Thanks, ... I guess.

His dude was arrested for *making* kiddie porn, not just having it. That's some heinous shit. If Jared had any knowledge of it they should both burn

You seem to know a lot about this story. Maybe too much about this story.

When did your unhealthy hobby start?

It's sort of the news, dude. And Jared's only been questioned because the guy worked for him and, so far, that's where it's ended.

But I'm sure SJWs will find some way to trash him because it's guilty until proven innocent and innocent can never be proven to an SJW. Hopefully he invested well. And has a good attorney. Because this shit can ruin you.

Of course, ruining the innocent never matters to the SJW. After all, some feminists/SJWs believe that an innocent man who goes to jail on a false rape accusation should thank the bitch who put him there for the valuable lesson.

So PeeZus falls for a post on some social media site for MDs, presented as a training experience in vascular surgery, but soon revealed to be a fictional account. Does he correct his blog post to indicate this? Of course not - he uses it as an excuse to boast about training medical students in "animal surgery:"

#22, Rowan vet-tech:
I’ve been there! When I was training med-students in an animal surgery, that was my primary job: they were doing the cutting, I was trying to keep the animal alive, and it was constant, nerve-wracking monitoring. My personal nightmare was not giving enough anesthetic, and having the poor thing wake up mid-surgery — you were constantly trying to keep the animal in this narrow window between death and consciousness.
Rabbits were the worst. That window was so narrow, they were so fragile, and if they woke up they’d start screaming. I’d have to hover over them constantly, watching heart rate and breathing rate, and adjusting the anesthetic practically minute by minute.
Rabbits convinced me my future was going to be in invertebrates and fish.

Something smells fishy to me, and it's not the Danio rerio.

It doesn't make a lot of sense though he does have a BS in Zoology. And I can't imagine someone with a BS in Zoology teaching medical students about surgery. And it's not something he'd have been doing in graduate school because his PhD program was all Zebra Fish.

Really, I suspect it's a bit of puffery. He was probably an assistant to someone when he was an undergradate.

Kind of like when I was in culinary school and we put a big spread for an Alton Brown book signing. I was just a culinary student. But I could puff it up and talk about how I catered the Alton Brown book signing. Let people believe it was more than it was.

You both seem to have forgotten that Dr. Richard Carrier (yes, doctor) already schooled us. Everyone already has herpes and STDs are not even a hassle. Just a simply howdy-doo to your doctor for a shot and you're back on the horse.

But only if the horse is into it.

I assume that the grunting/shrieking is like the kiai in some martial arts. It signifies an attacking move and is supposed to put the opponent off/focus the energy of the move. But in reality it means that you are a one-shot act. The time/focus used for a kiai should be spent flowing into the second and third attacking moves.

I never did the kiai. Except for kata's where it's required or in breaking demonstrations when it's expected. Otherwise I never saw the point as it was, pretty much, a distraction and interrupted the flow you needed to maintain, in sparring, against a good opponent.

Nope. Not a real ninja, or in deep cover.

....
No, it isn't - certainly not against "dictionary feminism". In fact, being trolled just like anyone else on the internet would argue that equality is nigh - a cause for celebration! (Can't find it now, but there was a survey last year that found women tend to receive more sexually explicit comments than men, but men tend to get more threats of violence, so it seemed like a pretty even playing field.)


...

Yes, it was a Pew Research Poll. Which also included this:

When American Internet users in a random survey by the Pew Research Center last year were asked if they had ever been stalked or harassed online, 13 percent of the women said yes—but so did 11 percent of the men. This is a surprisingly small gap within the poll’s margin of error.

In short, it seems that trolling is pretty much gender neutral. Men do more violent threats, though you will get sexual threats too. Women do more sexual threats, but they receive far fewer violence threats.

Over-all, they get fucked over by trolls the trolls on a pretty much equal basis.


Of course, the SJWs and the main-stream press reported it as a war against women. Because 'everyone gets trolled' lacks the big headline I guess. And certainly doesn't fit the ideological paradigm that is pushed by the MSM and SJWs.

So 50 year old Marisa Tomei has been cast as Spider-Man's Aunt May and some fans (not me; I''m fine with it) are complaining she's too young - and SJWs are suddenly forgetting that there are too few roles for older women and criticising the fans because fans are shitlords and therefore always in the wrong.

I've always read it as Meno Pause, instead, making reference to Plato's work on virtue. Therefore, menopause is when virtue takes a break, because you (the woman) can longer become pregnant, so you (the woman) can fuck anyone you wish without risk or pregnancy.

