--- Log opened Mon Jun 27 00:00:25 2022 06:07 <@Dolemite> mr0ning, be0tches and h0ez! 06:25 <@Dolemite> The new Buc-Ee's in Crossville opened up, today. Now I'm only an hour away from on-demand beaver nuggets. 06:48 <@Dolemite> Not that driving an hour is worth it for novelty corn pops, but we do go that way when we drive down to my mother-in-law's. 08:43 <@Mirage> I don't get the draw. If I was on a road trip it'd be fine, but I'm not gonna bother driving 15-20m for anythign they have 08:46 <@Mirage> Probably gonna get unfriended by my sister-in-law and step-father for commenting on their jesus freak abortion posts where I point out that 1) not everyone follows their religion, 2) not everyone following their religion believes the same way, 3) separation of church/state was intended to keep the gov't from imposing the will of some religion/belief on the people because of this 08:52 < Evilpig_> Mirage: firestone just called and say every piece of the suspension system looks fine. they think the tire just separated and caused the entire issue 08:52 <@Mirage> Probably will just delete the comment like my step-mother used to always do when she was passing on her Trump/Biden/Vaccine/etc misinformation/propaganda 08:53 <@Mirage> Evilpig_: So they're going to replace it for free under the manufacturer warranty? 08:53 * Mirage lolz 08:53 < Evilpig_> I assume if I had bought the tire there it would have been covered with their policy. not sure where that one came from. I left that up to ash to track in the past and i'm doing it now 08:58 <@Mirage> I think I need to start trolling some Trumpers by asking why, if life begins at conception and that rights begin at that time, why it is they are so worried about mexicans and other foreigners coming here to have babies for citizenship.. hell, citizenship should be at conception with that mindset, so they need to worry more about whether people coming here on vacation are getting busy 08:59 * Mirage thinks that sounds like something right up aestetix alley 09:09 <@Mirage> Been playing 'State of Decay 2' and get the urge to watch Dogma just about every time I drive a car because it reminds me of.. "What gear are you in?" "Geeeaaaaarrr?!??" *bang* 09:17 < Evilpig_> lol 09:18 <@Dagmar> Does it have the usual run-of-the-mill "PvP players" who can't handle AI combat? 09:20 <@Dagmar> Wait... it's online co-op not online griefplay? 09:25 <@Mirage> I play single so I don't have to deal w/ anyone's BS. 09:33 <@Dagmar> I may check it out this weekend 09:34 <@Dagmar> I just sort of assumed it was like all the other survival sandbox games... Good AI was too hard for them to develop, so they just make it PvP all the time and let players savage each other 09:38 <@Mirage> What they lack in AI skills they make up for in number of hordes/groups running amok 09:40 <@Dagmar> I'm watching a gameplay video to decide fi I want to get involved in this 09:43 <@Mirage> What's kind of interesting is having a "community" of 3-7 and needing to switch between them for missions, downtime, healing, etc. Ammo is always running low, weapons/vehicles degrade and need repaired (if you have a kit or the skill), and guns can jam while you're out killing stuff..leading to a lot of running 10:39 <@Dolemite> Evilpig_: Have you seen the Netflix series, "Snowflake Mountain"? 10:43 < Evilpig_> I saw it on the trackers but didn't bite. it looked awful even for me 10:44 <@Dolemite> It's worth a laugh. I watched the whole thing. 10:44 <@Dolemite> 10 snowflakes that are grown adults and still live with mom/dad 10:44 <@Dolemite> Their parents send them off to this wilderness camp under the premise of it being a luxury reality series setting 11:48 <@Mirage> https://www.cbsnews.com/live-updates/supreme-court-joe-kennedy-high-school-football-coach-school-prayer-case/ 11:48 < PigBot> Supreme Court sides with high school football coach who lost his job for praying after games (at www.cbsnews.com) https://tinyurl.com/2d8fhnpp 11:49 <@Mirage> And the hits just keep on coming.. 