TITLE: NFL Player wants NFL to consider permitting marijuana use for pain management
POST: question, both medical marijuana and adderall are both banned NFL substances. Adderall is allowed with a prescription, so why wouldn't medical marijuana be allowed with a prescription if a player is in a state where medical marijuana is legal? edit. /u/btbrian makes a great point. "For one thing, it would inherently give players in states where it is legal an edge if it does have performance related (pain management) effects like they claim"
POST: NFL is a national organization and most likely follow federal laws. Lots of companies in green states don't allow marijuana use because of that or because they can still just make it their policy


TITLE: In search of a dog groomer experienced with anxious dogs
POST: There is a place off republic road called Fetch. You can bathe your dog there and they provide brushes, towels, shampoo. If you go on Wednesday it is half price for dog wash Wednesday.
POST: Oh man, I completely forgot that they make those wash your own pet here things. Thanks for the reminder, going to go this week.


TITLE: Master of Magic : Master of No Magic
POST: Loooool. Their immunity is so op. I thought this was going to be a warlord war trolls run or something from the title
POST: This playthrough came about because someone asked if I had ever thought about playing a game with no books. You can get no books, but it screws up some of the retort picks ( you can only have 6). So you end up taking channeler and having to lose out on a better pick like artificer/conjurer/famous.


TITLE: Can we consider humans as an invasive specie?
POST: Not by definition. [<URL>](<URL>)
POST: Interesting article and thanks for sharing, but let me to be skeptic about: *" 3) An invasive species is introduced to a new habitat: Humans move themselves; there is no outside entity facilitating their spread.* *4) An invasive species had adverse effects on its new habitat and/or on human health: Humans meet this part of the definition in too many ways to count. "* If we observe the increase level of [world population](<URL>), and we observe in [Google Maps](<URL>) how cities and towns are growing their [urban areas](<URL>), and all the impacts in climate change especially about the [consumption of natural resources](<URL>) , I think it is a possibility to consider humans are invasive species.


TITLE: The sex offender registry should only be for people for individuals who pose a risk to the safety of others. Not some 16 year old who sent a dick pic!
POST: Imagine being a horny naive 16 year old. You were talking to a girl, you guys exchange nudes. You're 21. It's been revealed to other adults that you sent a picture of your dick (nice cock btw). You're on the sex offender registry. You will get almost all job offers turned down. Your life is fucked because someone decided your life should be shit for being a horny teenager.
POST: 21 year old aren't teenagers

Appeal to Ridicule: Person 1=people who support the regulation, X=Any person who send a unrequested sexual picture should be registered as sex offender, Person 2=Poster, X'=Any person who send sexual pictures should be registered as sex offender (which include consenting teenagers)

straw man: P1 = first poster, Y = sex offender registry shold be only for people who pose a risk, not consentent teenagers, P2 = second poster, A = 21 year old are not teenagers

nothing

TITLE: No mans sky performance "quest"ions
POST: try setting VRCompositor and VRServer priority to real time from task manager. this seems to be a general solution for microstuttering in certain pcs. also make sure the Nvidia in-game overlay is disabled (geforce experience setting)
POST: do i have to have vr on to find these settings?


TITLE: Dolly's Braces
POST: [Nerdy girl with pigtails and braces is a common stereotype](<URL>). Dolly looks very similar to that stereotype, thus people get the details mixed up. That said, this is one of the best MEs around as it would fit really well together with Jaws, so it's weird that they didn't use braces in the movie.
POST: That's a pretty big "thus" you've thrown into the mix there. If this was just people getting details mixed up, the Mandela Effect would not sustain the interest it has.

ad populum: A lot of people have interest in Mandela Effect, thus Mandela Effect is true


TITLE: Any suggestions on good conspiracy books?
POST: Not really conspiracy-related, but I'd recommend *"The Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark" by Carl Sagan*, as it explains methods to help distinguish between ideas that are considered valid science, and ideas that can be considered pseudoscience.
POST: Sagan doesn't really go into history as much as he talks about the history of pseudoscience. It is better to learn something like the [Trivium method](<URL>) before doing your own research. The Trivium method gives a great toolset for anybody to learn and research for themselves. It is also very helpful to learn about [fallacies](<URL>), as well.


TITLE: What's something that you like, but hate the fan base?
POST: Anime. Every time I find one that I like. I mention it to other people and then they feel the need to shit on whatever I'm watching and say I should watch something else because it's better.
POST: Honestly, as an anime fan, i haven't really experienced this. It may be my group of friends or something being less combative about anime that they like, but i only come across the occasional person like that when i mention black clover really.


TITLE: Plant food damage while a Power Mint is activated
POST: It depends on the plant. Some do get boosted, some don't.
POST: I dont think it depends on the plant. Are you sure that you understood my question? Anyway, if you are sure, does Parsnip get boosted?


TITLE: Biden's plan increases UI by $1600/month, increase food stamps by 15%, gives every family $3000/yr per child (extra 600 per child if under 6), adds 14 weeks of paid leave, extends the rent moratorium, cuts child poverty in 1/2, and raise the minimum wage to $15. Why are leftists STILL mad?
POST: Who is mad about this? What did I miss?
POST: a lot of leftists are mad that its 1400 checks not 2000, because it was meant to supplement the 600 passed in december

causal oversimplification: X = Biden's plan with only 1400 checks instead of 2000, Y = leftists are mad, A = punctual measure, B = not enough, etc.

