And as other people have said it's not a trend, it's a dumb video one kid made that's probably now going to become a trend after the media have blown it up. But there has to be some way we can curtail someone who is abusing the freedom to this extent, though again I am not suggesting you should come up with a complete solution. CBOs do seem poo poo though. fuctifino posted:They're saying the quiet bit out loud again Clicked on this and was glad to see people calling him a oval office and saying it's good that we pay.

Mega Comrade posted:It's a trend with his person though. Isn't it just basic sentencing guidelines? Like you shoplift some earrings from Claire's Accessories, you might get a more lenient sentence if you say you learned your lesson and you'll never do it again. Next time you do it, you don't have the "first offense" excuse and you get a harsher punishment. All these "the police need more powers to deal with scary new threat" stories always feel like the police always have plenty of powers to deal with the "new threat" because the "new threat" isn't all that new. They're just an excuse to allow the police to harrass people they don't like with even less oversight than before.

Being an obnoxious oval office for social media likes in and of itself isn’t breaking the law, so there’s not really a ‘sentencing guideline’ for it.

When it comes to things like civil trespass through an open door, or one off 'bants' behaviour towards several different women on the street, there's not much that they can do that wouldn't fall apart instantly. When that becomes enough of a pattern of behaviour to constitute abuse of the community, you can either criminalize the individual behaviour (i.e. pass legislation banning everyone from doing it) or individualize the criminal behaviour (i.e. make it a matter of law for that person not to do it again). Either are open to abuse of power in similar structural ways, because it's the same group of notably biased people enforcing it.

I remember those orange powder paints used to be made of tartrazine and azorubine, but then there was the big moral panic about kids turning into hyperactive demons and getting infinite cancer. I'm not sure what the new ones are but the closest plant dyes are turmeric and saffron, and if anyone was going to pay extra for dyes not made out of petrochemicals it'd probably be those types.

Jaeluni Asjil posted:Found! The Woke Blob When I was 12 my parents took me on holiday to Egypt and I did my first scuba diving outside Britain. My dad had been winding me up with talk of stingrays and sharks and all the other interesting and lethal fish out there- being an anxious child I was therefore pretty damned nervous the first time I stepped off the boat. I was bobbing in the water waiting for everyone else to join me when I felt a tugging on my fin and looked down. There was one of these ugly fuckers tugging on it. It was absolutely bloody massive and apparently was regularly fed eggs by divers, so had come to me on the beg. I jumped out of my skin, but chilled out once this was explained. The big guy hung out with us the entire dive- it was really cool.

Seems like that'd be against any social media's TOS Social media companies gotta define bad stuff before they can ban it: how could you write a rule for a human or machine content moderator to apply based on “being a prick in a way that’s juuust short of being directly criminal”? They can and maybe will act once the news picks it up but until then it seems like it would get lost in the tide of content. Relatedly, I think “content moderator for Facebook/TikTok/social media” has got to be one of the toughest jobs out there.

Seems like they had a very long notice to evacuate if possible . But I appreciate JA's earlier post about how difficult it can be to actually get to an embassy/airport in time. And obviously people have unknowable commitments to their homes regardless of what passports they hold.

But I appreciate JA's earlier post about how difficult it can be to actually get to an embassy/airport in time. And obviously people have unknowable commitments to their homes regardless of what passports they hold. Exactly. It can be so hard for people who have never experienced this to begin to understand the difficulties in actually reaching evacuation points if you don't live pretty much adjacent the airport. I said to my family at the time "If the British govt care about me that much they can send a helicopter to my garden" because the likelihood of me being able to actually get to the airport to meet an evacuation flight was approaching nil. And that was living the approx distance of Walthamstow to Heathrow from the airport. You're totally reliant on local people willing to put themselves into potentially very dangerous situations (at extremely high cost when you may not actually be able to get any money to pay them) with loyalties you don't know, to help you out. And given we have now all seen just how much the British govt has no interest in helping locals who have put themselves in danger to assist the Brits (whether or not you agree with what the Brits were doing out there), any help is likely to be far less forthcoming in future. (Meandering aside: I've kinda just realized that every time anyone pushes my 'revolution' button, I write screeds of stuff - deleted before posting as I've said it all before - or bang on for ages (if in the pub) so even though I don't think I was overly affected by the events of 2011-2013, because it was relatively clean as these things go, I obviously was more affected that I realized. I seem to have a need to keep talking about it. Hm. Maybe a little insight on my part into understanding trauma / PTSD.) Jaeluni Asjil fucked around with this message at 11:58 on May 26, 2023 |
