That’s why it should be held in VR.

I would suggest using robots, but we all know that destruction of corporate property would be considered even worse than chairing a human.

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

On the other hand, you won't ever have to pay a lawyer for weed charges, and quality controlled edibles kick rear end.

I went to a legal dispensary for the first time and the uniformed cop on the corner said "Have a good one." as I was leaving. Surreal.

That's actually a worthwhile subject to study. If Twitter banned the Nazis, the only remaining accounts would be about three users who haven't posted in six months, a few hundred Russian bots, some hentai artists, and dril. Besides, if we got rid of the Nazis, @Jack would have to start yet another social media network just so he and his friends can post.

Cops are probably capable of shooting up a school even without training

lol, they literally ban Nazi's in Germany because of the law there. The only reason they don't elsewhere is the fact that US politicians are Nazi's. That is literally the reason. Anything talking about how they're thinking about it is PR to distract you from the fact that they know how to ban them but won't.

I cannot throw away six pack rings without cutting them up because of images of animals strangled by them seen in the 4th grade.

If I see one uncut in the trash I will remove it and get it done.

Maybe it was a good kind of brainwashing but it was a brainwashing nonetheless and crazy powerful at that age.

Who could have possibly predicted that installing an internet-connected camera in your home would have a downside?

Ring camera installed in a children’s room for ‘peace of mind’ is hacked, 8-year-old daughter harassed

quote:

In a chilling exchange caught on video last week, the LeMays say the man was able to interact with their daughter after hacking into a Ring security camera that had recently been installed in the bedroom shared by Alyssa and her two younger sisters. Over the course of several minutes, the man repeatedly directed a racial slur at Alyssa and tried to persuade her to misbehave, according to a copy of the video obtained by The Washington Post.

Putting a spy camera in your own kids room is sadder than the creep hacking into it to scream racial slurs.

The mother worked the night shift as a hospital nurse or some poo poo like that which I am sure she wouldn't choose to do if we all didn't live in the shittiest possibly cyberpunk dystopia.

But it also sucks for these kids that their mom couldn't come up with a password better than password123 or hadn't reused a password from any number of regular data privacy leaks where the company/service stored everything in plain text.
