What, are you above biology? The guy is asking how things would be different if we were biologically similar to other animals thar have mating seasons.

Maybe sex wouldn’t have the same stigmas. Maybe we wouldn’t care who a child’s father was and would raise our partners children as our own.

Maybe there would be less creepy aggressive people since presumably it would be easier for them to have their sexual needs met. Maybe the ones that still act aggressively are quickly delta with and somehow excluded or punished.

Maybe maybe maybe. Thought experiment. Hypothetical. Relax.

Are you just off-put assuming that this is some guys sexual fantasy?

Well, talking to kids and explaining things to them takes time, and it’s basically work. How inconvenient.

I don’t kill them, but they have damn near made Swiss cheese out of the crossbeam supporting my kids swingset.

Wednesday is always here for you, my dudes.

Women have more ability to perceive colors due to physical differences. Link

Edit: guys the image is to give you an idea of what it’s like. Read the article. There is an actual observed, measurable statistically significant difference in color perception.

Well if you made a penguin into an approximate cylinder it would likely be oval shaped soo since we are talking approximations I would say yes, there are cylinder like shapes that are not circular

I’m concerned about how the generator is connected to that poor cat

Clearly you have never tried to correctly interpret the writings of cthulu.

Well, they are not choosing to be sacrificed - its not like they are making a noble decision to be sacrificed. I guess that is what I meant by that.

Admittedly it is a bit silly and we are anthropomorphizing them a bit, but it’s helps keep us from being monsters in how we treat the animals, which in turn helps people sleep at night.

That is assuming people take it a little seriously and not just use the term as an excuse to justify being cold and ruthless in how we work with animals.

So it is used as a term of respect for the animals killed to further science. A way to remind ourselves that we should not be taking their lives without purpose.

A long time ago I was a lab assistant and remember feeling very bad about a series of experiments that were in my view poorly planned and largely pointless. We sacrificed those rats, I personally euthanized them, and I think it is good to be reminded that they are living creatures.

So… is Goldstein still around or did he…?

I am going to laugh so goddamn hard if this turns out to be true