TITLE: Debate on the authenticity of the Qur'an
POST: Yes, there has been a response. Here's a point by point refutation of each claim made, along with full citations listing and quotes: <URL> I'm the author of the paper, so I'd be willing to answer any questions you have.
POST: Did you send this to either of the speakers? Just curious as if you took the time to actually debate each of his points, it'll be interesting to hear both of the speakers thoughts on it.


TITLE: The Decision Not to Call in the FBI is Looking Worse and Worse
POST: It just doesn't make sense. If Kavanaugh is innocent he should be yelling from the hills demanding an investigation by the FBI.
POST: Let's remember also that *it is a crime to lie to federal law enforcement.* (See Michael Flynn, George Papadapapapolis, Carter Page, etc.) If Dr. Ford *is* lying, then Republicans should be *eager* to get her in front of an FBI interrogator. Can you imagine what kind of huge political win that would be for Republicans? >"Breaking News: 'Me too' Democrat lies to FBI and is facing jail time just weeks before the midterm elections, vindicating Justice Kavanaugh and President Trump in the process. And after that, is political correctness killing your dog? We scream, you decide."

False Dilemma 2: X=Dr. Ford is Lying and Republican are eager to call FBI, Y=Dr. Ford is not Lying and Republican don't want to call FBI

False Dilemma: X=Dr. Ford is Lying and Republican are eager to call FBI, Y=Dr. Ford is not Lying and Republican don't want to call FBI

First causal oversimplification: X = If Kavanaugh is innocent, Y = Kavanaugh should require an investigation, A = Kavanaugh could have something else to hide, B = Kavanaugh does'nt want to be scrutinized, etc.

Second causal oversimplification: X = If Kavanaugh is innocent, Y = Kavanaugh should require an investigation, A = Kavanaugh could have something else to hide, B = Kavanaugh does'nt want to be scrutinized, etc.


TITLE: Did not think it was possible
POST: This isn't impossible odds at all. It makes sense that the bar would snap when he was in a position to land, it would be bizarre if it didn't. That's the point at which the most weight is pulling on it, due to gravity.
POST: Would've thought it was designed to resist downwards force more than lateral or upwards though as that's how most people would use it.


TITLE: I'm writing an essay about putting forth a case to use a Jungian lens when examining and critiquing literature and need help finding a scholarly article or study about why men are interested in things whereas women are interested in people. Must be a biological or psychological article.
POST: I would be more indifferent to this assertion but for the established reality that *some* men use it as a tool to minimize the importance of women's perspective on life, the universe and everything.
POST: Could you clarify this? Not sure if Im interpreting what you are saying correctly Im using it as a point that the Postmodernist lens when critiquing literature doesnt include facts in their analysis.


TITLE: 74% of voters also say they support the federal government breaking up large technology companies to reduce their power and increase competition and innovation
POST: So what would be the down side of this? I'm just curious if someone could tell me that would be great.
POST: The government has no right to spilt up your business

Appeal to fear: X=The gouvernement does not have the right to split companies, Y=Otherwise it has the right to split all companies, which attack my personnal rights

No right is a strong sentence. I feel like there is an issue with the argument such as appeal to fear : attacking your rights, or strawman: what would be the downside ? => the gouvernment is not able to which does not answer the question.

TITLE: The Qanon crowd is realizing there's no storm coming
POST: Four years of faith in internet strangers over their own friends and families is ending exactly as expected.
POST: I still don't think the whole QAnon thing was real. I think it was made up by trolls to see how much stupid shit they could get people to believe.


TITLE: 'One job should be enough': Marriott hotel workers' strike hits eight US cities
POST: I shouldn't be a race to the bottom, thankless jobs like EMTs should get paid far more than they do now, nobody is saying that minimum wage workers should get paid more than them. To those who argue *well x job pays y amount* do you think that maybe they should get a significant wage hike to so they don't live in poverty either?
POST: > To those who argue well x job pays y amount do you think that maybe they should get a significant wage hike to so they dont live in poverty either? For real, I don't understand why this is so hard for people. But every time I bring this point up, GOP_Fanboy just reverts to "lol who are you to decide who gets paid what communist etc"

Appeal to ridicule: Person 1=GOP_Fanboy, X=Increase wage will/could have bad consequences / you need to work hard for the economy, Person 2=Poster, X'=I work hard, i want other to struggle as well

hasty gen: P = GOG fanboys, S = some GOP fanboys known by the second poster said that "one job should be enough" is a communist politics, C = all GOP fanboys think S


TITLE: That rock sounds kinda nice ngl
POST: Apart from the moral issue, "just join the military" does nothing for young people with disabilities or conditions that disqualify them. And before some asshole says something like, "Harhar just lose weight," there are waaaay more disqualifying issues than that and many are totally out of a person's control.
POST: Never thought about this. What about clerical jobs in the army? Every organization needs desk jockeys. Would those just be "normal" jobs, as compared to enlisting in the army?


TITLE: New Zealand announces official Travel Warning to New Zealanders in the United States due to the upcoming election and civil unrest
POST: This sounds like the sort of thing you hear about Middle East countries not the formerly most powerful nation in the world.
POST: Dictatorships have occurred all throughout history and all corners of the globe. It takes a severe amount of head in the sand to think it can't happen to you.


TITLE: Fuck politics
POST: He *does* talk about politics. What JP *doesn't* do is circle jerk with the right. I think that's what you meant to say - "can we stop with the right-wing circle jerk?"
POST: Yeah but i just think if we go into politics, we should go with as little bias as possible and that's not what's happening here.


TITLE: What are the most cowardly things a person can do? POST: Refusing to acknowledge that you made a mistake and making excuses instead of being better. We're human. We're flawed - all of us.
