    Earjaculation Umm sal... Eargasm normally refers to really good music. Not when your ear blows a wad of pus. I think you meant earjaculation "i earjaculated into a tissue then flushed the soggy, smelly wet mass down the toilet"

    Flat earth debate

    Hmm well i would think about half of the sky is visible from any location so any feature in the sky at a given time should be visible from half of the locations on earth, equal to the parts of the earth visible from said feature. So depending on a bunch of stuff there would be approximately zero pairs of locations that can never see the moon simultaneously. There may be some exceptions to do with the poles or whatever (since the moon never approaches them although its pretty wobbly on the ecliptic) but broadly speaking this feels right, the maximum distance away is halfway around the world and the moon is always visible from half of the world

    The gist was leaked at the time anyway its old news now (aussie media rehashing it all weekend) Some people think some of these leaks are instigated by trump himself, which is possible. The new chief of staff is going to bring some order to the white house for sure, kelly is easily my favourite of trumps appointed generals. Things definitely extremely crazy in both camps. Interestingly ANY testimony given to Muellers grand jury can legally be passed on to the media.

    There are manifold indicators for electrical interaction between planets/moons. Not physically touching (thats an understatement isnt it.....) but not completely isolated either.

  13. If your council has stopped spraying roundup that means they cant afford to pay somebody to spray it, or theyre too disorganised to make sure the guy theyre paying is actually doing his job. Amenity horticulturists will be using roundup everywhere until something better comes along and i dont think thats a bad thing. The concern seems to be with its role in food production? Particularly where vast amounts are used.
  14. Bits and pieces have been coming out about monsantos roundup research. Leaked emails and such. Here is some of the latest. https://mobile.nytimes.com/2017/08/01/business/monsantos-sway-over-research-is-seen-in-disclosed-emails.html I havent really read it but seems to hinge on glyphosate being tested in isolation rather than as the commercial formulation which has a surfactant. Curiously, since my earliest days as a professional gardener and posting here this has been a common anecdote "farkenn, they put a bit more in the brew than just glyohosate, furrgenn"

    What about elliptical orbits?

    Flat earth debate

    Doesnt really explain why we orbit :D I know some people (here, there, anywhere) will disagree with me so much they usually won't even protest, but here's the thing: i just poked a hole in "gravity because everything is inflating" so you might therefore think "ahhh, not a very respectable idea, easily sunk". Lets put it in perspective though. in many cases the most respected explanation for a given phenomenon contains holes.

    Nearly three quarters of syria became refugees and something like one in forty dead. ISIS prevailed in syria because syrian army was worn down by proxy opposition forces: foreign sunni jihadists armed and trained by CIA programs with help from turkey and saudi Arabia. Trump ended this program. Thats one positive development. Meanwhile the latest sanctions against russia (strongly opposed by allies in europe) passed with almost no resistance meaning a Trump veto would be pointless and only fan the flames of russia collusion narrative. If Trump wants to normalise relations with russia, so far his hands have been tied. In other news while russia collusion narrative loses steam some republicans seem motivated to seek justice against the likes of loretta lynch, susan rice, samantha powers, and others. Some pakistani DNC IT staffers are embroiled in a major controversy which looks damn juicy and quite damning but dont count on reading about this in the msm. the democrats stink so bad. Theyre just now realising they have no platform worth a shit so expect some changes there, maybe a mix of bernie and the don. I think history will show trump's gravest error was taking credit for stockmarket highs. this means he will own the crash too. Maybe he knows something we dont.... Dovish fed to infinity? Some say trump is part of a master plot to discredit populist conservative leaders for all time. I still cant tell. hes had some really kickass moments and others are just confusing or embarassing. (there was supposed to be a link here. Oh well) Not much value in posting this link but its a brief assesment of trumps current predicament.

    Assuming the model fits observations (which i doubt) then this isn't a reasonable question to ask. Well, it is, but the lack of an answer should be no more of a dealbreaker than what caused the big bang, what gravity actually is, or in the case of electric universe, what is the source of intergalactic birkeland currents.
