Re: September 8, 2021: Conflict 73

My only point in bringing up the abortion ban is that governments, whether local or national, can make decisions - not based on science - that negatively impact lives. You and I wholeheartedly agree on the issue about letting science and scientific research guide the decisions about healthcare. In a...

Re: September 8, 2021: Conflict 73

I think that's a good point too. But, while I agree that there is real reasons someone couldn't take the vaccine, if that's not the case, simply choosing not to take it is irresponsible because it's not only your own life on the line, it's everyone else's. I think vaccination should be mandatory fo...

Re: September 8, 2021: Conflict 73

I am not sure that Tat is anti anything except the woke social crap. I believe at least one country is instituting social scoring. To me, what the comics seem to be indicating is that we are combining the vaccine with politics. A person should have the right to refuse the vaccine. They should not su...

Re: September 8, 2021: Conflict 73

I agree. It is bad enough that some people cannot get the vaccine for health related reasons and also some who get the vaccine are not healthy enough to respond to it well. But to deliberately refuse to get the vaccine because 'it's a conspiracy' or 'they are putting chips into us' is another thing ...

Re: Just Some Randomness

And here I was thinking that meme was something of the internet. I looked up meme and found this: "meme, unit of cultural information spread by imitation. The term meme (from the Greek mimema, meaning “imitated”) was introduced in 1976 by British evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins in his wo...

Re: OnlyFans Takedown

I looked again just to be sure and I think the MasterCard/Visa is the main reason. I know that in April the credit card companies made it clear what their stance was on adult content sites which affected Only Fans. I think that Pornhub was never in the clear even when they removed content from their...

Re: OnlyFans Takedown

I heard that pornhub changed because they were accused of allowing videos of child abuse and rape. They took down bunches of content and only allowed content from verified users. Then because of pressure from MasterCard they have gone to a new business profile - no porn - so they can keep accepting ...

Re: My Phone Screen Cracked

Those are some deep dark thoughts and it does sound like you are on the down slope of this part of the roller coaster. But we all know about roller coasters and they are a wild ride. But since I am seeing this days after you wrote it you are no doubt somewhere else and I am talking to just the rippl...

Re: Vaccinated and it feels so good

Yay! Good for you! I got my shot in May even though I am a very hesitant vaccine person - and for good reason. I react very strongly to vaccines and often with extreme skin reactions. Prior to Covid it had been almost 20 years since I had received a vaccine. So, I did my research and chose to have t...

Re: June 21, 2021: Character 55

I agree. I am liking this comic thread. Tat's depiction of the information stream as little boxes is quite clever. Nobody can voice a dissenting opinion because they are swarmed by this 'confetti' of 'acceptable doctrine' - mind you, as you say both sides are doing this so what is acceptable on one ...

Re: On Time

Ah yes, and death - the end of time, at least for the entity that dies, for no matter what might or might not happen next they have exited this timeline. It is all around us this death. Witnessed or not. Your example of the mouse is a witnessed one. I think your actions were kind. Make something of ...

Re: On Time

Thoughtful thoughts there Russly. Time is a very weird thing or at least our experience of it is. A five year old experiences a year very differently than a 50 year old in regards to the percentage of the experienced life this represents to them. We all feel it, the years begin to fly by - here it i...

Yah unfortunately it's a bit of a damned if you do damned if you don't situation, only way to make things go faster for any sort of criminal trial would be to remove the rights currently afforded to accused. One such example would be to change proof requirements, instead of requiring proof beyond a...
