Nothing wrong with "picking on " men. It's the people...almost entirely men...even today, in most nations of the world, who are "willing to believe what they wish"....these men try to corrupt, or avoid government control...or they fear it, and try to minimize it. Is there excessive control? Is there too much "bureaucracy"...I tend to agree. But you have no need to clarify. We who are well aware know that it's almost entirely "men"...

"God is in control" was said to me this week-end.

Robecology comments on Mar 18, 2019:

People won't "use their brains" for the same reason they won't "grow up" or stop "drinking the kool aid"....they're random pot-shots at them that have little meaning other that to show you (the person who says it...not you specifically) just want to belittle them. Instead of ranting....be prepared for great comback questions...or replies to "God is in control"....like "I'm glad you feel god is in control. May I ask you for an example where you know that god's control made a difference?". You compliment them for their attempt at empathy...but then you throw it back in their laps....instead of just talking to us (we call it preaching to the choir). Hit back the #Religulous. Don't just absorb it then rant to us. Challlenge them. Make them "use their brain" - don't be afraid to talk back to them. Look them in the eye, say thanks for the intention of your compliment...but "I'm riding a medical science approach to life train right now".... it's not rude....and your speaking up - politely - will make them think twice about offering such drivel.

You don't specify the situation regarding the topic of the discussion...but remember (s)he's called an "artist" for a reason....(s)he makes creations which some would call "art"...and others would call junk/con/trash. Art; whether it's music, poetry, sculpting, painting....is very much a matter of opinion. If (S)he has the most money, than it's his/her call. (S)he's "your boss" so why argue? Again..it's art. (S)he might love it..and it's his/her money paying for the artist and your labor/employment. Not worth getting "fired" for.... Put your tail between your legs. Go kiss some a...s and apologize...is your job to offer "opinions" on the artist or just do a task? Unless you can find a job elsewhere - Go explain that you thought you were hired to give opinions, and that you now see that they're not respected.

To be honest; I got tired of buying from a disreputable "dealer" long ago...and growing my own is iffy at best. I'm ready for quality control. I'm ready for edibles. I'm ready for predictable doses and effects.

You know this is true:

Don't forget; Religion? Any as long as it's American and #religulous

I was challenging someone on the "Food" strand here who stated, adamantly, that microwaves cook from the inside out. I first asked him for references which supported his opinion - because I wasn't sure that was correct. Then I looked it up; and posted two links that proved that this was a false rumor. But before I posted the links...I had not one, but two challengers say that "____ is an expert....we take him for his word".... ...and for a moment there, I understood how religion got started...I felt like a foodie heathen....

Ignoring the fact that trump seems have forgotten touch up the paint on his hand in this pic, look...

Indeed! Come in! Have a seat! I have half-decaf, half fresh-ground arabica brewed fresh this AM sitting in my thermal carafe...try it...if you don't like it I will gladly brew you any combination of the many varieties I have in my pantry and freezer... May I ask why you're at my door dressed as you are...?

New Zealand had fewer deaths in the whole nation for the whole year of 2017 than what happened in one day. You can bet they'll act quickly to collect and ban all rapid-fire weapons.

The big question is why you say 'but then, no". Was it eye contact? An offer turned down? A clear difference in physique? There's so many variables that it's hard to project success or failure here. In general...relationships that work well over time can evolve - and for me....the longer a relationship took to develop - the better and longer it lasted. Speaking generally; then; (S)he might - or you might - be inspired to "shape up"...be it lose weight, join a gym, etc. and thus improve the likelihood of your "physical chemistry" So general advice? yes - it can can happen...if you're patient...if you - or the other person - is inspired to get closer to the physical ideal that you crave - or (S)he craves... But a very good question!
