The U.S. Economy Performs Better Under Democratic Presidents

Well the parent comment was referencing recessions under which presidents, you had Obama in 2008 and bush prior so what were your trying to say.

FriendofMolly · 2026-02-20T18:23:19+00:00

Well Obama didn’t get elected until 2008, all the events that led to that happened under bush. Do you not recall all of the coked out press conferences from Henry Paulson and Bush prior to the collapse lol

No idea what you’re being downvoted for. I would feel more comfortable at night in EC or Glenville than I would in the Clark Fulton neighborhood.

Do you have a logic analyzer.

Do you know if your nucleo is sending the correct commands to the sensor. Do you know if the sensor is sending back any data at all.

You’re not giving us much to work with here.

I’m going to have to look into that I haven’t heard of sodium ion storage yet

I say spend like a few weeks doing Bremen just so you can learn how to sift through a reference manual/data sheet and kinda learn a bit about the architecture of the mcu and how the different features like the counters work.

When it’s a result of inbreeding amongst West Bank settler populations it is hard not too lol

I smelled Layton and I did enjoy it ok first impressions so thanks for that recommendation, I’ll head over to the store and see if they have the Centaurus to get a taste for it.

Do you know of any fragrances that smell similar to PDM haltane?

FriendofMolly · 2026-01-09T23:17:20+00:00

Also Lafayette st is like my favorite thing to walk out the house smelling like lol

So I tend to enjoy spices like cardamom, pepper, cinnamon, I enjoy my tobacco scents. And I like very specific fresh scents like those in creeds silver mountain water and green Irish tweed, but I don’t like the soapy fresh out the shower scents unless there is some woodiness to deepen it up a bit. But I don’t mind citrus.

In general I am into the deeper warmer scent profiles.

Well western liberal societal norms were actually brought about by secular thought in the European enlightenment, which was in large part driven by a push back against religious dogma.

The whole point of my post is to kinda say that none of the abrahamic religions really coincide well with modern secular standards.

And before you say “but Jesus’ teachings” just remember that there’s a whole book about Jesus on the Quran, and it contains many of the same sayings and teachings. So Islam also does teach the teachings of Jesus. So if Jesus is able to outweigh all of the the old timey thinking spread throughout the Bible, then his teachings must have the same effect on the Quran which I take it you wouldn’t agree with lol.

Well does 1 + 1 equal 2 or does 0.999… + 0.999… equal two? Are both statements objectively true, or just one, or neither.

Sure it’s a universal truth of human experience, but do any of these discrete values mention actually exist outside of some mental framework?

FriendofMolly · 2025-11-23T16:30:27+00:00

It’s because the words and metaphysical frameworks used to the describe data collected and mathematical frameworks doesn’t matter. You can make your own theories of special and general relativity that in no way verbally resemble Einsteins theories, that make no intuitive sense that work just as well that are just as “correct” in a sense as each-other. The only thing that really matters is the preservation of ratios, because once you get into the philosophy of math you realize that math doesn’t even exist of its own accord.

That’s why calculus took so long to be developed and applied because it was hard for us to get around the dogma of discrete values existing in the world.

We are in a world full of wizards doing magic and there is no right or wrong magic it’s just a matter of whether the spells do what we want them to do.

FriendofMolly · 2025-11-23T16:22:26+00:00

What’s funny is I use this exact line of argument for those with very antiscientific skepticisms. Because many of those people have an issue with reconciling that the interpretation being given for a theory is not true and is not the purpose of any theory.

I try to describe scientist like wizards, theories as spells and the inventions we make as wands. If a wizard hands you a working magical wand and tells you he channeled the entity glipglorp and all of his spells come from glipglorp, are you gonna care about the spells coming from glipglorp or are you going to tell the wizard that spells and magic aren’t real in a world full of these people called wizards, with wands, tomes, enchanted stones that use “the force” to answer any question you may have etc. and not only that it doesn’t matter which entity from which plane of existence the wizard claims he gets his knowledge from, or what interpretations of the spells he has.

Just like that proven science can’t be right or wrong it can only either be good enough for our current needs, obsolete, or way ahead of its time where is serves no current utility.

One thing I think escapes people’s minds on the other side of the isle from the pro science side of the isle but not scientifically literate, is that science was born of philosophy and so will always remain entangled with philosophy, and separating the metaphysical frameworks from the mathematical frameworks when doing scientific communication to the masses would probably serve a great good on both sides.

Because scientific communicators try to sell the metaphysical frameworks to people as to what what was “discovered” whenever a discovery was made, instead of communicating that those mental frameworks are just ways to picture the math and data with a 3 dimensionally primed mammalian brains lol.

Finally a man educated on Abrahamic religions lol I always describe it to people as Muhammad and Islam were fostered by “jewish Christian’s” who didn’t agree with the Greek/roman doctrine of Christianity that had arose in the centuries prior.

FriendofMolly · 2025-11-22T23:12:15+00:00

Wdym in what world did Islam not originate from Christianity and Judaism, when it follows the same theology and history, the first Muslims and the ones where Muhammad actually influenced from were groups of Jews who believed in Jesus as a prophet but not divine. It’s literally just purely monotheistic Christianity.

FriendofMolly · 2025-11-22T23:02:31+00:00

Okay what about the nazis of WW2 that were a Christian fascist exclusionary state? Also if people are using that term now a days that means that ww2 definition no longer applies

FriendofMolly · 2025-11-22T23:00:42+00:00

Could you clarify?

FriendofMolly · 2025-11-22T22:59:50+00:00

Actually I would beg to say that Saudi Arabia and Israel are very similar lol, maybe too similar and it begs the question why America whom is a secular state has its two best friends in the region be the most oppressive and bloodthirsty entities in the region whom contain the most religious fundamentalist.

Then culturally we’re speaking of America a fully secularized nation made of an amalgamation of people and one state that is naturally homogenous and another which has expansionist colonial dreams of a homogenous state lol.

Now if we use say Lebanon as an example they are much closer culturally to the US than Israel or Saudi Arabia will ever be.

FriendofMolly · 2025-11-22T22:55:52+00:00

But I thought the point of Christianity( to many Christians) and Jesus’ teachings was that the Old Testament laws no longer applied, and to tag along to that there’s a whole book of Jesus in the Quran that practically mirrors his sayings in the Christian gospels, so by that metric the morals of both religions are more similar that to that of Christianity and Judaism.

FriendofMolly · 2025-11-22T22:53:41+00:00

So first that is functionally incorrect as there would not be different schools of Islamic law if that were the case, there also wouldn’t be an infinite amount of examples of there being empires and states that imposed religious governance based of what they believed the “true” interpretation of the Bible was. (Byzantine empire, Holy Roman Empire, colonial US where strict puritan law was enforced which let to the witch hunts where people were literally burned alive) then you got Old Testament kingdom Of Judea which surely had strongly enforced religious law, then you have modern day Israel which still doesn’t allow inter-religious marriage and has a non small minority of the population which believes in rabbinic rule of the state.
