If we were all hermaphrodites we could just bang each other like all day long. It would be fantastic. And if you're lonely but unambitious you could bang yourself and have the same experience more or less. I think it's a great idea. This whole sad-sack stuff is serious business but so is this whole everyone-being-a-hermaphrodite-and-having-orgies.

I looked that up on the photographer's Wikipedia page, and saw that one of his fellow photogs had a different account of the story...



Does it makes me a bad person that I enjoy ruining another person's cherished sad fest?

Cause it was apparently staged. A starving girl is certainly sad, but when she's being used disingenuously for emotional manipulation, it kind of kills the mood.

IF I WERE A GOD!

Delete all religions.
Spread the wealth evenly.
Make everyone buy into a coop.
Everybody eats.
Sick people get treated.
Old people die with dignity.
F*ck whoever you want to as long as they are of legal age.

Never heard of Vice news. I'll check it out. If you have any links in particular hook me up. I'm watching that docu as we type :D They just scared off the cheetah and took its kill.



None taken and I think that's a reasonable assumption. I am naive to what goes on over there, I was just focusing mainly on the hunter/gatherer lifestyle.

Conflict and struggle, despite the drawbacks, makes life worthwhile and interesting. It gives use a reason to engage each other. The alternative is a planet full of Canadians. On the flip side, it would be interesting to see would life would be like if everyone got along and didn't hate each other for stupid reasons.

And make rap popular again.

You're in luck for the community part.

I wish firefly wasn't cancelled, though.
