    Historic rope work

    This is like watching men in prayer. All for one and one for all . . .

    Do the World a Favor: Dump Trump

    If thus far you have avoided watching the January 6 Commission hearings because you can’t be bothered, or because you think they are a Democratic ploy, or because you still think Trump is the chosen one, or because you simply can’t handle the truth, I challenge you to muster the courage to watch...

    Fuck

    Why would someone care what this man [Edit: Thomas Sowell] has to say? Isn't this "argument" (which I would argue has no place under this thread's heading) about whether the words/concepts of intellectualism and liberalism are interchangeable? Can't we simply agree that there are many...

    Fuck

    I urge @climbingmonkey24 not to hit and run in this thread. It's not enough to only call out for help. When help arrives, it becomes your responsibility to work with others toward a safe rescue. That involves an informational give and take: Does it hurt when I press there? Can you move your...

    Fuck

    You are not alone, as evidenced by the three pages of caring responses to your messages. There's not one person above who has not been trying to empathize with you and help you. You say that this is the only place you can rant; if so, please use the help you find here and quell any thoughts that...

    Fuck

    Right! That is the deal. And a good, honest start might be to define what addictions, exactly, we are talking about. As someone who has been a compulsive overeater, a chronic drinker, a drug user, and so on, I am baffled by your mention of "food," so please be clear about what's troubling you...

    Fuck

    Yeah, many folks occasionally feel the need to touch base when they're flying high. Here, we use the phone and call it "Drunk-Dialing." When such ad hoc conversations end with cheer and good will, nothing better . . . . Meanwhile, I know for sure that good-willed, open-minded persons need never...

    Oak suckers

    That is exactly what my 100 or so beech trees are doing this year, as the nematodes work to kill them. I have never seen so many root suckers, most only inches apart from each other--growing almost like bushes! I came to the same conclusion: These trees are using every trick they have left to...

    Turning down work.

    Hi Dan, I repaired major appliances for 22 years, 16 of them self-employed. My work ethic was as you describe and my pricing was low enough that I never really made an adequate living. As I was mostly self-taught, the onslaught of digital controls increasingly forced me to walk away from jobs...

    Roe v Wade overturned

    Wow, I never saw the entire video! Unbelievable!

    Well, @Dan Cobb, I thought you'd be exhausted from defending logic and sanity on the other thread. But let's have at it!

    Roe v Wade overturned

    In fact, statistically, and in the real world, it may very well negate her chances. You just refuse to accept other people's realities. You can only see their situation from your perspective: You are carrying an unwanted child, you go to your Pro-Life Center, you go to your church, you find...

    Roe v Wade overturned

    And if the others have one bit of compassion and sanity left, they will be moved by the brave telling of your story and end this ridiculous debate. In their view, the unborn always trump the living, and they feel they have the right to impose their own "morality" on those who disagree. I fear...

    Roe v Wade overturned

    In your view. “Indeed, mother bears, felines, canids, primates, and many species of rodents—from rats to prairie dogs—have all been seen killing and eating their young. Insects, fish, amphibians, reptiles, and birds also have been implicated in killing, and sometimes devouring, the young of...

    Roe v Wade overturned

    With respect, that's sort of like saying, "I'm not a racist because I work with black people and they're not all bad." If I may, I think @Stumpsprouts main point was that forcing a woman to carry to term initiates a series of societal challenges that may very well negate the WOMAN's aspirations...

    Roe v Wade overturned

    With respect, it's plain to see that you've never been raped--or been forced to carry a vicious man's baby for NINE months. This discussion could be a lot more constructive if we all could empathetically put ourselves in the place of the women whose bodies we wish to control.

    Like I say, if men could get pregnant, abortions would be available at local barbershops.....

    Roe v Wade overturned

    And your solution to that breakdown of society--which you describe very accurately--is to bring more unwanted, un-cared-for children into the situation . . .
