They’re “going fishing” trying to find probable cause to get you out of the vehicle and allowed to search you and it.

If you say you’re going to / from the bar? Well obviously you’ve been drinking, please step out of the vehicle.

I don’t always say “officer you don’t need that information” I just say something like “home/library” since it provokes the least amount of questions.

I don’t give them my license, I only need to show it to them. They can copy down the relevant information needed to verify it’s legitimacy the same way they do when they take it.

I don’t need to roll down my window, I only need to communicate with them. They can speak up and I am more than capable of yelling so they don’t misunderstand anything. An open window is not needed unless someone plans on reaching through it, which neither of us need to do.

I don’t need to give them my insurance card, they only need to know it’s current and for this vehicle. Again they can copy down relevant information and call the insurance company later, which they weren’t going to do anyway.

I don’t need to tell them where I was, or where I was going, as it’s none of their business and not relevant to the stop, which was likely for failing to signal properly, or speeding due to a missed sign.

There’s plenty you dont HAVE to tell them, give them, or show them, but if you’re going to do any of the above, know your state and local laws regarding these, and don’t be intentionally rude, since they’re already going to be pissy.

Also note: it’s much easier to get through this sort of interaction if you’re white. We all know cops are racist shitbags just looking for an excuse.

I am not a lawyer, this is not legal advice, just someone who is tired of being targeted in the areas around Columbus Ohio that are known for pulling people over for the slightest of infractions in order to go fishing for a reason to arrest someone.

She tries to go around or leap over them, or runs across them like they’re a platform in a video game that will fall if you stand on them too long.

Likely she is ripping out paw pad hairs as the slats shift around and pinch together, and there is the possibility of getting claws stuck as well.

That’s why my largest dog doesn’t like them.

Mkultra is STILL treated like some nut job conspiracy theory.

I bring it up as example of how the government will do whatever to whoever and lie for decades, fuck the consequences.

People look at me like I’m crazy, and plenty have even straight up told me mk ulta isn’t real, is just a conspiracy, just an excuse for hippies who did too many drugs, any number of “that didn’t happen” excuses. Including “if it actually happened, we would know”. To which I responded “THEY FUCKING ADMITTED IT” and that was the end of the conversation because I cursed and therefore lost an “argument” I didn’t know I was in…

Ohio is crazy…

“this is the future the left wants under COMMIESOCIALMARXISM!”

dystopian picture of current day late-stage-capitalism in the US

Nobody needs/wants the white liberal to speak for them, but another voice in the crowd demanding something surely can’t be a bad thing?

Those aren’t the eggs I’m looking for.

However, could you assist me in locating a ham?

Well, when you come back and read this I hope you had a good trip, since by now (2 hours later) you should be feeling it.

I decided after 3 bad trips, I’m just okay with not trying again.

Hope you have a great ride! If you see the Sky Snake, tell her I said hi.

Same.

Every time I visited him, even if it was the third time that week, he would break out a small flashlight he replaced the incandescent bulb with a (very dim) led, tell me about how LEDs work, and demonstrate the fact that it won’t work in reverse…

I still have the flashlight.

I was just about to say “the blessing of being a full grown adult that loves finding Nemo”…

I always wanted to hear that joke the right way…

It’s important that those 100x are to different people.

Your coworker sound like my grandpa.

“Our Glorious Agricultural Fields” vs “Their Barbaric Farming Practices”

We made it constitutionally protected via the 13th Ammendment. It’s bullshit, and one of the many reasons, IMO, why minorities (especially black people) are still disproportionately targeted by law enforcement.

smacks forhead

I even went back up to double check it was goblin…

Clearly I cannot read today. I should go back to sleep…

And China is enslaving people currently.

I mean, the post is about the UK and we’re bringing up other countries for no reason, right?

Sorry but that “soulless” goblin is smiling contentedly in the last panel, I find it hard to believe that anything without a soul can feel happy.

… Maybe the bard is just that good?

Chucks don’t wood.

Would wood chucks chuck wood chucking wood?

Chuck chucks chuckwood would chuck.

Okay look, I have a large piece of old leather I’ve been meaning to make into pieces for my Renfaire outfit, I have dozens of pieces of steel that are waiting to become knives and other tools, there’s 20-something 3d projects in various states of unfinished on my laptop, and I’ve got 3 large woodworking projects on hold.

Of course I can start hyperfixating on a new project!

My sister and I would make people around us uncomfortable with our “fighting” but the second someone tries to butt in and take one side, we both would jump down their throats that they have no right to talk shit about the other sibling. And Your Deity help you if you actually raise a hand against one sibling, because you might catch a baseball bat in the neck from the other.

It’s like my mother. I am allowed to call my mom an asshole for certain things, but the second someone else does it, that’s not cool.

You know, quantum resonance in the Heisenberg compensators. Sometimes the dice spit out an impossible number.

Don’t even get me started on the time we rolled a natural negative
