It should be real easy to prove a relationship in this day and age with social media. I might be wrong but I think he's admitted he hit her but alleges that she hit him first.

I'm not under any illusions about M4A becoming reality tomorrow, but a lot of these reps are owned by insurance and pharma correct? She's not going to cave to these idiots at worst she's going to give them a weasel-rear end assurance then ignore them once they've done what she wanted, same as she'd do to progressives trying to hold her up.

Lightning Knight posted:What exactly should we do? This is a genuine question, I assume the answer is “stop all weapons sales and maybe also sanctions” but I see a lot of leftist argumentation against sanctions as a tool and it’s not clear to me why. I know it has something to do with them being ineffective? Or maybe targeting the poor? I see a lot of reference to Iraq in the 90s. Sanctions definitely 'work' in that they can drive the target country into ruin but the fuckers in charge aren't going to be that materially impacted by it, since they'll just steal even more from their own people to make up for whatever part of the sanctions targets them specifically instead of the country. Not selling them weapons would be a great start. If Trump hadn't re-hosed things up with Iran we could start making noise that maybe we like them more than the Saudis now.

The problems arise with people who want to make that coming and going unnecessarily restrictive.

It sounds like a lot of the dick-tripping is the Kool Kollusion Klub deciding to claim they were not places they provably were. Well and just in general being poo poo at making the sort of misleading but technically true statements you need for the game they were trying to run with Manafort to work. And yeah people who are conservative can be funny. It can even sort of come up during the humor, because poking fun at yourself is always a thing. For example, Mike Nelson has a book of short things called Mind Over Matters where you see some vague Midwesterny conservatism in some of the topics but they're pretty universally self-directed or clearly just jokes.

Pellisworth posted:Seismologists do indeed estimate how much strain energy has accumulated on specific portions of faults. The longer there isn't a major earthquake on that section, the more stress accumulates and the likelier a big earthquake becomes. Sure, theoretically you could release that energy in a billion tiny earthquakes that cause no damage, but that's not plausibly likely. And since the fault's a really complicated system where strain is constantly moving around as each tiny slip and small quake happens. To make things even more annoying, while we can measure 'strain', we don't have any way to translate that into anything more actionable than 'an earthquake is probably getting closer to happening'.

I mean without engineers you never get from 'I got this to work in a lab' to 'now this is a thing that can benefit humanity' and without the people in said labs the engineers just sit around making trebuchets and stills so we can get drunk off our asses then launch things or possibly die horribly when something goes terribly wrong.

Pellisworth posted:I think the main thing Owlofcreamcheese is missing is that unlike storms or floods, earthquakes are caused by fault systems that are accumulating strain until a big quake releases it. Yeah just in general a big part of the earthquake problem is that what we can measure here from the surface is nowhere near enough information to do real time predictions and likely never will be.

It is legitimately a huge shame that Manchin is so successfully bought out by the money the shambling corpse of the coal industry still has in their decrepit bank accounts because short of Congress outlawing all other forms of energy including forcing poors to pedal on bicycles to generate electricity then burning them for more energy after they keel over coal is dead as loving disco.

I mean back in the day there wasn't an obvious subset of weirdos who were also hurting people because the closest Nazis got to being bold enough to come out in the open were some KKK rallies a couple times a year and they pretty much make fun of themselves. Now we've got the Nazis and Nazi-adjacents and people who are kind of strange but aren't hurting anyone are refreshing potential allies.

Wylie posted:The single easiest way to piss off a bald eagle is to let it see you trying to reach behind it. They have almost 360-degree vision, and if they lose sight of you in that direction, it freaks them the gently caress out. I mean fucker won't listen to anyone so of course he didn't listen to how you don't agitate the eagle. It's never given him any negative consequences in the past to ignore everyone, after all. He didn't bother to consider that this time he could've lost some loving fingers because that eagle doesn't give a poo poo that you're rich and powerful. This is also reminding me of a great image of someone who found the most majestic way to ruin his truck, he was up in Alaska and had a bunch of fish guts in something in the bed and whoops like ten Bald Eagles landed on it while he was in a WalMart or something and they absolutely hosed the exterior between scratching the paint up and monster bird shits.

Skippy McPants posted:Oh, it's definitely the second one. If there's one thing we can be sure of at this point, it's that Louis C.K. sucks at curtailing his negative impulses, and you're not wrong about it being the end of his mainstream career. The natural progression, though, is that he'll attract a lot of attention from all the usual suspects who think "PC/Shaming culture has gone too far!" and they'll be happy to shovel money into his pockets. I think the only open question is whether or not he's critical enough to realize what's happening and be disgusted by it, or if he's so well-insulated that he can cognitive dissonance his way out of caring that worthless shitlords have become his core audience. I mean even if you used to find him funny he's always been sort of a worthless shitlord himself so this is sadly probably just a natural progression.
