Ahh...what was I saying...
Robecology comments on Dec 19, 2020:
That's kind of the reason I swore off pot. When you're young and get high...people laugh at your stupidity and munchies....When you're older they say...uh-oh...mentally disabled/alzheimer's ...or...eating disorders...food addict....not to mention what it does to my B.P.; sadly...my pot days are done...
Happy Saturday Everyone. What are you up to?
Robecology comments on Dec 19, 2020:

You're all scared aren't ya?!
Robecology comments on Dec 19, 2020:
I have read that vaccines for COVID19 won't become widely available until June or July...so...no...this won't be a good year. I've also read that as our population continues to grow (150 more births, than deaths, per minute, 220,000 more per day) that we are speeding up our pollution rate, our chances for another pandemic, and our rush toward widespread poverty. Viruses are getting stronger, as well as vectors for disease spread....especially mosquitoes! Oh...and ice melt rate is increasing in both Antarctica and Arctic regions. Seas may start rising drastically. Happy 2021, all! It's beginning to look like tough times began in 2020.... https://www.worldometers.info

Mount Rushmore
Robecology comments on Dec 18, 2020:
I get why the did the carving. It was a noble effort. What's not noble is that it was done on land that recently had belonged to the Native American tribes in the area...as were most lands in the U.S.; and we lied and cheated to steal most of these locations. The creation of Mount Rushmore is a story of struggle — and to some, desecration. The Black Hills are sacred to the Lakota Sioux, the original occupants of the area when white settlers arrived. For some, the four presidents carved in the hill are not without negative symbolism. The Sioux have never had much luck dealing with white men. In the Treaty of 1868, the U.S. government promised the Sioux territory that included the Black Hills in perpetuity. Perpetuity lasted only until gold was found in the mountains and prospectors migrated there in the 1870s. The federal government then forced the Sioux to relinquish the Black Hills portion of their reservation. https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/americanexperience/features/rushmore-sioux/

HAS SCIENCE BECOME A RELIGION? - Abdurraheem Green - LDM Show - YouTube
Robecology comments on Dec 18, 2020:
@Affrives So #1; Both of the video participants are of the Muslim faith. So of course they're going to try to minimize/trivialize science.....but they - you - can't. #2. Science is not a body of knowledge - it's a learning strategy. If you practice fact-based information you're being scientific. If you're expressing faith in unproven doctrine - you're being religious - the opposite of being scientific. Science is not dependent on blind obedience....religion is. #3.The best scientists are always open to change. They welcome being proven wrong. The best religious are locked in to the words and sayings of their originators, their "prophets. They try to apply their ancient wisdom to modern life....and they are failing. #4. Science is a process of evaluating and analyzing data. Religion if a process of accepting doctrine. I won't bother continuing to expound upon the absurdity of your video...just let me share these memes; I know you fear them...but please consider them...read them. Welcome to Agnostic.com. Do bring your religious arguments....we here at www.agnostic.com welcome the curious and the fence sitter. You wil learn the truth, and the facts. You will analyze them....you will be scientific...or you won't - you will hold on to your religion. السلام عليكم

Robecology comments on Dec 18, 2020:
There's a strategy that Trump bought months ago...the "Herd mentality". He and his empaths suggest that everyone just "catch it-deal with it - get immunity to it". So naturally...being a "lame duck"...he's going to push his strategy as well as he can...slow down vaccine deliveries. etc. https://www.forbes.com/sites/brucelee/2020/09/16/trump-says-with-a-herd-mentality-covid-19-coronavirus-will-go-away/?sh=630b46ad1dde

Robecology comments on Dec 18, 2020:
I think St. Nicholas was born in Greece, and did most of his "saintly" work Turkey! In his later life it was suggested that he had imitators. Interesting side story; his most prodigious activity was the spreading of Oranges as a popular treat. He often did "sneak in" to homes and stuff them in to stockings (actually hanging by the fireplace to dry). The myths about his sleigh and reindeer had some validity as well...he did have huge sacs of oranges that he distributed widely....using his sleigh and reindeer. Of course the Christian trend was to exaggerate everything...so he then was said to "fly", he allegedly landed on rooftops, worked at the north pole, and went down chimneys to leave his "prizes" according to the middle ages myth-makers. Oh...and say "Saint Nicholas" fast a few times...and you get Santa Claus. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint_Nicholas
It is absolutely sickening that when it comes to political gambits, people don't respect the rules ...
Robecology comments on Dec 18, 2020:
I think the biggest mistake we made in the past two decades - that encouraged all this cheating and greed - is the passage of "Citizen's United" amendment to the constitution. It sound's so "user friendly" but what it means....simply....is that anyone can donate any amount - anonymously - to any candidate. It allows what we used to call "payola" or "bribery"...or paying off politicians. It will take a 2/3 vote in both houses and a signature by the president to amend it...but we must. It's crucial; https://www.opensecrets.org/political-action-committees-pacs/C00573261/summary/2020

