    Kate Middleton's cancer news

    Not something that's easy to deal with and even more so when you're in the public eye the way she is. It's a curious balancing act in a situation like hers, where she's a very public figure (and as one who married into the family she chose to be there, unlike William who was born into it) and...

    Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire

    Maybe when it's on Netflix or something.

    Spare the Feelings or Don't Bear False Witness?

    I suppose a lot depends on the situation, and the question of what our message actually conveys. To take an extreme example, if you've got a young woman who finds herself pregnant and just isn't ready to be a mother. She doesn't really want an abortion but doesn't see much option, so she goes...

    God's apology to mankind

    You obviously don't know me very well. Like, you don't know me at all. I'm not interested in watching videos, it's a pretty simple concept. If you want to explain the idea in your own words rather than simply dumping someone else's work in a thread that's a different matter. But hey, I'm glad...

    God's apology to mankind

    ... and yet here you are, posting things nobody else consented to seeing appearing on their feed. Fate does have a certain irony to it, no? I guess next time God creates something he should ask Lucian for permission to do it that way? Who is being forced to do anything? Are you being forced...

    God's apology to mankind

    If you're starting from the assumption that all this is a mess, and that it "just seems like bad design to (you)" then it's hardly surprising your conclusions will be that God royally messed it up and owes us all an apology. As we say in IT, garbage in, garbage out. If you start with a faulty...

    God's apology to mankind

    You posted a video with a link suggesting God got it all wrong and somehow owes us an apology for it. I don't need to watch a video to figure that concluding God owes us an apology is unlikely to go anywhere constructive.

    God's apology to mankind

    Not really interested in TikTok. Perish the thought that we might be wrong though. Heaven forbid that our way isn't the only way.

    GetHuman

    I usually punch the zero on the keypad until it does something useful. If a place can't put me through to a human without endlessly trying to figure out what form of words I have to say to the computer that often doesn't understand what I say, that company gets no more business from me than is...

    Healing the sick

    Perhaps God has a reason for some people to be healed and others to not be healed.

    Migrants buying cars

    It's sometimes hard to know if illegal immigrants are paying taxes. It's easy to see how working for cash under the table would mean they aren't but if they "borrow" a real SSN they potentially could sign up and work, pay taxes, but the benefits of the taxes accrue to the person whose SSN they...

    Reconciling Predestination and Freewill

    Why not throw reincarnation into the mix while you're there? You know, for the ones who resist until they die to get another shot at salvation.

    TikTok Ban

    The question remains whether it makes any practical difference being spoon-fed garbage by TikTok or spoon-fed garbage by Facebook. Another thing that's curious is why it's such a bad thing for the Chinese to have TikTok when it's apparently OK for them to own so many companies that can harvest...

    R.V.

    Every once in a while I think it might be fun. They aren't necessarily as ugly on the gas as you might think. A friend of mine recently bought an older one, and if he drives it sensibly he can get 8-9mpg out of it. Given it's a 40-foot vehicle that only drinks gas 33% faster than something like...

    Ordering takeout

    Nobody delivers to my area, too remote. One of the local pizza joints will meet people in a parking area about 8 miles from here. Their pizza is pretty lame, and frankly I have no interest in paying them $9.99 to drive it four miles only to then be expected to tip the driver for actually...

    Trump predicts the end of U.S. democracy

    It's curious to think that legal immigrants don't get to vote but illegal immigrants do.

    Starbucks Is Giving Away Its New St. Patrick's Day Drink

    Meh, I'm not a fan of Charbucks. This looks like just another big cup of sugary goop mixed with a tiny amount of mediocre coffee.

    TikTok Ban

    If the Chinese can gather information from the people I guess those at the top who might make a lot of money selling it to them will have to find another way to make a buck.

    TikTok Ban

    I'm sure there are more than a few people out there who get news from their preferred social media site and nowhere else. The question is whether getting information exclusively from TikTok is so much worse than getting information exclusively from Facebook or Reddit or whatever else. If you're...

    Grocery store pet peeve

    Aside from being in the grocery store at all, usually the people who have absolutely no awareness that they aren't the only person in the store. The ones who stand with a cart diagonally across an aisle blocking everything, or the people who stand side by side chatting and blocking the aisle...
