Ain’t that the truth. I saw some choice quotes from the ‘77 court papers once (not that I recommend anyone doing that), and man, there was a whole disturbing ritual to this. Would not be surprised if there’s a Cosby level number of victims out there.

‘Suppressor’ is a technical term, ‘silencer’ is a marketing term, from way back when Percy Maxim sold firearm suppressors as ‘Maxim Silencers’. The US government uses the term ‘silencer’, not because of function (for which ‘suppressor’ is more accurately descriptive), but simply because it was first, ‘suppressor’ was…

Gun control in America began in California in ‘67 with the Mulford Act, a direct bipartisan response to Black Panthers realising that they could carry guns too. Signed into law by Ronald Reagan, of course.

Plastic and tape. Be sure to cover everything, even the ceiling (I learned this from “Dexter”). Should be a good start.

Yeah, this is nice, I guess, but is it too much to expect them to change the name of the church because it’s named after a racist who fought to prolong slavery, and not because it’s “divisive”, like there’s two sides to this. Also, you wrote ‘scared fabric’ where I’m pretty sure it’s supposed to be ‘sacred fabric’.…

Yeah, I think I saw that video. A couple of kids with ‘my soul is dead, my life is pain’ eyes, and three kids like the kids from “NOS4A2”.

I’m from Norway. What is weird is that until fairly recently we were the tallest nation. But these things change, I suppose. At 6'3", and 40 years old, I’m pretty tall among my peers, but I work at a university, and compared to the students, I’m not tall (just fat) at all.

And Geoffrey Rush as James Woods!

You know how people say, “it was the worst vacation!”, or whatever, but then you have the editing of Suicide Squad. It really has to be the worst editing in a major motion picture. I mean, I just love movies, I don’t know anything about editing theory, or cinematography or anything, but damn. Folding Human has a…

My .02; There was nothing she could have done with the script for Suicide Squad, and then it was butchered in the editing bay after, so... She was good in Valerian (certainly better than DeHaan, who seems to be getting most of the praise), mixing it up with a pretty stellar cast and coming out ok. It was a (large) bit…

Hehe, well, I didn’t /break/ too many, but I still got new ones approx. every year, because my vision kept getting worse.

Yeah, wtf was that? I use glasses (well actually contacts these days), and I have since I was little. It’s mildly inconvenient, not heartbreaking.

Alt-left: Maybe throwing a few well-deserved bricks, alt-handshaking some fashies. Alt-right: Running death camps out in the desert.

Yeah, “How can we continue doing business when people know what we’re actually doing?!?”

What they have him behind bars for atm is manslaughter, which carries a maximum sentence of 8 years, but the actual charge (and the investigative focus, I bet) is intentional murder, which could be life in prison, iirc.

Nooo... I mean, I’m from Norway, so I’m not 100% sure, but what’s reported in the news here, is that he’s detained on a charge of “manslaughter under especially serious circumstances” (or something like that; it’s a little tough to translate into English; ‘uaktsomt drap under særdeles skjerpede omstendigheter’,…

Someone, sorry can’t remember who, commented on an earlier article that he probably made a pass at her, was rejected, and killed and dumped her. I thought, yeah, that unfortunately seems likely, and now I think its definitely that. He seems to claim that she died from some kind of accident, but if so... then... just…

These events make it clear, now more than ever, that Confederate monuments have become symbols of modern white supremacy and neo-Nazism,” Fenves said in a statement.

It’s so they can’t spin it. “You are alleging my clients’ grippy lifty appendage came in contact with your general buttockular area?” “Uh no, dingdong, he grabbed my ass with his grubby store-brand-dj hand”.

This! Bitcoin isn’t bullshit because it’s “digital currency” or “digital” —all money is digital. That 20$ bill is a physical symbol for the “actual” money, which is a number in a computer system. Bitcoin is bullshit because it isn’t money at all, it’s digital gold, and gold-as-money is bullshit, because the point of…
