I HAVE REPORTED YOU TO THE INTERNET POLICE.

CONSEQUENCES… Will NEVER be the same!

I’m pressing the button why aren’t you screaming?

I’ve actively avoided Veritasium since the lightyear long wire video, when he made claims that were proven wrong by numerous other channels and then doubled down on them. Then he sold out to private equity and YouTube has a hard on for pushing their videos in to my feed regardless of what I was just watching. I go so far as to scramble in to the room to change it if I’m just listening to the TV from another room to avoid having YouTube add that shit to my algorithm harder

Claire Saffitz? Veritasium is next. Scary Interesting? Fern next? No Veritasium. Fern? Veritasium. Veritasium videos from years ago you’ve already seen, why not. That fucking light-year video again, fuck you.

That said, EVEN I have seen that video.

It’s FIFA. Human rights abuses are just how they operate.

Well when the Gulf stream collapses that will have been a wise building choice.

The host city’s infrastructure is sub par.

I live on monster energy and coffee until I’m cranking out adrenalin and use the mild panic caused by that to treat every task as a last minute task.

My heart is fine why do you ask?

I use my phone and a cheap controller that the phone slots in to. Has not failed me yet. Well, that’s not true, it’s powerful enough to emulate Wii games but the motion controls are hard to replicate without an actual Wii remote. That, and I want for a PS2 emulator, failing that, it’s been great.

Prenatal testosterone has well studied effects but brain development isn’t one of them.

It’s equally possible that the default state is risk taking, and estrogen causes risk averse behavior.

Science: “we found absolutely no link between this behavior and this chemical. We checked multiple times and then checked everything we checked again.”

Some random jackass on the Internet: “BUT THERE COULD BE ONE STILL YOU DON’T UNDERSTAND SCIENCE!!11!”

Nonsense, we can crowd source this. Look, I’ll start:

I’m getting a breaking report here. Field reporters are telling me, sky blue. I’m not sure what this means, stay tuned for hourly updates

Yeah it sounds like he went to replace a Honda pilot with a CR-V. Maybe a Passport? It’s insane to think of somebody calling that a large car though.

“we’ve built a model based on charging an assload of money for features that barely work and China is making cheap cars that do the job better. Because, you know, the cheap bullshit we’ve been building. If you force us to compete again we’ll lose!”

You can tell because of the way it is.

It was probably upside down when the sap flowed over it. It’s antennae are completely vertical and would have been carried in the direction of the sap. Probably suffocated pretty quick, though it’s elevated forelimbs might have allowed it to struggle to breathe briefly as it was consumed by sap.

we inherited that knowledge from Adam

Do you have a non biblical source for that claim?

Again, if morality were objective, you’d be able to prove it. If you’re going to just cite somebody’s interpretation of mythology, you’re making an argument from a subjective source.

It may be that the particular animal he was hunting was an elder animal, no longer capable of reproducing or one that threatened the offspring of others. Generally, when they’re talking about ethical hunts, they’re referring to these specific animals. Allowing rich foreigners to come in and play Safari and pay to remove those animals is a great source of funding for conservation efforts.

It’s also possible he just fucking lied. Or he was lied to. Or he knew he was lied to and didn’t care.

Regardless of the actual truth, getting trampled by elephants is fitting.

I think ethical conservation hunting is great, and I think trampling stupid rich people to death is even better. How great would it be if both things happened?!

How do you define cruelty without God being real?

Pretty simply, do you require help knowing the difference between what is cruel and what is not? You might need psychiatric help my guy

How can you know for sure that God is apathetic or ignorant?

Because of the suffering of innocents. Any all powerful creature that allows suffering on the scale we are familiar with either doesn’t know about it, and is thus ignorant, or doesn’t care, and is thus apathetic. Perhaps this creature both knows and cares, in which case it is either powerless to stop it, and therefore not all powerful, or it is a cruel being, and not one by which to set your moral compass.

If there is no basis for objective morality at all,

There isn’t. Morality is a supposition.

we have no grounds to condemn other cultures for actions that go against our culture.

This relies on a number of assumptions which are mostly wrong. Am I condemning an entire culture or the actions of a few people? Do the people of that culture think this is a good idea? Are there members of that group that condemn this? Are those members represented? Is the practice being condemned harmful?

I would condemn cruelty happening abroad because I believe everyone is made in the image of God, and God’s commandment for all of Humanity was to love one and other. If God isn’t real, then why should I care what happens in other countries, if the only morality I have is based on my white, western culture?

So you require someone else to tell you what is right and what is not? Are you incapable of independent thought? Are you devoid of compassion and empathy?

An empathetic person would abhor the suffering of others without divine intervention.

Should God appear to you and demand you sacrifice your eldest son, would you begin sharpening your knife?

If there is no God, humans are just lumps of cells anyway, not too far removed from plants and animals.

We are not removed greatly from animals no. We are animals. We’re pretty far removed from plants though.

So why would it be my business what is going on abroad

Empathy my guy. I was kind of kidding before but now I’m actually concerned you lack basic emotional skills that are natural and innate to most people. That’s definitionally psychopathy, you might want to look in to that.
