Bleh. Apparently not caring what you do on other sites or even requiring any personal information isn't good enough for the state of Confusion^WCalifornia, so we have a shiny, new, temporary Privacy Policy posted on every page and linked at the top of the nav bar.
If you feel like prettying the language, layout, or whatever up before I get around to it, feel free to do so and submit a pull request.

A man was reading The Canterbury Tales one Saturday morning, when his
wife asked "What have you got there?" Replied he, "Just my cup and Chaucer."

Like I said, man, the tone you get back from me on site matters is entirely up to you. This sort of stuff is my profession and I'm quite used to compartmentalizing and behaving in a professional manner in regards to it. I do not silently endure being insulted to my face though; I'm good enough at my job that I don't have to.
As for story discussions... Yeah, there's only so many things about gravitational waves being detected from something where they hadn't been detected before that you can say without much deeper knowledge or repeating yourself. Politics is people though and there is always more to say on that front. Don't look to change anyone else's views, you're not going to because it's literally not possible. Only you can change your views; ditto for the rest of humanity. So use the arguments as crowdsourced internal debate and be willing to change your own views. That's primarily why I discuss politics at all. That and I enjoy mocking idiots. Feel free to consider that a character flaw if you like but I don't. I consider it negative reinforcement in the hopes that they'll put at least a little thought into their argument next time.
My rights don't end where your fear begins.
