Unless of course the dominant intelligence in the Cosmos is the Cosmos itself.

Well put. That makes perfect sense. Thank you for your input.

This is great. Thank you so much! I was curious if you had any advise on figuring out per project rates? I'm pretty new at making Wordpress sites but I make nice, handsome, respons…

Just last night I watched a really, really great documentary on crow intelligence called "A Murder of Crows". I highly, highly recommend it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s472Gjb…

This map reminds me just how split the state I live in, Washington, is. Living in Seattle it's hard to imagine we come in at the second highest category.

> Once you stop believing the NYTimes, well, what do you believe? You can believe anything a random site on the internet says. So one obvious answer, which you left out, is to actu…

Yeah. That's interesting. I guess their ancestors shouldn't've formed empires. I imagine it'd be sort of hard to keep a racially separated empire.

Yeah, I agree with this. On the internet it's so easy to get sucked into an echo chamber and completely cloister oneself in some belief system or another. Then every other perspect…

I find it really interesting that at a micro level on forums like this there is the same goodness and kindness to one another. People doing each other favors, people encouraging on…

Semantic drift.

I find the use of this picture quite immorel.

This is not without precedent: February 3 [1849]: The Raleigh Register runs an advertisement for women to go to the Gold Rush and get a rich husband, titled "A Chance FOR A LADY." …

Seriously. I just spent a good deal of time roaming around Churchill on Google Street View and it seems utterly desolate. Wikipedia says there are 813 people. One of them's blowing…

I'm still running my T-Mobile G2 (HTC Desire) which I got in 2010. It's starting to get a little old and act a little odd sometimes but I hope to keep it for a year or two more.

Buckminster Fuller style domes sound like a good bet.

What's really interesting to me is that it seems like some very, very powerful and well-connected player, who either has access to the communication networks or people at the top o…

Why is the lady in the video on this page reporting this from Russia even though she said they got the docs from Snowden before he went to Russia? Are ALL their pundits in Russia f…

As an urbanite myself I find this quite endearing.

"You'll be able to watch your videos for 5 hours until they are deleted forever." Fixed that for you: "We'll be able to watch your videos for 5 hours until they are deleted forever…

I'd be really interested in scientific information about this. I have been practicing Qigong for a little more than a year and a half and I can absolutely say that it is the best t…

I may be mistaken or we may be both using different myths to justify our food based belief systems but I was under the assumption that at least the larger pre-Columbian societies w…

This will lead to a blossoming of linguistic creativity. People are going to grow a new sexual slang that evolves arms race pace in order to get around this. If this happens a pers…

I think "The Kingdom of God is Within You" by Tolstoy was the most life changing book I read this year. It made me start thinking about the idea of sin, which I haven't given much …

I was given anti-depressants and ADD medication when I was in college. I went to a cognitive psychologist who gave me a barrage of tests and told me I was off the charts ADD and ha…
