Okay but that comment isn’t a long-winded ramble and you didn’t mention that in your previous comment, only the emoji. Weird antisocial behavior on your part.

I’m not a dude or a bro. I don’t care how you justify it.

Why do you downvote the namaste emoji?


I sure hope not. I saw how that went in the Time Machine remake!


Maybe we’ll get lucky, and by the time the helium supply is restored, we’ve done away with the shitty not-really-AI craze, saving more helium for things of use to humanity.


Trans rights are get-rid-of-that-yee-yee-ass-haircut rights!

That’s a hard line to walk. Being so afraid your kid will get hit by a car that you do something that could get you sent to prison, where you certainly won’t be able to do anything for said kid.
The city officials need to be the ones facing consequences for this, not him.


I am of the opinion that rights come from understanding, that recognizing and respecting them is a hallmark of advancing human understanding. States/religions/whatever that lack rights are either less advanced in understanding or motivated to avoid recognizing/respecting them.


I’d say that whether or not it’s in a simulation doesn’t matter. If the beings you created were recognizable as people (human or otherwise) then they have rights and you’d be trampling those rights if you ended their existence. The creation of such life should not be done without an appropriate sense of responsibility.


Right! Unless he had the enots ytilaer he should have been powerless there.


You’d think so, but get this: all the stones only work in the reality they’re from, and are worthless trinkets in any other reality. It’s ridiculous! They’re not called the “infinity (of only this reality) stones” ffs!


Yes, correct, the logic of reality does not apply to works of fiction, which may have their own rules that may or may not be logical or internally consistent.


Oh, are you starting to get the picture?


And while we’re at it, wouldn’t the Reality Stone trump all the others because reality is all there is and contains everything the other stones represent?


Damn, Trump even put tariffs on imports from Krypton!


It’s cherry picking because it’s choosing which pieces of the bible to give credence to and which to ignore based on preference.
Absolutely not. You can give 100% credence to the bible without the idea that every single word of it is a personal commandment from God to you.
Paul was chosen as God’s chosen vessel
I don’t agree. How do you know that? By what means was this determined? Don’t try to tell me; ask yourself these questions.
Jesus did say to love thy neighbor, yet it is easy to find examples of God condoning slavery and demanding genocides.
No, it’s easy to find stories where people claimed God condoned those things. You seem to be taking a fundamentalist approach to scripture here, and it’s an approach I just don’t agree with. It’s based on traditions created and perpetuated by the sickest, most evil, lying, stealing, child-raping people throughout history. Why the fuck would you take their word for it?
Anyway nice talkin to ya, have a nice day.


It’s not cherry picking to recognize who was talking to who, and whether or not their words should be taken as divine instruction to each individual who reads them. It’s just using your head instead of letting religious authorities put onerous demands on the populace. Jesus said love your neighbor as you love yourself and do unto others as you’d have them do unto you. Anything that contradicts that is obviously not to be taken seriously (such as disowning your kids for being gay/trans).
What a jerk. Good riddance I guess.
