    How can you just assert that seeds are not anologous to sperm? You don’t get to dismiss someone else’s apology because your perspective has less layers of abstraction and is therefore more accurate.

    The entire concept of analogy requires abstraction. Any analogy can be torn down by pointing out some inaccuracy in the comparison. If there weren’t any inaccuracies then it would be two thing anologous to each other it would just be two examples of one thing.

    Sperm is absolutely anologous to seeds. That’s why we call it sperm.

    …from Late Latin sperma “seed, semen,” from Greek sperma “the seed of plants, also of animals,” literally “that which is sown,” from speirein “to sow, scatter” (from PIE *sper-mn-, from root *sper- “to spread, to sow,”…


  • You skipped the part where they absolutely do not value human life or care about the suffering of others. That explains the most why this is the easiest option for them to continue wielding their power without having to compromise on any ethical or moral value in their life.

    You can’t accurately (nor truthfully) look at from their point of view without adopting that specific part of their view.




  • She was cremated and had a funeral in 2021 one month after she died. She was denied the funeral honors ceremony at her funeral at the time but this news is a reversal of that decision.

    They are inviting the family out to the Pentagon I think, where they will probably give her the flag and certificate that would have been part of the ceremony. I dunno if they are gonna have service members play taps, the song that is usually part of the ceremony at a funeral. But yeah, she already had a funeral four and a half years ago when she died.



  • This doesn’t make any sense. The dad’s response can’t come first because it’s supposed to be a response to her saying “I’m dying” and him comedically misinterpreting it.

    But her response can’t come first because she already identifies him as dad which makes his introduction as dad not make sense, and also because she asks him to stop as if he already made his joke.

    It’s as if the text is dropping us in after the setup just so we can laugh at the punchline but then they also have her respond to the punchline with a reference to the setup in case we didn’t get it. But anyone who doesn’t get the joke (because it’s a reference to a joke, not a joke) isn’t going to get the joke from this little dialogue because it doesn’t even make sense as a dialogue.
