An acquittal is jury nullification. The jury decides “yeah, they probably did it, but this is some bullshit” and votes not guilty.

Yeah exactly. The only reason they would choose to heavily react the files and refuse to release others is because the contents of those files is absolutely decision to Trump. Paul acts like they’re just accidentally covering this up.

“Let me be very clear, we need a full release,” Khanna said.

Hehehehehehehe

The photo was a result of a bunch of jokes that spawned from the email from Epstein’s brother asking him if Putin had the “pictures of Trump blowing Bubba”.

I had a roommate in college that always called it “lazy bitch the Susan”. I don’t know why, but that stuck and it’s what my wife and I have called it ever since.

I saw an article somewhere that pointed out the Hallmark movie formula is targeted at empty nester moms with daughters. It’s their fantasy that their daughter, who has left home to find fulfillment in a career will come back home and fall in love with a local boy, realize that moving to the city was a mistake, and settle down in their home town (near their mother).

Kinda sad when you realize that’s why they’re so successful.

Renoir’s battle theme is the best song I have ever heard in a video game before. For a while, my YouTube algorithm was taken over by streamer reactions to hearing that song for the first time in game, because universally people were just stunned like “holy shit this is amazing”.

Yeah the game is just straight up amazing. I laughed because I saw an article about the streamer, Shroud, complaining about how Expedition 33 shouldn’t have won because Arc Raiders was so great - but then admitted he hasn’t played Expedition 33.

Did they remove that feature that told everyone most MAGA mouthpieces were foreign actors?

Jesus the quotes in this article are a real bleak loom into how fucked we are as a country:

“Some will say these maps are political. Let me be clear,” Sen. Chris Garten ®, another backer, said as he slapped the lectern. “You’re God damn right they are!”

and also:

“President Trump has made it clear to Indiana leaders: if the Indiana Senate fails to pass the map, all federal funding will be stripped from the state,” Heritage Action wrote on X. “Roads will not be paved. Guard bases will close. Major projects will stop. These are the stakes and every NO vote will be to blame.”

I’ve noticed that most people are barely computer literate and don’t understand when you try to explain the difference between something like a shortcut and computer virus.

I actually dodged a bullet like that myself once. I used SMTP to send an email with a spoofed “from” address and got accused of hacking into someone’s email account. I lucked out that I got to plead my case with someone who understood networking.

Yeah smoke bombs were the only thing I recall that wouldn’t land you in jail.

In a sane world, this would be a no brainer and he would actually be put on trial for murder. Alas, that is not this world. I doubt Hegseth with face any serious consequences.

Lol that is the exact same thing that happened to him. He said he fucked up the temperature and ignited it.

Somehow, he DIDN’T get in a ton of shit for it. The teachers and fire department didn’t figure out it was an intentional smoke bomb. So they never questioned him about it. He dodged a bullet for sure! That was pre-9/11 and Columbine, so I’m sure kids in a similar situation today would be absolutely fucked.

My friends and I downloaded the Anarchists cookbook off of a BBS (we’re old as shit now) when we were kids. One of the things in there was how to make a smoke bomb, which sounded harmless enough but also contained chemical ingredients that we didn’t have access to.

Then one of my buddies moved away and at his new school, they had a chemistry lab. His dumbass got ahold of these chemicals and made the bomb in class - except he fucked up a step and it started smoking immediately.

It wasn’t just a little bit of smoke, it was a shit load. He said smoke started pouring out at a crazy rate. They ended up evacuating the school thinking the building had caught fire.

This is the dumbest meme I have ever made. My apologies.

The perfect accessory for when your whole family thinks you’re an asshole and you have no friends.
