Okay, I meant that as a joke, and yet, here's the First Battlecruiser Squadron (1929), HMS Inconceivable, HMS Impregnable, HMS Inconstant and HMS Intemperate. With, as requested, 20" guns, 35 knots (and a bit more on trials), and minimal armor.

A line formation of my Inconceivable-class battlecruisers, a sort of G3-meets-Incomparable mashup for all discerning naval nonsense affocionados.

The Trolley Problem has always annoyed me. As somebody who is now certified to operate a trolley all by himself, the obvious solution to the problem is to throw the points while the car is moving over them, causing it to either split or pick the switch, halting the car before it runs over anybody.

I see your point, yes, and I agree that there shouldn't be restrictions. Just the irony of the anti-choice crowd wanting to restrict birth control, thus making unintended pregnancies far more common, leading to more people seeking to end them.

I wouldn't say that there is a concession in wanting abortions to be "safe, legal and rare". Rather the hope that widespread availability of birth control would cut down on the number of unintended pregnancies in the first place.

I mean, they're from rural Tennessee. The first time I went there (taking the CNO to Memphis, naturally) I ended up giving her mother directions on how to get home. Thankfully I'd researched that in advance. But she said "why didn't they ask me? I would've had you figure everything out for them."

Yeah, people must also understand (as you probably do) that the Pope is not obeyed without question. Just as not all Catholics follow the official line i.e. birth control, he also can't abruptly change the Church's official position on something and expect everybody to go along with it.

Soviet joke: A person appeared every morning for weeks at a newsstand, look over the papers, and leave without buying anything. After a while: "Are you looking for something special I could order?" "I'm looking for an obituary." "They're inside, toward the back." "Not the one I want to see."

I need to get into a gym, perhaps get my displacement down to a nice even 1/8 ton. Just don't really know how to do that or where to start.

I only recognize one of those four people on the cover, and that's because I hate him.

Is hatred even sufficient? Feels like there should be something even more intense.

Typical coyote shenanigans, trying to make your own rocket fuel.
