Hard disagree. I tuned in late, but that foul that caused her to foul out in that Iowa game was was very questionable in my opinion, and I thought she handled that much more maturely than star college athletes usually do. I did tune in late though, and I'm sucker for those eyelashes.

One of my favorites! The character of the adoptive mother is the one who made the deepest impression on me. I think I would get a lot out of rereading it.

I assume non-citizens would hypothetically serve non-combat roles, if there was a need for draft probably would need a lot of ditch diggers.

Ineffective was not the right word, but it seems that some of the tests give a lot of false positives. If using it to screen embryos you'd delete a lot of healthy ones. If you have a limited number of embryos or a high rate of failure of embryo to pregnancy it might not be wise to use this as screening criteria.

I'm against all of it and think adding layers of qualifiers pointless.


My comment was more in response to an earlier one of yours

So in your view the current model where mostly unlimited animal testing is allowed, we should instead jump to human embryos, edit them and allow them to grow as fetuses, and as humans under comparable conditions and then test the editing results through IQ tests? Or do you think that editing of embryos should be allowed for research but not allowed to progress further toward human birth?


Edit: Or do you see embryo editing as something that should be allowed as it exists in its current state that should be completely allowed with no exceptions like elective surgery totally separate from medicine entirely?

Aren't there already gene therapies being developed? Isn't it instead that testing on human subjects is subject to agreed upon international standards? I think you can do this research but you are subject to Institutional Review Boards or your country equivalent. I don't see any involvement of neo-luddites in preventing this research, unless you consider human rights to be a stumbling block.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Declaration_of_Helsinki

Watching dinosaurs attack people in thrilling ways is pretty awesome in my book. If the movie doesn't feature that I'd be disappointed. Did you not enjoy it because it was a weak plot? I think some of the previous sequels have beat some of the themes extinct (I never saw the Chris Pratt one). But I expect it to be like another action movie. I intend on seeing it soon.

Tim Dillon best hits in my opinion: the corporate steak house rant, 'best podcaster in the world', 'leaving austin', describing 'big mike' to Joe Rogan, the unaired TBS tournament of laughs material, his rant on gin martinis.

I liked it, but it does have some significant problems. It succeeds as spectacle but not as a narrative. I want more film-makers to take chances like this, but also this wasn't a masterpiece.

Ada or Ador a family chronicle by Nabokov has one duel; also I think two attempts or near misses to duel . In the duel that does take place there is more discussion of seconds.

I have similar experiences. I also think being the organizer is a thankless job but one people appreciate even if they never say it.  I've seen first-hand that friendships are people who show up. That being said its only you who can say whether its worth the effort.

The invalidating feature to me is her age. The status of being adult is what is causing these relationships to be coercive and manipulative. Taylor Swift with other adults (regardless of status of either adult) is not considered since age difference is not a factor.

I do not see the correlation between attending concerts and sexual activity with the performer. While underage fans might desire such a sexual relationship, for the reasons I spelled out before if the adult allows or facilitates such activity it's sexual coercion and manipulation by the mere fact that one party is an adult and the other is a fourteen year old.
