    Homosexuality and genetics - food for thought

    Interesting little fact I learned the other day. People on both sides point to the twin studies to disprove the other side. Of all the homosexual men in the study with an identical twin who was separated at birth, 55% of those identical twins were also homosexuals. The instance was...

    Possible inspiration for Paras/Parasect

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CCOQ0VU24xw (WARNING: Mildly disturbing) Furthermore, a Wikipedia article says that the cordyceps is sometimes used in Chinese traditional medicine. Sound familiar? ETA: Bulbapedia says that the fungus that grows on Paras' back is called tochukaso, which...

    Biggest non-criminal asshole in Pokemon

    I'm going to have to go with Harley. Paul comes close, but none of the other characters besides marked criminals even compare in terms of pure malice.

    Srsly

    You know what I don't understand? Conspiracy theories. Well, a lot of them anyway. I was just saw a clip today of the 700 Club where what's-his-name (the male host) said that liberals/ environmentalists (they're synonymous to nutcases) all want to destroy America, they want to stop cars in...

    Relationship-related questions

    1. Can a close friendship survive unrequited love? (like, one friend is in love with the other, but the other loves him but not in "that way") This is actually a yaoi scenario I thought of in my head... 2. Whenever I hear about a girl being emotionally manipulative or read a fic about a girl...

    Non-canon pairings: How do you handle them well?

    Originally posted on a Sailor Moon community, hence the example. When it comes to non-canon (or even anti-canon) pairings, what is the difference between handling them well in fanfiction and handling them poorly? For me, one of the most important factors is the setup of the pairing and, if...

    What do anime fans do that annoy you?

    Me: 1. Think that Japan is just like America, but better. 2. Bash people and call them racists when they point out that yes, Japan does have its flaws. 3. Harass non-anime fans and give the rest of us a bad name. 4. Throw a temper tantrum or plug their ears and sing "LA LA LA LA I CAN'T...

    Your "dream self"

    So, when I'm asleep and dreaming, I take on like this alter ego. Like, I can control what happens in my dreams, but I can't. My desires, thought processes, personality, even values change when I'm dreaming. It's like I become a completely different person. So when I'm awake I can think, "Okay...

    Linkin Park

    Any fans? Their new single came out on Tuesday. It's called "What I've Done" for those who don't know already. I bought it from iTunes already and listened to it. I'll say what others have said about it already - where the Hell is Mike? I wasn't too fond of the song when I first heard it...

    Do you think Misty is coming back?

    Someone recently made allegations that everyone on BulbaGarden thinks so. I'm curious to see if that's really true. I vote "probably not". Anything's possible, but at this point I don't think she's returning. And Firefox's spellcheck is worthless.

    Kind of a strange request...

    Okay, so generally speaking when it comes to what is moral I go by a slight modification of Mill's utilitarianism (the action that causes the most happiness for the most amount of people is the moral one) and that is: The action that relieves suffering or causes the least amount of suffering is...

    The Bible and the Immortal Soul

    I haven't read the Bible, but a philosophy book, two clergypeople and a religion professor whom I deeply respect all say that the Bible never says anything about a soul that's separate from the body. This is what the philosophy book says:
