When my husband died, because he was so famous and known for not being a believer, many people would come up to me-it still sometimes happens-and ask me if Carl changed at the end and converted to a belief in an afterlife. They also frequently ask me if I think I will see him again. Carl faced his…[Read more]

Horses. You’re “defense” is to change the subject.

Our regard for nonhuman animals is shameful.

But apparently that doesn’t include the “sport” of horse racing, which regularly breaks horse’s legs as they are forced to run harder and faster than their legs can safely bear. But, unlike a human with a broken leg, it’s not a matter of putting the leg in a cast and enduring weeks…[Read more]

Irresponsibly loved. Each year, approximately 2.7 million pets are euthanized (1.2 million dogs and 1.4 million cats) worldwide.

Unexpectedly, perhaps, PETA runs a so-called “shelter” with an unusually high kill rate.

But it is also sometimes wrong and, unlike religion, is willing to say so:

My hope is that these policies, and many of his others, will prove so popular that Trump will have to curtail or end them. Why? Because he’s so obsessed with being popular. He’s addicted to polls. As long as he can feed his greed, that may be enough to keep him happy. The big risk there is that he’s already signaling he wants a per…

@unseen, it’s already a huge nightmare. All of it. Did you see that basically Putin has already made a laughing stock of Trump? And Trump is already saying things about them deporting even people who are here legally. It’s really scary. it’s going to be absolutely horrible. He’s going to cause world war 3 and a Civil War at the…

The more I see Democrat politicians going crazy on Trumps picks!!! The more I know hes picking the right people!!

Putting a corrupt “lawyer” with virtually no legal experience who’s also likely guilty of sex trafficking in charge of the FBI… How could that go wrong?

Come on. Palestinians are human and love their children.

Casting Palestinians as innocent victims, telling us that a trans woman with a dick really is the same as a biological woman, expecting that everyone should go to college to have value and cancelling and/or ostracizing people who said things not exactly “the correct way” are all prime examples of illiberal ideas.

@Jakelafort – ya made me think of a modern Sinclair Lewis.

I recently asked AI to “Compare Trump and Berzelius “Buzz” Windrip”. I thought the last paragraph of the answer was very funny.

Sinclair Lewis’s 1935 novel *It Can’t Happen Here* introduces Berzelius “Buzz” Windrip, a populist politician who ascends to the U.S. presidency by exploiting…[Read more]

I see what ya did there with the left. You’re right. And yet I don’t mean to demonize lefties to the exclusion of right wingers or anyone else. We sort of have to posit free will even if we think it is absent. So to the extent I am reacting to the overt representations and behavior of far left i conclude it is despicable.

Now that Trump’s elected, has the prospect of civil war gone away? Hardly!
