There is a time for nuance and there is a time for condemnation. This isn't the time for nuance. It's a government telling people what they can and can't do. It's deprioritizing happiness for merely ideological reasons.

It's impossible to be perfect but what matters is changing the odds. Only around 1.5% of the population is lesbian gay or bisexual. If that translates to prison guards we should see a pretty major improvement.

Not for any single reason. There's the law of the excluded middle, a principle from logic. There is evolutionary thinking. There are anecdotal accounts of transexuals of the difference in sex drive. There's the physical size and

My view on it is quite different. You have this idea of yours, you have the historic idea that children are still property of parents in an important way, there's the historical guarding of female chastity/purity and you have the

Well if two people are stranded for some time on a deserted island and one is male and the other is female then they will probably have sex. For the boys they don't have opportunities other than possibly these guards. As any male who h

Letting go of rent control would make some sense. It would push the less educated poor out of the most desirable locations and allow sophisticated city companies to hire well educated tech talent from all over the country. Although obviousl

I'm wishing you best of luck on your recovery. I also have a bit of unsolicited advice for those in a similar situation. it's better to pace things. If I find myself working at 1am, I know I'm acting silly. My employer won&#x

The combination of this sort of data mining of circumstantial evidence combined with a justice system that mostly relies on the hunches of bunch of randoms for convictions, yes I can see how potentially innocent people will end up going to

Am I reading this correctly and does it indeed say that your chances against Delta are lower with the vaccin than without? Or is it just a more minor concern that needs addressing eventually?

The scary thing about this is it talks about an authoritarian measure in China like it's a positive thing to have the government interfere in people's lives to such an extent.

Interesting idea but not really an interesting proposition without maps and whatsapp/email. It's nice these are planned but planning means little. I prefer just disabling apps via ADB on Android when I need a non distracting phone

Except it's not that way. You can't quit your job except to take another one. They have things like 'real estate market' and 'taxes' to ensure that. You can't quit in the way most people imagine quitting.

I used to host on there. A lot of guests did not use their own account. Of one such person I later found out he sold stolen watches. But I suppose uploading a fake id wouldn't be impossible either. Airbnb primarily relies on its review
