positive law or (2) natural law. Positive law is that la...

Too deep for me.

This line threw me. I didn't understand the phrase "for instance," as if Chile is the type of country where this could occur in the hypothetical, as o...

Consistent with what @"Benkei" said, you need to explain what law you're asking they're guilty of. For example, if a Saudia Arabian killed a woman for...
