black letter fourth amendment violation and any judge that does anything other than wipe their ass with the constitution should rule this illegal immediately

Make sure everyone at your job understands this
For once I'd like to see a sci-fi show that's like, "Yeah, this alternate reality version of one of our characters actually can stay here, and we'll just deal with the social ramifications of that in subsequent episodes."
"But what does that say about my job if a machine that's wrong 75% of the time can do for me and no one notices?"
Hi, you are participating in the most inefficient and needlessly cruel version of UBI possible.
Except Rand probably wants to do it the other way around, substitute Costco for the government (or probably something like Amazon, more likely)
it's that magical time of year again (my annual reposting of @wigu.org's cyber monday comic)
What a great headline
Socialism is what they called public power.
Socialism is what they called social security.
Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.
Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.
—Harry Truman, 1952
re: roblox dude's interview crashout. the thing he wants to say but can't is "at scale, kids are gonna get hurt. that is the price for scale." the thing nobody wants to say out loud is "maybe scaling to a level where harm isn't manageable is bad, and scale should be contained"
Also, it's not true, historically. Most people didn't get married until their twenties, and anything before that was normally a political marriage where they wouldn't consummate until they were of age or even actually live together until then.
"babies are born worshipping unknown gods" is one of the most incredible dwarf fortress bugs i have heard of. its poetry.
My last word on the matter
10/10 take. No notes.
What a banger
That's what I thought, and it makes sense since the first one is the only one that took place primarily on Earth, but it's been a while since I read them.
Was that from one of the Elijah Bailey books? I remember reading that as a kid and thinking, "This is cool, but probably not a good idea."
"I am openly defying a court order so I can starve children if Democrats don't let me take healthcare away from millions"
once again we are in 'too evil for a saturday morning cartoon' territory
Thanks for the description. From the name I just assumed he was some kind of standup comedian.
Also in D&D hell it's theoretically possible to move up in status so that it doesn't suck so bad for you, personally. Maybe not how that incentive structure should work, but it encourages them to torture other bad people, so I guess it works out in a utilitarian sense.
Was this originally about Middle-Earth and Valinor?
That's where lichdom comes in, though it doesn't help with the insanity
CHOTINER: So you asked for a Birkin bag?
KOKO: Yes. Possession Bag.
CHOTINER: And you had the funds to acquire this?
KOKO: No, Professor Purchase Koko Gorilla
CHOTINER: That doesn't sound like the funds were justifiable.
KOKO: Hostility Interviewer
It has gotten worse about doing the first part as time has progressed. But, importantly, it hasn't gotten much better at the second part, certainly not enough to recommend it over anything else, and the same goes for the third part.
The process of mummification involved removing the brain, so they can't be all that smart
I haven't looked into Mothership that deeply, but that is a weird one, considering that actual old D&D had stealth mechanics from early on, if not the beginning (not sure whether they had them before Thief was added). They weren't good, but at least they had them.
