Does it occur to you that I use non gendered language because I like logic and it simply makes more sense to me? Of course it makes sense to you. Everything what people do make sense for them. I don't pretend to give you an English lesson, but... do you know the origin of the word "straw man"? well...

one thing that needs to be remembered is that George Carlin was not trying to be wise or smart, he was a comedian and entertainer, so if he could say something outrageous and funny, true or not, he was doing his job. Sometimes I post pictures, that's all, I don't know why is important that he was b...

If I were the owner of this forum, I would forbidde a lot of words.

I don't care how weak, cowardly, strong, or brave I am as a person. I didn't say the oposite. Living my life like this is nothing more than a waste of my time. I don't know if the words in English are "oportunity cost", you are not wasting anything, to be a waste means that there is something bette...

Do you seek comfort in 'Philosophical Counselling' ? Do you say Stuff the World and Everyone In it ? Do you read the news and wonder about Alternative Facts ? Do you need a new dictionary to translate what is a traitor? Do you stop asking questions... ...and simply accept... All Things Must Pass It...

I have honestly concluded from all these years of personal experience with depression and anhedonia that there is no other form of happiness, joy, inspiration, and meaning for me.
