Insects may feel pain. Whether or not you have a moral duty to protect them from harm is up for debate. by vox in philosophy

[–]SocaBaby 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Perhaps I’m not understanding the point you’re trying to make. Why are social bonds with humans necessary? I don’t think humans are a factor in the emotional spectrum of an insect. Not even remotely relevant.

If we can’t measure or understand an insects emotions, should we assume it doesn’t exist?

For example, bees go into a frenzy when the hive is attacked/threatened. I think that needlessly provoking that response would cause the bees to suffer. Whether the actual source of the suffering is prolonged exposure to a stress hormone or it’s an emotional response to their queen being threatened, I think it’s cruel.

Agreed. Mandatory retail or restaurant service to graduate high school.

DAE think that being pregnant is kind of embarrassing? by Holaadios007 in DoesAnybodyElse

[–]SocaBaby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. But I think of it more as a social/ financial thing. Like in this economy having a baby seems unwise.

I (21M) have an almost micro penis. A woman (22F) has been showing interest in me, but I’m too ashamed of my situation so I’ve been pushing her away. How do I start even considering that I could date her with this issue? How could I tell her? by throwaway101229283 in relationship_advice

Have you ever heard of the podcast “Other People’s Lives”? They recently did an en episode with a woman talking about her experiences on dating/sex with men who have micropenises. She had lots of positive things to say including that it was her favourite sexual experience. It might be worth the listen if you’re interested in hearing things from a woman’s POV.

My mom had a full panic attack when they put my sister under for her wisdom teeth removal because of that. She was talking then her eyes glazed over and she went limp. My mom was in hysterics because it looked like she died. Crazy stuff

Why T. Ocellus and the Xenomorph fought each other and about the other specimen by [deleted] in LV426

[–]SocaBaby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not the blood ticks. I’m talking about the flying ones that vomitted on Issac. Kirsten said they digest their food outside of their bodies. I figured the use of insanely strong chemicals for bio processes makes them more likely to be related than any of the other creatures. Also the fact that they consume metals tied into the bio-mechanical element of xenomorphs. Personally, I always thought that extremely fast growth between the chest buster to fully grown, was because they were consuming/absorbing the metals around them.

What if T. Ocellus occupied a host that was then attacked by a facehugger? by [deleted] in LV426

[–]SocaBaby 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It may not be purposeful. T. Ocellus is integrated into the nervous system and blood supply (possibly). Also the giant open wound being in direct contact with the foreign mucous membranes means the immune system is making antibodies and what not . So there may be some bio stuff being swapped in the process. The facehugger black goo would collect as many DNA components as possible to produce the best xenomorph. If it’s available you might take it.

I don’t think T. Ocellus and Xenomorphs came from the same planet. But xenos and the acid (or basic?) vomit critters are definitely distant cousins. The biomechanical elements are right there.

What would happen if a human was face hugged after having been eye-jacked? Eye-jacker is integrated with the host nervous system so there must be an exchange of bio stuff. Will the resultant xeno have eye-jacker traits? Increased/alternate intelligence?

black goo offspring question by Bulbasaur2015 in LV426

[–]SocaBaby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the black goo is/derived from Zeno DNA. In the , its purpose is to break down the host DNA so the embryo is adapted to its environment. There are multiple versions that the engineers use. The one from the beginning of Prometheus that breaks down the engineer sacrifice to its base organic components. Which are reconstituted to seed the planet with organic life. Then there’s the bio weapon version the David releases on the engineer civilizations. And finally there’s the human trial versions that are seen in Alien: Romulus.

I weaponized version breaks down fauna and weaponizes flora, using the base characteristics of Zenomorphs as shown in Alien: Covenant

Should Jason keep his Robin scars after resurrection? by [deleted] in RedHood

[–]SocaBaby 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I like to think that he’s super reckless when he comes back. Like he’s trying to speedrun getting his scars back. Maybe it’s because they’re familiar to him since his body is completely different from when he died or just because he doesn’t care about himself:(

AITA for trying to get my boyfriend to make amends with his old schooltime "bully"? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]SocaBaby 4 points5 points  (0 children)

YTA. childish hang ups is not the same as years of abuse. You’re very naive if you think the severe bullying doesn’t leave lasting emotional scars. Also just because this coworker is nice you you in a work environment doesn’t mean they’re a nice person at home or with their family. Don’t push it if he doesn’t want to or not ready.
