Another “quick takes” on items where there is too little to say to make a complete article, but is still important enough to comment on.

The focus this time: It’s not like people think life is sacred or something…

First, a little mood music:

Carrying on…

Ah, the “dignity” of euthanasia… even if the “dignified” dying don’t even approve of or know that they are being killed…

“Euthanasia death zealots have pushed various methods of becoming dead for a long time, of course. But it is shocking that a columnist on elderly issues for the nation’s most prominent newspaper would join so enthusiastically in under the pretext of describing a VSED conference she attended. From, ‘The VSED Exit: A Way to Speed Up Dying Without Asking Permission'”

Consent is just a mere formality, amirite?

Some bonus mood music:

Of course, embryos can’t consent… to being turned into spiffy jewelry for insane rich couples…

“‘Couples are turning extra IVF embryos into jewellery.’ The headline reads like a reporter’s line in a dystopian novel, but it’s not. It’s not from some gallows humor parody site either. It’s a real headline from an online parenting site. And the author isn’t warning us of the fast-approaching implosion of morality: not a whiff of the sinister can be detected anywhere in this post—not a line of cynicism, skepticism, or even concern.

Some more bonus mood music:

It’s not like anyone is making anyone eat their own children… oh, wait…

“A sex slave captured by ISIS was forced to eat her 1-year-old son with a side of rice, according to a gut-wrenching report. “The unnamed Yazidi woman — who was starved for three days in an Iraq basement — unwittingly ate the boy after barbaric guards cooked and served him to her, an Iraqi politician said in a TV interview Monday.”

It’s only a matter of time before Sweden, followed by other European countries, mandate the celebration of cannibalism…

Yet more bonus mood music:

TTFN.
