    In other news, been Shapiro will be allowed to speak at USC. And people are upset. https://www.dailywire.com/news/36329/usc-approves-ben-shapiro-speech-leftist-group-james-barrett And of course, from the article comes the best piece of hypocrisy and blatent short-think I've ever seen. "The hypocrisy displayed by the supposed representative of the USC administration has betrayed the trust of marginalized students by funding this event that threatens, dehumanizes, and endangers our communities," the call to action reads. "This event and USC's support behind it gives more space and support to dangerously radical conservatives on campus."

    Ten bucks says OD?

    The Sierra club is calling kavanaugh an extremist. I'm behind anybody that makes the Sierra club wet their pants.

    People are now making this about sexism. Comparing "30 year old allegations that boys were molested get national attention. But a 30 year old allegation of rape to a female is ignored and called into question." Awesome.

    Man, do we know any political assassins?

    More Strava news. My question is... 5 bikes stolen? After the FIRST I'd be far more vigilant. Oh, but then I noticed that it's in the UK. Aka crime island. It's probably illegal to lock up your garage at night, in case someone needs to borrow a bike or car or wife or something. https://road.cc/content/news/248798-cyclist-who-had-five-bikes-stolen-says-thieves-are-looking-quick-times-strava Crime & Legal Cyclist who had five bikes stolen says thieves are looking for quick times on Strava to try and find high-end bikes – warns other users to check their privacy settings

    I'm glad I found this. Fuck the Cayenne.

    Agreed. The timing is just a little too convenient for my taste.

    I'd purchase a subscription.

    Honestly, seatbelts are the best thing you can do. There's been 450 deaths so far this year on the highway I take to work. I drive it every morning.

    Now this is interesting. See, we have had politicians try to use mandatory mental health screenings as basis for removing second amendment rights from individuals. It was met with obvious scorn. If the French government did this with transportation I'm sure it would be also met with much scorn. This is a good connection we can see culturally.

    It's absolutely true that mental health in this country is stigmatized. I imagine it's a result of extreme pressures to fit in culturally. The US was the "melting pot". People came here and Americanized their last names. Look at swarzenagers picture he took when he got his citizenship. Even relatively recently Mexican Americans follow this same American pride formula. I'm sure having a mental issue wasn't something that lended itself to this dream of being an American and blending in to the greatest country on Earth.

    By definition, sadly, it does. Because depending on party power structure the time, job security could be at stake.

    Do you understand what a failure mode analysis is? You build a perfect system but you still need to know what happens if it fails. All I'm saying is that if this system fails (worst case), and is corrupted by a regime that does not fall in line with your best interests, then what? I know you have trust in the system. That's not what I question. I question whether or not a worst case failure analysis was done. Because if it was, the system would at the least have some sort of checks/balances. And if the risk assessment done properly then the system would not ever be brought online Subjective approaches like this are fine until they suddenly get turned on you. What if tomorrow, this government says that your contributions to this forum are Haram? Then you get evaluated, as per the law. And they find you unfit. And thus you get put on a list. You could lose your job due to societal pressures. Etc etc. It's just a risk measure we as Americans no do not accept.

    Justice? It's the government, man. The government decided, by virtue of committee, that what you said is badspeak. And thus the government assigns a government sponsored psychiatrist to assess you in a government controlled setting. Under the evaluation, you are deemed either fit or not. There is so much subjectivity in this course and law that it is absolutely impossible to NOT make comparisons to dystopian fiction.
  18. Oedipus Wreckx-n-Effect
    Yeah, it's ok because it's just the law. Makes perfect sense, Because law is perfect. The issue I have is that a government can force a psych eval. There is literally no guarantee that this eval will be nonbiased. I can imagine how our radical left would weaponize that shit at the drop of a hat. It's a wet dream for them. Especially given that psychology as a soft science exists in an academic vacuum. They wouldn't bring small business owner psychiatrists into the fray, that's for sure. So yes it's the law but it's a fuckin stupid law.

    A rare case of a woman shooter. Interesting.

    Suppressors are stupid easy to build.
  23. Oedipus Wreckx-n-Effect
    Nice. I'm excited to see where this goes, despite my idiotic jokes and rambling.

    Did you start with a sketch or jump right into stiffwerks??
