Biden did horrible. The Democrats are handing the election to Trump.

The opening permits the passage of small items like keys, paperclips, marbles, and #10 nails without having to penguin walk with your shorts half down...

My poems of Edrina are also well known. Who can forget my tale of the subpoena served upon Endrina by the hyena in Argentina? Fancy that, a displaced ...

We've been over this. He's protecting the few hairs remaining.

I think it might be turkey sausage.

My favorite part is where my brother was starting to drown from being pushed onto a lillypad and he encountered a clean banjo. I feel like that has a ...

I wrote a poem. I think it's pretty good. Let me know your thoughts. It came to me suddenly and I had to write it down so as to not to lose it. I refu...

I don't know what you're trying to say here. Is this a compliment or an insult? I need to know where to send my garbage ballons.

My most common interaction is with my neighbor across the street. CiCi the little curly haired brown dog gets loose from the fence and he runs over. H...

This gives me the idea to send helium garbage balloons to those in my neighborhood. Their delight in seeing Happy Birthday balloons overhead will quic...

If I do go, I too will stand my brother upon a rock. He enjoys the sun, and I have heard it is always sunny there, but I have also heard otherwise. Th...

Some insights into your pics: In the US, the word "dishwasher" describes an appliance, not a person. For that reason, you wouldn't see a plate drying ...

For this to be accurate, your brother in law would have to have been in the Falklands from April to June, 1982. Aside from those two months, the Briti...

Send me some pics so I can reminisce. I remember my hotel from 20 years ago. You leave the train station and walk toward town, the sea to your left. Y...

I'm not suggesting there isn't a correct answer for how one is to get from point A to point B. I'm only saying there isn't a single correct destinatio...

The blue sake seemed most enticing from your reviews. But the letters strewn about your tablecloth, please explain.

In a democracy we allow the variety of viewpoints to determine which policy we want to implement. I don't think that a democracy always gets it right....

It does appear to be a cockrel from the spike off his leg. You've got be careful when tangling with the cockrel they always say.
June 20, 2024 at 19:06
Since we're talking pragmatics here, hypotheticals have to be subject to this same pragmatic analysis. That is, has there really been a case where an ...
June 20, 2024 at 12:44
Your objection is that of enforcement, not that the OPs suggestion is incorrect. That is, you're not objecting to the suggestion that XY gender identi...

If the objective in your example is to equalize the treatment of men and women at the cost of additional death, then the egalitarian dictate makes sen...

That there are reasons to do something doesn't mean it ought be done. The "ought" question is a judgment call that is based upon which objectives you ...

So, I was trying to find out if there were another animal that had "ass" in its name, much like the now beloved assfish. I tried out "assdog," and it ...

It's completely illegal to charge a black owned business a higher premium based upon race, but whether it's statistically unreasonable is a matter of ...

Did you know that the bony-eared assfish may have the smallest brain-to-body weight ratio of any vertebrate? If I were an assfish, I'd wear an asshat ...

Why do you draw naked pictures of @"Michael"? I'm sure he'd send you some actual pics if you need them for some reason.

Caught a couple of catfish and then ate BBQ with my son. A very Americana/redneck Father's Day.

I would awake at 4 am before the rats got up and crawl to school through the city sewers feeling my way with my fingertips, occasionally grabbing anot...

Tnx!

Consider though, a tree.

An interesting question is why humans evolved in a way that enabled alterations of consciousness through chemical substances. That is, what did our ea...

Nothing could be explained if determinism were the case other than to say that you've arrived at an explanation that you were determined to arrive at....

As @"Leontiskos" has correctly pointed out the implications are significant, and it's beyond what you've suggested. If the engineer cannot but choose ...
June 12, 2024 at 20:27
I am reading your emails. My prior comment was sarcasm, as if I'd make arguments in court related to philosophical debates and not the reason I was th...
June 12, 2024 at 20:10
Sure, that's what I argue because my concern in court centers around exposing the philosophical implications of determinism upon free will as opposed ...
June 12, 2024 at 17:45
Random and spontaneous are not the same thing. We can say that quantum movement is random to the extent we can't predict it, but we don't go so far as...
June 12, 2024 at 12:39
What causes him to create an event? You seem to be talking about spontaneous events now. Why am I responsible for things that just happen without caus...
June 11, 2024 at 18:23
If every event has a cause, then the agent cannot be the originating cause because the concept of an originating cause makes no sense because that wou...
June 11, 2024 at 17:24
Amen my brother. And don't let them tell you otherwise.
June 10, 2024 at 17:05
And what caused the agent to perform the act? You have two choices here: (1) nothing or (2) something. Assuming you won't choose #1, then that somethi...

We can debate whether probability theory relates to ontology or epistimology, with the former suggesting that the universe in State A will sometimes l...
June 10, 2024 at 16:59
You do. You're just far away, and your countries are smaller than our states. The French elections have popped up in my news feed, so if you do someth...
June 10, 2024 at 14:55
The point of determinism is that there are no options, but that there is only one course of action possible. If I strike a pool ball, it doesn't have ...
June 10, 2024 at 12:26
I don't follow how this definition of "justice" comforts with our use of the term. Do you suggest an innocent person who is kidnapped and tortured is ...
June 10, 2024 at 01:11
Conditionally voluntary is a self contradictory phrase to the extent "conditionally" means deterministically. If you mean something other than that, e...
