Censorship sucks. No matter who is doing it. It's straight-up bullshit and needs to stop immediately. There was NOTHING wrong with that picture. It's art, for fuck's sake!

anglophone replies on Feb 6, 2022:

There may be crossed wires. The picture that you can access from the OP is not the one that was removed. In my view, the picture that you can still access at the time of writing is far more salacious than the one that was removed.

There may be a reactionary attitude creeping into this site's administration.

Looks like the other post and user are no longer available. Unless that person blocked me, but I don't ever remember coming across that name before.

@JeffMurray I will ask if @Triphid can message it to me, and I will then message it to you.

So it appears that we either have a sensitive snowflake crying buckets on the shoulders of an ...

A little more on what happened may be in order. I can see your disillusionment, but I can't read your mind about what happened.

It might be a glitch on the site. I know that I have been unexpectedly blocked.

Beowulfsfriend comments on Feb 6, 2022:

I wondered about admin removal of things. In my early days, I posted something that ended up on the internet when one did a Google search on that topic (a company being a scam). For a couple years, I got people joining the site to A) bitch at me B) say yea, we know and agree. Then it all vanished; ...

anglophone replies on Feb 6, 2022:

It concerns me when anybody's personal sensitivities on any subject interfere with their ability to adhere to the rules of any social media web site when in the role of being an administrator. I know of group admins on Facebook who agonise over whether or not somebody has overstepped the mark. It also concerns me that anybody takes down a picture of what is clearly a public event and everybody is enjoying themselves hugely and perfectly legally.

FvckY0u comments on Feb 5, 2022:

being a dirty man I would have pulled it out and pissed on the bible thus saving it from certain fiery death.

anglophone replies on Feb 5, 2022:

I wonder if "the good man of the Good Book" thought to burn any Korans. Perhaps not, as being murdered by Muslim fanatics is no different to being murdered by Christian fanatics.

Compound in the Herb Rosemary Could Be a Two-Pronged Weapon Against COVID-19

FvckY0u comments on Feb 5, 2022:

also found in other plants such as sage but who's gonna eat that shit? Anyway you can also get rosemary supplements. I might get some to have on hand. Also think the wife and I have long covid with headaches that if treated are gone but untreated are there and don't go away. Maybe this would ...

anglophone replies on Feb 5, 2022:

I love sage. We have a raised bed that is exclusively for herbs. (Though I sometimes need a heavy duty power pruner to keep the rosemary in check.)

Are homosexual natures created by nurture, nature, or God?

ChestRockfield comments on Jan 29, 2022:

1. Where did you get the notion that believers think god created people *as* homosexuals? I was under the impression that a vast majority of Christians believe that free will exists, that homosexuality is a choice, and that homosexuals have chosen that for themselves. 2. I believe most of the ...

anglophone replies on Feb 5, 2022:

@Greatest "We are created in God's image"? Really? I suggest you learn to think before engaging with intellectual middleweights such as me, let alone intellectual heavyweights such as @JeffMurray.

Are homosexual natures created by nurture, nature, or God?

anglophone comments on Jan 29, 2022:

"**The** cause/source of homosexuality"? Why should it be just one cause or source? I am not in the business of speculating about the motives of non-existent entities.

anglophone replies on Feb 5, 2022:

@Greatest You have failed to answer my question of you about why there be just one cause or source of homosexuality. You have also gone off in a direction that has nothing to do with your original post.

Can anyone answer this for me?

So Mike Pence has finally turned on his former boss, Trumpty Dumpty: [bbc.

joeandbarb comments on Feb 5, 2022:

He waited until tRump started blaming him and even threatened him saying he needed to be investigated. He only did this to head off even more accusal.

anglophone replies on Feb 5, 2022:

Thereby showing that he is just as much of a vile little shit as his erstwhile boss, Trumpty Dumpty.
