Two free hot dogs! Hey wait a second 11 comments

Where do you live? All my life I've been buying hot dogs in packs of 10.
Which is extremely odd, considering that hot dog buns always come in packs of 8.
Glad someone somewhere figured it out.

It says "Disney princesses", so "Disney version of the story" should be implied.

I suppose if you're going to trounce all over individual liberties, you might as well do something good while you're at it.

Track them down and hammer a nail into their heads. See if they feel it then.

The Solar System isn't always layed out in a neat line like in your 8th-grade textbook. They're each orbiting the Sun at different rates, which puts them in different places. It is entirely possible (though admittedly less common) to see both Earth and Jupiter from Mars at the same time.
Here's a diagram showing how:

There's an interesting question -- if a man doesn't have the right to have a say in the abortion, does a woman have the right to go after him for support payments if she keeps the child?
Kinda seems like the man gets screwed over either way.

I don't really see why that should be a special case. If you're mature enough to be using contraceptives, you should be mature enough to know that they do not guarantee that you won't get pregnant. If you're willing to take the risk, I don't see why you have the right to opt out if the dice roll isn't in your favor.

I just don't see where "the right to her body" is being denied. If she was raped, that's a valid argument. But if it was consensual, pregnancy is a completely natural consequence.
It doesn't make sense to me that rights should supercede nature itself.

That it doesn't explicitly need YOU. It just needs safety and nutrients. If it can get them from somewhere else, that works just as well.
If you put a 6-month old out in the park with a basket of apples, it would die too. btw.

Apparently such a person doesn't exist, anha. We're so invested in our stereotypes that people don't even consider that possibility.

All a fetus needs to survive are a suitable environment and the necessary nutrition. If it has that, it doesn't need the mother. Those are the same needs all organisms, all humans, have.
One day we will have medical technology to support fetal development with no pregnancy involved at all. Does the definition of a human life change at that point?

Maybe they aren't ready for it. But is that justification for killing it?
Is growing up in poverty worse than not growing up at all?

I knew a man in South Africa who discovered that his ex-wife had aborted 13 of his children without telling him. It absolutely destroyed him. I've never seen such a strong man cry like that.
He should have a say because they're his kids too. Just because you're not physically carrying them doesn't mean you can't love them.

But if you are of the opinion that the fetus is a human being, what good person would just sit by and allow murder because "it's none of my business"?
Your argument makes sense from your perspective. But not from theirs. That's why everyone has such a hard time getting along. There's no empathy.

Except that's not actually how they view us, that's a visual representation of how they view us. Something that we can perceive.
We can't experience how echolocation works unless we actually have echolocation. Saying that this is how echolocation works for dolphins is like explaining color to a blind person. We can't experience what our brains are not wired to perceive. Best we can do is make approximate representations like this one.