Robecology comments on Dec 15, 2020:
As a demographer I have to disagree. There's little to no drive to " spit upon his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats" if one is alon or isolated. The problems rise when our - or any organism's - population density reaches a critical point. The levels frustration fall with the evolution of a working society (n other words, laws, rules, and mores are shared and respected) and rise when that society gets too crowded. It's been proven to be true for plants, insects, almost every living being....isolate them and they strive for cooperation. Crowd them and an instinct stirs that brings up the-black-flag-raising-throat-slitting impulse. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1501789/pdf/califmed00143-0080.pdf

Robecology comments on Dec 15, 2020:
#1. As I told my students for 45 years, being scientific, or performing a scientific experiment makes you a "scientist"...it's not necessarily a paid position #2.Scientific thinking is what separates the religious from the unreligious or non-religious. To be considered atheistic or agnostic - it almost demands, and certainly goes hand-in-hand with being scientific.
One does what one is; one becomes what one does.
Robecology comments on Dec 15, 2020:
Yes; I concur; the (Gregorian/Christian) new year's "resolutions" are a bit of a joke. Kudos on deciding to get fit...it's a real challenge to fight hunger, to change one's diet and exerciser routines.. As a health teacher I taught that eating habits were ingrained in us in much the same way as religion was/is...before we could walk and talk our loving parents said certain things, and fed us certain things. When we cried/got emotional. parents have a choice; to ignore, to physically comfort, or to shove food in our mouths. And that food could have been anything from breast milk to milk-duds - from a healthy nutritious snack to a weight-gaining one...and again...all before we could walk and talk. The addiction ran deep...so you deserve a pat on the back for changing - and "resolving" to change it...regardless of the calendar.

Robecology comments on Dec 13, 2020:
It looks like we as a species are lined up for extinction. Most ecologists believe that we are in the midst of the sixth mass extinction. Humanity’s impact on nature, they say, is now comparable to the five previous catastrophic events over the past 600 million years, during which up to 95 percent of the planet’s species disappeared. We may very well be. But recent studies have cited extinction rates that are extremely fuzzy and vary wildly. https://e360.yale.edu/features/global_extinction_rates_why_do_estimates_vary_so_wildly

Not surprised. We've reached a critical point in population density...we're now much closer to everyone else - and the germ transmission rate is going up - rapidly - in dense population areas. Only a few decades ago the population was 4 billion...now we're closing in on 8 billion. And we're increasing...births minus deaths...at 150 more per minute. See the data link, below. Viruses need a certain minimal distance to transmit...and we're getting closer to that every minute/hour/day. Viruses go through a lifespan in 8 hours. One will make 4 - which will make 8 - in 24 hours. https://www.worldometers.info

Robecology comments on Dec 10, 2020:
I remember being struck by a cartoon meme - a sort of split screen showing two essentially similar people - One a healthy person - eating right, exercising, sleeping....doing all the right strategies, worlking on having a positive personality; but that person lived in a "Cocoon" of sorts. Then there's the risk-taker...(s)he eats carelessly, exercises in spurts or often not at all, and lives a full and "vivacious" life. Will the "cacoon" dweller/perfect eater/exerciser live longer? Probably. Will their life be "fuller"? - that's the big question. IMO...that's a popular new abbreviation for "In My Opinion" .... We have to strike a balance. Live our lives - focus on healthy...but don't fear the binge...live safely...but don't "cocoon" Trauma bonding? Had to google that one...Im so sad that there's a name for liking to be abused or thinking abusive behavior is in any way desirable. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traumatic_bonding

I hate to admit it; but this horrible behavior by our POTUS has just riled me. Those of us who feel confident in the "American way" are 99% sure Biden will be inaugurated on Jan 20th. But having said that - there's 1% assumption that Trump might make a significant stir. Trump might try one of several things. He might end up totally free, with a pension - or in jail. Here's the options as I see it. He might try an "inauguration party" at Mar a Lago....and though he won't resist moving out of the WH...he will resist several other "holdings" given to him as "commander in Chief" He will possibly claim he's still POTUS. He might be a "flight risk"...and might end up being quietly "detained" He might go through the courts and arrange a stall on the Electoral college tabulation, and/or the Congressional final count. He might end up being declared pardoned of all charges - assuming he just agrees to not press the "fraud" allegations any more. This is a troubling period of time coming up... but again...it's troubling only in a small way. It's embarrassing for us as Americans that he's fighting this. It's sad for us that we had to do so many mail-in ballots. It's sad that the resistance to mailing ballots. to minority voting, and to getting properly registered to vote was such a struggle. And finally...I have to add...that it's frustrating for many of us to tolerate the win for "centrist" Biden....many of us were hoping for Bernie. Sorry - had to rant.

