It's time we acknowledge that not all Democrats are the same. That a Democrat who takes corporate money, profits off foreclosure, doesn't live here, doesn't send his kids to our schools, doesn't drink our water or breathe our air cannot possibly represent us. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

Robecology replies on Feb 1, 2019:
@Trajan61 How did I know you'd take it that way?
No. I would never suggested abortions are good. They're not "killing babies"....but they're still the last choice forced on them by those who fight family planning....folks like you.
Abortions should be a last line of decision-making. But; again - if we welcome family planning for the poor and ignorant, then their needs for abortions go away.
If you want less tax money going towards abortions and more to go to things you like, you fight abortion and family planning funding - which causes the unwanted and unloved population - and thus the prison population to grow.
If you want an end to the poor and ignorant getting abortions -
You welcome family planning.
You give them an alternative - or they will keep having babies - and they will grow up to be the scourge of society.
It's in the hands of conservative voters...and it's a fiscally conservative strategy as well (save society money; welcome family planning - thus ending abortions).

Robecology replies on Feb 1, 2019:
@brentan I'm not saying it; it's well established science; search "Ontogeny Recapitulates Phylogeny". in other words, as we developed in the womb, we parallel the evolution of vertebrates. As we develop outside the womb, the "evolution" is a gradual process that results, after years, with a fully conscious human. But it takes years.
Analogies to the Recapitulation theory have been formulated in other fields, including cognitive development and art criticism.
Think about your earliest memories. Age 3? Age 4? The age where you first realized your lifetime was limited? That's when you became fully human.

"Allentown" by Bily Joel
Well we're living here in Allentown
And they're closing all the factories down
Out in Bethlehem they're killing time
Filling out forms
Standing in line
Well our fathers fought the Second World War
Spent their weekends on the Jersey Shore
Met our mothers in the USO
Asked them to dance
Danced with them slow
And we're living here in Allentown
But the restlessness was handed down
And it's getting very hard to stay
Well we're waiting here in Allentown
For the Pennsylvania we never found
For the promises our teachers gave
If we worked hard
If we behaved
So the graduations hang on the wall
But they never really helped us at all
No they never taught us what was real
Iron and coal
And chromium steel
And we're waiting here in Allentown
But they've taken all the coal from the ground
And the union people crawled away
Every child had a pretty good shot
To get at least as far as their old man got
But something happened on the way to that place
They threw an American flag in our face
Well I'm living here in Allentown
And it's hard to keep a good man down
But I won't be getting up today
And it's getting very hard to stay
And we're living here in Allentown

Robecology replies on Jan 31, 2019:
It's been a Yoga/hindu "thing for millennia..basically it starts with a primitive "survival" or "security" level (they call it Chakra) and then it goes to a need for touch/feeling (sensation), then attention/affection, then power, etc. I'll google it for you and show you the link;
The idea is to leave the lower chakras behind, not have a desperate "need" for them, so much as a "preference" for them (that allows you to "be without" without suffering).
It's pretty logical, and makes sense once you study it.

@bigpawbullets I have total respect for anyone who debates without name-calls or profanities. It's been a major trigger point for at least one divorce - mom taught me young to avoid profanity (the sign of a weak mind).
Having said that; I never served; but had friends who I know and am close to 50 years later (including a Purple Heart). I admire their courage to serve; they admired my desire to teach and keep the '"essential personnel" deferment.
I taught every level; from pre-K in a foster home (all kids never adopted...struggling with personality disorders) to adult men in prison. Had a TV cable show for a few months "Cornucopia" - a health-oriented show.
1st wife died young....cancer from far too potent birth control pills. Divorced the next 3. Single now and happily so.

@bigpawbullets I have total respect for anyone who debates without name-calls or profanities. It's been a major trigger point for at least one divorce - mom taught me young to avoid profanity (the sign of a weak mind).
Having said that; I never served; but had friends who I know and am close to 50 years later (including a Purple Heart). I admire their courage to serve; they admired my desire to teach and keep the '"essential personnel" deferment.
I taught every level; from pre-K in a foster home (all kids never adopted...struggling with personality disorders) to adult men in prison. Had a TV cable show for a few months "Cornucopia" - a health-oriented show.
1st wife died young....cancer from far too potent birth control pills. Divorced the next 3. Single now and happily so.

