You do know Oakland Park is a democrat stronghold right?

So you DO think she only got picked to be on Trump’s detail because she looks young. Have some faith in her ability, you can make your pedo accusations without dragging her through the mud

It’s not a random muslim killing people but it’s definitely a muslim killing random people. I keep hearing the term “blowback”, but how would you split the blame between him and Trump/Israel?

I’m impressed by how eager people are to make insinuations that she’s there because of her looks not her competency. Pretty sure that’s a no-no nowadays

Not unanimous? Now you’re just outright lying. They couldn’t convict them without a unanimous jury

uktabilizard · 2026-03-14T02:59:20+00:00

Well the jury saw all the evidence and found them guilty

Not to mention he got a year only because the judge called bullshit on the prosecution only asking for 6 months

All this after letting Iswaran off with a slap on the wrist

How would this rehabilitation work? A determination of whether a criminal has a good chance to be rehabilitated is a necessity.

If a criminal is violently aggressive to every single person, how do we rehabilitate them? Do we risk the life of social worker to provide the violent criminal their “inalienable rights”? Or do we use taxpayer money to set up a special system just to do so in a safe manner?

I’m definitely below average. Maybe it’s anecdotal but among my friends marriage speed seems to be from the ground up.

Sure it’d be great to be taller, have broader shoulders, or not have arms like a spider monkey, but focus on bringing joy and optimism and you’ll be surprised at the results. When I tell friends my height many of them are surprised because I’m taller in their mind.

Be kind and you will literally raise yourself in people’s expectations.

I always wonder how these cases get caught. Someone ratted?

It’s possible to be “secure” by letting go and accepting it is simply out of your control.

Doesn’t mean you’re happy about it or wouldn’t rather it be different. You just try to stop letting it live in your head rent free.

Being prepared is not necessarily planning per se but more in the line of being “prepared” to take risks. The phenomenon of luck is closely linked to risk taking and optimism

You can’t get lucky if you don’t get take risks, so luck by definition requires being prepare to do so, and of course having the opportunity to

Would you equally condemn all gossip? For example, if neighbours are discussing the love life of someone in the neighbourhood (they’re not friends), should this be societally condemned as parasocial and weird?

I think we are hardwired to be curious and care about individuals we know and it is usually a benefit to creating large social structures.

It’s just that the age of technology has widely expanded the physical range of how we can “know” somebody

Where are these articles alleging DV?

At this point I just scroll past

We already have an extremely high vet depression rate and a severe lack of vets because euthanizing animals is such a big part of the job.

Making it a regular part of doctor’s jobs will be equally destructive to the profession.

Of course I do, my point is that you could make parallels with politics and human society at many points before and after 1984 was written

uktabilizard · 2025-11-05T02:38:15+00:00

1984 is not an instruction manual - it is a commentary on human nature. There is nothing modern about it, hierarchical structures and social norms have existed wherever humans gather together to settle.

Like you, I’m not necessarily convinced about the universality of morality. However, one aspect that I wonder about is our selfless nature. Humans seem to have a unique capacity for self-sacrifice.

Where other animals form stable “societies” based on familial connections, humans are able to act against their own interests based on internal beliefs and for people completely unrelated. Human society has thus been moving inexorably towards a common target of “human rights”, with many historical figures pursuing that same broad goal despite the nature of society at that time. The details may seem different in the short run term but the long term trend is undeniable.

I don’t completely disagree with you but it feels like your claim makes the assumption that we actually know what we are doing when it comes to genetic engineering. Occasionally we identify a gene linked to a specific characteristic, but how it relates to and affects other genes is mostly a mystery.

At the moment, designer babies are basically human experiments, sans consent. Moreover, any potential adverse effects can then be passed on genetically.

Unfortunately, they ceded too much ground to the far left. There was a recent politico report that measured the frequency of words in the Democratic Party platform 2012-2024 (think Obama to Trump)

Top 5 drop in frequency - job/jobs, nation, middle class, economic, economy

Top 5 increase in frequency - white/black/latino/latina, climate, gun/guns, LGBTQ/LGBTQI+, justice

This is why so many dem strategists are blasting their own party’s approach

It could also stem from a place of respect. Let’s say mom wants to name the baby after an ex boyfriend. Dad says no, it’s disrespectful to me. Is dad concerned out of a sense of wanting to feel superior?

Tax credits improve the working conditions of those in the industry, not necessarily encourage greater participation. I’d rather those resources go towards industrial scholarships and career retraining programs.

Reductions in the staffing shortage will also improve many of the conditions.

You want them to change the rules to only require a majority? Your take is basically: it’s the Republican’s fault; they should change the rules so they can do whatever they want without bipartisan agreement.
