| Is there something unusual about women having babies? As long as having babies is routine and no more or less a restriction on the opportunities of women within reason, it's not unreasonable to ban abortion. You don't talk much to your wife about how much it takes, do you? I had to give up my caree... |

| If you are in a red state, you most likely never would have been or would be interested in getting an abortion. That's extreme wishful thinking. Ok, of course men never consider getting an abortion. And some women, as long as their situation is roughly okay - that includes myself. And old people. H... |

| I think the anti-Japanese hysteria was rooted in WWII - similarily to anti-German sentiments that still linger among older generations here. One thing I find likely important about rule of law and predictability is: what becomes of your investments. If investments are predictable, money and technolo... |

| Personally, I am very optimistic about the regime of Singapore, another former colony. But I'm not sure if that applies to any country with a slightly larger size. But at least, the rule of law is definitely a part that China can learn from. (but it is said that their freedom of speech is even less... |

| We must also engage and empower the Chinese people -- a dynamic, freedom-loving people who are completely distinct from the Chinese Communist Party. "Kill the Indian in him, and save the man." It's a food for thought. On one hand, I really think Western policies don't account for cultural... |

Crazy, indeed.
Reminds me - I should update my passport, too. SHTF seems unlikely now but maybe some sudden opportunity for travel appears. |

| Ugly old hairy fat characters don’t get to kiss on screen in general. Perhaps they should! But that’s an ugly old hairy fat character problem moreso than a gay character problem. I will say that Phatos in “Eternals” was a rather portly and hairy fellow, but still looked like Brian Tyree Henry. Mayb... |