But there's AIDS now. Back in the 70s, all one needed was the pill. Barebacking was fine. Those were the good old days. Catch something? A quick trip to the doctor and drug store fixed it up. Moving freckles that itch? Brag to your friends and then go to the drug store again. Simpler times, simpler times!

I think that, because of the relative viciousness of HIV/AIDS, we have a somewhat rose-coloured memory of those good ol' STDs (then still VDs). Some of them, especially viral infections, never really cure, they just stick with you and some pop up every now and then (herpes). The bacterial ones are subject to antibiotic resistance. If you'd waited too long with treatment, possibly because you didn't recognise the symptoms straight away, the damage might be forever.

No, you don't want to go there with the Precious unprotected.

Yep. Gotta always use one of these...

I think Marvel is going with the modern take on Aunt May that they have in the new cartoon show.

http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/i ... 9_6815.jpg

It works for the young age that the show is aimed at but for preteen and up I don't like it. In the show Aunt May is a successful business woman who hasn't notice the teenager living in her house is a superhero mostly because she is busy living an awesome life. Peter doesn't have to worry about his Aunt at all.

Let's not forget: he DID say that, not would. Who can forget his hilarious comment on The Yeti's blog post about him?

Maybe you are sadly naive enough to think Christianized antiscientific Sex Ed isn’t lying to you, but facts are, more than a hundred million Americans have had numerous sexual partners, yet almost none of them ever get an STD (the rate is extremely low; even lower in more secular societies than in religious ones), and when you narrow the pool to those practicing safe sex, the rate of STDs is near zero.

Moreover, STDs are almost all incredibly trivial illnesses in modern practice (compared to, say, TB, which you can catch on mass transit, or food poisoning or E. coli or Salmonella infections, which you can get from eating food even from your own kitchen), almost all of which are easily cured with antibiotics. Herpes and HIV are the only exceptions (other than HPV, which most women already have, if Christians haven’t prevented them getting vaccinated). But 90% of the population already has Herpes (children get it from orally sharing toys), the variety that prefers the mouth, from which there is no other difference from the other kind than where it breaks out. If no one cares about mouth Herpes (and they don’t; no one shames anyone for it or thinks it’s a big deal to have it), only the genitally-obsessed shame-based prude will care about it appearing elsewhere on the body. Meanwhile, condoms and other safety practices confer extremely reliable protection against HIV (you are more likely to get a life threatening illness from eating out).

So to think about STDs as in any relevant sense different from food borne and air borne and touch-vectored illnesses is simply a manifestation of sex phobia and a prudish, sex-obsessed, self-hating worldview. The rate of catching a disease just going to the hospital is higher than the general population, but no one then thinks going to the hospital is shameful or that the people who get infections there deserved it or something. So this idea that getting an illness from sexual contact is somehow extra bad or deserved or anything negative at all is an example of the kind of childish, misery-inducing bigotry that typifies the Christian religion. Which makes it even more embarrassing when an atheist still believes that prudish Christian crap.

There's a solution for this sort of spousal issue: the "antidote" movie(s). My wife, for example, has a "thing" for Jeremy Irons. When this became a bit much for me, I brought home a copy of Waterland. When that didn't work, I got a copies of both Dungeons and Dragons and Eragon for the kids. When that still wasn't enough, I went all in and purchased Lolita (1997). Now she won't even watch The Mission any more (which is actually unfortunate, but worth it).

Hey tapatalk told me when you mentioned me. Neat.

I know you are kidding I am amazingly thick skin. No really. When I went to get fixed the doctor had an issue and he noted to me and the wife that my skin is really really thick.

But yeah if I can find a job I would be doing fine. I would say I had a good interview yesterday with a neat little company but after the last couple of interviews ended with nothing I know question my ability to gaude a good interview.

Then again I am working on the two lowest levels of Maslow's hierarchy so who knows right?

I think Hornbeck's major problem is that he actually believes his own bafflegab.

It's like this: Hornbeck, like Brony and few others on the FTB intellectual wrestling team, usually posts bunches of opaque ersatz word salad and bafflegab that, if properly textually analyzed, usually turns out to be mostly meaningless. And he uses formal, sometimes sophisticated language to puff it all up. He feels completely safe in posting nonsense because he knows full well that no one at FTB, neither blog hosts nor commenters, is ever going to do any form of fact checking or textal analysis of his bullshit.

But, anyway, I think what happens is that Hornbeck (Brony too) is so impressed with his own writing that he actually completely forgets that it doesn't mean anything. The bafflegab king is successfully baffled by his own gab.

