potentially, also there's just the opportunity cost and actual cost of going to court in the first place

🤠 Having Castle Doctrine in TX is nice

it even applies to when you're in your car

use the ol' dollar bill on a fishing pole trick

speaking of creepy I recently found out that Galveston TX is one of the worlds "most haunted" towns

But surely bannerlord is right around the corner, right?

Android's also changing/changed the dagger to a blue sparkly fantasy sword, and took the egg out of the salad to make it vegan friendly

He's got KKK patches on his vest. I think he was just walking back with them because he had something to say

Well it's probably not often they'd get a chance to show them off

Time zones are an abomination that should be taken out back

Or at least greatly standardized

No, just do away with time all together

Time is just a number man

Time is a spook

Yakub was not a white man

We learned about that a bit in my communications class

What's that term for societies where they don't take time strictly? Like if you tell someone to meet you at 12 they might show up from 12-5

It's hard to. They lost that fight a long time ago, and any sticking to it just deserve to be laughed at

"It's racist to expect PoC to adhere to a schedule because they don't understand how time works" - some anti-racism activist probably

Is it just me or did the onion go down in quality after they were bought by univision?

It's been a lot of people saying that about civility the last week. Also don't forget them conflating political correctness and civility to try and point out hypocrisy in those who say that civility is good.

Yeah, but they need to tear everything down because the pipe dream utopia in their head is totally going to work

Everyone knows making things terrible is the first step to improving things

Oh yeah, I just remembered the terms are 'monochronic' and 'polychronic' where monochronic societies care about schedules, and polychronic ones are less static and dependent on time

It's nice being able to step over the border into a country where I'm a minority so that I can be as prejudiced as I want, but it's ok because I'm oppressed

In that case they can increase their scope of the 'system' globally to say that white people still have more power than Nigerians

Oh no. I never even thought of that.

Sounds likely. It's not like they have a lot of art coming from there that is going to be getting attention from the west, so they would probably want to support it

And yeah a lot of the more realism focused games seem to attract those types. Like Red Orchestra for example

Lesson: Don't try to hand feed sharks.

It's true, see:

Actual video of Jack himself

Wow they upload a ton of videos each day.

Looks like any of their videos not related to racism or Trump get about a third of the views as those that are

Kind of pointless when all their videos are available at any time

Just means they're going to be forced to cover meaningless bullshit like 'actor doesn't like that twitter lets us know who people are'

Like seriously if these people cared about exposing white supremacists they should WANT them verified

For the longest time I had no idea if Richard Spencer was actually a white supremacist or not because I knew I couldn't just trust that label to be handed out accurately

Same shit here. If someone is being racist on twitter I want to know it's coming from them and not a fake account.

According to Tim you dress like people you wanna bang, so if you can use it if you see any hot dudes in beanies

What'd he do that triggered it?

Probably different when you're a public figure

Good. Let it die with no children.

like following the rules

He seems a bit fanny flustered

I don't often give in to schadenfreud, but damn if I don't get a smile every time I see another sword stuck in the crawling corpse of Gawker.

I can see it happening in some countries for sure.

Like Britain at times already feels like an anarcho-tyrany

1st and 2nd wave had a lot of questionable elements to them as well, we only remember the good ones

Like the suffragettes(NOT the suffragists) were terrorists at times. Firebombing buildings, throwing axes at politicians, defacing art, etc.

Could they actually? I thought it was that most women didn't want the right to vote because it would've come with the draft

Which of course fuck them. They were denying others their rights because they didn't want them

Do you know any source where I can read about that? Because everything I've heard says that they COULDN'T vote no matter what, but it was commonly accepted that if they were given the right to vote it would come with the responsibility of being forced to enter the draft

And also many considered it to be a pointless right since everyone got married early back then, and 90% of them were just going to vote what their husband did anyways, so double the votes on both sides wasn't going to help them much

But yeah there was a lot of shit back then that still exists in the 3rd wave

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rokeby_Venus#Vandalism,_1914

go for it

Yeah, but playing against them and hosting them is going to likely ruin your business

I don't know enough about how sports leagues are structured

I don't think so especially not when it's clear they're going to keep winning given their record (which is probably unrelated to their race)

But we don't know they're going to do that

I think it would be disastrous PR for anyone hosting them. Just look at how someone as milquetoast as Jordan Peterson gets treated when he attends an event. These are ACTUAL white supremacists

They give interviews, and if they're big enough then people do listen

You can find the ones from Ali where he talks about being anti-miscegenation

Yeah, it is a bit different when it's just their personal private beliefs that they aren'r forcing on anyone

But still after it coming out I think many would have trouble supporting them in any way

I think it's a question of who runs the league.

If it's some public thing anyone can join and having personal beliefs isn't against the rules then I don't think they should be disallowed

But if it's a private business type thing it's more of a grey area

Yeah, but it's pretty normal to have bad feelings towards someone when they have such extreme beliefs that can spoil your enjoyment of what they produce

Like I listen to a lot of anarcho-communist music, but some of it despite sounding good goes too far and just ruins my ability to enjoy it

I guess that's a bad example

since it's more about the art than the artist

I wouldn't personally hold it against anyone who said "I just like watching their technique"

agreed

I don't have to like it, and I don't have to support it, but that doesn't mean they should be stripped of their ability to play a sports

I still think it's weird that people care so much about a high schooler's thoughts on politics

Definitely not destruction of property, but something else like grievous bodily harm makes sense

I thought quickening was supposed to double your move speed and grant one more attack at your highest base attack bonus on full attacks

I'm sure the fact that a STAR WARS movie performing so well made some people in the movie industry scared

They've been depending on brand recognition to sell tickets for a while now

Yeah, I just hope it doesn't swing too far. I don't want to see this shit everywhere I look regardless of which side it is

2000: Keep your identity secret so you don't get kidnapped over AOL
2020: Keep your identity secret so you don'g get fired after being an asshole to your customers

But I guess then they can't get pats on the back from all of their followers

and they won't be able to wield their industry position as a cudgel

DC has done a lot better than Marvel recently for sure.

But it's still increasing the length of influence 'you' have on the world

One of the interesting parts of the manga 'Gantz' was when a teleporter malfunctioned and didn't delete the person's body but still recreated it elsewhere, so now they have two of the same person, and only one of them actually gets to keep their normal life

probably got it from them then

You can mess with people a lot and they'll ignore it because they've got other shit to worry about, but you can't mess with someone's bread or circus

The question is how much of the message got through? Like some of the critics were pushing the idea that this is because it starred a white man

At least we have far more grassroots options for consumable entertainment. Even my >60 year old mom is watching less and less TV and more user created content. Just hope Youtube doesn't keep fucking shit up, or someone else takes over

I've seen a lot of hardcore Star Wars fans who loved it at first increasingly admitting that they don't like it much anymore

I think a lot of people think the Star Wars movies are all good because they love Star Wars instead of loving Star Wars because the movies are good

If it were genetically modified to have no emotions I think it would change quite a bit, but it might be hard to motivate someone like that to work

I think Star Wars is a lot like Harry Potter. None of the stories are that special, and the characters aren't particularly deep, but the universe is what's special about it.

I think there's a fair argument for it not being human, but that if they think and feel like a human does then they deserve all the same rights

and really in that case I'd still want to call them human when not discussing biology
