@FvckY0u even a tiny infant will scream at the sight/sound/approach of someone who has been nasty to it (even inadvertently).
You sound foolishly out of touch with reality

@FvckY0u speak for yourself...and you most def are living in some kind of Woo bubble nowadays
I remember when you came on here, not so long ago, a blubbering mess due to a divorce looming, and a lot of us supported you with kind words and ideas on coping, 99% from our own experiences.
Can you imagine how "helpful" the Woo you are posting now would have been to you then????????? (I'm thinking Enraging, actually)
Now you come on here ENDLESSLY lecturing/browbeating us about how we should think and act, and the advice is Totally Contrary to our experiences in life. Wen we tell you this, you get NASTY.
IMO you should change your site name to @Pollyanna.

@FvckY0u
I have to laugh ... how many of those words did you have to look up (or didn't look up ... because some of them have no negative connotation) ?

Will love matter when our planet becomes inhabitable? Nihilism is in fact the ultimate truth.

@Tejas That last comment explains a lot.

@Flyingsaucesir I mean unless you deny science our existence here is meaningless.

@Tejas Wow, that comment also says a lot about you. How exactly? I'll get to that. But first this: I'm a veteran science educator; the label "science denier" certainly won't stick. Yet I feel my existence has meaning. Maybe not on a cosmological scale, but in the context of a human life on Earth, yes. That feeling is made manifest when I run into a former student, and they say something like, "you really opened my eyes," or "damned if you weren't right about XYZ." I was part of the cohort of teachers that finally drove home the reality of climate change. My former students are now advocating and voting for the transition to green energy. It's a big deal in human history, and I played a small role in it. And any time I can help someone with a problem, I add a grain of sand to the positive side of the balance. Even if it's just picking a plastic bag out of the bay. I don't look for meaning to come from outside. We make (or discover) our own meaning.

If meaning eludes you, well, that's a sad state to be in. It probably explains your nihilism. If you don't want to go on being a sad mofo, try helping others.

@Flyingsaucesir our planet will be engulfed by our sun one day leaving nothing of our existence behind. So yes anything and everything on this planet is indeed pointless. The only real scale there is, is a cosmological scale.

@Tejas The sun is not scheduled to go red giant for at least another 2 or 3 billion years. An awful lot of biological evolution and technological advancement can take place in that time. So admit it: you have no idea where we'll be by then.

@Flyingsaucesir okay so you are science denying. Nothing can go faster than the speed of light junior. We don't live in the star trek universe, or Stargate or starwars. Literal dumbass

Stopping cold would not be helpful. Gradually slowing down to a more reasonable, non-zero rate would be best.

@FvckY0u I never said they weren't human. They're just bad. And if we have to smoke their sorry asses, no worries; there's always some killing to be done around the farm (paraphrasing a Tom Waits song ).

@FvckY0u Fine, but if they, or their minions, surrogates, or acolytes are threatening and killing you and yours, you're not going to stop them by recognizing their humanity.

@Flyingsaucesir sounds like your making an argument for the second amendment

@Tejas I have never argued for repeal of the 2nd Amendment. In fact, I've been a gun owner my whole adult life. At the same time, I don't think the 2nd Amendment guarantees civilians the right to keep modern, military-style weapons (like the AR-15). Obviously there has to be a limit to what is allowed. Stinger missiles are out. Rocket propelled grenades are out. Heavy machine guns, out. Light machine guns, out. Why are all of these obviously out? Because of their killing potential. And I argue that the AR-15, because of its high-powered cartridges, its potential for rapid fire even as a semi-automatic, its high magazine capacities, and the ease with which an empty magazine can be replaced by a fully loaded one, definitely makes it a full-on military weapon and not appropriate for civilian use.

@Flyingsaucesir all of those weapons are legal to own with proper paperwork and/or they are converted to semi automatic only. As for the rpg they are legal to own but the ammo is not unless again you have the proper paperwork. My uncle had a used law rocket launcher for years. I say that is your opinion if you believe civilians shouldn't own them, not common sense.

@Tejas Obviously I was talking about functional weapons with ammunition. Duh.

Yes, some individual collectors can qualify for special waivers or permits to possess otherwise prohibited weapons. This has little to do with mass marketing to the general public.

The 2nd Amendment stipulates a "WELL REGULATED Militia..." In other words, regulations (limitations) around possession/ownership are built into our laws from the constitutional level on up.

Note that the founding fathers realized the necessity to regulate the possession of arms even when a rifle or musket was only capable of being fired accurately twice in a minute, and the muzzle velocity was only 1200 fps. Now the semi-automatic rifle can be fired 120+ times per minute, and the muzzle velocity is 3,000 feet per second.

More firepower necessitates more regulation. Obviously.

Virtually everyone agrees that people who are mentally unstable, or have been convicted of a serious crime, should not have firearms. The question is, how shall we implement that? Age limits, background checks, red flag laws, laws against ghost guns, all have wide support.

Anyone who argues against closing the gun show loophole is not a serious interlocutor.

@Flyingsaucesir it's funny how you purposely misinterpret the 2nd amendment. Your opinions on this subject no longer interest me. Because all you have is opinions and emotions.

@Tejas I don't hear a cogent argument there. Get your shit together junior (if you want to be taken seriously).

@Flyingsaucesir I hope you don't hear anything as you are reading. I gave you reason logic and fact you gave me your opinions. You get your shit together, I don't see how you have such a strong opinion on something you know very little about.

@FvckY0u Well, in my defense I'm a cynical pessimist.
