S2, Do you think establishing a college degree prerequisite for police in the U.S. would significantly reduce such misconduct?

Recreational pharmacology is rather a puzzle to me. I've long known there are happy drunks, and mean, malicious, combative drunks. Some so strongly enjoy tobacco they chain-smoke themselves to death. Others meticulously avoid it. The spectrum of affects of marijuana on individuals within our...

I've never found Soviet / Russian Kremlin war mongering persuasive. Trump has already disclosed, divulged his aspirational wish-list, including Iceland, and Canada. Russia is not on that list. That Russia's 11 time zones comprise the armpit of planet Earth is metaphorical geo-political flattery...

That's my conclusion too. BUT !! There are other explanations. "Evolution" explains it. Evolution doesn't explain it well. It seems obvious humans having 20:20 vision is an advantage over being entirely blind. But the notion that the entire vision system evolved incrementally, not merely the...

In computer code parlance the expression was: GIGO - garbage in, garbage out In sorting through the disinformation churn during the Secretary RFKj era, it's not GIGO, it's Guy Die. 🪦 🦇

This assertion bears unmistakable appearance of a post hoc ergo propter hoc assertion. That's not about the Budapest Memorandum. In all the years of this War, I have not seen any report wherein Putin / Russia attributes Ukrainian aggression to the Budapest Memorandum. To the contrary, reports...

This does not seem plausible to me. ANY adult that wishes to not be vaccinated has choices to make. RFKj's delusions can be excused as "eccentricities". Our system has multiple safeguards to prevent such "eccentrics" from making national policy. The Republican party has managed to circumvent...

West Virginia, a "red" State? Voted for Trump?

And may have inspired George Carlin ?

Looks like satire to me. Are we sure this isn't an A.I. spoof?

"Food"? - really ? - Well, it's got sprinkles.

I've been puzzling over this one S2. Obviously those that don't wish to doobie-up are free not to. I suspect an electoral plurality there know that. So how can we explain this? It seems there are boogeymen skulking about: - beverage ethanol can be tested for, ostensibly accurately, via...
