I'm not condoning Adams nor have I ever heard this phrase used as a dog whistle. I am just pointing out that some polling organization did some work and found what to me was a surprising result. Dog whistle or not, I am personally surp

Here is the thing though. If all the perfectly good pairs of shoes were destroyed, the reported might have wrote an equally aggrieved piece about the shameful way these perfectly good shoes were not reused. Seems like they set up a strawman

I kind of see where the "outrage" might come from in the lead as apparently they promised that the shoes were going to be recycled. However, the mantra is "reduce reuse recycle". Clearly it is better in the save the plan

I enjoy answering questions but like the poster, I kind of hold my breath any time I do. Toxic downvoting is not just a question thing. There are people who will downvote any and every answer even a correct one to a question they feel is un

I consult for a company that is based in a city with scooters. My view is that they are essentially industrial garbage. People leave them on the sidewalk blocking pedestrians at best. At worst they end up in the canal or in the middle of th

A tight underarmor shirt makes me feel compacted and muscular rather than fat. Perhaps that is just me though. I'm in good shape and coach youth sports. Your mileage may vary.

How would they provide personalized search results without tracking you? I dont want this to come across as condoning the tracking. I hate being snooped on. But everything including your vacuum tries to track you. Anything that markets itse

I cant read the article, but from the headline it seems insane. I'm all for the proper treatment of animals. I live on a ranch with a herd of horses. That said, if my neighbor was mistreating their animals I would call some authority l

Do you see the future as a star trek style utopia or as a star wars style dystopia? Personally I used to see it as one but now as I get older I see it as the other.
