Your ignorance about prostitution overflows into your ignorance about apps and websites. Some of these resources have been online for a decade or longer. There are even sites offering reviews of the girls (well, mostly girls) and the quality of their services. You can even hook up on Facebook though Snapchat is far safer.
And while…[Read more]

Your ignorance of mid-level and high-end prostitution is profound. I’m guessing you get it from TV. You are talking about street walker prostitutes probably run by pimps. That is so old school. It exists, but it isn’t what I was describing.
There are ways to connect with a person who is willing to perform sexual services in almost perfect…[Read more]

The main cause of Venezuela’s economic problems isn’t socialism, it’s capitalist interference by The United States.
What makes prices go up? Well, capitalism is right: Prices go up when there are shortages, when there isn’t enough of something to go around. It’s called the law of supply and demand. And one thing which has become…[Read more]

But that shouldn’t equate to using non-combatants as sacrificial pawns or a total callous indifference to collateral civilian casualties.
Having any rules of war is meaningless if non-combatants are disposable. If you can pick off civilians as part of some other strategic aim, then why not just bomb a school for some aim or mustard g…

“My people, I’m sorry to inform you that we have surrendered to our enemy. We had no choice. We could have won but it would have involved committing war crimes and as you know, keeping our hands clean and cleaving to the moral high ground is more important than evading the plunder and enslavement of losing.”
Would we want a leader who would let…[Read more]

Sunday School August 7th 2022 in the forum Sunday School 2 days, 8 hours agoI don’t think there are any credible sex robots but there definitely are highly realistic sex dolls with mouths, vaginas, and anuses functional enough to be used.
Of course, why buy a sex doll or bot when warm-blooded sex is available from willing sex workers? Given the high cost of education in the U.S., there are attractive college girls…[Read more]

It seems like obesity is a risk factor for every damn illness or disease. 90 years old and fat? Idk but every single time i see a pic of a 100 yr old it is a skinny mini person. If USA socializes medicine and it should maybe we can have incentives relating to weight. Obesity is directly related to our ridiculous health care…

Hmm, Ukraine’s military is supposed to just walk away and give up their cities to Russian war criminals (and now North Koreans too)? Nope. How stupid. Russia opened this war by rocketing and bombing their capital city full of civilians. Civilians are in the fight. I watched a video of an old man hunting down hapless Russian a…

Amnesty International: Ukraine: Ukrainian fighting tactics endanger civilians
To be clear, AI isn’t alleging that Ukraine is in any way worse than Russia when it comes war crimes, but using civilians as human shields is a war crime under international law.
However, the practice may be even worse than it looks at first glance because anyone who…[Read more]

Unseen, When I need medical help I can almost never do what would be called intelligent and effective price shopping be it for doctors, medications, emergency services, whatever.
That’s because the law forbids Physicians, Pharmacists, Clinical, and Hospitals from posting prices for their procedures and wares. The only m…

Here’s why we need government to help protect us from the “free market” for pharmaceuticals. This is Pfizer in Great Britain but you can bet the same sort of shenanigans go on here. One hopes that the legislation allowing Medicare to negotiate drug prices will pass.

Free markets are overrated, or not every market even CAN be free.
The medical marketplaces are either not free or are distorted.
Explain how the pharma market is free. Well, it is free for Big Pharma. They seem to be free to charge whatever they want, and the reason is clear: They make products people must use but where there is no…[Read more]

Yeah. I say it all the time. The US govt is just a weak extension of the boardroom and a divisive diversion at that. I’m told the “free (/s) market” is efficient. Yeah, efficient at concentrating wealth. So efficient you gotta have a giant reset every 10 years, LOL. Try buying homeowners insurance in DeathSantis’ Florida. What go…
