Adele is vastly overrated.
The music scene of the last 25 years is total crap.
12-17 year old offenders should be tried as adults in adult courts and given the same sentences as adults.
There should be no disguising of identities or anonymity of people in media articles or obscuring faces in photographs. You should be man or woman enough to take the consequences of your actions. What cannot be said and done openly should not be said and done at all.

I can't stand this website or its community, and boredom is the only thing that keeps me coming back here. Every time I come here, I read something that makes me angry.

One of my favorite authors (Theodore Sturgeon) wrote a short story in which the protagonist stated: "I think people are either wolves or wolverines when they are not tapeworms or sheep." This jarred me, so I remembered it.

40+ years later, my version of same is: many (not all) human societies are built around intraspecies predation and parasitism, and in such societies, a tremendous amount of effort is invested in obscuring this. Aspies and other non-NTs who don't "work" that way tend to be isolated/marginalized in such societies precisely because we *don't* work that way. Non-NTs who DO work that way, i.e., sociopaths, tend to do extraordinarily well in such societies.

Thank God for anthropology, which taught me that not all societies are, or have been, predatory/parasitic.

I believe you should be married before you become a parent.

I hate drugs.

the older antipsychotics with their movement side effects are a more attractive treatment option than the newer ones with the hefty price tag and weight gain which can cause diabetes and death.

Pot makes people stupid.
