Rape is perfectly natural. No one during Neanderthal times would have a moral issue with rape. But 99% of people living today find rape to be reprehensible. So we pass laws against this perfectly "natural" behavior.

I'm convinced rape is not a natural behavior. Fairly ancient in human history ok, but definitely not natural. Rape is an instrument of domination and I'm sure long long ago, human societies were more equitable.
When your struggle day after day to find your food and to escape saber-tooth tigers, you need to treat every member of the clan like the most precious ally. And I'm sure even Childs had weapons and knew how to use them.

Edit: I just want to make sure I'm not coming across like a dick to you guys ( @TigoleBitties and @Radwin Bodnic).
No offense taken! I love the discourse.

No offense taken either. We're on the same boat (hopefully not a luxury yatch). I like the talking, but maybe at one point we will be asked to move on.

Kudos to @macbill & @CANtalk for keeping this thread on track as we deviate from its course...

An environmental activist asking a Democratic Senator about his bizarre support for oil pipelines:


Hope a second stroke puts this vile ogre in the ground asap 👍

Here's this scumbag back in 2018 with the same activists he now openly mocks.

Speaker Mike Johnson's appearance at Trump's felony trial marks a remarkable moment in US politics​

  • U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson criticized the U.S. judicial system and echoed unsubstantiated claims made by former President Donald Trump during a court appearance, signaling a turn of his political party against federal and state legal systems.
  • Johnson alleged without proof that the special counsel who charged Trump in two separate cases has doctored evidence, attacked the credibility of witnesses, and called the case against Trump a "sham," further demonstrating loyalty toward the former president.
  • A growing number of Republicans, including Johnson, have been turning against the U.S. system of justice and standing with the indicted former president, with Johnson aiming to strengthen his alliance with Trump amid internal party challenges.

China executes executives over this kind of thing. I'm not in favor of capital punishment, so I think we need to give most of the Boeing C-Suite life in prison without parole. Only way to deter future corporate mass murderers I'm afraid :shrug:

Communism is a failed system.

But the Chinese Communists are making EV's so good that we need to slap a 100% tax on them. Otherwise, the entire Capitalist American Auto Industry will implode.

I understand China isn't currently a communist country. But most of our politicians moan about the dreaded CCP. Every single conservative cries about the evil ChiComs. So, I find all of this very funny :tup:

Trump’s playboy past is in the spotlight. His allies are readying a new fight against pornography

If some of the former president’s allies get their way, a second Trump term would put that industry on the ropes – and potentially its actors and producers behind bars.

A movement to rein in online pornography is rapidly intensifying, fueled by conservative outrage and growing unease over the accessibility of sexual content online, especially for children. In dozens of states, the porn industry is on the defense and facing new threats to its existence after decades of expansion in the internet era.

#NeverForget that one time Republican Senator Ted Cruz jerked off to incest porn on 9/11.

Fucking Combustion (mostly) Since February 2017

I disagree. It's gonna get bad once they start arresting and imprisoning people for this.

After they got rid of abortion, it would seem that same sex marriage and interracial marriage will be next on their list. Wait till they start going after people for those as well.

They are already trying to put an end to at-will divorce, so I don't look forward to seeing what's probably coming.

DeSantis signs bill scrubbing ‘climate change’ from Florida law

Florida will eliminate climate change as a priority in making energy policy decisions, despite the threats it faces from powerful hurricanes, extreme heat and worsening toxic algae blooms.

On Wednesday, the state’s governor, Ron DeSantis, signed the legislation, which is set to go into effect on July 1. The measure also removes most references to climate change in state law, bans offshore wind turbines in state waters and weakens regulations on natural gas pipelines.

Running on a platform of banning porn and casual sex seems like a bad way to get votes though. That's why I say it's "good".

I was back in FL in the first week of May. I was outside for 2 hours and it was so hot I wanted to kill myself. And May is the coolest month until November.

Disney amusement parks don't run on "magic". They run on pure human misery. Demonic places, honestly. That wretched company deserves way more hate than it gets.


As you can see, Disney attracts delightful employees. Really sweet, decent people. And then crushes them physically, financially, and spiritually.

What the bloody FUCK is going on in North Carolina?
I went on vacation to Virginia (near the NC border) during the middle of the pandemic, wore a mask out of the car and came back to find someone left a note on my car that complained about how useless masks were and they ended the note with “Wake up Sheeple!”

So I assume a steady diet of internet and leaded water probably has taken its toll on folks.

Wearing a mask isn't compatible with facial recognition.
So let's kill a bunch of old people because you can't see their face clearly? Give me a fucking break. People are still fucking dying from COVID every day. Let's go out of our way to prevent people who are concerned about it or are especially vulnerable from protecting themselves. That's the American way, right?

Not sure if the east coast gets wildfire season like the west coast does yet, but it also REALLY helps when the air is smoky. Started wearing my n95 masks during August/September since I got tired of feeling like I inhaled an entire ashtray daily when we get the yearly smoke filled heat domes.
