Mikie does. Patently.
March 03, 2025 at 20:06
I don't think the analogy is apt. It's a good one for getting the average person to consider morality as something we can discuss and work with. It do...

Just had polveron for the first time. Wow.
February 27, 2025 at 20:00
Seems like this would simply lead to a circle of non-productivity and non-progress. I also think it is not in our best interests to treat everyone wit...

Brain stem structures, is my understanding - the nerve bundles prior to the hemispheres of the brain around the top of the spinal column and 'bottom' ...
February 26, 2025 at 19:36
Very good. I think not only is it self-defeating in that sense (which admittedly, might just come down to the linguistics of hte bumper-stickers) but ...
February 26, 2025 at 19:24
I see. I may be ignorant to how well-subscribed that view is. My understanding is even the duller coterie among that sort of group aren't seriously su...
February 26, 2025 at 19:14
There is no acceptable alternative. More likely to be balance of probabilities unless there's no disputed facts ;) Certainly, we already cover crimina...

Which is an over-reaction. But so is NATO. Its 30 years out of date, at least.
February 26, 2025 at 03:28
Some kind of philosophy of hte species remaining a single, pure species (yes, that's on purpose) and the concept of liberal/egalitarian thinking. I do...
February 26, 2025 at 03:24
There truly doesn't seem to be any facts of this kind. There appears to be habits.
February 26, 2025 at 03:20
Oh yes, obviously. This thread speaks extremely loudly for itself. Mods, this is in the correct place to be actioned.
February 26, 2025 at 03:18
Childs be childs i guess.
February 26, 2025 at 03:12
No.
February 26, 2025 at 03:09
Post again.
February 26, 2025 at 03:05
My understanding is the prehemispheric structures solve this problem in humans, and make sets of data from both halves cohere in our perception. I've ...
February 26, 2025 at 03:05
*quotes Mikies entire post history and leaves an emoji. Like a fucking child*.
February 26, 2025 at 03:02
This strikes me as totally incoherent. They aren't related(on my first reading.. This isn't an impugning). the "philosophy of staying together" as a s...
February 26, 2025 at 02:57
You're a dick. Dress it up however you want.
February 26, 2025 at 02:55
Its beyond me why we allow a child to run around this forum insulting everyone, making absolutely insane posts that belittle the forum, its members an...
February 25, 2025 at 18:39
Very good point. Steel-manning is a practice few can actually carry out. I have a hard time, so i usually dont engage in those arguments. Yes, and it'...
February 25, 2025 at 18:37
I don't care. You've proved yourself to be a risible character with absolutely zero self-awareness. Enjoy.
February 21, 2025 at 04:02
I very much hope you find something truly compelling to bring your life joy :) It certainly isn't this forum.
February 21, 2025 at 04:01
Having a thread which allows for a single stance is directly against the ethos of the forum. Mikies behaviour in general, for the last year at least h...
February 21, 2025 at 03:43
Going through Woody Guthrie, Rosetta Tharpe and Mahalia Jackson currently. Also bought an old Joan Baez record recently and remember how god damn f**k...
February 21, 2025 at 03:40
LOL. What a thread.
February 21, 2025 at 03:40
That's fair, as long as you're still making room for any an all degrees of error, whcih i assume you are :)
February 21, 2025 at 03:38
That final note cannot be achieved by the prior imperative.
February 21, 2025 at 03:36
Very good. And a real problem for the question per se, I think. Maybe they simply cannot come apart and our world still be seen to cohere. For me, the...
February 21, 2025 at 03:34
Re-read: A Day In The Life of Ivan Denisovich; Of Mice and Men/Cannery Row; The Crying of Lot 49; and The Problems Of Philosophy (about 11 pages to go...
February 20, 2025 at 19:06
I think both of you are supremely missing hte crux of why these two (general) camps cannot see eye to eye: they see things from different perspectives...
February 20, 2025 at 19:00
Totally wild - not unexpected Want to be very clear, that 'trans' isn't relevant to why I think this is wild. But it is somewhat relevant to why I thi...
February 19, 2025 at 19:40
It's good to see process being talked about. When I read P&R I reached out here for some thoughts/discussion and nothing came of it. Appreciate these ...
February 19, 2025 at 18:49
You could all just stay here, and let that thread do what it's meant to do -= allow for all discussion around climate change. Echo chambers aren't hel...
February 19, 2025 at 18:46
For me, the straight answer to this is that, with more restriction and more direction, this is what's happening in waking life anyway. There are those...
February 19, 2025 at 18:44
This is potentially hte most ironic post I've seen in months. Nice.
February 19, 2025 at 18:41
Sounds like the first line was all that was needed to me
February 19, 2025 at 18:39
Those fellas certainly do LOL.
February 12, 2025 at 19:13
Still very relevant. Not particularly well read - and he has the awkward problem of most people reading him being dumb late-high-school, early-Univers...
February 12, 2025 at 18:56
On it's plain wording, it seems impossible to say 'no'.
February 12, 2025 at 18:55
Well that's where this ends. I suppose its good you've made clear your attitude early in your career here.
February 12, 2025 at 18:52
There are parts of this response that are going to come off combative - I would implore you to not assess every line as an attack. You have clearly mi...
February 12, 2025 at 01:45
Is there any way to avoid writing on something too similar to someone else given the anonymity? Or do we not care?
February 11, 2025 at 23:23
Haven't read the whole thread - skimmed, and sought your most recent takes before replying. You are alternately taking Whitehead too seriously, and no...
February 11, 2025 at 22:45
No there isn't. They are express policies of racism, sexism and bigotry. On their face, and on analysis. That's a wild leap to make. Not one which app...
February 11, 2025 at 22:30
Its not unique at all.
January 28, 2025 at 19:57
I said I disagreed about the Bishop. Not quite sure why you're asking about Trump's post? oh for fucks sake there's absolutely nothign defensible abou...
January 24, 2025 at 04:07
No, of course. BUt Ari's mean is to do with extremes of behaviour, for the most part. Not the truth or falsity of something. The whole "your story, my...
January 24, 2025 at 04:06
I want to point out, this is now quite off topic. It will become clear I see no reason to continue this, so take these responses and understand I wont...
