it would be hilarious is someone made the clock run five minutes late.

I was talking about the rug.

of course the cat is trying to kill him. or maybe her. probably both.

Tripping hazard.

Pretty sure Bitty only has “best features”.

And no, she’s not bribing me to say that.

Tastes like mint frosting.

They didn’t even really throw her out until she got salty over not running for senate (which they told her ‘no’ cuz she’d have lost.)

…. Slight differences in pronunciation….

Body cameras aren’t going to solve this, anyway.

one of which is absolutely going to be getting revenge.

just as soon as it figures out the whole thumb’s and can opener thing.

They’re gonna need more than a moment to unpack their own lies about it.

“I feared for my safety so I wasted that [Insert derogatory adjetive][insert derogatory noun]”

Maybe don’t do chaos, huh.

Minnesota Nice? Fuck ICE!

The point of the tactic (part of the Reid technique,) isn’t to get evidence. It’s to get a confession.

The problem is it works by scaring the shit out of the subject in the hopes that they confess to the first person to show some sympathy.

Which, it does work. People subjected to it will eventually confess. The problem is… they may not have actually done it and they’re afraid of all the things bad cop is threatening them with.

It’s also very easy to manipulate someone’s understanding of what happened when they’re in the high stress of an aggressive interrogation.

And just for the record- the cops are allowed to lie to you (at least in the us.), so they can tell you they have evidence they don’t have etc. which is why you need to avail yourself of a lawyer… and say nothing to them.

a moth.

the computer was a Harvard Mark II, though it should be noted that “bug” was used in engineering to refer to flaws in machines since before electronic computers existed, so it might not be the origin, but it’s the first time someone logged finding a bug in a computer,

This is why cops always go with bad cop worse cop.

In the spirit of “if you can’t fix it, feature it”, the code does have impeccable error recovery,

Cats are liquid.

Agreed. Totally agree.

If only one side ever compromises, it’s not compromise, it’s capitulation.

I’m more in the way of limiting expectations as well as pointing out that every measure, every appointment, every vote is a new battle.

We’re in the place we are because dems have been capitulating for as long as I’ve been voting (longer, probably.)

(I may be pissed at klobechar for voting to confirm appointments.)

Edit to add: maybe they shouldn’t have voted to approve cloture, hmmm?

Just a side note- ICE/BPC is fully funded through the Big Bullshit Bill, so shutting the gooberment down won’t stop the madness.

Preferably in a ship built by amazon warehouse laborers.
