Whenever I see someone supporting Tesla, or the GND in general online, I always make sure to ask them how many kids they have. Very few say zero.

If the GND refers to AOC's trash propaganda, I think most supporters I know don't have kids, although a few have had kids lately and, honestly, they have more problems being the kids of those parents than anything else.

The other thing a lot of people forget is the sheer size of the US, and how absolutely shit mass transit is in most places. Cars are pretty much a necessity here in ways that they aren't in other countries. So we're pretty much going to generate far more waste in that respect than most other places, regardless of whether we're using combustion engines or electric.

This.

ParanoidObsessive posted...
And most of this ultimately doesn't matter if you focus most of your attention on the individual level rather than the corporate level. Outlawing plastic bags at supermarkets or pushing people to buy electric cars doesn't really help if companies are still dumping tons of waste into the environment and there's tons of fuel being used on airplanes and trucks for cargo transport. It's a scenario where we need to change from the top down more than from the ground up.

Also this. It also turns people off from environmental shit, and is part of what got me out of it (as well as learning that so many of the claims were flat-out false)

Why fix homelessness when you can just make it illegal instead?

That is a fix, the same as curbing other criminal conduct.

adjl posted...
If most other anti-homeless legislation is anything to go on, they'll be fined, obviously never pay that fine, spend a night or two in jail for missing their court date for not paying said fine, then pick up where they left off when they get out and repeat the cycle again. Periodically, if too many homeless people are gathering in one spot, you'll see large police raids to disperse them, at which point they'll go somewhere else.

The end result of this, of course, is a whole lot of money spent on police and legal resources with absolutely nothing to show for it and a homeless population that will never never have the credit rating they need to rent a place of their own (since those missed fines destroy it). But hey, at least some voters might not have to look at quite as many homeless people. That's gotta count for something, right?

Why should it be any different than the rest of the criminal justice system? >_>

I've seen people advocate for showing kids porn in sex ed, under the rationale that it provides an opportunity to examine it critically and understand what is and isn't realistic so they develop mroe reasonable expectations around sex. Naturally, the reaction was about on par with what this lady got, but I think there's some merit to the idea. As much as people would like to pretend otherwise, pretty much anyone that's started puberty is going to be checking out porn at some point or another. Might as well preempt that and give them that experience in a controlled environment where they can have questions answered and misconceptions addressed.

Pretty much, although the problem is still that once people start watching the vanilla stuff, they eventually move onto the other areas. Plus sex addictions are more common to get at younger ages because the brain is still developing (which, for boys, doesn't stop until 25; I think girls might be the same or sooner)

it helps that their concerns are illegitimate to begin with

Because death is illegitimate? Keep in mind that most of the people who have had fatal side-effects have been in the lowest risk brackets. And death is just the most severe concern. There are lots of other other legitimate concerns.

Entity13 posted...
What I do imagine is someone trying to avoid a sore arm only to end up with a sore everything, or worse - that and the inability to pay for much-needed respiration.

When they did a spot test at grocery store in NY in 2020, they found that a large number of people showed signs of having recovered from COVID despite the fact they never even realized they had it. In general, the vaccine less about protecting you -- unless you're elderly or have a compromised immune system -- than it is about protecting others by trying to control the spread. And the theory is that even though the vaccine will kill a certain number of people (and that number will be relatively low), those sacrifices will ensure the safety of everybody else. Which is a logical utilitarian argument, but it's not so great for those who die from the vaccine.

Incidentally, that's why we're having that huge push for teens right now. Very few teens have died from COVID (and iirc almost all of them had underlying conditions), but they're potential carriers. I mean, look at the PSAs -- they're very explicitly encouraging kids taking the vaccine to protect others.

And in general, you can probably expect several rounds of vaccines because the WHO completely mishandled the early infection -- effectively repeating CCP propaganda even while the CCP was locking up whistleblowing doctors (many of whom died from COVID in prison) -- and the international response has been the shits, and thus the virus has been able to mutate as it spread.

Imagine trolling with this nonsense to strawman peoples' concerns to de-legitimize them.

Although, to be fair, my arm is *still* sore at the injection site months later, so even the actual trivial reason I wouldn't entirely dismiss (I had serious doubts when it came to the guy administering it; I should have just gone somewhere else, but it was a pain to find any place with the Janssen). If I didn't have a physical coming up in about another month, I'd probably have scheduled a doctor's appointment about this. The metallic taste in my mouth went away about after a week, although food still doesn't taste quite right. Honestly, though, my reaction seems mild compared to some of my relatives who got the Pfizer, since theirs were just really fucking bad. I had a headache, but I don't think I even felt any fatigue.

