    A floppy disk

    I don't think I even own any floppy disks any more. For the longest time I kept an old floppy drive in my PC, moving it from one to the next to the next as I built new PCs. Then I came to realise I didn't have anything on floppy drives that I didn't have copied onto my hard drive, and wasn't...

    Saying "You have to be happy by yourself first" is exactly like saying "Beatings will continue until morale improves."

    I think you're mixing and matching things that don't mix and match here. Being in multiple relationships (meaning a romantic relationship, having close friends etc) is good for you in many ways. The thing is they don't tend to fix you. If the reason you hang out with your friends is that you...

    USA Dump Trump

    Has it been shown conclusively that he encouraged the riot? After the accusation I read the entirety of his speech looking for anything that could be seen as an encouragement to riot and just couldn't see anything. I must admit I have rather mixed views on Trump but really can't see what he...

    USA Dump Trump

    To what extent did the candidates he endorsed win because he endorsed them? Did his endorsement help significantly? It's often hard to know just what difference it made, and indeed whether a lack of endorsement would have caused a larger or smaller margin. Mehmet Oz managed to lose to John...

    The holiday season

    There's certainly some merit to this argument - Kwanzaa seems to have been created just so the poor downtrodden black folks could have their own holiday (because obviously a black Christian couldn't celebrate Christmas with everyone else). I guess I'm also thinking of the years when this time...

    USA Dump Trump

    I suppose the question is whether the "legions" of supporters represent the majority of the party or simply the loudest factions. It's much the same question as asking how many Democrats buy into the woke nonsense and to what extent it's the people shouting the loudest who draw the attention. I...

    USA Dump Trump

    I think a key thing is appealing to moderate and floating voters. If you lose those then all you have is the tribal voters, in which case you might as well field a turnip and not bother campaigning at all because your tribal voters will still turn out in force. I still think back to when John...

    The holiday season

    What bugs me about the season is the endless marketing of the same old junk but presenting it as "the perfect gift". You must surely know someone who would just love this - er - whatever it is. And it's only $80! Throw in canned Christmas muzak everywhere you go and it's all the reason I need...

    The holiday season

    Referring to the holiday season makes sense because there are a few of them rather than just Christmas. It's pretty sad when people feel the need to act offended because you wished them well for the wrong holiday though. If someone wished me a happy Hanukkah I wouldn't be offended because I...

    A rough childhood

    To a very large extent you're right. It's just sad that some kids get handed such a bad hand so early they don't have a lot of scope to simply learn and grow through it. Outside of the worst cases of neglect and abuse I'd agree with you. Sometimes it takes a while to learn, even if learning is...

    A rough childhood

    Josiah, I think you make very good points about needing to learn about how to handle hardships and what to do when life doesn't hand you exactly what you want, when you want, how you want. That said I suspect that even given the "trials and tribulations" of dealing with the embarrassments of...

    Is it LAWFUL to kill animals?

    What experience are you expecting in prayer? You keep referring to your "moral compass" and praying about stuff. Are you seriously expecting to say some prayers and have your moral compass miraculously converted into something that always points the right way? If it were as simple as that there...

    What now for Republicans?

    I find it worrying how the Democrats are constantly painting the Republicans as being the party set to destroy democracy as we know it (or however they are wording it today) while pushing ever further towards entrenching themselves as the party that need never relinquish power. Whether it be...

    Is it LAWFUL to kill animals?

    So either you are wrong or God is wrong. If you believe God created everything I wouldn't bet too heavily on God being wrong. You still seem to be saying "I prayed, this is how I feel, therefore this must be right". That means setting up how you feel as if it were the ultimate objective...

    Is it LAWFUL to kill animals?

    You have two issues going on here. Your first was that it's possible to exist on a plant-based diet. The fact that it is possible does not mean it is mandated. We could live without central heating, we could live without eating meat, we could live without eating ice cream but the fact we can...

    What now for Republicans?

    I think there needs to be a lot of reflection. A lot of voters will vote their party ticket no matter what so there are certainly a lot of voters out there who will never change the way they vote. Trump allegedly said he could shoot a man in the middle of New York and get away with it - I...

    Is it LAWFUL to kill animals?

    So you're saying "I'm seeking God, so what I feel is right and wrong must be universally right and wrong"? If it seems to you that it's wrong to eat meat then don't eat meat. It's not that hard. If you want to tell others that they shouldn't eat meat you need something a lot more solid than "it...

    Democrats voted for a dead man

    Seriously? Who was that? When I saw your title I wondered if it was a dig at Fetterman but as far as I know he's still alive, even if his capability to function at Senate level so soon after his stroke is debatable.

    Not really. Sometimes we get an unexpected warm spell or an unexpected cold spell. That has been the case for as long as I can remember. When I was a teenager if we got unexpected snowfall in March or April it was one of those things. Now if we get unexpected snowfall in March or April it's...