Also, as has been made clear in the past by some of his own spelled out explanations of the meanings of cewrtain words, it is clear that he actually thinks that in using sophisticated language, it is the words, and not the content, that carries the full meaning of his theories and so on. If you get my drift.

I've never had statistics, but you got me curious: how on earth does the man apply it to put a number on the likelihood of a rape accusation being true? Why haven't the police figured this out, eh?

It went like this:

A. Odds of a false rape report: 2-8% to police (Lisak 2010). Let’s be charitable and say it’s 4%.
B. Odds of a false rape report involving alcohol: Kelly (2005) notes 13 of 120 cases the police considered false were dismissed due to alcohol consumption.
[snip]
Combining A and B together, we estimate the baseline odds of Smith falsifying her report as roughly 0.4%. Most importantly, this only takes into account Smith’s testimony; you can push it down further when you start adding in witnesses, and it doesn’t invoke any bloggers you hate. 0.4% is damn good, as you only need less than 1-10% to declare you’ve refuted the null hypothesis, or 20-35% to convict someone of a criminal act.

Damion asked him over and over to justify or defend this nonsense and he dodged, evaded, obfuscated over and over again. He genuinely seemed unable to even understand the criticisms, much less to address them in any meaningful way.

He also cherry picked his numbers. Even the FBI, which gives a low-ball estimate, comes up with 17% of reported rape accusations are false. The FBI number would be higher, but they're not the arbiter of false/unfounded. That's the local police department and many communities do not classify reports to 'false' or 'unfounded.'

Where studies have been done on the actual reports, by qualified forensic examiners/academicians, the false report numbers have been much, much higher. BTW, not all false reports are intentionally false, though it is the majority. Some are mistaken identity.

[Tribble]

What is it about these Bayesians who think they're Hari Seldon?

Apt reference. For those who don't know, Hari Seldon is the Foundation books' (Asimov) mathematician who can predict near and deep future events, with great specificity and accuracy. The idea was to account for all variables, including behaviors, etc, IIRC.

With his great knowledge, he was not only able to predict, but also able to influence the far future directly, setting up a galactic foundation to do so.

And then it all went sideways with The Mule. And, in any case, the Foundation spent much of their time behind the scenes influencing events to make them fall in line with Seldon's plan.

hehehe had this pop up in my youtube feed. No matter what you think of Galloway, he is a fantastic orator, and his mind is as sharp as a knife, loved how he gutted the morons of the US senate, he made their panel look like a club of mental deficients. It reminded me also that the wizard of oz song "ding dong the witch is dead" raced to the top of the charts, and all the media did there best to ignore it, if not actually refuse to play it! Establishment twats, I think they were expecting another bout of collective morony and faux sentimentality, like when that muppet diana croked it. Funny as fuck watching crowds of lemmings in group tears.

I fucking love Galloway, he's the only guy I have ever seen debate Hitchens and hand him his ass.
........

Funnily enough, what I think of Galloway is that he is less an orator than a bilious ranter who mistakes volume for substance. A hotheaded rabble rouser whose narcissism and refusal to let inconvenient fact stand in the way of his vomiting of hatred don't really appeal to me. His "convictions" are purely self-serving and driven by vendettas. Any point he ever makes in a debate tends to be undermined by his sheer odiousness. He holds up Saddam Hussein, the man who instigated the Iran-Iraq war and murdered who knows how many Iraqis and Kurds, as indefatigable and courageous in his scramble to spew vitriol at his enemies. There is no evil he won't support as long as it serves his ends. A thin-skinned bully who makes PZ Myers look unhypocritical. Nope, not fond of the man.

No. I used to do Matsubayashi Ryu karate and compete in tournaments when I was in college. Also fenced, though it was only the foil because I was new to it.

Shuri-te is divided into three styles, two are called Shorin-Ryu and a third is called Matsubayashi-Ryu.[4][5] Matsubayashi-Ryu is a style of Shorin-Ryu and the terms Matsubayashi-Ryu and Shorin-Ryu can be used interchangeably.[6] Normally, the style is referred to as Shorin-Ryu but when a definite distinction is required between the other styles of the Shorin-Ryu family (Kobayashi-Ryu, Shobayashi-Ryu and Matsumura Seito Hohan Sōken) then it is called Matsubayashi-Ryu.[7]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matsubayashi-ry%C5%AB

The only time we had to make a distinction was during kata competition. Matsubayashi Ryu katas can be slightly different than their Shorin Ryu cousins. They may have different points in the kata for strength displays. Some kicks have been removed or changed.

