Personally, I keep a flail in my car. Study HEMA so i'm good with a lot of simple things like pipes as well if it comes down to it. I should get a bikelock really.

The trick that Eric didn't seem to get about using a bike lock as an improvised weapon is that if you twist your wrist at the last second, you can really amplify the force.

If you force it to swing.

Exactly, same method with maces.

Reason why blunt objects with such handles are very dangerous when striking the top of the head.

The great thing is, nobody looks at you twice if you've got a bike lock in the city.

Also why people stopped using flat helmets in medieval times.

Also Chin Reveal.

is this another failed f76 merch ?

Bruh. I already said I worked as a bike courier.

it looks plastic to me 😃

And no, that's a Chrome messenger bag. My old one. My newer one wasn't within reach like my Old reliable bike lock is.

Cross posting from debate....

Tims getting bludgeoned in the comments on his video for the GoFundMe wall campaign, mostly for citing Buzzfeed. All I've read are uncompelling stances against buzzfeed as whole, or stating the alternative non-profit intriduction doesn't qualify as grounds for modifying the original campaign terms. No one seems to want to engage any other substantive details.

thats because it's Buzzfeed

i.e. the terms state that a goal of $1bn has to be met to secure all donors contributions be petitioned for actual border efforts. It's still only at $20mn, way short of any campaign goal that would distribute any portion anywhere else other than the GoFundMe holding position

All of the instances addressed in the buzzfeed article are sound and valid in and ofthemselves, though...,

when shit

Can Tim, on any topic, produce coverage along with his arguement that captures the fact pattern in its required scope and scale, rather than relying on ommission of details so as to substantiate his position? I mean come on bro, one upload after another the past several months have failed on this front

you mean less videos but better quality?

Though I'm totally for something new/different.

like every once in a while some "tech news", if there is something he likes to talk about

Theres some potential in progressing his presentation, but the method of trim down the information being presented so as to not interfere with the conclusion at the end, effectively restricting factual details

Just watched the 'russia narrative falls apart again' spot he put up

Maybe he should try to pull a styx every once in a while?

or a bit Mehdi Sadaghdar

And the title reflects his sentiment and conclusion, whixh are both in part dependent on his presentation of the figures so far found culpable in relation to the campaign / president

He should approach the matter by steel manning the arguement hes competing against

But hes consistently arguing against incomplete and or the weaker arguements

tim is kinda doing what he can aford to do right now, he talks about doing more but i and others assume he isint ready yet. a year or 2 ago he did a lot more on the ground coverage but i dont know what the finacial differences are now and then

For sure, we will all have some constraints. But my criticism is more directly trusted towards his model of rhetoric.

Trusted=thrust

whats his rhetoric?

Lay the premise of the matter to favor his conclusion, often by trim away details that are not favorable to his conclusion
