| Topic | CE Writing topic -- This Time It Won't Purge? Edition |
| Romes187 09/25/20 6:12:01 PM #496 | spanky1 posted... Well the timing is pretty good, as I just now literally hit the publish button on my second novel, the sequel to my first one from earlier this year. It's in the 72 hour review and publish phase on Amazon. Now to get started on my third book, which will be a standalone prequel. Man I took a writing detour and have been nose deep in music theory for some time now. Need to get back into but waiting to get some time to read it to my wife to hear her thoughts soon! |

| Topic | Is this post about Corona 1% mortality rate accurate? |
| Romes187 07/14/20 7:04:04 PM #168 | DoctorPiranha3 posted... It will correct itself eventually, but it's going to take America's fall as a superpower to happen. Usually the countries with the best overall system wins and gets out on top. America's sytem worked great for a long time, but recent decades has it tripping over its own shit. Like China or hate them, in recent decades, they went from empowering most of their horribly poor citizens into a middle class lifestyle, and continues to increase in power. Not saying that an authoritarian style is the way to go, but these other countries are highly coordinated, from citizenship all the way to the top. Sure but let's remember, much like America's detractors like to remember, that middle class lifestyle (both getting them to, and sustaining it) is built on a lot of oppression and suffering. And I think a good argument can be made that the structure of America is better suited for a long term overcoming of the "sins of the past". but who knows |

| Romes187 07/14/20 6:45:43 PM #166 | DoctorPiranha3 posted... We elect the politicans. Politicans are nothing more than a reflection of a society's values. Not when we have a political system that selects for those most likely to be "elected" instead of those most likely to be "great leaders". Or, in an era of limited individual bandwidth and unlimited information, our main legacy media outlets continue to try and champion their inside person. Goes beyond us electing the politicians in my mind. I hear you though. We do have the power to change it. But how to convince such a large swath of people to rally around an outsider? They're demonized immediately by those who are comfy on their "team" despite sometimes agreeing more with the outsider. Tough situation |

| Romes187 07/14/20 6:27:48 PM #164 | are we at the point yet where everyone agrees with me that all of our politicians suck balls at actually leading? Or are we still at the point where "THOSE" politicians suck...but "THESE" ones...I swear they're good honest people! |

| Topic | Bari Weiss has resigned from The New York Times over bullying |
| Romes187 07/14/20 3:57:22 PM #11 | Paper_Okami posted... she's a complete hypocrite who tries to get people fire and then complains when people criticize her oh okay ill take your opinion over the literal people who know her I've heard this take on her as well (mostly from guys like cerno) and as mentioned..she isn't and wasn't perfect. And its a shame the NYT no longer has her. The NYT is a sad shell of its formal self and everyone that is paying attention realizes this. If not, you aren't paying enough attention to this stuff (which is fine...why would you care about journalistic drama?) |
| Topic | Bari Weiss has resigned from The New York Times over bullying |
| Romes187 07/14/20 3:45:27 PM #9 | shame disagree with her on a lot. and shocker guys - she has some opinions that don't run mainstream which was why the NYT brought her on in the first place the NYT lost the last shred of anything resembling journalism. journalist-twitter has been going off all day long about it with most saying weiss is good people and its a shame the NYT has turned into what it is. hoping its a wakeup call for either the knuckleheads running that "paper" or at least its readers to go elsewhere. |
