I find that especially weird beyond the sexist dimensions because whatever else it might be, it's obviously very deeply felt. That's a piece of criticism from the heart, for better or worse.

This is the nice thing about careful, thorough analysis though; it always confirms your priors.

Not that there aren't evil and smart people, but there seem to be a lot fewer of them in the world than I'd previously reckoned.

Right. I still don't think it's an ironclad case because we still have not, to my satisfaction, clearly defined or clearly described consciousness. But that does seem far more likely than any of the alternatives.

Oh, cool. Maybe they can round up Dreher next, really burnish their soft trad credentials. I bet you that's just what the viewership is looking for.

The philosophical arguments against continuity of consciousness are also fairly weak IMO

I feel like there's one internal faction there that believes in this stuff and another one that wants to do things like gut their RSP

I have, from time to time, found myself raising more than an eyebrow or two at the rhetoric used by conservationists in regard to this Mostly keep my mouth shut because I don't want to end up Freeman Dysoning (re: climate change) myself

Like, he's clearly an asshole, it's not just a posture 'Rahm Emanuel accosted me wearing nothing but a towel in the Congressional gym' is a mental image I'll never be fully able to purge

In fairness he also hates a lot of other people

It's an odd presidency in that both these things can be true, which makes it challenging to think about

My hip take that should not be taken all that seriously is that he's a D.C. insider's idea of a fighter

It's overwhelmingly positive on Steam, and critics absolutely adored it I found myself disappointed because I'd also peg it around an 8/10

Make sure to drink the water if it's looking tasty

The no-shows, I mean, not asking about them

I mean, historically this is mafia shit lol

TIL it impacts overseas possessions, which I'd always assumed were exempted or mitigated in some way on the logic that, 'Well, they have to be, right? That'd be too stupid for protectionists, even.' Why would ANYONE defend a piece of legislation that can't even clear that low bar
