You think that preventing exposure to problematic concept prevents infection. you’re right, in the short term. But in the long term, you destroy collective immunity to the concept.

Let it live, fight it when you have to, but don’t think you can eradicate it. It’s to be learned from, not simply destroyed. Otherwise, the experience is wasted, only to be repeated by the next generation.

No, it won’t since the problems you think it will. You are misidentifying the problem as being religion. …but the problem is human, and psychological in nature - and, because you can’t see that, you’re just as susceptible to it as any other sot out there, drunk on the idea that you’ve got this one weird trick that solves the issue, and doesn’t involve you sorting your own shit out.

yep. But nuance isn’t visceral enough to grab their attention, so they get owned by those who are nuanced enough to wield the generalized binary concepts.

Literally, a mind virus they can’t recognize - likely crafted intentionally by someone at some point. But even if not, the irony is that this kind of wholesale buy-in to binary concepts is exactly what causes the behaviors they despise in religion.

you’re just voicing another ideology that wants to exterminate others. Religion is your whipping boy, and you’re lying to yourself if you think that getting rid of religion fixes the problem.

no, they in no way implied that bad people shouldn’t be stopped.

Aye. As fine as anyone can be with the death they get.

being killed for food by a species that is incomprehensibly more complex than I am, and is also relatively humane is really not too big of a deal in my opinion. Go aliens.

They do naturally behave like something, because they have a nature, and a tendency to behave along certain lines - regardless of whether or not we’ve bred them to be that way.

Hens can lay eggs for a good 13 years in some cases, and can live quite a bit beyond their egg-laying days as well, without peril.

Their peril comes when I decide “I’m going to eat that chicken.” And, I kill the chicken in a lot nicer way, likely, than you or I will die, when we do.

I grow the males until they start fucking the shit out of the females, and then eat them before the females become bedraggled. they get a chance to explore, fight and fuck, as they are wont to do.

Hens lay eggs all the time, if they’re well-fed. they’ll happily eat mice, or other species, or snake eggs, or whatever they find. they’re not exactly… …kind creatures.

If you isolate them from all other things and treat them as a pet, they’ll take on pet behaviors, like a lot of creatures do. but, that’s not how they naturally behave.

I have no qualms about treating something better than it would treat me, even if it does end up on my dinner plate. But chickens, like any creature, experience. …and as such, we should do our best to give them a decent experience overall.

delicious, delicious butt nuggets.

…among other things, literally virtue signaling that you’re not virtue signaling.

i also hit 4 a few times to give more columns to the cpu usage meters.

Steins;Gate - I know there’s SG0, but… SG, as is.

edit: and, Erased.

If I’m moving the device, then it’s not going to have the same automatons and such, so I can just rename it if I move it.

That allows me to use a really consistent naming scheme: Pump, Freezer, Electric Fence, Basement_room_1_lock, basement_room_1_electrics, basement_room1_ai_taunts_voice, Gerold, Hermione, Sir_Snuffalot, Misc_1, Misc_2, Misc_3, Misc_4, basement_hallway_motion_alarm, etc.

was gonna suggest similar.

yes.

A bycicle, because a vest had no sleeves.

I want the hangar made of Milla Jovovich.

Ugh. I just don’t like bringing legal forms into the equation. Maybe if you identify as a cat, I can just take you to the vet.
