And here I thought “swamp ass” meant something Gulf coast centric that’s NSFW.

OpposingOpposum replies on Jun 19, 2018:

It is NSFW but it happens anywhere it's hot ?

Big Pharma too. It's all linked. It's why *iatrogenisis* is the third leading cause of death in the United States.

I've had enough of these douchebags occupying the atheist narrative. There's only one race. The human race.

OpposingOpposum replies on Jun 19, 2018:

@archer5691 what she said. The IQ differences are easily explained by the effects of poverty and racism. You give children poor quality food, poor quality education and add in extreme stress, you get people with stunted growth in many areas. All of these claims were made about Italians, Jews, the Chinese etc. Yet when removed from poverty and it's ill affects those "races" have a perfectly normal IQ range. Its not genetics, it's the effects of poverty.

Dating sucks.

OpposingOpposum comments on Jun 19, 2018:

Not in Canada, so my opinion is probably irrelevant. That being said, I'll toss in my two cents anyway. My first reaction is HELL NO. If you aren't interested enough to even commit to an actual date you're not interested enough for me to be interested back

What's your desire for a relationship or partner?

OpposingOpposum comments on Jun 18, 2018:

I honestly can't visualize a place for a partner in my life these days. Watching my friends relationships stuggles just makes me vicariously annoyed. I've become a grouchy old lady set in my ways, I guess.

As a pure agnostic, allow me to share my perspective in defense of agnosticism as "It’s the Agnostics that have no faith" Truth. Our beliefs are not based on the lack of evidence, as is the case for the atheist or theist. When confronted with an experiment we cannot perform and a thesis we ...

The eventual upshot is that taxpayers contribute to corporate ...

OpposingOpposum replies on Jun 15, 2018:

@CrazyQuilter yeah there should be some sort of rent control built into that. There's no reason those companies/ landlords should be squeezing people and the gov't for evrry penny. It amounts to price gouging imo. That being said, rents are high for everyone. There have been multiple studies about the unafordability of housing in the US in the last decade or two and it's just getting worse.
