• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do we need legal genders at all?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Does the net positive of Gene Therapy out weigh the negative? How so?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I feel like you learned something about the use of language from the replies to the first draft of this post, but I notice you did not retain my correction re: “net” positive.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Does the net positive of Eugenics out weigh the negative? How so?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Okay, three things, least important first:

  Using “net” positive already refers to comparing it against the negative. If you want just the positive before comparison, use “gross”.

  Second, there is no positive to eugenics. There are hypothetical gains to make but they are unrealizable. This is because the mechanisms to decide who gets to reproduce will immediately be corrupted. Immediately. Every time.

  And finally, the negatives are huge. Personal anguish, public unrest, widespread violation of civil rights depending on how draconian you make your regime, the downsides are huge and certain.

  So unrealizable and uncertain gains at the a huge and certain price: No. No eugenics.

  If you want to personally have lots of children with smart, beautiful, talented people, well, get in line.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If Q-Tips are not for ears what are they for? I use them to clean each individual key on my laptop from time to time.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They are totally for ears. They are for drying your ears after you rinse them with hot water to flush out the wax.

  Don’t use them while your ears are still waxy.

  Also, you use them with acetone to carefully strip polish or super glue from the edges of things.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why is the approach to nudity and sex in films and tv so vastly different between the US and Europe?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  In this case, it really is just because Americans are prudes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why is China helping out Nepal? When they pretty much made Nepal and the Dali Lama a sworn enemy?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  They want to annex Nepal. So they decry things that make Nepal more independent. But giving aid makes Nepal more dependant on China, not less.
