"don't want to stay married" is worth exploring. Why don't they want to? Maybe a part of that is attitude and culture and values, and not so much unreconcilable problems. If they felt strongly about providing for their c

Good parents don't just create good children, they also create good parents . Government programs (as presently conceived) will never catch up in terms of effectiveness because they don't have this self-replicating behavior. They

It's a bandwagon thing. Founders and early joiners of a movement are very different from people who join after a movement is already successful/catching on (perhaps widely or perhaps in one area/subculture). After something b

I assume you mean "out group". I will add that confirmation bias is powerful: all of the listed traits are easy to find almost anywhere you look. One exception might be traditionalism, but lots of revolutionaries quickly pivot to

"Deserves" is a strange word in this context. Did the ukranian software engineers "deserve" to get invaded? No, but it happened. But you seem to be saying that if they defend themselves, they do deserve to get invaded? Y

While what you say makes sense, the only solution is if people start calling out politicians within their party. Criticizing the other party doesn't promote internal change.

If we wanted to discuss that topic, is this article the right place to start? What is Florida's process? How does it differ from other states? What is the role of human discretion? What are some other examples of how this process plays

"Banning books without any detail is the story." But is it? The headline seems focused on the hot-button issue rather than the process. And it provides no context about the scope of the problem (is Florida's process an outlie

At a certain point it's a game appliance (e.g. Nintendo Switch) rather than a computer. Stallman would probably say that's fine. The problem is mixing purposes to the point where most people don't even have access to a free c

Why does it matter whether one's ancestors were indigenous or not? Either they found some land that was uncontended, or they fought for it. I guess finding and making use of uncontended land has the moral high ground, but I think it&#x

The author still doesn't seem to quite get it. The problem is that seeing the dish was one of his wife's primary interactions with him, and it was a negative one. She doesn't see him most of the day, I'm guessing, but sh

Everything about this article is great except the clickbait title: New information and number (new to me, I mean), historical context, and nuanced analysis on a charged issue. I feel obligated to re-subscribe.

It's like class-action lawsuits: sure, maybe you get $2.43, but the lawyers are really the beneficiaries. The individual is just used to justify the whole thing.
