So one of my coworkers is busy seeing if she can get Stormtrooper costumes banned from our little halloween party. When I asked her why she told me it was because of Trump.
Coyly I said "Ohh, a 70 year old in a Stormtrooper outfit, I have to see that"
Then she went on a tyrade about how it was his son wearing a Stormtrooper costume and that I am stupid. ( Must not laugh, must not laugh, must not laugh in her face )
Yeah... I am going to keep playing dumb for a while. ( Just FYI, the kid in the costume was one of Ivanka Trump's kids, and they are all named Kushner, I do not know which kid it was tho. Pretty sure the kid would call Donald Trump "grandpa". Mark Hamill did a Tweet-papaya about it which made Mark look like quite the child-hater all because of politics... Damn politics... )Friday, 18-Oct-19 10:48:40 UTC from web- Jonathan Chouinard likes this.

@scribus Well, if I cut out all the nasty, it is not that nasty... ( wow, that might be the dumbest thing I have ever said )
But just think of the most stereotype "Hardcore Christian, hardcore recycle, 'My opinion is better than anyone elses'-spouting, knitting needles toting" mom you can think of.
Well, yeah, in that light it does not sound bad. Untill either of the following happens ;
A : Little Timmy discovers the Internet ( and search engines )
B : Vaccination rollout day at school ( because that is not a hot button topic in the modern world )
C : Little Timmy is not happy with the thick sheep-wool socks he got for his birthday ( Since Little Timmy wanted a NINTENDO SIXTYFOUR ( http://rainbowdash.net/url/875271 ) )Jonathan Chouinard likes this. -

@scribus Yes, I know what you mean. Everyone knows someone that will vaguely fit that description. Someone might even tell me that my description is wrong to an extent.

Ohhh, it is happening. Well it might has been happening for a long time now so who knows. There is verified evidence now that the so called 'top' of big multinationals, that being multinationals that do some form of reporting or journalism, have been swayed by their own content to believe that THEY are in the 'correct'. That is in a way 'falling for their own propaganda'
Now think of a big old steam engine that is failing to balance its own load. ( Rusty pressure valve readout or something ). It will eventually EXPLODE in a violent fashion.
I'm excited to see that mayhem.
Less so for the inevitable influx of hipsters who go "Yeah that is why I only get my news from small time actual reporters" ...

Meanwhile claiming that you should be able to seperate the things you love from the people who made it. While I agree fully, I can not help but to have 2 thoughts cross my mind.

The laptop I was going to use to properly use ( learn by using ) Linux on has a full hard drive and I am like 99.9% sure the propblem lies with Ubuntu's desire to create some sort of swap file on EXT1 for Gnome to start so the whole boot process halts indefinitely.

I had a dream in which a tomb on a Necron tomb world slowly opened slowly but surely, after the cover slid enough to the side a big blue hand emerged and opened the rest in a smooth swift move. It was Roboute Guilliman. Slowly but surely he revealed a book, which he swiftly ordered me to buy. But it was not the codex astartes. No it was even something more heinous.
And the only reason why I tell you all this is because I just found out it was more than just a precognitive dream, it was more of an actual clairvoyent dream. As I just found out that you-know-who has done you-know-what and just like in 2016, she has a book.Monday, 07-Oct-19 19:49:30 UTC from web- Jonathan Chouinard likes this.

@adiwan Oh him, yeah he is remarkably funny for a lawyer, explains it well too, however he can be a bit too far up his own butt to the point where you can hear an echo.
Unless if you think 'The Don' actually could be legally prosecuted under battery and assault for what happened in that deleted scene from Captain Marvel.
Especially in 1995, the jury would have a hard time to not laugh at him. That would be before the "Oh yeah, she did engage in physical bodily contact and then nearly broke and electrocuted his hand"
But I think we should just forgive Legal Eagle for being a near blind MCU fanboy, just point and laugh, especially with the after-credits thing he dunks home that is basically "Damn girl, you were terrible in EndGame" ( Just to remove the spoilers )Jonathan Chouinard likes this. -

@mrmattimation No ! That is where I **absolutely** draw the line.
Thinking stuff like that will only beget more trouble, if you are halfway kidding it would, if you are serious it definitely would.
If anything the Overton window is real and currently neo-nazi's are in the minority ( as they should be ) but so are AntiFa people ( especialy those who just seem to want to cause trouble and destroy property ). and I am GLAD that those are the extremes that a western nation is dealing with. Still though, they are quite extreme. Just to pull a quote that is not even 2 months old “I’m grateful this was largely a peaceful event,”, “We were preparing for and planning for a worst-case scenario.” that was Mayor Ted Wheeler
