but provides no evidence of wrongdoing

So surely it will be rejected and nobody being sued will even need to show up since nobody even has any evidence?

Surely…

Don’t care how they got it.

Unethically, probably illegally.

saw war as a thrilling, life-or-death, adventure.

That just sounds like psychopath-lite…

Oh man, I missed bullpupping memes…

Five) is a good one. Like “oh shit… I fucked this one up too much, I guess I’ll see how it turns out but I’m gonna start over with a new batch”

I’d love to see someone more creative with writing than me do some writing prompts with that premise. Maybe have someone from this universe ascend or something and actually confronts god as they’re spending time with their new family creation.

六> is also a good one, it reminds me of the idea that every single person is God. And when all of humanity has finally lived and died, god will become a single consciousness and join the rest of their kind. It kind of pairs poetically with Carl Sagan’s Pale Blue Dot.

The way I figure it, one of a few possibilities is true:

1 there is a god. He lets all the bad shit happen, and therefore isn’t worthy of dedication.

B: there is no god. Shit happens. Nobody is there to be worthy of dedication.

III- there is a god. It kicked off the big bang and sat back to watch. Either it has the ability to affect positive change and doesn’t, or it can’t. In which case, it’s still not worthy of dedication.

The end result is the same for me

A person can dream.

I live just outside a no-fly zone around an airport. Maybe a mile away, slightly under.

I never take my drone above the trees unless I’m away from home because I’m paranoid about anything going wrong and my drone just taking off in one direction until it dies or hits something.

I’d rather be extra cautious and be lightly mocked than cause the airport to shut down and have the alphabet boys knocking on/down my door.

Especially since I live close enough to a military base that my drone could theoretically reach it in a flyaway, if winds are helping it along.

Note: I have been lucky enough that in four years, I have never lost contact with my drone, but the paranoia remains.

The sentence that was handed down based on the evidence should be served by the fabricators. And because punishment for the poors is extremely disproportionate (snatching $20 from a counter is not deserving of a year in prison) I say add 20% to the sentence, minimum.

Make them serve 18 years, minimum. Of course, their choices are solitary for their protection or Gen-pop.

Make every company that has a whistleblower die in ANY way face extremely heavy penalties including, but not limited to: 75% taxing on all income for a period of time as part of a fine, jail time for executives, board members, and potentially large shareholders, potential nationalization of the company, etc

Make every company afraid to have a whistleblower die. Make them want to hire private security and pay for all health expenses to ensure the person lives because the alternative is the company ceases to exist in any way that benefits those in charge.

The angled DOD seal to reflect Walter’s slightly down turned head is a nice touch

That screeching noise you hear is the sound of them backtracking, hard.

killing a cop

Weird how one civilian killing another somehow has a different meaning just because of the jobs they work. Seems pretty fucking stupid if you ask me. If it was going to be a harsher penalty(,) then I’d expect it to be a(n) actually beneficial job that people should respect like a pediatrician or janitor.

(edited for grammar)

She assaulted me directly, and since my wrist is in an ace wrap, obviously it was a savage attack.

Why isn’t she being arrested on my word alone?

Oh right, because we live in completely different worlds where the rich and politicians get extremely preferential treatment up to and including literal fucking treason without repercussions.

If it’s enough to arrest a woman in Florida, it should be enough here.

“If conservatives become convinced that they can not win democratically, they will not abandon conservatism. They will reject democracy.”

surely they’ll follow up with investments into US-produced solar equipment to boost the economy and bring prices down to competitive levels, right?

… Right?

Yeah, I don’t think anyone would ask you “Are you okay with sitting at the bar with nazis?” yet plenty will happily judge you for saying “I’d rather not have to deal with MAGAts and their opinions”

Sorry but if your opinion is “trans people aren’t people” or “blacks need to know their place” then your opinion is shit and no the fuck I don’t have to listen to it

… And?

Why do we give a shit?

Why is this newsworthy?

Are we going to hear about his time working in retail soon? I’m sure it will provide deep insight to find out which store he worked at for 3 months, 8 years ago. clearly that’s relevant information.

It’s too convenient, basically all the circumstantial evidence they would need to pin it on someone was found on the person who knows they’re the target of a manhunt? Not likely.

Having seen security from the place the police suspect stayed and the ceo video, it’s clearly not the same person. It someone who vaguely could be mistaken from a distance. Too much doesn’t match for me to ever vote anything other than not guilty.

The only thing that man is guilty of as far as I am concerned is having an extra sharp chin. And that’s not a crime last I checked.
