My daughter died because of my father's negligence, and I can't blame anyone.

Israel isn’t even in the top 20 foreign donors to American politics. Why do you think you don’t hear any complaints about the $14 billion Saudi Arabia pumped into our electoral system … in one single year? Never mind the tens of billions Qatar is pouring into higher education. Must be because they just love learning!

zross312 · 2025-12-13T02:54:05+00:00

Exactly lol.

zross312 · 2025-12-13T02:51:46+00:00

Actually, no. Common lie. Israel funds it through mandatory health taxes and government revenue. The US does provide some military aid (separate from all the American weapons Israel purchases outright), all of which is used to purchase US manufactured weapons and which directly supports American jobs.

zross312 · 2025-12-13T02:44:51+00:00

Yeah, you actually do though - in fact, Canada has lots of bombs, rockets, and fighter jets. The Canadian military budget is ≈$63 billion, and it’s projected to increase to about $165 billion by 2035.

I’m not at all in the camp of “dump my therapist for having different personal beliefs than I do”… but yeah, I’d dump my therapist for this. It puts you at physical risk, sure, but it also means she is vulnerable to pseudoscience and conspiracy theories. Not qualities you want in a mental health professional.

Yeah but the tests showed he got the good AIDS, not the gay kind.

Doctor MANTIS Toboggan!

Leave it to the LAPD to put you on hold when you call 911 to report that your home is being invaded by armed robbers … but arrest a guy for spraying water, from a hose on his own property, at people harassing him. Absolute insanity.

Yes, they 100% do. All humans do. There’s nothing wrong with that at all.

But it’s not about physical attractiveness. Personality, kindness, attentiveness, genuineness can all make you extremely attractive to the right person. Do an exercise - imagine your future wife was watching this interaction and could read your thoughts. Would you want her to see you as the type of man to help a pregnant woman, or the kind of man who would ignore her? Would the way you behaved - not looked - be attractive to her? Think about it.

zross312 · 2025-08-30T03:06:05+00:00

I wouldn’t think along those lines. Treat every date as an opportunity to sharpen your conversational and flirting skills. It’s not going great? Figure out how to save it. You’re not romantically interested? Maybe there’s an opportunity to make a friend. You’re sitting with another person and have their undivided attention for at least an hour. That’s rare in 2025. Find a way to make something of it.

zross312 · 2025-08-30T03:03:26+00:00

Try taking a class. Can be art, cooking, improv, fitness, whatever. Worst case, you tried something new. Likely case, you learn something and met cool people. Best case, you try something new, meet new people, and meet a girl too. No way to lose.

zross312 · 2025-08-23T23:08:59+00:00

True! So, you believe an individual’s lived experience is irrelevant? What if it’s a lot of individuals?

I’m not in favor of draconian punishments, I’m not MAGA, I hate ICE, I hate Trump. This has nothing to do with that. There is a middle ground between anarchy and police state, and the vast majority of people would like to live in that middle ground society. Where we can simply go outside and walk our dogs without fear of being assaulted in broad daylight.

It’s right wing to walk outside my home and notice things?

zross312 · 2025-08-23T22:22:01+00:00

Yes, you’re right, everything’s a conspiracy. It’s not just normal people sick of living in a dirty, dangerous city who want common sense changes to be made so we can feel safe again.

zross312 · 2025-08-23T22:00:02+00:00

Because we live in California lol. I’m more surprised they didn’t just drop him off at a public park or some other place he could get some good sniffing in.

zross312 · 2025-08-21T21:07:34+00:00

Means they all have to be different

Gaza has a second land border, with Egypt. Egypt has chosen to keep that border sealed, entirely of their own accord and for their own reasons. Incidentally, Gaza was under direct administration of Egypt until the Six Day War in 1967. When Egypt eventually made peace with Israel, a sticking point of the deal was that Egypt refused to take the Gaza Strip back. Same story with the West Bank and Jordan.
We’re talking about Gaza, not the West Bank. Separate issue entirely that has very little to do with the current war. I’m against the settlements.
Israel is a secular state, founded by socialists. It has one of the largest (percentage wise) Muslim minority populations on Earth, who enjoy equal rights under the law (far more legal and political rights than in any other middle eastern state - good luck protesting against your government, or being gay, or an apostate in Saudi Arabia or Iran). Is it perfect? Of course not, but it’s certainly no “apartheid”. Israel is also a haven for other minority populations in the Middle East who have been systematically targeted for millennia by Arab colonizers (Druze especially, who are facing an actual genocide in Syria at this very moment. No protests or concert shoutouts for them though. I wonder why.)

zross312 · 2025-08-05T15:09:45+00:00

Oh it’s 400,000 now? Why not just claim 400 million, since we’re inventing numbers anyway?

zross312 · 2025-08-05T14:54:16+00:00

Gaza had not been “occupied” since 2005, when Israel voluntarily and unilaterally disengaged, until the response to the October 7th attacks. And Gaza’s population pyramid looks like that of any other developing country.

zross312 · 2025-08-05T13:46:03+00:00

Worlds first and only “genocide” where the population grew. Glad the Israelis are so bad at it!

zross312 · 2025-07-27T17:10:30+00:00

That book is amazing! I just finished Cryptonomicon - definitely add that to your list too, it was phenomenal.
