| We had a saying in my family, "The Hodders are strange and the Reed are odd." The Reed side of my family takes great pride in being different than the rest, so being called 'normal' was an insult. The first I really got how different I was was in kindergarten when I witnessed an older kid ... |

| You made it up, didn't you? What's your point? All words are made up by someone and you don't seem to a etymology fanatic. There is no such word appearing in any of my network searches, except on this website. Google gives me the definition of NTwit on The Order of Her Noodly Appendage wiki as the ... |

When I realized I was intersexed it was just a feeling of, "So that's why e... |

| Hsingai, you've presented the same spurious "logic" that is used by wooists and flim-flam artists to "Trust me you can just take my word for it" is the Flim-Flamist logic and yet that the only proof you give for calling my logic spurious. Or are you talking about my New Agey exp... |

| I have won world prizes by applying physics to engineering, without benefit of formal schooling, so I'm reasonably certain that I do have a grasp of objective reality. You were unsure if Galilo or the Pope was the one that was wrong. However, I think that the Pope was sincere in maintaining the bel... |

| Thank you for defining post-truth, OP. To me, what you're describing sounds like argumentum ad populum . It's nothing new, really. I suppose you're saying a post-truth society is one where argumentum ad populum reigns supreme and you feel we're living in one now. It's not that argumentum ad populum... |

| So, did Galileo or the Pope lie consciously? Were there no sincere errors in olden times? No. But what lie did you think Galileo committed? To lie is to convince someone into thinking something you know is untrue https://www.japantimes.co.jp/opinion/2004/08/05/commentary/sincerity-is-not-good-enoug... |

If your smart you palm cards from the previous hand and cheat on future ones. but most people are too honest to do that. |
