From Naked Lunch I managed to keep up my habits performing cut-rate abortions in subway toilets. I even descended to hustling pregnant women in the public streets. It was positively unethical. The question of abortion has been with us for at least 2,500 years. No law yet passed has made it go away. However, with…

The thought of illegal transactions with bit coin is interesting. But how is delivery handled?

When discussing the abortion question I believe we can’t just look at one thing. We have to look at a lot of things. A question then. Is economics a moral issue? Is it moral for the government to rob Peter to Pay Paul? The Catholic Church seems to think so. They are staunchly anti-abortion. Even…

Commenter Kate left a comment on my post Life At Conception Act that deserves a wider audience. So here it is: ====== Oh, the fun I could have with this… I’ll be nice.

You can find an article on what he did at The Atlantic. You can also get the short version at Navy Training Wins Election For Obama. Further thoughts. No guy who looks like that (another picture) is going to be hired by Republicans. They won’t be hiring me either. But defense contractors hired me back…

I just went to the home page of Prevention Magazine and entered “endocannabinoid” into the search engine. Nothing. There are more endocannabinoid receptors in the body than any other receptor type. Nothing at Prevention. If you go to go to the NIH site and search “endocannabinoid” you will get over 120,000 cites (It was 130,000+…

Commenter Gringo left a link to an Atlantic piece about how the Obama team won the election that had this little gem embedded: Hatch was playing the role of dungeon master, calling out devilishly complex scenarios that were designed to test each and every piece of their system as they entered the exponential traffic-growth phase…

The Old Victorianism – Sex The New Victorianism – Endocannabinoid Break the New Victorianism. Post “Endocannabinoid” as a comment everywhere – no explanation just “Endocannabinoid”.

ECN ran a piece a little over a week ago about how the Republican Party was technologically weak when it came to election winning technology. The evidence is pretty good for this. Normally when the economy is down the party out of power stands a very good chance of winning a national election. But 2012,…

Commenter AJ was asking a few questions at Eric’s More worthless than a degree from a diploma mill. AJ believes in the value of schooling. I do not. I believe in the value of education. Specifically – educating yourself. I decided he deserved some answers. ================ “I don’t understand how being an aerospace engineer without…

I was discussing things with an anarcho communist (which I used to be in another life) and thought it might be some fun to repeat parts of the discussion for your amusement and edification. Unlike my usual this is probably going to go long. He starts out by proposing free exchange over the internet by…
