/edit:
genuine question

I think baring a few exceptions we've all pretty much got the stupidest people running out countries. Funny how that's worked out.

I couldn't figure out how to bulk out last weeks time sheet. This'll solve everything.

Should start taking bets on if Mar A Lago gets wiped off the loving map.

I don't know how to feel about that, I've got a bunch of friends in Florida so I don't want the place wiped out. On the other hand, if that place specifically got wiped out I'd throw a party. I mean, scientifically, there isn't any reason the hurricane couldn't just sit and smash that and dissipate, I'll put my hopes on that.

Ignoring how dumb/bad all this is even without hindsight, in what world do civilians and coalition forces get nailed with chem/bio weapons and the civilian casualty count is 3,000 and the coalition casualty count is 15?

When my identity got stolen I got buzzed by my monitoring agency that work gives me (InfoArmor) and then Credit Karma about six hours later.

Now I've got a 7-year total freeze on all my reports, nobody can do anything on my credit report without my express permission. WHY ISN'T THIS THE DEFAULT THING.

It's cheaper this way. Although saying that, I bet you could make a fortune running the infrastructure to do it properly, so gently caress knows. Lazyness.

That was a good quote, but you really can't quote that without the rest


He was responding to criticism from the citizens of Atlanta who were (naturally) very upset that he planned to burn the city, and he basically said "You helped pursue this war, you helped supply the armies wrecked and burning in the North, and now that it is turned upon you, you cannot take it? Please."

Out of all the major players in the American civil war, he's the only one I'd like to meet. Probably call me an idiot.

That does suggest a really interesting way to attack him. Putting my mathematics hat on, urm, what if we took all the tweets / news he basically responds to like he's having a heart attack, and train a RNN bot to just post that at him on twitter. If I didn't have so much work to do today I'd be right on that. He can't not pay attention.

There you go, I believe I've described how to entirely legally decapitate the executive.

Give it a couple of weeks. There's bugger all footage to nail the government with because blatantly, everything has been knocked over / destroyed. This poo poo will come back to haunt him, unfortunately it'll take a shitload of people in PR being hosed and dying to do it.

How much of a loving nazi cop do you have to be to follow orders telling you to drag people out of polling stations? Jesus gently caress.

We have similar police in the UK, I know it's different in the US because everything is done state by state. Your normal UK cop is fine and would rather resign rather than pull that poo poo, then, we have the MET, the greater London force. You do not talk to them, look at them or breathe anywhere near them because they'll cave your face in and not care. I believe the Spanish version of the MET has been sent in by the government, this is a terrible mistake, but there you go.
