In theory I agree with the sentiment, but then I imagine the same people who’re supposed to be keeping oil pipelines from rupturing put in charge of nuclear materials.

One causes more of the other.

Curiosity Show is a goddamned treasure. I will never get tired of these clips.

I’ve always loved that about him.

It’s a security blanket, and if someone is clinging to it that gives you a good idea of their emotional age.

Specifically, they reject the whole concept of modernity, along with everything it brings.

It’s also important to point out that “not guilty” is only a legal distinction.

Acquittal doesn’t mean proved innocent. It only means not proven guilty beyond reasonable doubt.

The need to assume innocence until proven guilty is a legal one only.

Plus we’re talking about things which are by their nature very difficult to prove. It’s literally one person’s word against another. Or in this case, nine people’s word against one. All that this ruling tells us is that there was insufficient evidence to convict him beyond a reasonable doubt.

This is also a great zero-stakes way for the government to pretend they are listening and actually care about something, because they are all pretty well assured that nothing said here will negativity affect anyone’s reelection campaign.

They don’t know anything, and they know nobody else knows anything. There is nothing to be lost politically by spending time on this. If anything it’s probably a nice break for most of them to focus on something with almost no chance of repercussions.

Stop punishing the responsible kids for the shitty behavior of the others. Blanket bans and zero tolerance policies are the tools of tiny minds.

This is just water? I mean, I still won’t buy it, because shipping water in packaging to places where there is a perfectly good supply of water on tap is wasteful as fuck. They’ve at least got the right idea using aluminum, which is much easier to recycle. And this marketing is hysterical.

Edit: on further investigation they sell flavored sparkling water, so it’s like LaCroix? Well hell. I’m sure it still tastes like the ghost of a berry, but my kids love that stuff for some reason, and it beats buying soda.

It’s the usual reason fundamentalists get violent toward women and gay men: they’re aroused, but aren’t allowed to express it.

Every time someone posts the original I have to watch it all the way through, and it always improves my day.

In this specific case, they both lost to the mudslide.
