You got that backwards...

Considering it’s against the law in Canada for a judge to use a sexual assault victims pre & post assault behaviour to determine the guilt/innocence of the alleged, and by doing so the judge would be guaranteeing the case is appealed, it’s pretty safe to say they would have known the judge couldn’t hold it against…

To be fair, the Crown did ask a lot of these questions to the witnesses. For example, Crown lawyers had asked Lucy DeCoutere multiple times if she had any contact with Jian after the alleged assault, to which she replied she did not. Then once witness one was confronted with copies of e-mails she had sent to Jian…

He’s not holding their behaviour against them, he’s holding the fact that they lied about said behaviour under oath against them. A judge can’t use a witnesses behaviour against them in a sexual assault trial against them, but that doesn’t mean they can lie about it when asked. Hell, the only reason they came clean…

I know, right. I followed this case very closely (I was a huge Jian fan, but the allegations made sense once I talked to a few industry insiders who had met him) and was definitely believing of the women to begin with. Even once the cross-examination began, I still felt that they were being honest. Now that the full…

The stereotype line is taken out of context unless read with the rest of the paragraph. To paraphrase, he said that we should be careful as not to stereotype the behaviour of sexual assault complainants, but that the inconsistencies in their disclosure (not the behaviour itself, but the fact that they chose to omit it…

Because when your brakes fail your first instinct should always be to bring your car off the closed track and toward an active roadway.

You think that’s bad? Try a snow covered road, the thing wont be able to distinguish road from shoulder and won’t move an inch with out an override.

Nah, I’m a smartphone millennial and I’ll be keeping the wheel in my hands til the day I die.

Well right now autonomous cars can’t even go forward when snow is covering the ground, there’s a thick fog or when there’s a heavy downpour so I’d call that worse. Changing visibility, if anything, will be the nail in the coffin for autonomous cars.

We here in Canada are currently replacing a good chunk of our Naval and Air Force fleets, so forgive us for not spending more on munitions.... Not that it really matters now that we’ve dropped out of the massively unsuccessful and illegal air campaign.

This guy and macros though.

Meh, I wouldn’t worry about it. While bouts of psychosis are common when trying lots of hallucinogens for the first time, you can reduce the risk to near zero by having an experienced guide, a safe place and a plan of action for the night. But yeah, don’t drop LSD for the first time alone/with someone just as…

You’ve never worked a festival first-aid tent, have you? Bouts of psychosis are very common when people take a multitude of hallucinogens. The risks increase a fuck ton when they’re new to the drug and don’t have a guide, or if they’re in an unfamiliar/stressful place (say, oh, a music festival with 20,000 attendees…

Annnnnnnnnnnnd a +1 for you!

I get it, you like cars.

Aggh nooooooooo, the studio format was what made the show palatable. Unless every episode is going to be like a special, say goodbye to the mass appeal.

And that someone is a person, not a car.

Gotta love the 15 year rule.

The people passing the laws are elected, so yo’d better start with them.
