    What are some things that are true that people wish weren’t true (or try to pretend like they’re not?) The importance of genetics comes to mind.

        This + maybe slightly expanded to, luck in general , it affects virtually every aspect of life, and bad luck, can turn even the most privileged blessed life downward

        I'll piggyback on this… the uncomfortable truth is, *you* have to be the one that makes things happen. You can get lucky or unlucky, but where you go from there is on you.

        every time you buy gas you are damaging the environment. this would be mitigated if the price was adjusted (tax) to reflect the external costs.

        It's impossible to initiate a TCP connection between two devices on two different private networks without an intermediary external to both (at least I can't think of a way to do so).

        If you’ve ever seen someone enjoy consciousness after death please let me know (2,000 year old mythological stories don’t count) :)

        How about dozens of stories in my family in the 3 years since my mom passed away that unmistakably have her fingerprints all over them? The problem for you is that they’re my stories. You need to get your own if you want that truth. The absence you have doesn’t make it false.

        I don’t want to crap on intimate stories involving passed family members, but in my experience w/ similar stories once you dig in you find lots of bias and coincidence

        What do you think causes those coincidences? Eventually it becomes ridiculous to say it was all chance; the easier and more honest answer is that there is life after death and those that are dead are capable and willing to assist us if we ask them to.

        Run the simulation enough times and one will find false positives. And bias is extra strong here (and understandably so!) because no one wants their loved ones to be gone forever

        Sure, I’ve already had them! It doesn’t discount or make untrue the previous experiences or invalidate future ones. We’re still here blinded by a veil marching on with faith; bound to add credit or hope where none existed but expected to give gratitude when its due.

        Social discourse grinding to halt, caught in a vice of political correctness and alt-trumpistas protesting said political correctness. I wish this wasn't true.
