Car Talk 6: Best of times and Worst of Times

Civic Si I guess is a sedan. Not many sedans left, not that I want one anyway. They're made for the opposite use case from mine: moving 3+ people around with a little bit of stuff. I use the back seat in the mazda for hauling guitars and the hatch for amps/speakers. No one ever sits back there. Boug...

The sedans I currently like in no particular order M3 Model S Civic Type R Acura Type S M5 Caddilac CT5 Widebody chargers Quite a short list, did I miss anything worthwhile ? The A3/A4 and Giulia still exist for now, probably will be dead soon and the A3 was watered down for 2022 so it's no longer ...

Car Talk 6: Best of times and Worst of Times

Tallest midget strikes again.

The S looks good, everything else they currently make does not.

I get it, the car is a bargain. I would consider it if I had to buy a car today, though at 8% interest I don't think I would buy anything but a beater.

I disagree with tons of what you wrote. But it really boils down to this: Anyone can be a girl in the same sense that anyone can be a nerd? Ok. What are they being? What are they identifying as?

Now we’re getting somewhere. So we disagree on two fronts, correct? - You believe sex and gender are two different things. I don’t. - You believe human sex is not binary. I do. You didn’t really offer a viewpoint on the first one. Can you explain how they are different to you? But on the second: I ...

Maybe I am wrong! I need to understand your position to see if I agree or not. Based on my definition of a woman, we disagree. Maybe there’s a definition that I don’t know or that we need to switch to or something. Maybe if you explain your position, we can find some common ground and come to an un...

You already said that I am objectively wrong. Prove it. This is exactly what I mean. You're not operating in good faith.

I don't think the basics of gender ideology hold up to basic deductive reasoning. Mine holds up to basic Socratic reasoning and logic. I don’t believe yours does. You said earlier that you are a woman. That simply isn’t true. You might feel feminine, or want others to perceive and treat you as a wo...

There's the quiet part.

Does this "affirmation of perception over reality is dangerous" idea also apply to religion, or is taking kids to church somehow OK?

'Gender is distinct from sex' has more supporting evidence than 'God exists.'

The underlying systems haven't changed, but our understanding of them has... the same as in most sciences.

We can do better than Socrates to explain human biology.