Love Tesla and believe Musk is trying to save humanity. Don't feel safe without an autopilot, but cannot afford a Tesla, yet.
Robecology replies on Jan 30, 2019:
I don't feel safe WITH the autopilot. I save $5K by having the software removed from my new Tesla. I've heard/read too many horror stories about folks becoming too dependent on it. When I'm in the pilot's seat...I pilot the car. The adaptive Cruise control is enough of a help (vibrates if you're out of lane/too close to other cars - and slows - even stops - if the car in front of you does - that's plenty of extra safety I've never had before.

@Diogenes Kudos! I, too donate to a religious group; the Timothy Hill Children's ranch. I even visited Fern and Jerry Hill at their home in Riverhead, NY. But they're not #Religulous they're just humble, caring seniors. I met them when I was introduced to them by my second wife - who was raised for a short time by Fern and Jerry, as a "runaway" child herself. But again...they're not #religulous...just good, modest, generous people. I too, have ZERO interest in religion - and they know it...but they stay in touch...and I continue to "give" to them.

I feel bad/sorry for the Neo-conservatives who came over to the conservative side with their racism and xenophobia, and their desire to ignore the research on climate change; that’s not what classic conservatives do.
I won’t comment on the “no evidence whatsoever about Trump and Russia - you’re just not looking at all the arrests that have been made and all the evidence being laid out.
I don’t agree with the “sore loser” name tag...Hillary was a weak candidate - and women of power scare too many insecure men - and she didn’t recognize that. It’s still not time for a woman to lead the U.S.....it’s still a man’s domain, even though I support the woman’s equality movement.

Wise decision. Better to file for divorce before "cheating". Don't let "cheating" be the reason she accepts your divorce. I've been through 3....it gets easier every time. Stay pure, stay clean, stay faithful...but call that lawyer now.
Robecology replies on Jan 28, 2019:
@ActionBastard Time to re-plan your budget. Is she a working woman? The age of your kids is important; I read below that they’re 20 17 and 15 . The sooner you can work out a separation, the sooner you’ll get away from “feeling dead” Uncontested divorces are not that costly. If you both agree it’s time; then it’s one court appearance, and done. When you finally move in to that new apartment, and get one or more of the kids to hang with you on a regular basis...you’ll look back at this mess and say - “why did I wait so long”.!!

.what she does believe is that big money in America has worked hard to minimize and just plain lie and/or cover up the damaging and irreversible effects of our growing use of fossil fuels. They want to keep us addicted, because it means more profits for them .
They don’t care about future generations; she does.

@SleeplessInTexas Exactly.

That’s plenty of “help”...I don’t need hands free...I’d probably fall asleep!

@SleeplessInTexas I’m a garage sale/flea market/thrift shop junkie. I eat on a tight budget. But the question was “what do you spend $$ to get the best”...and that’s why I chose the Tesla. It’s the safest. The fastest. the quietest. the sexiest. And I didn’t get the 3 I got the S...top of the line...with 335 mile range, and all the bells and whistles....except the auto pilot. My T is equipped with it...but it costs $10K to “program” it to work...not worth it to me...yet. Do yourself a favor. Test drive one. Then ask me for the discount code....because I know you’ll want one.

A little dose of truth about the situation in Venezuela, from journalists who have worked there.
Robecology comments on Jan 28, 2019:
I hate Trump. Having said that; He accidentally made a good point. We need to help Venezuela...but we don't need to "demand a deal" before we do it. Most oil owners want to deal with folk who are willing to buy their product. If we go in and "liberate" Venezuela (which we -through Saudi and the ...

@commie1776 I’m so glad you shared the video. It was insightful. But it leaves me with a feeling of helplessness. Empathy. Sadness for their suffering. Call me a globalist...but I see their suffering....and I can’t just “leave them alone”.
