by Terry ina question: "what does identity mean?
" if it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck have feathers like a duck: it is a __?___.
hans christian anderson taught us this lesson in the famous story of "the ugly duckling" (**spoiler alert**) the ugly part of the duckling was misleading to observers who later discover it is a swan.

Name an Amazing or Unexpected Fact
by Simon ini saw this on twitter the other day and it blew my mind.. tyrannosaurus is closer to us than to stegosaurus.
that is, when tyrannosaurus lived, stegosaurus were already fossilized and those fossils were older than tyrannosaurus fossils are today to us, by a good 20 million years!.
in a similar vein, the star wars prequel movies are now older than the original star wars movies were when those prequels were released.. how about that we're closer in time to cleopatra than she was to the pyramids being built.. what 'ya got?.

Mozart wrote a canon in B-flat around 1782, meant to be sung by 6 voices. You can listen to it below.
The title is “Leck mich im Arsch”. We often think of Mozart, and other classical composers, as writing very formal pieces. The title of this work literally translates “Lick me in the ass”. But it probably more accurate to translate it as “Kiss my ass!”
He wrote a couple other dirty songs too.

Did Jesus pick his nose? Do you really think he walked around for years in that dry desert heat without cleaning house?

More responses like this are needed:
I would hope that it would eventually change from “that’s the whole point of a vaccine” to “shut the fork up”.

Would You Ever Go Back To The Witnesses??
by minimus inevery once in a while you hear people say they actually “miss” their old witness friends and or family.
some would have even stayed in the organization if they became a bit more liberal and open minded.

Colorado Mass Shooting
by Simon interrible news out of colorado this morning of a mass shooting in a supermarket leaving 10 dead.. missing from the homepage of cnn is any description of the shooter.
that's because it's a muslim refugee from syria who was apparently anti-trump and not a "maga white guy" which would otherwise be included in every headline.. more kids in cages than ever before (but strangely, now no one in the media seems to care) and now this.. biden doesn't have the magic wand he promised after all, right?.

The dispute arises because advocates of gun control have appropriated term "assault weapon" as a definition of convenience to suit their agenda.
Exactly. As with “climate change” and “racism”. Even important words like “justice” and “rights” are appropriated to further an agenda.

Are You Afraid You Might Do Something or Say Something That Is Considered Politically Incorrect?
by minimus ini was just reading how a guy on the net was saying he was attracted to some black women like halle berry but serena or gayle king not at all.
he was expressing his opinion.
anyway, he quickly got fired and he profusely apologized for what he said and has asked for help from the naacp and the mayor’s office to learn to do better.

Part of the redefinition of “racism”.
Is it racist to prefer a mate of the same race? No. It simply is not.

How Capitalism in a largely unregulated form does not work for anyone but the 1%, and the great need there is for a Universal Basic Income and for strong Unions to bring about fair wages.
Capitalism works for everyone, especially the poorest. If you are poor, goods at a lower price is exactly what you want. You need more production so that supply increases and a higher standard of living becomes available.
What doesn’t work is government distortions in the market. They *look like* market failures, but it’s the intervention that causes the problem. There are some incompetent people in the world, but the most incompetent idiot looks like a genius when compared to government bureaucracy.