If they don't know you're Matsubayashi Ryu, they'll take points off because you 'did it wrong' even if you're perfect.

So I just heard something and it got me thinking. I feel sorry for a lot of these bastards that need trigger warnings on things. If something ever happens in their lives they are completely fucked.

As everyone here knows I am dealing with a breakup. I never thought there would be a time in my life in which I wasn't married to my wife. I was sure she would outlive me, Really I wasn't sure what will happen in my life but I was pretty sure that was going to be a constant.

I don't have that now and I have handled it pretty well so far. One of the reasons I have handled as well as I have is because I was expected to be a fucking adult. That when bad shit happens I am expected to be able to deal with it and at least function on a basic level. And you know that is what I am doing. I have needed the help of others but I have been taking steps necessary to get back to a somewhat normal place while out the same time trying to make some plans for the future.

I don't think a lot of these people could do it and I feel sorry for them. I don't think they have been allowed to become emotionally tough enough to handle some complete life changing event. I think most of them would crawl inside of a bottle.

I am not even going to get started on like a natural disaster happen to one of this asshats and they need to act quickly to save themselves or others.


Sorry just something I got to thinking about for some reason.

The only time we had to make a distinction was during kata competition. Matsubayashi Ryu katas can be slightly different than their Shorin Ryu cousins. They may have different points in the kata for strength displays. Some kicks have been removed or changed.

If they don't know you're Matsubayashi Ryu, they'll take points off because you 'did it wrong' even if you're perfect.

I did Goju Ryu & had to do those stupid kias during kata & breaking. Class was outside at the park during the summer so I got to endure random teenage peers riding by yelling "kia!!!" at me while the class pretended not to notice. Sucked.

Why aren't all restaurants Taco Bell? Must be bigotry against Latinos.

I don't know but they fucking should be. I like the ability to add a crunchy taco to any food I am ordering.

I attended an "all styles" Tae Kwon Do tourney and did my Silat form. The TKD form was very straight-forward with defined end/turn points, whereas mine was very circular and continuous. I didn't win that one. I also got disqualified for my left jab to the nose of my opponent in the semi-contact sparring.

That's about it. Bitch slapping.

I had a kick boxing fight which was far more satisfying (although they made us wear 14oz gloves and I wasn't allowed to use most of my techniques).

Funnily enough, what I think of Galloway is that he is less an orator than a bilious ranter who mistakes volume for substance. A hotheaded rabble rouser whose narcissism and refusal to let inconvenient fact stand in the way of his vomiting of hatred don't really appeal to me. His "convictions" are purely self-serving and driven by vendettas. Any point he ever makes in a debate tends to be undermined by his sheer odiousness. He holds up Saddam Hussein, the man who instigated the Iran-Iraq war and murdered who knows how many Iraqis and Kurds, as indefatigable and courageous in his scramble to spew vitriol at his enemies. There is no evil he won't support as long as it serves his ends. A thin-skinned bully who makes PZ Myers look unhypocritical. Nope, not fond of the man.

I remember seeing Galloway hosting a phone in show on an Iran backed tv channel called Press TV, which was rumoured to be linked to Bashar Al Assad. Not sure if any episodes are available online anywhere, but I challenge anyone here to watch one and not come away doubting that Galloway is a cunt of the highest order. Odious, opportunistic, shithead, string the fucker up I say.

In my younger days when I was a bouncer I once broke up a mass fight involving a bunch of young (18 to 22) lesbians. There were about 40 of them against me and another guy.

My technique was mostly picking them up and launching them behind me.

I have better fight stories but none that are as fun.

You can't actually count what happens in dreams.

Why, I myself have often found myself with 40 young lesbians. Then I wake up. I hate that bit.

For a couple of years I was a bouncer/security in the only gay club in north Alabama. In addition to watching the patrons I also guarded the parking lot. I have stopped and even caught vandals who went there just to destroy gay people's vehicles. I have had knives and once even a gun pulled on doing that work.

Unlike so many people that claim so because they change their profile picture or whatever I have actual put my body on the line to protect LGBT people.

The thing about 40 young lesbians I can tell you about is they are not that interested in you at all.

Black people make up 12% of the US population, but Greta Christina seems to spend 2/3 of her time obsessing about them. she also lives in a city (SF) that is only 6% black, but 15% hispanic and 34% asian.

WHY ARE THERE NO TV SHOWS WITH AN ALL-ASIAN CAST, GRETA, WHY?

They'd be boring. They'd all work hard, get good grades and become successful while respecting their elders, all without a lot of drama.
