Future Timeline

I cannot think of a single place on Earth where the presence of American soldiers has helped in any way during my entire lifetime. But isn't that an oversimplification? The U.S. military doesn't just bomb or attack places. They provide a lot of peacekeeping, disaster relief and humanitarian aid wor...

There are two major problems with social media I'm able to identify, misinformation and narcissism. I wouldn't just ban misinformation platforms, I'd also ban social media platforms in general where people easily post thousands of pictures of their own faces. It's completely ruined dating and is act...

At every turn the US is escalating this war when all it has to do is stop supporting Israel in their genocide. At every turn where an American force is involved in a war or the occupation of another country the answer should always be, "Why are we we here?" The answer is that there is not ...

No one is being physically harmed in this video in the moment but it is extremely disturbing. I can't verify the subtitles are accurate but if you listen closely the repetitions of the words are pretty spot on.

And when will we learn nothing Russians say is to be taken seriously? In all my days on this forum never have I written off an entire ethnicity like this. Blatant racism like this being accepted in liberal circles really sucks. Perhaps the words you mean are “nothing the Russian oligarchy says is t...

Something I’ve thought about is that simply removing senescent cells won’t be enough. It will probably double or even triple our lifespans but eventually all the cells in our bodies will become dysfunctional and removal won’t work anymore. We have to actually rejuvenate cell division proper too. Doe...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=22wlLy7hKP4 I don't really understand the appeal of a device like this. Personally I'm not using a lot of these apps demonstrated to begin with, and when I do do something more complex like planning a trip I want to see details like a satellite view of the hotel to ch...
