Don't worry, the button is hypothetical and even if I was a neuroscientist, I'd never really hook anyone up to this unless it was part of some end of ...

I don't believe human life needs pain at all. It's not really in any of our control and not a single one of us is responsible for designing this diabo...
September 20, 2020 at 04:42
Yes, we are able to overcome both kinds. Doesn't mean I'm going to start taking heroin anytime soon or take up an unhealthy masturbation habit, just b...
September 20, 2020 at 04:21
Not really, I meant "no catch" as in I won't do anything to harm you if you agree, make you sign all your wealth and property over to me or I won't ju...

Depends what you mean by addiction. Behavioral addiction is not the same beast as chemical addiction but it is similar.
September 20, 2020 at 03:39
How could I ever appreciate the good without some knowledge of what is bad? Does that answer your question?
September 20, 2020 at 02:45
What does equilibrium mean to you? I'm not disagreeing. I do see what you are saying, I don't necessarily want pleasure when I feel pain, I just want ...

Sir, I love you. I'm gonna be borrowing those terms. Watch the Social Dilemma on Netflix. You. Will. Love. It!
September 20, 2020 at 02:39
Is it stupid to admire a fictional character? I admire loads! Even if I don't always admire the writer of that character *Cough*JKRowling*Cough*. What...

Antifa isn't a group as far as I'm aware but an ideology. You're already Antifa bro! There are organised Antifa movements all over the world but there...
September 20, 2020 at 02:05
I know. I was merely playing.
September 20, 2020 at 01:51
By the way, I think it probably best that you know that I do in fact have a child with another one due in February. Just so you are informed as to whe...
September 20, 2020 at 01:33
Also I've been drinking, so there is that. Not trolling though or at least it isn't my intent but I'm sorry if you feel like it is. At the heart of th...
September 20, 2020 at 01:28
I'm not trolling you. This is a sincere question. I'm just trying to provide some light humour so we all know that we are friends in this discussion a...
September 20, 2020 at 01:22
What about your goals and ambitions in life? You'd likely forget about those in favour of the button. Would you really want to lose everything that ma...
September 20, 2020 at 01:18
As an aside for everyone; it would probably be best to take this offer with the caretaker option. When the rats had control of the button, they forgot...
September 20, 2020 at 01:14
It really is an easy trap. My prey has yet to take the bait though. I personally see the human experience as so much more meaningful than seeking plea...

@"schopenhauer1" Your turn buddy! What will you pick?
September 20, 2020 at 01:00
sure, why not. I'll give you a dial instead of a button haha
September 20, 2020 at 00:58
To anyone that votes yes, I ask you, why? No judgements.
September 20, 2020 at 00:54
Good man.
September 20, 2020 at 00:52
I voted no just so everyone is aware.

Supreme Court Update: The six Republican Senators who will have the biggest parts to play are as follows, Collins of Maine, Murkowski of Alaska, Romne...

Hahahaha! That made me laugh :') explains all the female armour in almost every video game. Metal bikinis and shit.
September 19, 2020 at 19:53
If it gets you talking and taking me seriously, then I'll say it. It was a sincerely held concern and I would have done it whether you had been here f...
September 19, 2020 at 15:16
Firstly, I'd like to point out that if your OP was a thesis which you were publicly defending, you'd be expected to be able to provide arguments that ...
September 19, 2020 at 15:03
You said most, not all. I do agree with the most statement, however I'm curious as to which Antinatalists you think don't belong to this majority of a...
September 19, 2020 at 14:38
Firstly, thank you for revisiting my response. It is appreciated and I apologise for any offense caused by me, to you. It does say in my bio that I ca...
September 19, 2020 at 14:11
Since some moderators have vouched for you, I will take you at your word and will try to be more charitable with your views. My first impressions of Z...
September 19, 2020 at 14:04
Call it a hunch. Timing and behaviour of the Znon account seems very strange to me. But then maybe all antinatalists just sound strange to me.
September 19, 2020 at 13:01
Fucking seconded!
September 19, 2020 at 12:24
@"schopenhauer1" No, it's an admission of incredulity at how transparent you are. Creating another account to narcissistically agree with yourself is ...
September 19, 2020 at 12:09
@"Zn0n" + @"schopenhauer1" = Same person. Try covering your tracks better and don't be so transparent. The sheer level of stupidity and projection her...

Go to fucking sleep already! Alkies.

Helping out your ratio while simultaneously pointing out that if you don't want to objectify your partner, "There is no one more erotic, nor beautiful...

September 19, 2020 at 06:04
If it is there for a mind to see, then chances are it is part of reality in some way. Whether existence or subsistence. This question seems kind of du...
September 19, 2020 at 06:00
I see what you mean. This is why I'm part of the fuck all your factions faction.
September 19, 2020 at 05:52
If Cruz or Cotton are nominated, expect Roe v Wade to be one of the first things to go.
September 19, 2020 at 05:28
Funny you say that, Cruz is one of the people on Trumps list. Along with Tom Cotton. @"Maw" Amy Barret is also on that list. However she may rub Prote...

Update: Republican Senator Lisa Murkowski has suggested that she will not confirm a new justice, until after the January 2021 presidential inauguratio...

Weird, the arrogance of humans now completely fails to even surprise me.
September 19, 2020 at 04:29
You make a very, very good point. It certainly doesn't sound like how democracy should work
September 19, 2020 at 04:27
Are you describing the left here or humanity in general? I see it as the latter but I hesitate to call any politician human.
September 19, 2020 at 04:25
"Think of the children, won't someone please think of the children?!" Sorry. Someone had to say it. Seriously though, it's not worth getting my ass be...
September 19, 2020 at 04:22
You're probably right. This is 'Moscow' Mitch we are talking about here, after all. I still hope it is done, so others are reminded of it. Not that it...
September 19, 2020 at 04:14
Really like this thread. Like an oasis of reason and humility in a desert of egoic, prideful and arrogant irrationality. Will watch the video and resp...
September 19, 2020 at 03:34
Finally! I thought I was the only one who was gonna pick at these ridiculous premises for this discussion. Sir, I salute you.
September 19, 2020 at 02:34
I do so hope that someone in the senate quotes McConnells own words to his face on this one.
September 19, 2020 at 02:31
Update; Supreme court justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has died. All sorts of fans are about to be hit by all sorts of shit. :/
