Get your hands off my penis, SIR!

Seems like there’s some correlation with your average Florida Man and many of them seem to belong in an institution too.

I’m not a medical professional, but I’ve seen breakdowns of similar wounds. I think this can be compared to being shot in the heart. It creates a massive blood pressure increase that my guess in this case causes the brain to react with fencing. I’ve read that the pressure spike can be the cause of death before blood even leaves the body. Either that or some side effect of damaging the brain stem.

The entire problem is that people like Charlie are specifically hating people who are doing nothing wrong and being neutral. I completely agree with you. He is the agitator. It shows you who the bad guys are when you see who they root against.

No, no, no. These weapons pale in comparison to basic infantry in the modern military. Not only are they way overkill for anything a law abiding citizen should ever need for recreation, they would also be useless in the case of a 2nd Amendment related coup of the corrupt government.

Part of me agrees with you. The other part of me knows how well capitalism can pivot so much quicker than laws can be made to curtail the bad practices, that the system seems to be the issue. Maybe the government is the issue too, but it’s a lot of bad faith companies that ruins the bunch. Forward thinking and progressive thinking with quick measured action could do it, but most people who are elected aren’t capable of that or are too compromised to make anything work.

I’ve thought this for a long time. Until every living person has virtually every one of their needs met at virtually all times, abortion isn’t even on the table as something to worry about. We have a responsibility for what we have already, not some potential human that has plenty of other ways they would never make it to adulthood.

This isn’t an excuse for the difference, but I wonder how exposure bias played into their perception. If a person was more accustomed to men in a specific situation and a woman “surprised them” by being involved, it could lead to time passing being perceived as longer. It would be similar to how any new experience is often perceived as taking longer than a familiar one in the same time period. Underrepresentation of women in that scenario would support it.

I agree with your reasoning but I think it highlights a major difference between genders in those stories. The hulk has decades of backstory that lets you just throw him into any plot as a badass. You don’t need to invent why he’s a badass because we all know it and the origin story is so played out that we all gloss over it. Now do that with a female character. Writing the equivalent to decades of lore in one origin story and then doing something with that origin in the same movie is way harder. Wonder Woman would be kinda similar but those origins are muddy with misogyny vibes. So now you have to use well established S tier characters to garner attention and bring in a fresh female face of similar calibar of power and act like they earned decades of respect in one movie. Either you’re Mary sue or treated like a child in those situations. The lore fights female empowerment because of baggage. I feel sorry for anyone trying to write for a character like she hulk with all of the obstacles that exist, but I get why the attempts weren’t successful.

If you are being serious, his name is Lionel Messi, an Argentinian native, and he is one of the most popular athletes world wide. He plays soccer but is towards the end of his career at this point as he plays in the United States professional soccer league, MLS, which is pretty much retirement for a player of his caliber. The jersey he is wearing is from FC Barcelona, in the Spanish professional soccer league, which is where he spent the majority of his career and gained his popularity. If you were joking then you got me haha.

It’s crazy that Mr. Burns from the Simpsons was in nuclear and not coal or oil. Probably a product of the propaganda at the time.

I’m sure the other rock/liquid/gas burning plants have had no issues along their lifetime and had no hand in demonizing the “new” slowly exploding rock technology after extreme negligence let the one big one happen. /s

I’d take the band aid of nuclear in my backyard vs what we rely on now after learning all of the insider knowledge of someone who personally worked in energy generation that did all of this plus renewables almost their entire professional life.

I can almost forgive some of these others. But I don’t understand how a person, much less a dad, could even begin to commit such an attrocity. The second I don’t click the tongs, tweezers, hell even scissors, you will know that I have been compromised.

I totally agree with your outlook and made a pretty similar post to yours a couple minutes ago. My only addition would be some concern as to why it seems like attacks are causing the downtime. The attacks do encourage improvement, but why do it in the first place. I’m hoping bored enthusiasts. At least it wouldn’t be BS corporate attacks trying to eliminate competition.

As a user with pretty limited knowledge on servers, I appreciate how easy it is to flip from instance to instance. One goes down and I use a backup account somewhere else. I’m really not keeping close attention to which one I’m on at the moment. It gives me access and lets me comment/post. I’m not trying to build any profile so it doesn’t matter. I could see a major poster or mod want multiple accounts with the same name for consistency sake though.

I guess that’s like tons but damn that is frustrating to learn. You finally did it and all called it the same thing and then just messed it all up. We were so close!

Well in that case, please let me introduce you to the inch. I have a good feeling about this!

I’ve dabbled in the virtual assistants because I wanted to see what they can do. Siri (it’s been years so I don’t know if it improved), Alexa, Google, are all horse shit. Every time I try to use them it works like garbage. They either trigger incorrectly or try to implement something I don’t want. The few times they do work correctly I don’t trust them because of all the other garbage experiences so I have to double check what they did. That negates the entire point from a time and convenience standpoint.

You’re exactly right. They are legally required to turn it over when compelled. Let’s keep that mess away from the federation. It will only get worse.
