Sort of. As far as I remember, his primary motivation wasn't to get treatment (he actually doesn't want to get treated at all at first), it was to leave behind enough money for his family.

Regarding Koko, it isn't really clear if she really was able to have complex dialogues, or if that was wishful thinking on the part of her trainers. In general, I don't think there are any animals that are as intelligent as adult

He should not be punished for the 6ft guidelines or the mask mandates (I agree that it's better to be safe than sorry). However, Fauci did promote the idea that the lab leak theory was a racist conspiracy theory, and he denied that the

That's a strange definition, because it excludes the majority of the world's dark skinned population. If only the descendants of slaves brought to the Americas can claim to be Black, then there are no Black people in Africa. Hell,

It seems to me that this practice is just another example of putting white people on a pedestal. If all other racial groups have "a shared sense of identity and community", then it implies that being white is the default; that the

What exactly is the difference between your "self organizing communities" and the cities and towns we have today? Nobody is forcing you to live in a city, you are free to move to any other city in the country.

Because if there is someone who is at fault, their reaction will be to throw someone else under the bus. So you may end up with a situation where the person being blamed isn't actually the person responsible for the accident.

If it's your first time in a new city, you probably just want to get to your hotel as fast as possible instead of learning the transit system.

I agree about fire, but I'm pretty sure you can count bees making honey as cooking.

That's exactly what happened in the latest movie, where Goku and Vegeta missed a phone call so Gohan had to take care of the bad guys.

What's wrong with environmental determinism? Obviously our civilizations are influenced by our environment; that's why Egypt formed around the Nile delta, instead of forming a hundred miles west in the Sahara.

You're right, these companies do have the right to censor speech that they disagree with. However, if they do that, then they are responsible for any speech that they do not censor. So for instance, if someone posts a libelous statemen

Nah, Luke's story in the TLJ was actually interesting; he lost his faith, and had to be reminded of it by the next generation. It kind of mirrors Obi-Wan's story in the original 6 movies, where he no longer believed that Anakin Sk

Harm prevention is definitely not new; books have been subject to censorship for centuries. Just look at the U.S., where we had the Hays code and the Comic Code Authority. The only difference is that now, Harm is defined by California tech

It sounds like by "base needs", you mean basic, or foundational needs. Like, making sure that people have food, water and shelter. Which makes sense, if the foundation is strong, you can build a lot on top of it.

Because a lot of people hate nuclear energy, and don't support building new plants. So it's not really a choice between nuclear and renewables, it's a choice between renewables and fossil fuel power plants. Besides, I think t
