Don’t forgot Trump also abandoned the Kurds. And i think it was Trump who got US out of Afghanistan which enabled the Taliban to be purely Islamic and the consequent suffering and misery to follow.

Afghanistan was the end result of four Administrations dithering about it starting with Bush, going through Obama and Trump 1.0, and ending w…[Read more]

When i read about the following it made me think about the issues of discrimination against trans people and even whether it is real.

‘researchers from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and Canada have discovered a specific group of neurons in the brain that acts as an “on/off” switch, showing profound differences between male and female brain…[Read more]

Enco,

I was not aware of that. It is so obvious that ideology robs ideologues of their compassion. If one is not part of the in-group then fuck em. Let em fucking die a miserable death.

Trump’s inner Vlad the Impaler is coming out. He has hand-picked others who want to please him by executing terroristic policies. American human beings can be officially demoted to untrainable-dog level value. Vermin. Will SCOTUS also keep supporting him?

Jake:

There’s some of that fake sympathy for the Iranian people already, even without blaming the Jews. Starting with Trump. Not only did he posture and hem and haw while Iranians were being slaughtered, but now he’s feeding more in to the meat-grinder:

Trump Is Deporting Iranians to a Country That Will Kill…[Read more]

Enco,

Can you even construct the degree of fake sympathy for the innocents in Iran if it were Jews who were doing it?

The protests, riots, propaganda, attacks, violence against Jews would be WW2 like.

It is a sick fucking world. Humans can’t think with a few exceptions and their norms and morality are dealt to them like a dealer with his cards.

Jake:

Just some heart-warming news to be aware or not…

More like blood-curdling than heart-warming. The Islamic Republic is a human slaughterhouse.

Never mind Panpsychism. Is there UN-psychism, Woke-psychism, Peacenik-psychism, MAGA-psychism, Trump-psychism, Media-psychism, Academia-psychism…

Another thing about food recommendations:

The committee saw a number of papers in Hispanic, Black, and Asian communities where dairy wasn’t a prevalent part of the diet, whether due to lactose intolerance or cultural food preferences. DGAC suggested changing the language to make dairy an optional, not integral, part of a good dietary…

Panpsychism is an attempt to avoid “consciousness from nothing” by baking mind-like properties into the foundations of physics. That is almost like an argument for Creationism. For me, consciousness is an emergent property, not a fundamental physical property. It is not present in parts that can be assembled. In the same way that water mol…

RFK Jr. on the Food Pyramid and Tylenol.

Will everybody stop with the talk about Ultra-Processed Foods!

Nobody has yet given a coherent, sensible definition of what Ultra-Processed Food is, and as is the case with our favorite Omnific Being, if you can’t say what it is, you can’t say that it is.

And where in the U.S. Constitution is…[Read more]

Is Panpsychism just Snake Oil?

The article didn’t fully define what Panpsychism was, (fundamental property of what?) so already there is at least one entity in the Natural Universe that isn’t fully conscious, and certainly not Omniscient.

Wikipedia as usual is more specific, precise, and…[Read more]

Thanks Reg!

Have a great week everyone!

It only took one monkey to create the entire works of Shakespeare. His first name was William. (rtff)

-9F….wow…stay safe and keep warm!!

The lights may be dimmed as the worst storm ever is forecast.

So severe it may snap the ship in two!

You should get to see the Northern Lights this time around – tonight in much of the USA.

I think that mass becomes infinite as it approaches the speed of light through space, not time.

It occurs to me we have no clue. And the ones who are educated only slightly greater enlightenment…maybe…
