This commercial for Charmin Ultra-Strong has horrifying implications.

The fact that there is a security checkpoint for the bear airport (or should I say, bearport) implies that there are certain bears who have malicious intent to blow up the bearplanes.  There are bearrorists in this universe that aspire to destroy things that these ass-wiping mammals hold near and dear.

Why not have the Surgeon General head this up?

Actual quote by Republican congressman, Jason Chaffetz (R-UT) complaining about the lack of a Surgeon General to combat Ebola in the United States, while conveniently omitting the fact that, led by Rand Paul, conservatives, Libertarians and Republicans blocked President Obama’s Surgeon General nominee —because guns

You should recognize the m.o. by now:

Step 1. intentionally break the government’s ability to act more effectively by blocking nominees and/or cutting funding

Step 2. blame someone else

Step 3. complain about how ineffective the government is right after being the cause of said ineffectiveness…just like with Benghazi

It should also be noted (with no small irony) that these are the very same conservatives who, when asked about climate change will swiftly respond, “I’m not a scientist" but when fear-mongering about Ebola, neocons like Rand Paul have absolutely no problems with telling flat out lies

This is a conservative tactic. Government is not dysfunctional. Republicans are. If the government is broken, it’s because Republicans broke it. On purpose. To prove government is dysfunctional

YES! So glad I'm not the only one saying it anymore

“A villain is just a victim whose story hasn’t been told.”

[zarabithia12365-deactivated2022]

Why is this one of the things recommended for me on my dash.

There’s so much wrong with this.

1. The quote is bullshit, and indicative of everything terrible about our society, which constantly puts the pain of the abuser above those they abuse. 

2 It also grossly furthers the idea that all victims are potential abusers. Which has real life ramifications, because this is actually something that survivors of child abuse fear and one of the reasons they do not always come forward.

3. Bucky has no goddamn business being in this set. He wasn’t a villain. He actually was a victim.

4. We saw Anakin’s story. We KNOW his story. Cool story, bro, but you still murdered children. You are not now and never shall be a fucking victim, but those babies were, so fuck you and fuck your defenders and especially fuck anyone who would think that you are a goddamn victim.

5. We know Magneto’s story intimately. It has been told often. He was a victim once. And then he decided that Genocide was okay. 

6.  Fuck Fake White Khan and we do in fact know Real Khan’s story. He did think he was a victim, but no, he was not. He was a complicated and amazing villain that went against the typical type of POC villains that we get - he was brilliant and clever and not just a “thug.” But he was not a victim (no, not even after the neighboring planet went boom.) 

7. We know Loki’s story too. It’s one of a whiny spoiled brat who keeps trying to commit genocide. 

tldr: Bucky has no business being in this set. The rest of these people are murderous terrible people. They are not victims, though some of them were once.

The California Supreme Court has ruled that the silence of suspects can be used against them.

Wading into a legally tangled vehicular manslaughter case, a sharply divided high court on Thursday effectively reinstated the felony conviction of a man accused in a 2007 San Francisco Bay Area crash that left an 8-year-old girl dead and her sister and mother injured.

Richard Tom was sentenced to seven years in prison for manslaughter after authorities said he was speeding and slammed into another vehicle at a Redwood City intersection.

Prosecutors repeatedly told jurors during the trial that Tom’s failure to ask about the victims immediately after the crash but before police read him his so-called Miranda rights showed his guilt.

Legal analysts said the ruling could affect future cases, allowing prosecutors to exploit a suspect’s refusal to talk before invoking 5th Amendment rights against self-incrimination.

"It’s a bad and questionable decision," said Dennis Fischer, a longtime criminal appellate lawyer.

Tom’s attorney Marc Zilversmit said he is deciding whether to petition the U.S. Supreme Court to take up the issue or renew his arguments in the state court of appeal.

"It’s a very dangerous ruling," Zilversmit said. "If you say anything to the police, that can be used against you. Now, if you don’t say anything before you are warned of your rights, that too can be used against you."

The state Supreme Court in a 4-3 ruling said Tom needed to explicitly assert his right to remain silent — before he was read his Miranda rights — for the silence to be inadmissible in court.

So.... You have to invoke your right in order to use it? I thought the whole point of "rights" was to have then no matter what...
