TheBacon posted:I would consider being anti abortion pretty abhorrent so really the whole platform is just abhorrent It's not like the rest of the platform is any less abhorrent. They're still trying to redefine marriage as het-only, for gently caress's sake. Although it's kinda darkly hilarious right now because they opted not to do a new platform this year, so the current one is full of potshots at 'The Current Administration'.

Humphreys posted:The van and mini are probably waiting for parts. I have on my personal rotation at least 5 projects I'm filming/shooting at any one time due to my gently caress ups or lack of parts locally sourcable. Yeah, Binky's shell is out for paint, then they have the 'this took weeks to film' part of redoing all the wire management when she gets back. The escargot is at the stage where they're mostly done with demo and now need to have a long think about how to put it back together.

meatpimp posted:I had a bat show up in my last house two times. They are loving creepy because they are silent. Like... eerily silent. A Model 3 would be cool... if it were made by a company that is likely to exist and provide parts support 10 or 15 years down the road when it starts needing major work. Tesla as a company is destined to fail, hopefully they exist long enough to drag the major automakers into deciding that electric vehicles should be mainstream... and our entire power infrastructure changes to allow for it. Krakkles posted:I believe I’m supposed to laugh at the idea of needing a license Only if it's free, shall-issue, and doesn't include the ability for the police to swing by and 'inspect your storage' at their leisure. I distinctly remember what a good ol' boys clusterfuck may-issue carry permits were here, and giving police a pass on probable cause to enter and 'coincidentally' find a reason to search someone's house for drugs is never, ever a good thing.

Ferremit posted:I’ve had the cops do a firearms inspection on my place and it was a totally painless experience. They just wanted to know that my firearms are in a safe, not just laying around, that the keys aren’t kept in plain sight and no one else knows where they are and that your stuff is actually stored properly. Yeah, this is the US, where cops shoot dogs as a matter of course and get caught planting drugs on their body camera feeds. Would I trust my safety for a podunk county sheriff's deputy to drop by and check on my safe, out here in flyover country, population two cows and an infinite amount of corn? Sure. Would I trust that to be universal among every person and law enforcement department in the country? gently caress no. Rhyno posted:An equal amount of dipshits are obsessed with the hero fantasy. They honestly think they will save the day if poo poo goes down. People who open carry outside of stuff like hunting shouldn't be carrying at all. The point of carrying a defensive firearm is that it is a tool of last resort, and nobody knowing you have it unless you need it is a big part of how you keep situations from escalating such that violence gets involved. The real first line of defense is knowing how to avoid bad situations and when to walk away.

STR posted:Brief jump into the religion chat. I was raised Baptist. Went full atheist for a long time. Consider myself agnostic today, but occasionally attend a Unitarian Universalist church (with COVID, it's been via FB Live), and have been (off and on) for several years now. The one near my first place in the Austin area didn't quite feel right for me, but the big UU church in Austin feels like home (there's a third here that I haven't been to). The one near where I went to university near DFW was pretty great. Joke's on us, Bezos 'drives' that car in as much as he could notionally drive it, but does most of his travelling by private plane. He keeps it for the optics. Jeff Bezos doesn't pop down to the corner store for a loaf of bread and dozen eggs without a security team in tow.

Krakkles posted:I mean, you're probably right. I was knocked off my motorcycle by a car ~10 years ago (dang, time flies...) and my shoulder still aches when it gets even a little cold. Like, Southern California "a little cold". Yup. My bad knee is like that. Just kinda 'this is how it is now', because it's never going back to what it was.

Kazinsal posted:Anyone wanting to "get into" anime without getting into anime so to speak should go watch Cowboy Bebop. It's not that "anime" at all, is a good science fiction show, is only one season, and despite being from the late 90s the English dub is so good that the creator of the show thinks it's excellent. It stars Steve Blum, who has an extremely prolific career as a voice actor and is probably best known as the animated voice actor for Wolverine since the late '00s, as well as being the voice of Toonami. If you've played a voice acted AAA videogame in the last 15 years you know Steve Blum's voice. Dude is incredibly prolific. 64bit_Dophins posted:If you're looking for anime to watch check out Gunsmith Cats and Cyber City Odeo The artist behind GSC, Kenichi Sonoda, has a new OVA coming out soon set in a version of the same universe as well. Dunno if the plots going to be any good, but his obsessive level of detail on guns and cars should make it watchable. Liquid Communism fucked around with this message at 09:38 on Oct 26, 2020 |
