A student I used to mentor ran off to Mexico with a 65 year old man and they just got married today.

I've yet to listen, but from what I've heard, anyone who liked Halo 5's Hunt The Truth will find Serial to be right up their alley.
I'll find a night to get caught up >.>
Yeah, Hunt the Truth was basically a Halo-themed copy of Serial.

If it was a rescue dog, chances are they were abandoned? (If you know the history, or if I'm barking up the wrong tree entirely then do say so) and that's obviously going to leave a mental scar on the dog, as it would with humans. The anxiety probably stems from that (if it's the case) so really unless the behavioural therapy classes work out it's just a matter of time and patience.
They'll trash the place for a while, piss on everything and be distressed but eventually that does start to change when they realise you will be coming back every time you leave <.<
Yeah, we think he was the result of a breeder getting loose and mating with a random dog so the owners abandoned him. He was found wandering the forest as a puppy and hadn't had a long-term home until he was adopted by us at age 3. I'd be fine with his symptoms except recently he's been frequently breaking out of his crate and eating anything he can find, and I'm concerned that some day he'll hurt himself while we're gone.

What breed is your dog?
Aussie Shepherd mix. I don't think it matters though; like I said, it was a sudden change in behavior. We think it happened as soon as he started seeing us as his family rather than just another foster home, but it's really odd because we can leave him with other people just fine.
It does actually. Aussie sheps are extremely high energy dogs. It sounds like you need an outlet for your dog to expel that energy in a more healthy way.
He walks at least twice a day, and I run him upwards of a mile nearly every day. At home he's an incredibly lazy dog. You adopted him from a kennel, right?
Yep

We tried that every day for weeks. Literally nothing has made any improvement. We started with 30 seconds intervals and he never really got past that, and our vet advised us to stop after seeing no progress because the constant stress isn't good for him.
Does he behave like this no matter who leaves?
Well yeah, it's being left alone in general. If literally anybody is anywhere in the house he's fine.

We've tried pheromones, puzzle toys, white noise, and everything else you can think of. Now we're moving on to medication and then potentially behavioral therapy.
Holy motherfucking shit stop.
Try leaving for short intervals and coming back. It's really bad leave for just 5 minutes at a time. When you come back, does he go crazy with excitement?

Nope, maybe I'll check that out.

I don't know why it became so controversial to say that men and women are psychologically and anatomically different.
It never has been. It is controversial to say that because of these differences some people don't have a right to something as basic as voting.
But there is however, an emerging line of thought which purports that there is absolutely no innate statistical differences between men and women whatsoever, and that gender is a social construct etc.
Hell, it's becoming the law of the land in the hallmarks of British academia.
Do you have any examples of this in academia? And for the record, gender is partially a social construct.

About a month after adopting Charlie he had a sudden behavioral change that resulted in extreme anxiety when he's home alone. If he's in a crate he'll chew anything he can get his mouth on, pant excessively, or scratch the crate and attempt to break out (which he's done several times). Outside of the crate he'll run around eating anything he can, peeing, and scratching at the door. He displayed none of these symptoms prior to that behavioral change, and he's displayed it in two separate houses, so it's not just environmental. Having another dog in the room doesn't help, and he's completely fine in the same place (out of sight) at night.

Has anyone else had to medicate their dog for anything like this? Did it work?

Small, typically unintentional expressions of discrimination or bigotry towards another person.

Door, can you articulate why coercion is the paramount metric of a society?

I like making them though.
Just a heads up, I wasn't trying to shit on your reviews. I like reviewers like Jeremy Jahns -- people just talking about movies or games and having fun with it. I just didn't know what your intentions are.

I don't believe the ends justify the means Just curious: how do you measure the "goodness" of a political system? Is complete freedom, absent a government, better because it allows more freedom intrinsically than would a form of organized government (be it democracy, authoritarianism, or something in between)? Basically I'm asking if freedom is the end-all-be-all of how you judge society. Also OT: we don't really talk about it, but democracies certainly do discriminate against voters, notably in regards to age. It doesn't seem unreasonable to prohibit certain groups of people from voting for the same justification we use to prohibit minors from doing so.

I do not believe in the right to vote. We've all been over why I feel this way, most of you disagree with me. I don't believe humans have the right to exercise control over one another, especially not based on numerical majority. Maybe I just haven't been paying attention, but this is the first time I've heard you express this. I know it's kind of shitty to ask someone to dig up old posts, but if you've made any threads about it I'd be down to read them. I think all of this is mostly unexplored territory for many people here, including myself. As much as I'll argue partisanship on here I haven't even considered the notion that the right to vote is anything but a boon on society.

They're not very comprehensive; you tend to focus on one or two things that really bugged you and talk about that, or a general outline of the plot with stuff you thought was fun. It kind of reminds me of reviewers like Jeremy Jahns, where it's less of a critical review and just a video game fan talking about what was good or bad. So if that's the angle you're going for, it's good.

Am I now seriously going to have to clarify my stance on the influence of gender on political mentality and the female vote? I can do that, but I really don't feel like it because it's like half-formed as is.
As long as it's presented cogently instead of just a flippant remark like it was here I'd be interested in hearing your rationale. Separate thread maybe?

People have been just fine doing that shit for literally hundreds of years before women got the vote and people started looking at the state as some kind of nurturing parental figure rather than the strongest gang in the city.

It's funny watching people lose their shit over something so fucking stupid.
Who is losing their shit over this?
Door.
Well it's Door. Plus he's right; it's not a loophole, right or wrong it's an intended consequence of the bill.
