You're just posting nonsense that's not even remotely true

Elizondo would be named Chief of Staff

everything i have ever learned about being a sailor back in those days leads me to believe it was a complete nightmare. The Terror was pretty chilling even without the supernatural stuff, i forget the other sailors show between 1700-1900 show i watched recently

chimps and humans rape and murder for the sheer pleasure of it too. It is the sentience that makes any of it meaningful.


Natural vs Unnatural is a odd concept to me. The pagan gaia types are abhorred at sentience when it hurts a non sentient thing. If macro-evolution is true how are cities and human constructs not natural?

Thats a good book.

Terror had a season 2 and it absolutely sucked ass, I didn't finish it.

1 was great though.

i may have used the wrong word. the point i was trying to make is that i do not think animals even bother to conceive of human concepts such as sexual orientation, or ethics, or any of that shit that we conceptualize and have words for. maybe some can learn better than others, or perhaps some animals are sentient for all we know, but they don't communicate with us in terms we always understand so it's tricky to tell.

i used to train dogs for a living and a big part of that was teaching people to try to think of how situations and their own behavior appears to their dog, but ONLY in concepts a dog might understand.

but yeah, i've often thought of human invention as itself a natural extension of our natural abilities. like why would god give us brains if we weren't meant to use them? it's partly why i am not an anprim.

and I love Dan Simmons but i have not read the book, just seen the show. the Hyperion Cantos was a great series.

2 was not nearly as good, no idea if it was even based on a book but i did finish it. season 1 was incredible and grim as hell!

I was agreeing with you. There is a lot of behaviors in the animal world that people try to associate with human behavior and I find it silly. Like Jordan Peterson and lobsters. I like a lot of what the guy says in regards to individual providence but we are not lobsters.
