What if every time you slammed your driver's side door the window shattered and couldn't be just replaced, but you had to buy a whole new car. Well, think about your phone. Why do we put up with this? I told that to a young woman at the bar and she said, "But I was the one who dropped it." Well, name an item that you use regularly that you haven't dropped. The companies KNOW you are going to drop it. We can do better than to just bend over every time a company wants to fuck us in the ass.
It’s interesting how guys say ‘I’m gonna kick your ass’,
but then they punch and kick everything EXCEPT your ass.

Today while driving, I was eating a sandwich. The
construction guy in front of me was also eating a sandwich. As I passed him, I
raised my sandwich and he raised his, and we shared a moment of mutual sandwich
appreciation.
I am not impressed that the dog can do this. My question is, how in the fuck did he learn how to do it?

Back
when Pope Francis was still going by the handle of Jorge Bergoglio, he earned a
master's degree in chemistry from the University of Buenos Aires. Modern-day
science writer and Jesuit Guy Consolmagno studies asteroids and meteorites at
the Vatican Observatory... “Doing science is like playing a game with God,
playing a puzzle with God,” Consolmagno once told the Canadian Broadcasting
Center. “God sets the puzzles, and after I can solve one, I can hear him
cheering, 'Great, that was wonderful, now here’s the next one.' It’s the way I
can interact with the Creator... Religion needs science to keep it away from
superstition and keep it close to reality, to protect it from creationism,
which at the end of the day is a kind of paganism -- it's turning God into a
nature god."
I'm sorry, but when you sit two people at a table to discuss ANYTHING and one of them is allowed to just DECLARE that something happened or didn't happen because of magic, then I say the discussion is pretty much over. But maybe that's just me.
Everything we feared about communism – that we would lose
our houses and savings and be forced to labor eternally for meager wages with
no voice in the system – has come true under capitalism.
I saw a pair of ear protectors so good they were “rated for a

I’m guessing cannibals are very punctual for dinner, or

The
NSA has a research facility in Bluffdale, Utah. It's loaded with
"metadata-gathering computers that currently require 1.7 million gallons
of water a day" to keep them cool. Utah representative Marc Roberts (R)
has introduced HB161, which would shut off their water supply. If the bill
passes, how will the federal government respond?
I'VE GOT A NICE POST FOR YOU TOMORROW.

Hi! It's been a while, eh?
The site's as good as I remember it.

The wrongheadedness of Consolmagno's position is evident when he says "doing science is like playing a puzzle with God".
Actually, doing science is skeptically and rationally evaluating reality via methodological naturalism. Equating science with God-play thus makes Consolmagno hypocritically guilty of the nature-as-god "paganism" he denigrates.
It's laughable that he talks about an interfering deity—one which "sets puzzles" and "cheers" when they're solved—and simultaneously worries about superstition. He also seems to think superstition is distinct from proper religion.
Brother, they're one and the same. That idea you call "god" is synonymous with superstition.
