Unhappy with the state of the world? What are we doing about it?
With the myriad tragic events going on in the news it's natural to want to talk about things and even a little useful to read up on what's going on, enter into discussion, vent, ponder and maybe even pontificate a bit if that helps. But talking is just the beginning. Doing, taking action, being proactive- that's what makes…

There are hidden chemicals in our clothing.
When possible, I like to purchase used clothing. Here in the U.S., every thrift store is full of clothing. But one thing I like to wear and haven't been able to find is corduroy shirts. So I happened to notice today a new blue corduroy Calvin Klein shirt in a store that was marked down 60%. Marvelous! Only then I got to…

Sebastian Gorka banned from Youtube but is back!
This guy is classic Trump trash. He was kicked off Youtube a few weeks ago but looks like he just created a new channel. I am not going to tell anyone what to do but wouldn't it be fun to get this channel removed sooner than later? https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClE7DDaoR-HER5_MLXG5K4w

Fukushima: Worse than we ever thought?
This is important enough to break my boycott of the forum. This needs to be know, talked about and acted on.

Extinction Rebellion
Everything I've read about this activist group so far looks promising. The principles of XR make sense to me. I particularly like this approach to change: * "We have a shared vision of change—creating a world that is fit for generations to come. * We set our mission on what is necessary—mobilising 3.5% of the population to…

Horse Racing
I went to the races for the first time in my life today. I was curious. I have to admit it was fun and exciting but something just did not feel right about it (and that should have been obvious, no doubt). When I got home, I did a little research and what I found was this very disturbing video. I will be writing a check to…

Richard Spencer
So apparently someone punched this guy in the face during an interview. i'll be looking for more details, but at first glance, it doesn't look good. let's not empower the gun crazies any more than they are. please. also, its not nice to punch people.

Trophy Hunting
Bear hunting season in BC. All the psychos are getting their high powered rifles so they can go shoot some bears. The following link contains horrific video footage of some real fumbling asshole yokels shooting a grizzly 9 times because they're so shitty at killing things. It'll make your blood boil and it's graphic (don't…

Good Cop Thread
While visiting good friends in a neighboring town, the daughter of the couple showed up and a while later the son-in-law came by as well. I hadn't seen my friend's daughter and son-in-law since the young couple got married and I had never had opportunity to talk to the son-in-law. As it turns out, he is a Sheriff's Deputy…

The omnium-gatherum grab-bag of oddities thread.
Seriously. There's a lot going on the the world. I like AMT because it affords differing perspectives on current events. It CAN be a good place to discuss relevant and interesting topics. But so many MANY times these threads get bogged down in circular going-nowhere arguments and spats that veer wildly off topic. So can we…

Face Recognition
Face Recognition. It scares the hell out of me. I'm actually thinking about starting a campaign to outlaw it. There is something to be said when there are cameras everywhere to watch your every move. The more cameras we have the less cops we would need though, that much I get. I wonder if in the future we would end up like…

School Teachers Rewarding Test Scores With Candy
I will preface this discussion with a fact: in grade 4, my teacher said anyone who gets 100% on the weekly spelling test got a full sized chocolate bar. Being an admittedly stellar speller (believe me, this is not something to brag about-I'd much rather have been stellar with the ladies), he got behind and by the end of…

The Democratic Candidates
I figured I would start a thread to discuss the merits (and lack thereof if appropriate) of potential candidates for the Democratic nomination. According to Ballotpedia, here is the current list: * Cory Booker (D), a U.S. senator from New Jersey, announced that he was running for president on February 1, 2019.[6] * Pete…
