Yeah, I'm already extremely suspicious at the convenience of his arrest, given that there has to be a repercussion shown to the 'plebs' - can't have them getting ideas now about the ease with which they could depose their ruling oligarchs and actually get away with it.
I didn't know about those details regarding the evidence being planted, so his statement makes much more sense with that context, thank you.
I'm unsure if he means his arrest is unjust due to the order of magnitude worse injustice of the healthcare system or Luigi stating he's not the culprit (vigilante, hero, The Adjuster - whatever noun floats your boat).
It seems like the former? Annoyingly unclear.
That's brilliantly told.
I think the problem here is the concurrent effects of climate change. The US couldn't have picked a worse time to move from flirting with facism to full-on marrying it.
You can deal with one crisis if you're coordinated enough but the chaos that's already occurring with the climate - and is set to become exponentially worse - doesn't give me much hope for a harmonious conclusion to this. Obviously, I hope I'm wrong and you're right.
Very true. There's also the issue of giving birth. Women would have to be spun around like salad in a spinner in order to simulate Earth gravity but I imagine that's a perk for Elon.
The reason you're not ever living on Mars is that it has no magnetosphere. Good fucking luck surviving any length of time with constant ionising radiation slapping the shit out of your DNA. This fact alone should have shut down any discussion of feasibility about colonising Mars.
Although it does make the three-titted chick from Total Recall way more realistic.
The craziest thing about that is there's a video documenting the whole thing. It's on YouTube and well worth watching; probably one of the first, if not the first televised coup.
Saddam nonchalantly smoking a cigar while the auditorium's mood goes from confused to hysterical is something to behold. Properly chilling.
Found a clip narrated by the much missed Christopher Hitchens: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=CR1X3zV6X5Y
The second last time I went to a dentist, he told me I had been brushing my teeth wrong. Cool, bought the TeethIoniser5000 plus recommended toothpaste from his suggestion.
Last time I went to the dentist, he told me that I was still brushing my teeth wrong. "But the last guy?"
"Wrong. He was wrong."
Every fucking dentist has told me whatever way I brush my teeth, I'm doing it wrong, so fuck them. Now I just use my finger.
Don't do that, as I have one tooth left I use to open cans.
A fellow wonk, I see. "They burn to the fucking ground, Eddie"
I'm genuinely thankful you've made it this obvious how much of a fucking moron you are as I can block you immediately and get on with my day.
They would just claim it was to 'make the them look bad' or something similar. That's the beauty of bullshit; it's like a perpetual avalanche. It's overwhelming and incredibly difficult to counter.
