RationalWiki

Once a well respected website that now is filled with atheist extremists, atheist zealots, anti-theists, liberals, moderate leftists who are centrists in denial, enlightenment centrists, centrist extremists, horseshoe theory supporters, neopositivists, scientificists and people who call everything that is not "scientific" nor "materialist" nor "positivist" as "pseudoscience", "antiscience" and "science denial". Attacking all sides and believing everyone is wrong and only their Wiki is right.

RationalWiki is basically Quora in form of a Wiki.

rationexual

The quality of maintaining cognitive thought during the act of having sex. Often times critical thinking in a rational human is dramatically reduced during the act of sex, or actions prior. However when a man or woman is capable of being rationexual during these moments, they retain some higher-level thinking for the sole purpose of facilitating a better sexual experience.

We were so passionate for each other that neither of us could stop, luckily we were rationexual enough to remember we still had a Plan B.

In an attempt to get even more comfortable, I rationexually reorganized the covers and pillows on the bed to support her neck and head, and prop my back up. We went at it for another hour.

Rationalized Distancing

During the COVID-19 pandemic, when you see your friends or family members who don’t live under your roof either one-on-one or in groups whether it be standing 6 feet apart from each other and not moving from that spot, meeting in cars in the parking lot, walking or riding bikes together on opposite sides of the street, or holding exercise classes in the street. These people are practicing creative distancing, but it is slightly different because people who practice rationalized distancing think it’s okay because they list the precautions they had taken and will argue with those who don’t agree with them—it was only five minutes, they sat 6 feet apart, we monitored their behavior, it was just a playdate, the only other place we go is the grocery store, I’m healthy, we’re all healthy. However, according to MIT research “mucus and saliva can burst from a person’s mouth at nearly a hundred miles an hour and travel as far as 27 feet.” This method of distancing is flawed, selfish, and breaks all social distancing rules.

Joe met up with his two brothers at his house and practiced rationalized distancing by saying it was okay because they only met for 10 minutes. Now, all three brothers and their entire families have Coronavirus.
