The second of the three gamer chuckleheads who conspired to SWAT another gamer, but ended up killing an innocent Kansas man has been sentenced for his role to 15 months in prison.

(The guy who actually called in the SWATTting got 20 years.)

You might recall this guy as "the slowest dope" bc his first reaction upon hearing of the death was that reporters were getting the story wrong BC, dammit, he *won* that CoD match.
"Hopefully you didn't say anything stupid."

Viner: "I did. I literally said you're gonna be swatted. Not thinking at all, so I'm going to prison."

Well, he got that part right.

Supreme Court of California finds the state law (directed at Trump) requiring candidates to disclose their tax returns to appear on the ballot is unconstitutional under the state constitution. courts.ca.gov/opinions/docum…
Bottom line:
Indeed, that would probably be the obvious next step. California, nearly unique among states, allows voters to modify their constitution by popular vote.

It's one of the reasons California's constitution is so dang long.

In the face of NSC staffer's under-oath statements that this anonymously-sourced article is incorrect about a Ukrainian plot to influence 2016, GOP response is that the author stands by it.

Guys, I have no doubt that Vogel was told these things. The NSC says they're not true.
Based on testimony of the NSC witnesses, what happened here is apparently Vogel's source (Lutsenko?) spun him a yarn, and he printed it. That's reporting.

Pretending that an anonymous and unverifiable article is true in the face of contrary testimony from our own IC is silly.
And that's where we are right now. The GOP would prefer to accept the anonymous word of unknown Ukrainians over the assessment of the U.S. intelligence community bc that's the only story that protects Donald Trump.

Much patriotic.

Secret Santa is stupid, and who needs one more thing to worry about.

It doesn't need to be a federal case though. Just the Youths replacing the Olds should take care of the problem.
I absolutely adore the Boomers tonight acting like adding one more obligation at work isn't anything to worry about.

Like, have you been to work?
Oh, I get it. Maybe work was easier for you.

Oooooooh.

I've started a collection of great opening lines, and I thought I'd start a thread and add to it over time. Feel free to add your favorites too! (I haven't read all the books and stories; some I found on lists of great first lines.) >>>

1/ Yesterday a girl set herself on fire! Her name is Sahar.
Sahar is 22 years old and her crime is entering the stadium to watch the game by the team she loves. Women in Iran are not allowed to enter the stadiums and watch the matches.👇
2/ After she was arrested and sentenced to six months in prison, she committed suicide!
She stated the she couldn’t go to jail, because she knows what happens to women in #prison in #Iran.
Now she is severely burned and she may not survive.👇
3/ @FIFAcom, you also responsible for the cruelty to Iranian women like Sahar. Your silence and connivance towards gender apartheid and the constant violation of FIFA statutes in Iran is not acceptable!

Leaders of the #ProudBoys are telling troops in the lead up to a far-Right rally in #Portland on August 17th, ironically against "domestic terrorism," to "tone down" threats of violence + murder on social media in wake of visit from the FBI. A thread. itsgoingdown.org/proud-boy-lead…
After a month of making clear + direct threats of violence + even murder against the public in #Portland, leaders of the #ProudBoys in #Florida are now urging those on the far-Right to "tone down" rhetoric online following a string of mass shootings. Organizer Joe Biggs explains:
#ProudBoys claim to be rallying in #Portland against "domestic terrorism" of antifascists, who have killed no one. Since Unite the Right, which the Proud Boys helped organize and attended, 73 people have been killed by white nationalists + the far-Right. adl.org/blog/two-years…

So, Kodak is weird. And a particular way they are weird has to do with the
International Fixed Calendar, as developed by Moses Cotsworth in 1902.
It's a calendar designed to be maximally compatible with the standard Gregorian while also fixing many of the problems of it.
So it's a 13-month calendar. All the standard English months plus the month of Sol, inserted between June and July.
All months are 4-weeks long, and start on a Sunday.
So this has the nice property that a given date is always the same day of the week. January 8th is a Sunday, and is always a Sunday no matter what year it is, or if it's a leap year, or anything.

Do arrange marriages still work in this age? Especially when the people involved are complete tangents?

Baekhyun is a laid back easy-going person living his life 1 day at a time, where as Chanyeol has every day until the next year already planned.

Catastrophe?
~ The first meeting ~
12:13 Pm.

The guy was 13 minutes late was all that Chanyeol could think of when he continued wiping the already clean screen of his wrist watch.

He had only placed aside an hour for this meeting and 13mins were already wasted this meant that he'd have to push back a few things.
