Chapter 3 Summary: T'Karra and Simmons end up in Simmons' quarters and they talk, in more than one way. Or you can start at the beginning.
Historian's Note: This story occurs in 2374, right around the time the Dominion captures Betazed.
Oh Skye and pre ghost rider Robbie I just know you would have loved each other

two decades later, Mama Vi still got it šŖš½
had a lot of fun mixing Cait and Vi's features (and their parents'!). Their names are Catherine (purple hair) and Clover (pink hair)! Catherine goes by Kit though, and she's 2 years older than Clover ^-^
Definitely want to explore this version of the Kiramman family in the future!
public defenders get behind me. iāll defend you this time
āso you like criminals?ā I LIKE THE RIGHT TO A FAIR TRIAL.
As the saying goes, the difference between having nothing and having a billion dollars is a billion dollars.
The difference between having a million dollars and having a billion dollars is also a billion dollars.
That million is 0.1% of the billion dollars; it's a literal rounding error.
One million seconds isĀ about 11.5 days.
One billion seconds is about 31 years and 8 months.
If you are on Linux you are better update your kernel RIGHT NOW.
my malware can have a little privilege escalation, as a treat.
CopyFail threatens multi-tenant servers, CI/CD work flows, Kubernetes containers, and more.
love too responsibly drop a 0day exploit without contacting distro maintainers
"coordinated disclosure" is when you hit "send" with your dominant hand
undiagnosed autistic people will be like "I don't get upset when my routine changes though!!" and it's because they've built a set of if-then loops in their head to pick from one of 6 different strict routines and they do get incredibly upset when they're unable to keep to any of the 6 scripts. I'm john normal
This is called a fault tree. You will always know how to act if your fault tree captures all possible scenarios. In NASA Mission Control during mission critical events like landings there are huge binders with fault tree protocols, kind of like choose your own adventure books except youāre not the one making the choices, the universe is making them for you and youāre just trying to keep up.
The engineers who develop fault trees, I am told, often imagine new ways for their precious spacecraft to die (new branches on the fault trees) either while in the shower or lying awake at 3am, because human
Was just thinking about this the other day. Yeah I have a favorite seat on the bus (middle of the bus, near the back doors, slightly elevated, facing forward), but I donāt get upset if someone is already sitting there, I just pick one of my other favorite spots. Then I realized that most people probably donāt have a favorite bus seat, let alone a series of backup favorites.
Reports emerge of Rep. Matt Sabourin dit ChoiniĆØre's efforts to insert Holocaust denial into the stateās public education guidelines, which
A Republican state lawmaker in New Hampshire partnered with a notorious German Holocaust denier in an effort to insert Holocaust denial into the stateās public education guidelines.
my general opinion on what people should be "allowed" to portray and what topics they should be "allowed" to explore in fiction is that you can make whatever art with whatever themes you want but i'm also allowed to think the way you handled it was tasteless and should've been done differently. my negative opinion on your handling of sensitive topics is the price of admission for publicly showcasing your work. this is not a pro-censorship stance because i am not The Government
this is getting really popular so iād like to add the important caveat that your criticism of a work is no more unassailable than the work itself. just as one is entitled to be critical of something someone else is entitled to disagree with that criticism. i add this because some of you pretend to give a fuck about thoughtful analysis and then when someone points out flaws in your argument you declare that all criticisms are valid. this is untrue. the status of a hater is no more sacred than that of a liker. get off your high horse and engage in the thoughtful discussion you pretend to believe in or perish by my blade
I watched some videos by that guy who set up a fake ICE hotline to get people to snitch on members of their community. Not only is this very real and useful praxis- he's preventing these ghouls from reaching the real ICE- he also handles the calls in a really amazing way.
For the most part, he doesn't make accusations or insults people, he just repeats back the appalling shit they're telling him. And they get fucking furious. The example that went viral was him fielding a call from a kindergarten teacher who wanted to report one of her student's parents.
This absolutely disgusting piece of shit thought that the parents were "illegals" who were "taking up resources" because they weren't born in the US. The child was a US citizen because he was born here, but she wanted the "ICE" agent to "look into it."
So this dude just starts repeating stuff back like "so you want me to load the parents of the 5-year-old child you teach into a van and deport them, right?" and this bitch has the gall to say "you make it sound terrible š " in a self-conscious way. And then when he finally makes a more direct insult by nonchalantly saying that the 5-year-old "must be a major threat to national security," she demands to speak to his supervisor (which he agrees to and then makes no effort to change his voice for lmao).
This is far from the only call where the whole "repeat their rhetoric back to them" tactic pisses the caller off, too. As rotten, immoral, and disgusting as these ghouls are, I believe there's a tiny part of them that is aware of how fucked up their beliefs and behavior are. Being forced to confront that leads to painful cognitive dissonance and they'd rather lash out at the person who criticized them than look inward and do some self-reflection. Forcing people to confront their own cognitive dissonance of "I'm a good person" clashing with "I have objectively gross and harmful beliefs" is useful, even if it will never go anywhere.
Something that also got me was how the teacher kept looking for OP to soothe and assuage her ego/conscience and got progressively more agitated when he wouldnāt. This is someone who desperately needs to think sheās a good person who is doing good things when what sheās doing is objectively heinous.
She thought she was in the right because she was trying to tear apart this family in a āpoliteā and indirect way. Sheās not the one holding a gun and herding people into an unmarked van, after all. The fact that her call would have directly led to that outcome doesnāt register as culpability to her until OP makes her connect the dots. THATāS why she got upset, because she was forced to acknowledge the blood on her hands.
