    Stop Killing Your Pets!

    Dromond is on my ignore list so I can't see his comments other than what people quote, but I would wager he was directing his remark at me. I stand by what I said, too. I have always cared about the health of my pets and never tried to overfeed them. I don't know anyone who overfeeds their...

    Second Thoughts About Gain

    Good advice on this thread. I think Blackjack put it best. One thing I would add is that there is a little bit of a tragedy here: Our bodies handle extra fat differently. Some people can handle hundreds of extra pounds healthily for their whole lives. Some people start to get sick with even...

    Stop Killing Your Pets!

    It seems like this thread is just a proxy for those who believe in the sentiment that being fat is inherently unhealthy and will ultimately kill you. I don't think it's really about animal rights at all. On the issue of animal rights, it's true that pets don't possess the intelligence to...

    House GOP Passes Farm Bill, Cuts Food Stamps

    I know that most people who aren't political activists are tempted to say that "both parties are equally bad," but that's just not true these days. There is something deeply, seriously wrong with the Republican Party.

    What's on the dinner table tonight?

    Herb-encrusted pork--my own concoction--with potatoes stewed in onions.

    Is George Zimmerman innocent?

    To answer the title question: Is Zimmerman innocent? No. But is he guilty of second-degree murder? As far as I can tell--and it's important to note that I'm not aware of all the facts--it seems that he isn't. I think Zimmerman is guilty of voluntary manslaughter, possibly (though not definitely)...

    My fellow video game nerds, whatcha been playing? Part 2

    I have really, really, really been wanting to play the Final Fantasy XIII trilogy, the last installment of which isn't even out yet. I don't have a PS3, though. Does anyone know if the PS4 will play PS3/2/1 discs and/or have a virtual store like the Wii?

    Is it harder to come out as an FA or an FFA?

    It's harder to come out as a female fat admirer. By default, our society makes pretty much everything harder for females than for males (and for queer folk, harder still). The only mitigating factor is that this same misogyny also works in reverse, meaning that males get a much bigger pass on...

    The us has the best health care system in the world.

    The U.S. does have the best healthcare system on Earth, bar none...for those who can afford it. For those who can't, it ranks pretty much dead last in the industrialized world. Thankfully things will improve somewhat under the Affordable Care Act, which strongly benefits the lowest-income...

    US Hypothetical Question: Goodbye to the South

    It doesn't take much imagination. When one pays attention to national and local politics the way I do, the conclusions I drew in my last post are inevitable. The only question is "To what degree?" Every single thing I mentioned in my last post is something that Christian fundamentalists have...

    US Hypothetical Question: Goodbye to the South

    A new Confederacy under American Christian fundamentalism, dominated by the dominionists and charismatics, would be the world's only current Christian equivalent to the atrocities currently happening in the Islamic fundamentalist world. It would be a pariah nation. Women would lose many of their...

    A Sad Situation

    Between the events of this thread and my recollection that bigmac also flatly denies the existence of human trafficking--one of the biggest scourges in the world today--I put him on my ban list. With his posts blocked out, along with those of trolls like superoda and veggies, this thread is...

    A Sad Situation

    It's tempting to judge other people by the mere sight of them, and I've learned to expect that anti-fat attitudes are now the norm at Dimensions. I simply want to add this: What bigmac is describing is prejudice. He noticed those people's situation only because of their weight. The reality is...

    My biggest fear is...

    You don't have to agree with it, of course. I don't agree with your destruction of spiders. But it is honestly my biggest fear.

    My biggest fear is...

    My biggest fear is that civilization will regress into a conservative religious minefield of tribal societies where women are property, ethnic groups murder each other, and art, technology, and liberty all vanish from the living memory of all but a few rich people. We live today in the best...
