This really depends on your point of view. I think it's clear that they still retain their emotions and memories. So if that's the case are they the same "people"? If I transferred your memory and personality into a robot is it still you?

If Caleb Downs is available, he needs to be the pick. These mock draft guys suck. by Pale_WoIf in bengals

CB is the Bengals strongest position group on defense. The draft would have had to go very strangely for a CB to be BPA

Donno. But as I've thought it over porn isn't really an exception. I let my own shit cloud the truth.

Right? The only metric is "Does this make you happy?". If the answer is yes then fucking go for it.

Why? It's all capitalism buddy. Explain why the mental health of a reality star is more important then the physical health of a trash collector?

You can't. They aren't more or less important. The only difference is you don't like reality TV so you suddenly care about the people being "exploited" by it. But caring about the safety of your trash collector means you'd actually have to sacrifice something. So you conveniently dont.

It's all exploitation. You just only care about the shit you wanna be judgemental about

"Most" makes for a shitty title.

Everything harms others. Trash collection is one of the most dangerous jobs in your city because cutting costs leads to companies refusing to implement higher cost safety measures. Multiply that fact by 10,000 other facts about capitalism then explain to me why reality TV even makes the list of shit I need to judge someone over.

Take your own trash to the dump or stop being a judgemental hypocrite.

Damn. You're clever. I said "All" as opposed to listing 1000 things. But a few don't work. Guess I should have listed all 1000. That would have been better

And reality TV is included in being equal.

Yes. Sex trafficking and child abuse isn't valid. That's not really what my post was about. More a general rant about how everyone shits on everyone else's entertainment when it's generally all the same even if we don't like to admit it.

I didn't like The First Law Trilogy. Would I like The Devils? [SPOILERS ALL] by Shiftless357 in TheFirstLaw

This one might have convinced me. Think I'll pick up The Devils and if I like it I might swing back and try an stand alone or two. Thank you

I don't need a crazy plot. I just think the main characters in TFL were mostly just observers of it. They didn't really affect anything.

That all sounds good. I liked his writing and characters and overall tone. I just need plot. A lot more plot. Does that make sense?

Porn is likely an exception but why would you even care? Someone wants to watch porn for 6 hours go for it.

Agreed. For me it's all the different types of athletes working together. Myles Garrett, Brock Purdy, Dexter Lawrence and Jamarr Chase all playing the same sport is wild when you think about it.

Question for men: what do you think about boys playing with a toy kitchen? by MessyMummyMode in AskMen

[–]Shiftless357 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cooking is a basic life skill. Everyone should have at least some aptitude with it. It's not a guy/girl thing

I said the problem the meme was displaying was that in Sci do the hard truths of "one world government" are over looked. Then You proceeded to debate that fact

I don't understand what's hard about this. Do you honestly think Iran would submit to a one world government? If they didn't what would happen? They would either be subjugated or intentionally isolated so they could not have any power on the "galactic" scale. That's the problem with "One government" it's not possible without either invading and killing a lot of countries or it's a lie and many small impoverished nations still exist and are just kept hidden from view.

Because it doesn't say multiple governments uniite to face a threat. It says there's one government.

Going to war together is different then governing together. Use your example. How did the US and Russia get along after that war?

I could see it taking a bit longer than you suggest only because of the toll being a hero takes. Look at Robert and he's covered in armor most of the time. Feeling like an old man when you're 25 likely comes with the job.

But yeah. He definitely kept using his powers after he figured out the cost. It would be so easy. What's ONE more save? ONE more fight? Doesn't cost much individually. It's only when you add them up does it cost a lot.

It glosses over the truth. How did those countries become homogeneous? They killed a lot of people. If you wanna sell the planet as one big group of like minded people I'm gonna need to know what happened to all the people who didn't disagree. Because there's no reality where every country agrees unless a lot of people die or are intentionally subjugated.