So that tells you three things about him; he's either morbidly ugly or thinks his humor is charming....he alleges he's a bounty hunter....another sign of aggression - and he's arrogant and righteous. I'm betting he's #religulous too.

Robecology comments on Nov 30, 2020:
The only flaw in your logic is when you say you "realized is that Christians can't be saved" . True atheists don't concern themselves with "saving" one's soul...or even having a "soul" for that matter. One thing the bible said that's science..."From dust you came and to dust you shall return". Sad, but true; here's more accurate, and scientifically provable atheist memes.

What's your POV on the Electoral College? I'm afraid that DJT will do everything in his power to change the outcome of this election...and if that means going to Washington on Dec 14th to personally appeal to every elector....I wouldn't put it passed him. I recall doing a report on it for a high school class over 50 years ago....and yet we still cling to this old system....and I don't foresee the constitutional amendment required to change or cancel it in the near future. Here's an article - a PDF, actually - from the U.S. Congress about it...to give you the details; I know this is a world-wide audience; so your opinions are valued! https://crsreports.congress.gov/product/pdf/IF/IF11641

Robecology comments on Nov 28, 2020:
interesting. I predict that we're on the brink of extinction...but that will only re-set the evolutionary clock back a few to a dozen or more million years. I'm guessing most large land mammals will die off. I'm guessing that Procyon genus (raccoons) will evolve in to dominance; then evolve larger size and even more intelligence. Who knows - they might re-invent technology and even "digital watches"? Meanwhile whales and dolphins will continue their evolution. I think they're the smartest; as the original post suggests...they never "left the oceans".

I stopped by Walmart just out of curiosity. NBD...but beware - a guy walked up to me in the parking lot and showed me a $20....and said "you must have just dropped this" I started to take it when he said "check your wallet"....that's when I figured out I was being "set up" and left him standing there. Scary, desperate folk out there. Beware.

Robecology comments on Nov 24, 2020:
NBD. I've been following the "comet origin" theories closely. There's now evidence that most of the DNA on our planet started on another one - or two = or more. Apparently there might have been a world that formed in the "goldilocks zone" (just far enough from the sun to allow liquid water to form) prior to earth... It formed...formed oceans....formed life....then exploded. The oceans flash froze....but stayed in orbit around the sun. That explains the abundance of icy comets that rained down on early earth... So we might have been "innoculated" with DNA and simple life forms that started on another planet (Octopi have nearly 50% unexplainable, unmatchable DNA). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formation_and_evolution_of_the_Solar_System

Glad Joe's pushing moving away from Fossil fuels. Yea, it's a slap in the face of the FFC (Fossil fuel consortium)....but those folk have let greed get the best of them...to the point of disregarding the environment. Look at this chart; bet you didn't have any idea how little we in the US pay for fuel taxes...but that's the result of FFC has been funneling money to states to keep the fuel taxes low and keep America hooked on gas...

Happy Tuesday! Which charity or charitable cause is your favourite to which to contribute?
Robecology comments on Nov 24, 2020:
I'm not Christian; but the Christian minister and his wife who "adopted" the mother of my son (my ex since '88) have become a favorite charity of mine. He (Jerrell Hill) and his wife Fern run a ranch/school for kids kicked out of homes and who've been in trouble with the law. They get referred to the "**Timothy Hill Children's ranch**" where they're expected to not only take and pass courses, but participate in various agricultural activities. And lit's my favorite charity. I have them as my only donor for the "www.Smile.Amazon.com" program that allows you to buy Amazon products at the same price but also contributes a portion of the profits to the charity of your choice. If you use Amazon...check them out. An easy way to give to a favorite charity.
Do most men just play along for eventual pussy.
Robecology comments on Nov 24, 2020:
First of all...it's awfully biased and pre-judgemental of you to say "men just play along for eventual pussy."....that's showing that you're frightened of men and assume the worst of them Being honest. Take off the biased glasses...and you might meet genuine men.
