Humans are social animals. In order to live in a society, we need a common set of rules. Without rules, will we degenerate into selfish creatures who care nothing for each-other? If that's the case, what is a free man? One could argue that only a fully self-reliant individual who lives in complete ...

That's a shame.

At least after 10:30 PM you can call in a noise complaint.

Has the situation gotten any better since your last post?

That sucks.

I read Dr. Pierce's essay, and I'd like to add something. Another big problem with drug use (or any addiction), is that over time the addict doesn't care about anything other than feeding his addiction. Family, friends, community-- nothing matters other than the next fix / high. It ...

What about their behavior? And does the weed smell?

I have no idea about Southern Georgia, but we had the same issue in my neighborhood. That family has been a nuisance for many years. They used to have blacks come up from down state and drop drugs off for selling. Eventually the police department got fed up, and kept putting them in jail. Supposedly ...

I've been studying manifestation from various sources, and they all seem to agree on one key principle: "As ye think, so ye become".

I used to get terribly sick many times a year. The pattern was always the same. I would notice I started to come down with something, then wonder about what it could ...

Consider for a moment that men have historically been the ones drafted to fight in wars. They are the ones who end up filling the massive graveyards when politicians can't or won't find a diplomatic solution. This being the case, I believe it's immoral for women to vote. It would be one thing if ...

We could also discuss whether or not child support and alimony are just in a moral context.

After the feminist movements, women have at least the same rights as men. In many states they can abort a baby, and the fathers has no say in the matter. Furthermore they can choose to divorce men. So if men ...

Thirteenth Amendment
Section 1

Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.

Somehow the courts have repeatedly ruled that compelling ...

Dear Users,

We recently discovered that an attacker exploited a vulnerability in phpBB to authenticate as a founder account on our forum. The vulnerability has since been patched, and we have taken steps to secure the affected account.

At this time, we have found no evidence that passwords ...

I have found that when it comes to meditation, as with most things, frequency is more important than duration. Many people will claim you have to set aside 30+ minutes a day to reap the benefits of meditation. I believe as little as 5 minutes is enough to calm my mind and dump stress. In fact, I ...

For years, I've had a cup of tea with breakfast. I used to drink the cheap variety that came in 100 bag boxes. Then I got concerned about microplastics from the bags leaching into my hot water. So I got one of those little stainless steel diffusers that makes a cup of tea, and started getting loose ...

Back in 2021, I was convinced that Bitcoin was a giant Ponzi scheme . Over time, many things have slowly changed my mind, and I'm convinced that Bitcoin is humanities best hope of escaping the fiat system.

Time and again, governments have proven themselves an enemy to the people they claim to ...

I watched a great interview with him. He's very aware of the Jewish Supremacy problem in America, and wants to free us from this rotten system. His campaign website is awesome. I especially love his platform, where he wants to end the Federal Reserve, Income Tax, and all foreign aid. Makes me wish I ...

I wrote an article on the subject, and would like to hear what other people think. I'd like to add that overall, games have kept up with inflation somewhat. You can go on pricecharting's index page and click any system listed there. Go ahead and expand the chart for that console to list all the ...

Personally I've only played it on the SNES, and I thought it was pretty good. Incoming shells are a bit nerve wracking though.

And here's a marine in full dress uniform getting his hand broken by a U.S. Senator for protesting the war:

So, we went to war for Israel again. No declaration of course. Congress is absolutely useless.

Whelp, I already regret voting for Trump, and we got a few more years of this bullshit. Who's looking forward to being flooded with millions of third world trash once the Democrats take over?

Oh, and I ...

Wanna have a blast? See what the Jews have been doing to New Jersey. For all the hot air they blow about their love of minorities, they sure gave those Black and Hispanic kids the shaft when they divert resources to Jewish schools. In one instance the Jews literally starved a minority school of ...

I want to know how someone can believe both in the theory of evolution, and in racial equality at the same time. The former postulates that everything alive today is the result of ruthless competition, which wiped out over 99% of the species that have ever existed on Earth. The later proposes that ...

Philosophy as I have come to understand it is supposed to be about the pursuit of truth. What if the big metaphysical truths are beyond our comprehension? Humans rely on heuristics and other means to solve every day problems. But how do we prove or disprove something as big as the existence of God ...

Why do we in America refer to ourselves as being White instead of European? I suspect it has much to do with the historical reality on the ground. The colonists came here from various parts of Europe and all found themselves facing a large and alien indigenous population. Hostilities frequently ...

You might be wondering why we have a rants section on the forums. I believe it's necessary and healthy for people to blow off steam. There's a lot of stuff in the world that can drive people insane. If people are not allowed to talk about their problems, some resort to violence. So think of this ...

If you want to start a thread about a piece of writing you enjoyed:

If it’s in the public domain and short enough to read comfortably in one sitting, you may paste the full text in your opening post.

For longer works, or works that are not in the public domain, you may link to the text or ...

I'm convinced this is intertwined with his short story Elenora (almost the same name even). I wonder if there's also some reference to Ermengarde in his other works? I suspect the three are actually the same woman, in spirit if not in body.

Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and ...
