Still no justice for Breonna Taylor, et al., but it's a start.

Let's see if he only gets 11 months like Oscar Grant's killer.

So how about that Afghanistan.
What a clusterfuck of epic proportions. Biden being Trumpian with the way that exit is going.

Also what a fucking waste of money and lives this was.

Takeaway lesson is that if you want to kill someone, you just have to escalate the conflict and then you face no punishment for any crimes you commit up to that point.

It's been that way for cops for a while, but now that privilege has been extended to fuckwits of all stripes. Well, all white stripes.

Re: Live Action Cowboy Bebop

I have several thoughts about it, but foremost is this:
More like "see you terrestrial cowboy."

Canada releases 50 million pounds from maple syrup reserve amid global shortage
The Biden administration is trying to reign in gas prices by releasing oil from the US strategic reserve — but a different sticky supply situation north of the border has spurred Canadians to tap their emergency stockpile of maple syrup amid a major shortage of the sweet stuff.

Climate Change cutting into maple syrup supplies :boo

SG: Afterlife will have lots of fan service. Tons of riffs about teknaflowne most likely.

Also, it might be days for someone far enough from the conflict. Like Garbo. Maybe we'll find out he won on his birthday.

I was reading something about counter-protestors invading their communications channels and spamming them with fake information and something called "Ram Ranch".

Edit: sounds like a couple participants were Canadian soon to be ex-military.

Everyone's been waiting eagerly for Trudeau to say the line. I don't think he did though. ;(

:l I've read 2-3 different twitter threads of moles reporting on the sekrat (aka public and accessible) channelz. It's hilarious and the mindset of the truckers is about what you would expect (ie: never being confronted with a life that isn't completely catered to /you/). They are easily trolled. They call the trolls "rammers" and think that they were hired by the government to troll them. Several trolls have played the long game and infiltrated the mod teams at various times.

I listened to one of them while doing dishes yesterday.
The chat was setup by trolls, and I think a couple of truckers went in for a while, but it quickly devolved in people doing their comedy bits.

Most of us most of the time.

Since when do French Canadians say "y'all"?
