  1. I think "no goverment" in the article means only that there is no defined group of people you can point at as "the government" right now, that means there's a superposition government, a Schroedinger goverment if you will, like the atom whose state is unknown at the time, but when they finally observe it, goverment will turn out to be one group of guys or other group of guys, not "non existent" :/ Perhaps they will remain that way for long enough to just get used to the fact that they don't really need the goverment in their daily lives, but as I read from it, various previous decisions of previous governments may soon bite them in the ass.
  2. About the example with two people in a room: If they get into a fight and each gets injured, voila, they just both transitioned into less preferable state. They could even fight so bad that they both die from injuries and blood loss shortly in which case they just both murdered each other in the same time.
  3. Being forced to live a life you no longer want to live is one of the worst fates I could imagine. If you can't end your life on your terms, it means it never was a right of yours, but a compulsion. And I don't really believe anything can be "both", they would just call it "also a right" to try to hide the fact that you're forced to do things you don't want to, like school. What bothers me is that suicide is considered an undeniable sign of insanity while in some situations, it just is the most logical thing to do and the person needs actual help, not medication. :/
  4. I'm under the impression that your position is more a social and familial deal of a "backup parent" than a matter of faith, as your affirmed atheism didn't impossibly it from the beginning. As long as raising the child with your values won't directly contradict their ways, there will be little conflict. Respectably confirming no one is under any wrong impressions shouldn't hurt. The parents shouldn't expect you to tell the child things you don't believe in, so I would go ahead and try to raise her like your own, adding a smudge of polite phrasing with the matters of faith if they come up.
  5. I would like to add some people to that list: Pearl. From Steven Universe. and Connie from Steven Universe. As well as majority of the witches from Discworld novels, who, while not often engaged in fierce battles, are taking the effort to age wise, interconnect their communities and protect their lands and people when it is needed. By the way, Twilight Sparkle does qualify as well. Also, don't multum of female characters from those shonen action manganimes (Naruto, Fullmetal Alchemist...) fit that description anyways?
  6. I agree having Janusz KorWin Mikke on the show would be quite an event, as he has very strong personality and is quite outspoken, seeing him on the show would be quite entertaining event. It would also be some way to drag Poles supporting the guy to this show.
  7. Wow, this is mental. What can we do to make Facebook close this page? So far it looks like it's serious to me. So far only half a thousand "like" this site. It looks like it's very new. Do we spam their photos with actual cancer facts?
  8. Well, now I have fitting earphones with these little rubbery plugs I can wear when I go into the world, but wouldn't that just look really oddly if I raised kids with plugged ears?
  9. I would accept it as an April fools joke, honestly.
  10. I dunno... it seems slightly bland for a review. I guess some people would go "has he reviewed other games?" and many would figure "oh, he's some guy trying to branch out and earn traffic with the game community, but isn't really animator, comedian nor letsplayer, lame" What I mean is, maybe some more of the "real" Molyneux shows in the Frozen video than the Doom review. Though his entertaining speech patterns are visible there as well and might bait some new people in. Anyways, it is a valid attempt to sneak his way into "different people's yutubs" as he did into mine, so if it creates a chance to fish out the philosophical cookies from the gaming crowd...
  11. Glad to be a member of this project.
  12. Oversensitivity mostly to loud and shrill sound, a mark of autistic or autistic-ish people from what I've gathered. The only way for me to "develop" it would be if I internalised my knowledge about the sound responding cells in ears being only cells in your body that don't even try to regrow if destroyed, so if you shatter them with loud noise, it's over, you don't regain that hearing again even if you tried to spend the rest of your life in relative quiet, you're irreversibly harmed. Though the only reason I would look for that information in the first place would be because I've been experiencing pain and discomfort from certain noises in my environment and wanted to know if you even can "adapt" your ears and just "get used to it" like you could do with your eyes, adapting them back and forth from relatively brighter or darker environment. In any case, I don't see how would it be not mine. I can argue that its evolutionary purpose could be to try to keep my hearing intact in case I may need it for something.
  13. I always heard the definitions to be mainly about where do you energize and what tires you: alone time or time with people. Nothing in this said that these introverts can't talk to people, only that they need some rest in between to get their thoughts in order and stuff, on a lone walk, reading a book, listening to their music, getting some work done Extroverts then would be people who need often contacts with others to function and get their energy from chatting, joking, mingling and socialising. Wouldn't that make introverts more independent, being able to draw strength from themselves, comfortable with solitude, less likely to get themselves in bad situations because of peer pressure or desperation for some kind of contact? As a kind of introvert myself I would advise you to see contact as something that, while possibly uncomfortable and maybe bothersome, needs to be done and when done right, carries profit, and meet small groups of people (I could spend more time comfortably with a single person than a group of absorbing people demanding conversing attention). Prepare yourself mentally beforehand, that might help to re-energize more effectively and have more to "spend" on the interactions and get you needed exercise of that skill. I don't think there is turning introverts to extroverts as the latter tend to organise their lives from meeting to meeting, with all the life being only interruptions that need to be dealt with with introverts usually see it quite the opposite way. In a way, they're different forms of life.
  14. I'm not yet in position to raise a child so I didn't look into all the possibilities, but I don't think I would go for surrogate if there are kids left in the world to adopt. Though I'm not sure if I would even be competent to raise a child with my oversensitivity.
  15. So you would go as far as to dump that information on potential partner before the two of you even finish ordering your coffee and figure out if you have similar enough movie tastes, or perhaps could it wait until second or third meeting, if they happen?
