Vigilance - none so blind as those who will not see. I’m sceptical of skeptical with a ‘k’. Interested in societal behaviour, psychology, politics, and history.

@amuse I think Musk’s Boring Company should bore out and build data centres underground for xAI and others. The temperature is consistent, they’re better protected, and they’ll be out of site, out of mind.

@salvo_mich47382 You’re not of the belief that we are to recognize our sinful nature and the battle against it throughout life? That we are to seek forgiveness through confession and absolution? And that we are to then receive His body and blood each Sunday? This is the basis of our liturgy.

[ScepticOwl @ScepticOwl]

@salvo_mich47382 Pastor, with all due respect, we go to service to be served - first with forgiveness and then with His body and blood. We have nothing to offer God other than offering up our sins.

@Ashworth101 Hi Louise - Mere Christianity always gets a nod as a great place to start when I see lists of his recommended books.

@michaelcrofford I didn’t deny it. But quoting him as saying “black women…” as a whole when he was specifically talking about those in question was conniving and manipulative. Charlie would never say there aren’t brilliant black woman who could qualify fairly for the role meritoriously.

@libsoftiktok On a side note, notice how Tesla is called out when there’s a collision, but ya seldom hear about a Honda, Chevrolet, or Kia that was invoked in a collision?

@pentamom65 I’m getting the impression we’re arguing the same thing but might be missing each other 😬

[ScepticOwl @ScepticOwl]

@pentamom65 Matt challenged her to find the “exact”words that confirm Charlie sad “black women”. Those exact words have not been found. Speaking of elementary comprehension.

@semerda @Stargoat5 @Maga4liberty I believe a good example of this is in Israel: see Kibbutz
Recommend reading unbiased analyses about this experiment.

[ScepticOwl @ScepticOwl]

@michaelcrofford It has “black women” quoted and attributed to Charlie. That’s what Matt challenged the journalist to find. Punctuation matters. Charlie talking to them versus talking about an entire population is very different.

@LJohnson0013 @mattvanswol It has “black women” quoted and attributed to Charlie. That’s what Matt challenged the journalist to find. Punctuation matters. Talking to them versus talking about an entire population is quite different.

@elonmusk what about using @boringcompany and constructing tubular data centres underground? This can be a service offered to all companies wanting to build them.

@UnApoloJessi @jk_rowling Leaving comments tells the algorithm you’ll engage w/ Rowling’s posts. You just reinforced it.
A Ukrainian told me Harry Potter was instrumental in learning English as a kid & recommends it for this reason all the time. What you call bland, others call accessible; economical.

@gibramovic If they have the idea and hire the doers to execute the idea and turn it into product, they’re creating jobs.

@RealTrollFeeder @VigilantFox Randomized controlled studies are the gold standard for conducting pharmaceutical studies. Studies that are not randomized and controlled are not as reliable. Study findings are then peer reviewed to make sure they’re sound (not conclusion driven) and are repeatable.

@SpeakerWelchIL @MeetThePress @kwelkernbc So inhumane

@guinevereowlog Please do. I appreciate good faith dialogue. Thanks and all the best.

[ScepticOwl @ScepticOwl]

@guinevereowlog Indeed. It’s a matter of in-practice v. on-paper. Because it’s grievance-based, when the population begins agitating for communism, history shows that patience is sidelined, replaced by expediency and the impulse to crush descent. In China’s case, see “the Great Leap Forward”.

@LLBiggers Touch base with Richard Lindzen!
