    How can you defend this?

    Well Israel has screened it, so you should just accept whatever it says! I'm sure it's totally objective.

    2020 Election Results

    Well this is interesting: Sorry About That Whole 2000 Mules Thing Salem admitting it was all a fraud and pulling the film is like Amazon admitting that their warehouse employees and delivery drivers were being treated like shit, and publicly apologizing to them.

    What will be Trump's conditions of probation?

    After watching much of his speech at Trump Tower, I would suggest an examination by a neurologist or other health professional. He starts out by addressing the camera/looking ahead, and after a few minutes he wound up looking off towards the right and rambling on for another half an hour. The...

    Moved Live Trump Trial Updates

    Of the criminal cases that Trump was facing, I think it's fair to say this may have been the weakest. Yet a jury of 12 citizens - agreed upon by Trump's own defense team - found him guilty of all 34 counts in a surprisingly short amount of time. The judge was about to send them home for the...

    Moved Live Trump Trial Updates

    The crimes in this case (and I love that I don't have to attach the word "alleged") mostly happened when he was just a regular citizen running for President, so I'm not sure there's enough luxury motor coaches that would get the Supremes to rule that he was immune before he was even sworn in.

    Moved Live Trump Trial Updates

    I was listening to the story on the way home, and what struck me was how...well...defeated our Convict in Chief sounded while giving his remarks to the press. Kinda like he had "low energy" and was feeling like a "loser." I'm sure he'll rage in about 12 hours on his social media site, but he...

    It's officially 1984

    There's a couple of things that give me a tiny bit of hope. One thing is that unlike before, he is not ensconced in the White House and able to pull the levers of power in order to attempt to overthrow the election results should they not go his way. It is hard to understate just how close he...

    The Race For 2024

    And leave it to Derec to take a reference used to show "times have changed" and twist it into "women are bitches, amirite?"

    Four-day workweek?

    The rich can still be rich. No need to eat them at all. Maybe nibble around the edges. Bring it back down to the level of a CEO making 10 or even 20 times what the average employee makes as opposed to 400 or 500 times. And from what I hear, studies looking at 4 day/32 hour weeks say it...

    The Race For 2024

    Well that's the whole sales pitch isn't it? Your uncle who spouts off at Thanksgiving dinner thinks that Trump will somehow magically make it so that gas is under two bucks a gallon, the dollar menu comes back at McDonald's, and he can buy a new Chevy for under 20 grand. Ask them to point to...

    Four-day workweek?

    It was the shift managers (who made our schedules) that said "no, this actually works better for our needs, and we want it, too." They took it to the department manager, and she took it to the head of operations. She said "oh...you're right. Let's do that, then." The higher ups occasionally...

    Four-day workweek?

    A pizza party in the conference room? Sorry, but that sucks. I work for a subsidiary of General Motors, and a couple people in my department recently got bumped up to the next level. We were all shocked when they only got a 7% raise instead of the 10% the rest of us got when we were promoted...

    Roe v Wade is on deck

    That's the thing that sort of puts the lie to the whole "every life is sacred" thing. You've got a woman in an ER, the doctors have said "if we do not terminate this pregnancy, she will 100% die tonight", and the pro-lifer is like "yeah, but that would be morally wrong in my book. Can't we...

    Roe v Wade is on deck

    It's like the extremists who picketed Planned Parenthood locations. They started just protesting, then escalated it to shouting at anyone who came into the clinic, then holding up pictures of aborted fetuses, and finally...violence. An escalation. Intimidation. "You will follow our...

    Roe v Wade is on deck

    I've been listening to this thing lately called "Fall of Civilizations Podcast." It is very well researched, and the creator/presenter does a fantastic job of drawing you into the story of how many well known (and some lesser known) ancient civilizations - from the ones that sprang up in river...

    Roe v Wade is on deck

    From where I sit, this is exactly what you're saying. To you, abortion is immoral. You want it banned, and don't care if some - or even a majority of - women want access to it as an option. I don't think I'm missing anything here.

    Roe v Wade is on deck

    Yet that is exactly what you're doing. You are the equivalent of the Mormon smacking the Diet Coke out of your hand, and demanding that everyone follow your own morality.

    Roe v Wade is on deck

    You almost had it when you said "that's just your opinion." You're essentially insisting that YOUR opinion is the correct one, and everyone else must follow it. As for democracy, I'd agree with Bilby, but add that here in 'Murica, we don't have a pure democracy. We have a democratic republic...

    Roe v Wade is on deck

    You keep missing the point, don't you? You can act as morally as you want in your own life. You cannot force others to act as morally as you want in their life. Yet that is exactly what you want to do. You are demanding that some women be forced to use contraception (which you think -...
