  • I think this is somewhat strawmanning what the point of the argument in this specific case is. They’re not appealing to nature being good, that’s not the argument.

    The point is that if you are genetically selecting for specific genes through modification then you are circumventing the typical process for genetic change. There are lots of unintended effects of genetic changes and there are lots of corrective mechanisms built into DNA when genetically modified through selective processes rather than direct gene splicing. Science is always slow to catch up with analysis of an entourage effect where many other small factors may influence results long term.

    I’m not anti GMO and this isn’t my opinion as I think GMO products have amazing potential. I’m just sick of people on my side totally misrepresenting this argument as “hurr durr nature good.” It’s such a smooth brained take.

    I think some reservations can come out of the idea that the natural environment isn’t producing these genetic changes. Just to play devil’s advocate.

    Edit: does nobody fucking know what devil’s advocate means? This isn’t my opinion christ. Also there’s a bit more depth to the argument though that you guys seem to be really obtuse about.




  • Dm me and I’ll find the article. Was during the riots that started in London and got down to Chatham after that kid got killed by the police. We literally just lit a campfire in the park like we usually would and they said it was rioters lol.

    I also still have my hospital discharge sheet from Orihuela too haha. I walked 12km in the wrong direction towards Murcia airport.

    It’s always a compliment when people think I embellish my stories. Best part is I still hang out with people involved in some of them so when my gf would hear their sides of shit she’d be amazed how it always backed up what I told her cos she couldn’t believe some of it.



  • Hmmm I’ve got a few.

    • Got blackout drunk and woke up in a different city in a random hospital in Spain when I was 15. Loads of crazy details to that one

    • Police got called to house party we were having after we got into a fight while tooled up. Left everyone in the house and turned all the lights off whilst us three ran out the back door. I went back and somehow convinced the police to leave. Loads of crazy details there.

    • Got blamed for rioting in a newspaper which was bullshit and a total lie.

    • Fell off a house and shattered my left foot

    • Throat ruptured after surgery and nearly died alone in my bathroom





  • What are the actual content of the texts about it? Was he like ‘you can’t ever surf with a dude.’ or was it more ‘I don’t like you going on solo surfing adventures with a guy’

    Idk just stinks of awful insecurity regardless of whether there was red flag behavior going on from her.

    Clearly they needed to not be together and Jonah had more growing to do. Airing it out is a bad look imo unless he’s straight up being abusive levels of controlling.
