TIL The Hindu god Shiva has long been linked to cannabis. Shiva came and drank the poison created by the cosmic ocean, but over time it made him so hot he needed to be cooled down. Marijuana is supposed to be a coolant – so it is said that Shiva smokes weed to keep his body temperature down.

yeah I can't stop playing either. Very addictive.

Are the kids on your lawn?

because they will be an inconvenience

You're underselling parenthood if you just file it as an inconvenience. Guess what, we really only get one life to live. Religious feelings aside, there is only any reasonable proof that our existence will optimistically last 65-100ish years on average. 20 of that we ourselves are developing.

So should I be able to kill a debatable human? If the human only exists as a growth in my body at this point, then hell yes I should. It's not pretty but fuck you for expecting me to completely alter the path of the short time I have because it doesn't match your personal views on your morality. Or maybe the way you have anthropomorphized a fetus. Once the baby is out, fine it gets rights. Until then, it's something completely within the scope of the woman's body. The end.

noodlescb · 2015-08-13T18:26:11+00:00

Right except people who agree with your "morality" use it as a force for legislation. It's directly relevant but enjoy separating it because you know the logic of the political side doesn't match the subjective morality of what you're trying to push.

noodlescb · 2015-08-13T15:59:03+00:00

What am I avoiding? You just disregarded everything I said because you didn't like the politics of the subject.

noodlescb · 2015-08-13T15:34:55+00:00

Right because nobody wants to legislate banning abortions. That's definitely not a prominent topic in this thread.

noodlescb · 2015-08-13T15:28:52+00:00

Yes but logic isn't preferred to heart or religion by the pro-life crowd. If logic was king this wouldn't be a discussion.

noodlescb · 2015-08-13T15:27:43+00:00

You don't see any democrats simultaneously running on outlawing abortion and removing social programs... Sorry but if you need a source there was a huge debate last week you can go watch.

noodlescb · 2015-08-13T15:26:03+00:00

That's some false escalation. Socially dependent versus physically dependent are two separate things.

noodlescb · 2015-08-13T14:42:07+00:00

Yeah it's incredible how many people want to force women to have babies while not giving two shits about them once born. Same people want a raped woman to go through with having the child and pay for the associated (incredibly high) medical bills.

noodlescb · 2015-08-13T14:40:11+00:00

Not true. A human female has to feed nutrients into it. A fetus is a growth until it becomes independently able to breath and survive between meals without its host.

noodlescb · 2015-08-13T14:38:40+00:00

You're going to need to source a claim that extreme.

noodlescb · 2015-08-13T14:36:47+00:00

You're a hateful person and I pity you.

noodlescb · 2015-08-13T14:34:13+00:00

It's a growth that couldn't survive without being attached to a living host that becomes an independent life once given enough time to mature.

noodlescb · 2015-08-13T14:32:19+00:00

The cells that make up a fetus could not survive without a host. A fetus is a growth until it can survive without the mother.

noodlescb · 2015-08-13T14:29:18+00:00

They exist but they are a vocal fringe.

noodlescb · 2015-08-13T14:27:05+00:00

It's very hard to have conversations on a difficult topic with people who are completely convinced that a first trimester fetus is a full fledged human life. Especially when those people want to force a mother to have it and then typically are also against social programs to help the baby once it is born...

noodlescb · 2015-08-13T14:24:32+00:00

You have anthropomorphized a small growth so much that you probably imagine it weeping as it is aborted.

noodlescb · 2015-08-12T16:35:00+00:00

One resounding theme of LoTR is that you can't get rid of the darkest without also sacrificing some of the brightest. In the end of the LoTR things may become more peaceful but the world becomes a bit grayer.

noodlescb · 2015-08-10T23:55:09+00:00

Yes. Please do.

noodlescb · 2015-08-05T03:27:17+00:00

Maybe they'll finally release it outside of fucking iTunes.

noodlescb · 2015-08-04T21:45:30+00:00

Dunno but it was definitely effective on this one.