I will say that it's hard to end the series while making everybody happy, but it's almost as hard to end a series making everybody unhappy. They, uh, opted for the worse of the difficult outcomes.

He has no related priors, that's the point. Someone with evident moral degeneracy would certainly be higher on my watch list.

That makes no sense. If somebody is convicted for a moral degeneracy, you now know their degeneracy and they're unable to cover up their crimes. It makes the odds of a specific completely unrelated degeneracy less likely, certainly far less likely than the general population. There are some crimes you can maybe stretch, but this is pretty unlikely.

Reigning_King posted...
I can't help but notice several people itt using the term "pedo", if the allegation is true that would make him a child molester which is an entirely different thing.

If he was a child molester, he'd also almost certainly be a pedophile. The term still fits, unless you're suggesting that people may be molesting children without being attracted to them which... idk, I guess would be possible if they were just creating CP for commercial purposes, but it feels like a lot of leaps.

Reigning_King posted...
Not even close. That sort of thinking actually leads to real life harm in some cases. Most child molesters are "simply" oppertunistic sexual predators, the age of the victim is only relevant to them in that it makes them easier to control and thus abuse. These same people have no problems carrying on relationships with adults and often don't have the same telltale "red flags" that a true pedophile might display and so they actually have easier access to victims.

In the case of somebody pursuing pubescent minors, maybe, but that seems pretty unlikely in the case of prepubescent minors because you'd need some specific attraction. Otherwise I'm not sure there's much basis to the claim that pedophiles are exclusively into prepubescent children, because sexual deviancy is on a spectrum. And that's overlooking the pedophiles who deliberately carry on relationships with adults as a cover for their fascination with kids (which has been the case with other sexual preferences that were illegal at the time), or are with adult partners as a substitute for children.

I'm not saying that you don't always have opportunistic predators, but this is something you'd need at least *some* interest in to do it.

Considering that recording one-on-one meetings isn't a terribly unusual practice, that doesn't really factor into anything. And keep in mind performance evaluations very frequently come into lawsuits (and was a major part in BOTH of the lawsuits I almost got stuck serving jury duty for).

But, in general, there are a LOT of workplaces where most conversations are recorded. Even some white collar jobs go way overboard with recording devices, and I don't even mean hedge funds like Bridgewater.

idk, in the age of #MeToo, any 1-on-1 interaction between a male boss and female worker is fraught with peril, so your reluctance is perhaps a little understandable. You can probably get around them -- and the idea that you're treating anybody differently -- by recording the conversations, so people are less likely to try something if they get a performance review they dislike and want to get even or something.

Uh... I've never heard of it working. I'm not talking about legitimate complaints here.

Then it's a misleading topic, since people say that during legitimate complaints. And the fact that people do get fired after complaints on a regular basis makes them believe it.

And, beyond that, we've seen internet trolls go after peoples' jobs so it happens with some regularity.

Also, I don't mean to sound insensitive, but does this actually qualify as a "mass" shooting? You could call it an attempted mass shooting I guess but I figured there was criteria they had to be met to be called that like with spree killings and serial killings.

That's because it doesn't qualify as a mass shooting under *any* widely accepted definition, which is why the articles didn't use it. Kimbo is just trolling like always, probably because he thinks it's funny.

The second amendment was written in regards to regulated militias and with, in mind, the guns available at that era. The forefathers considered, also, that times and technology will change, an so too must the Constitution and its amendments lest our country be a monument of barbarism in the face of worldwide civilization.

All of which is complete bullshit and propaganda, although rewriting history must be fun. Next you can explain how the forefathers recognized that older houses were smaller so the Third Amendment shouldn't apply to big, modern homes.

I was about to post a sarcastic comment pretending to say this but here you are

"It's not a mass shooting. They just shot into an audience in a theater and only hit 2 people, this isn't a mass shooting, stop pushing a liberal agenda." I adjust my trilby and tighten my fingerless gloves. "Another liberal owned" I chuckle. A beep echos in the distance. My Pizza Pockets are ready.

