If you're implying that this means he'll suffer the "third strike" penalties, that's not how it works. It's past convictions, not simultaneous.

To be clear, the locked bracelet separates from the alarm so you can run away. You just have to find a firefighter afterward to unlock it.

Still a terrible idea, obviously.

The sunscreen in the eyes thing is actually a pretty good way to stop people staring at the eclipse.

When you're balled up on the ground squeezing your eyes shut in pain, it's pretty hard to stare up at the sky.

Hey, remember how Mnuchin's wife flipped out on some lady for being poor and being mad that she was flaunting her fancy poo poo?

The developer of Brigador is a secret chud, don't give him money
So here's some dumb nerd video game poo poo;
So semi-famous youtube people who made a mild career out of being obnoxious trolls in popular multiplayer game Overwatch are getting banned. For a while there's been this thing where people would just throw matches, encourage their fans to throw matches and generally just poo poo up the game's already dire competitive scene and Blizzard's finally started to ban people for it by giving them IP/Hardware bans so even if they make new accounts, they get banned after a few games anyway.

So here's a video of a guy crying that he gets banned every time he makes a new overwatch account he is apparently some kind of big name streamer or something? I don't know, but his fans have been pitching fits on a bunch of overwatch related sites lately claiming he's being banned for no reason, he's a good guy and did nothing to get banned! Keep in mind that every time he wants to make a new account he has to drop like forty bucks on the game I think? So he's after spending a couple hundred just to die on this stupid hill over whether or not encouraging his entire fanbase to ruin the competitive game mode was against the rules.

I mean, repeatedly attemping to interact with a person/company despite them making it clear they they don't want you to is harrassment. He's just got it backwards.

So, they set up a fake publishing company to sell a glorified movie script to themselves 18,500 times so they can claim they’re the “#1 NYT bestseller” to sell the script to some producer, and now the only evidence they have of this are a bunch of news articles saying exactly that.

quote:

When a group of far-right activists come to San Francisco to hold a rally this Saturday, they will be met by peace activists offering them flowers to wear in their hair.

Also, dog poo poo. Lots and lots of dog poo poo.

Hundreds of San Franciscans plan to prepare Crissy Field, the picturesque beach in the shadow of the Golden Gate Bridge where rightwing protest group Patriot Prayer will gather, with a generous carpeting of excrement.

“I just had this image of alt-right people stomping around in the poop,” Tuffy Tuffington said of the epiphany he had while walking Bob and Chuck, his two Patterdale terriers, and trying to think of the best way to respond to rightwing extremists in the wake of Charlottesville. “It seemed like a little bit of civil disobedience where we didn’t have to engage with them face to face.”

Tuffington, a 45-year-old artist and designer, created a Facebook event page based on the concept, and the dog owners of San Francisco responded in droves. Many have declared their intention to stockpile their shitpiles for days in advance, then deliver them in bags for the site. (The group is also planning to reconvene on Sunday to “clean up the mess and hug each other”.)

I really hope this goes off as planned!
