The thing is that different people have very different experiences when they take drugs, so it's unlikely that there's some sort of truer reality that everyone is perceiving.

Leslie Knope for president2016 6 comments

I'm pretty sure Ron's first act as president would be to abolish the federal government, but maybe that wouldn't be such a bad thing?
At the very least, he would reduce government spending and taxes to pretty much nothing.

The thing is, your view operates on the assumption that the primary purpose of all sexual and romantic interactions is childbirth. However, most people who oppose homosexuality are typically far less critical of contraceptive use, couples who choose not to have children, and couples with at least one infertile member, even though these behaviours are just as reproductively unviable.
So while the idea you've presented may be a factor and is often used as an argument against homosexuality, it is not sufficient to explain the average homophobe's views. The issue is far more complex than what you are reducing it to.
Tldr: stop pretending like your prejudice against me and people like me is scientifically justified. You're still an asshole.

That's because it's the box where you indicate what language you want it translated to. Seeing as this person can't speak Russian, I doubt they'd want anything to be translated into Russian.

Actually, he releases female pheromones to trick the other males into trying to mate with him, so that he warms up faster and actually has a shot at the lady snakes. But we don't know whether things work out in the end.

Actually, not all hybrids are sterile. Coyote/wolf hybrids, for example, can reproduce. Animal hybrids probably couldn't lead to evolution, though, since animals by far prefer mates from their own species. On the other hand, since plant reproduction is less discriminating (make a ton of pollen and hope for the best, basically), interspecies plant hybrids often occur in nature and can sometimes lead to new species.

That's how it works with any morally dubious movement, though. Or any movement at all, really. People pretty much always believe what they're doing is right, or else they would stop doing it.

We don't have to learn imperial units next door in Canada, so I'd be surprised if the rest of the world had to. But learning the metric system is way easier than learning the imperial system, which I guess is kind of the point.

Why all the hate for e-readers? Sure, books are great and I still buy them all the time, but with my Kindle I can instantly get new books for cheaper without leaving my house. Both are good in their own ways.

The thing is that black people are often treated as criminals regardless of whether they act like one whereas, as totallydude pointed out above, white people receive far less judgement for far worse (or at least less justified) behaviour.

If disciplining your kids so that they don't become assholes (i.e. doing your job as a parent) counts as bullying, then yes.

I like to think Canadian strippers make more money because the smallest bills we have here are $5. Unless strip club patrons can pay with loonies and toonies, but that sounds like a mood killer.

Personally, I beg to differ. I'm also gay and only take offense at things meant to be offensive, but that's because now I'm secure in who I am. When I was 13 and coming to terms with my sexuality, every day I'd hear my classmates calling people and things "gay" as an insult. Even if they weren't being consciously homophobic, the implication that gay is bad or inferior really fucked me up and made it a lot harder for me to be okay with who I am.

I would agree if this were a movie for adults, but, speaking as a gay person, LGBT representation in children's media is actually super important. It's evidence that we are finally being accepted even by the stricter moral standards of children's shows and movies, and, more importantly, it lets kids know that it's perfectly alright for them or for people around them to be gay.

There are U.S. copyright issues on the word "Avatar" because of James Cameron's movie, so it's "The Legend of Korra" in the states and "Avatar: the Legend of Korra" everywhere else. So you're actually both right.

Something that really interests me is how the contrast between the two books can be explained by the context they were written in. Brave New World, published in the wake of the roaring twenties, depicts a culture of mass production/consumption, complete sexual freedom, and instant gratification. 1984, on the other hand, came out in the aftermath of WWII, and it focuses on controlling people through deprivation, fear, and redirected aggression. Brave New World relates a bit more to the world we're living in now, but 1984 was certainly extremely relevant in its own time, and still very relevant today.

Genetic diseases are failures 10 comments

Interestingly, some genetic disorders are still around because they can prove helpful in certain forms. For example, while sickle-cell anemia severely weakens those who have it, people who carry the abnormal gene but also have a normal copy are less likely to die of malaria, which is why natural selection never removed the mutation.
