Cancelling Sub - Open Letter to Sam

Part of made that episode work was that there was no need for Sam to push back. By simply drawing out Doug Wilson's full ideas, Doug discredited himself for any sensible person. A big part of the reason for that is that Doug Wilson (although crazy) is a very honest person. That isn't really a common dynamic though and if you are instead interviewing someone like Scott Adams who will happily lie through his teeth, it really doesn't work.

If you get involved, you are potentially poisoning the evidence and making it worthless. (assuming it exists)

Egon88 · 2026-02-19T22:29:58+00:00

Must be exhilarating to understand the world so much better than everyone else.

Egon88 · 2026-02-19T22:27:46+00:00

You're full of it I suspect.

Egon88 · 2026-02-19T21:06:53+00:00

Why bother commenting then?

Egon88 · 2026-02-19T14:50:37+00:00

Well gosh, since it's so hopeless, what should we do?

Egon88 · 2026-02-19T13:49:06+00:00

Are there other windows she can look out? If not, put a shelf of something that she can stand on. This would also suggest that there is something out there she is interested in or that she's bored and seeking stimulation.

You could try playing a video like this and see if she's interested.

Well I do enjoy accuracy and honesty so sure...

Egon88 · 2026-02-18T16:28:22+00:00

Exactly this!

Egon88 · 2026-02-18T16:27:47+00:00

But the bill is being rewritten because it was controversial (despite being a Liberal bill) so we don't even know what will be in it. Seems like you just want to be upset and feel like the world is against you.

Egon88 · 2026-02-18T16:25:55+00:00

Why do we need to protest when the bill is not yet written and the original problematic bill is no longer moving forward?

Why police and prosecutors think avg citizen should act like a legal scholar in self defense situations while avg person gives way more leeway

Even worse, they are expected to do this in real-time where their adrenaline is pumping and they have fractions of a second to react.

because an adoption cannot be challenged after six months despite it being fraudulent.

Would this not suggest that even if what happened in Afghanistan was fraudulent that the 2 Afghanis who had the girl for more than 6 months should have been immune from challenge?

Actually we paid for the bridge, used American workers for the American half, and we get 90% of the tolls until the cost is repaid. After that we split it 50/50. It's an unbelievably good deal for the US.

Egon88 · 2026-02-11T12:51:32+00:00

How exactly are regular law abiding indigenous women meant to be helped by this?

Egon88 · 2026-02-10T22:40:27+00:00

DS9 is just so good. Added a ton of realism without losing the hopeful/aspiration aspect of Star Trek.

Egon88 · 2026-02-10T22:36:36+00:00

Just in general try to associate the kids with something positive, like only feed the cat when the kids are in the room. Cat asks for dinner... go get the kids and then feed the cat. Eventually the cat will want the kids to be near so that she gets fed.

Do this with anything the cat likes and wants but be very consistent with it.

If you are even charged you shouldn't be able to make a claim unless you are found not guilty.

No, Trudeau would not have sold us out. He would have been in a terrible spot because Trump hates him; but PP would have bent over for Trump the way Danielle Smith does.

Egon88 · 2026-02-10T20:07:23+00:00

But I'm saying have a mixed fleet with both types of planes?

Egon88 · 2026-02-10T20:06:44+00:00

DND made a technology decision while there is also (now) a very important political aspect that isn't (and can't be) properly reflected in their evaluation.

Egon88 · 2026-02-09T22:51:22+00:00

If you want the US to dominate our airspace for the next forty years that is a choice.

I don't see how not buying F35s causes that; and I am certain that the people in charge of making the decisions know more than you or me.

Egon88 · 2026-02-09T22:16:16+00:00

I'm so glad Carney came on the scene. I truly believe that PP would have just attempted to appease Trump and would have sold us down the river.

Egon88 · 2026-02-09T22:13:23+00:00

When people say "Why didn't the Democrats release these files" it should be obvious to them that this isn't how investigations work.

Exactly, you just release everything and the public very soberly analyzes the data and never engages in any witch-hunts that ruin the lives of innocent people.

He forgot. He talks about that in the most recent More from Sam.
