Grouchio posted:Quite an understatement. What evidence suggests that our civilization is on the verge of reaching literal hell? Isn't it the way of things that society has up-times and down-times? That humanity can rebuild itself, better yet reach for the stars and colonize them? Why the hell would I want to miss out on that? It is not the stars we dream of but a peace of mind that reaching them requires.

I mean yeah, if its a routine operation with trivial risk and does in fact have lots of upsides (like superimposed ARG-Vision!) then yeah the implant is probably fine, I imagine it'll be like in that one story where newborns just get it routinely added at birth.

Some social issue will come up in 20 years or so that I will probably look extremely bigoted for opposing because things weren't like that when I was growing up. We tell ourselves that we'll be different than our parents, and we are in that we accept the poo poo our parents hate, but in the end it's all the same: there's always something new, the boundaries always move, and that's why we all have to die.

Not sure if this has been posted yet, but not only did Clinton use only her personal email during her time as Secretary of State, but she ran her own email server out of her own house. If any goon thought this was going away any time soon.....well, you're dumb. Also get ready for more BENGHAZI since this gives republicans more meat to claim Hillary was holding out on information...which really, is her own drat fault now.