I was going to post a sarcastic remark demonstrating how fucking stupid and ignorant your shitpost was, but then I thought it'd be easier just to point out how fucking stupid and ignorant your shitpost is by citing the actual articles, more specifically the one that the Gamespot one sourced but misrepresented:

https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/local-news/teen-dead-california-theater-shooting-forever-purge-1234989109/

An 18-year-old woman was killed and a 19-year-old man was critically injured after a shooting at The Regal Edwards Corona Crossings RPX theater on Monday night.
Police were called for service at 11:45 p.m. to The Crossings, at 2650 Tuscany St., for an unknown problem. Upon arrival, officers located a man and woman who had both suffered gunshot wounds. The 19-year-old man was taken to a local hospital with life-threatening injuries. The 18-year-old female died from her injuries at the scene. The names of the victims have not been released, pending notification of relatives.

There are few details available, but if you used even a lick of common sense you'd realize the sheer implausibility of gunman shooting wildly into the crowd yet only hitting *two* people. And if you used a lick of common sense, you'd realize the sheer improbability of articles NOT disclosing that the guy was shooting wildly if he was. Given the outcome, it was more likely the result of a personal dispute.

She came back and said "I just wanted to come on here and clarify some things because it is definitely a serious situation. I now realize i used the incorrect terminology. It's not "pedophilia, it should be ephebophilia, when someone is attracted to post pubescent girls at the age range of 15-19"

Or just calling it nothing, since 16 is the AOC throughout most of the developed world including much of America. Actually, it's kinda weird that *Florida* of all places has a 18 AOC.

I'm sorry for his loss. Hopefully he does what I did and wait 10 years to figure out that he quit because he was watching the wrong stuff.

tbh, I've had numerous gaps in my anime watching over the years and not once have I ever felt like I missed out on anything. With the exception of live entertainment, you can check out on most things without really being hurt and then just catch up afterward. Conversely, I picked a fucking shitty time I stop watching wrestling years ago so I missed out on CM Punk's major WWE run while it was happening. That I kinda regret.

And I think I basically quit again. I haven't watched an anime since before my other laptop bugged out, and I haven't done much manga lately either. Or watched much in the way of tv, films, etc.

Judgmenl posted...
I quit because I was pissed they were making anime like... wait for it.
K-ON. The irony is that kyoani is my favorite studio and produced two my my top 3 favorite anime.

K-On was a remarkably blah moe blob series. I liked the art and character designs, but good fucking god was that among the most boring anime I've ever watched. And I generally like slice of life comedies. Genshiken is still probably among my favorites.

Revelation34 posted... I forgot about Disenchantment. Is that any good?

Season 1 mostly sucks, but the seasons afterward are halfway decent. However, the series is absurdly forgettable. I can never remember half the shit that happens.

Depends on the time of day. In general, I need it for professional reasons every day of the week, so... I couldn't go without it a day.

On a personal level, I could get by without it most of the time, and then just use something like Skype/Zoom/Teams in place of calling. It'd be less convenient, but whatever.

Just five?!?!?!?

Ehhhh... kinda hard to pick.

"Schuyler Sisters" is what got me interested in the OBC, so maybe I'll give a spot to that.

"Ten Duel Commandments" is probably a given.

I think "Right Hand Man" might still be my favorite.

And I can't not do "Stay Alive" (#ImAGeneralWhee)

But fuck, that just leaves me with one, and I still have "Wait for It," "Non-Stop," and "Helpless"/"Satisfied" (which are practically one song).... and that's not even going into the second act. (Although, honestly, the second act is less packed. A lot of the songs are slower paced, and a bit more boring.) I'm *probably* going to say "Wait for It" although "Non-Stop" is a lot catchier

I mean, goddamn, there are hardly any lackluster songs in Hamilton. I think the only ones I usually skip are "Story of Tonight" and "Say No to This" (which is slow as fuck and goes forever... and is overly melodramatic and tries to excuse his shit; LMM makes it sound like that was his only affair but, as one person put it, Hamilton "suffered from a superabundance of secretions")

ParanoidObsessive posted...
Not really a fan of Hamilton at all.

...though to be fair, I'm not really a fan of most modern Broadway musicals in general. About the only musical theater I really like is Phantom, Les Mis, and Chess (basically, stuff centered pretty strongly on the 80s aesthetic). Maybe one or two others here and there, but for the most part I've always been left pretty cold by the most critically-acclaimed Broadway shows.

*shakes fist*

A shame that the Disney+ version had to censor most of the F-bombs. Definitely adds impact to a few scenes.

A shame that the Disney+ version fucking sucks. The thing was just a weirdly engineered mess. Honestly, the pirated version where the guy had cover his camera with his hands so ushers didn't catch him looked better.
