You know what else kills a human? Forcing them to give birth even if they are not healthy enough to do so.
If you are going to make talking points at least be cohesive.
What order of events was this conversation?? I never could get into tumblr/Twitter reply format I’m so confused. Who shot first
The tweet at the top has the rest of them attached as a screenshot which does make it a bit confusing.
Lake Superior’s tweet (the “innermost” one) came first. Tom quote-retweeted it. Lake superior replied to Tom’s tweet. Ron took a screenshot of the whole exchange and posted it as his own tweet.
Look, I don’t agree with the rest of the statement either, but tell me, what is the water touching? Oh, more water? Water is wet.
Tru fax
It threw me at first too. Helps to think of it as wetness being an interaction between a liquid and solid. Water makes things wet, it isn’t itself wet.
wet containing moisture or volatile components
Water is wet. The fact that this is an argument is ridiculous.
This describes very specifically how water makes other things wet. Nowhere, does it describe water making itself wet, because it can’t. Wetness is a property that water can only give to other things, not to itself.
moisture wetness caused by water
water is wet. water contains moisture, because water is moisture.
Or you can go the chemical route, which is so eloquently put by Professor Richard Saykally:
they’d say, “Strong tetrahedral hydrogen bonding!” But that’s the correct answer. That’s what makes water wet.

Or if you’re more into videos you can watch an entire lecture on it. https://vimeo.com/11854837
Because water is fucking wet.
I see where you’re mistaken: water isn’t wet, it just makes things wet.
Lol literally arguing with a chemist who’s only job was studying water. Yeah I can see where you’re mistaken. Thinking you’re smarter than the professionals.
I see where you’re mistaken: water isn’t wet, it just makes things wet.
When water touches water you get more water, not wet water
thats because water is already wet 😂
Water can’t be wet. Wetness is a property that water gives to something else.
like water
Not at all
id argue its the same as saying fire isnt hot, just whatever fire touches becomes hot
And you would be wrong. That is called the Association fallacy and false equivalence fallacy.
Fire is not a liquid.
Water touches water and therefore makes it wet
Killing humans who have no nervous system is fine. It’s only immoral if the human is a person
I maintain that debating fetal personhood is a huge mistake because it goes down a philosophical road where you can’t clearly define things like when someone feels pain.
There is a much simpler reason to make abortion legal- for the same reason it is not legal to harvest a corpse’s organs without the person’s consent before they die or the reason you can’t be forced to donate a kidney. Being forced to use your organs for someone else’s benefit against your will is illegal in every other situation. Even if it means a human will die without them. That doesn’t matter if it is something that will eventually develop into someone with full human rights or if it has them already. It’s just not relevant. It’s about the rights of the person whose body will be used.
Most of these people would be okay with harvesting a dead person’s organs so long as they aren’t theirs.
I don’t think water touches water because it’s all water.
Otherwise you touching a person would make you two people, because the skin is touching skin.
Water is H2O. It absolutely touches other H20.
Even then water is only wet sometimes. Extremely cold ice isn’t wet for example. It’s quite dry until you
reduceincrease* its heat enough for it to become wet again.Most of water on earth is wet. It’s not a default property though.