11:55 <@Dagmar> Actually read it and think for a moment 11:56 <@Dagmar> If the coach isn't demanding other people pray with him, and isn't getting underfoot, there's not even a problem 11:56 <@Dagmar> By the description the guy was just praying after the game was over and not demanding anyone accomodate him in any way 11:57 <@Dagmar> _That_ sort of respectful behaviour I can get behind 11:57 <@Dagmar> He probably should have made it clear he wasn't going to penalize anyone who wasn't joining him 11:57 <@Dagmar> ...just on the basis of peer pressure is a motherfucker 11:58 <@Dagmar> Otherwise, I mostly agree with the ruling 11:59 <@Mirage> If he's doing it himself alone and students notice, ask what's up, and join him then yeah. Asking the other team if they'd like to join in exhibits that it was not like that, though. 12:00 <@Mirage> I had a second grade teacher who made us all say the lord's prayer every morning after the pledge of allegiance...include Jeff Aaronson who was Jewish 12:00 <@Mirage> ^s/include/including/ 12:00 <@Dagmar> Yeah that's clearly wrong 12:01 <@Mirage> So I have an extremely jaded view of prayer in a PUBLIC school 12:08 <@Mirage> Trying to think of what they called the 'mandatory' pre-graduation church thing that my HS had. They claimed that if you didn't go to it then you wouldn't get your diploma when you walked on the stage. I had a very loud conversation with the vice principal on the matter (they wouldn't let me see the principal). Needless to say I didn't go to that but still got my diploma 12:10 <@Dagmar> I might have had fewer problems because in high school the administration had already decided they had a young supervillain on their hands 12:10 <@Dagmar> Largely they just left me alone and I didn't cause trouble 12:11 <@Dagmar> Not much. It's a heavy, ugly box slightly larger than a child's lunchbox, with somewhere between 6 and 10 power sockets 12:11 <@Dagmar> @#$@# 12:42 < Evilpig_> I remember reading about that football coach case earlier. And that write up there cites it again "At least one parent said his son "felt compelled to participate" out of fear he would lose playing time." 12:43 < Evilpig_> Him praying after the game wasn't really an issue, but when they culture around the team became that where players felt they were going to miss game time, etc if they didnt' participate it was an issue. peer pressure being a flimsy backing, it is what it is. they made a public display and if you weren't part of the majority you're an outsider at best. he should keep his prayers out of the event publicly 12:47 <@Dagmar> If he couldn't make it crystal clear, then yeah I'd agree 12:49 < Evilpig_> he's on the field in official capacity for the school he's representing them and his actions are theirs. 50yd line after a game holding a prayer is 100% endorsed by the district. the average person would see it that way, you'd have to be deep into that specific school's internal politics to know otherwise 16:36 < Evilpig_> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9REJJ7KJS10 16:37 < PigBot> ROB ZOMBIE - Shake Your Ass-Smoke Your Grass (OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO) - YouTube (at www.youtube.com) https://tinyurl.com/25zkuh8s 16:47 < Evilpig_> hey dagmar..... 16:47 < Evilpig_> what's your mood like right now? 16:48 < Evilpig_> You know KY is one of the trigger states just like TN. Here's their current shitshow. https://apps.legislature.ky.gov/record/19rs/hb148.html 16:48 < PigBot> 19RS HB 148 (at apps.legislature.ky.gov) https://tinyurl.com/27w6mj35 16:48 < Evilpig_> scroll on down to the ammednment sections and give one a click 16:48 < Evilpig_> amendment* 16:52 <@Dagmar> Freakin smoothbrains don't realize the AG isn't playing around 16:52 <@Dagmar> "or sell to any pregnant woman any medicine, drug, or other substance with the specific intent of [...] 16:53 <@Dagmar> The AG has already said point blank that states can't do that because it's exclusively up to the FDA. 16:53 <@Dagmar> So that portion of their bill is completely unenforceable 16:57 < eryc> anything is enforceable if you have people to enforce it 16:58 < eryc> doesn't mean it will stick or their won't be civil litigation but it's possible 17:12 <@Dagmar> fakuve: Yes that's the iteration of the distribution's package. It'll be fine 17:12 <@Dagmar> @#$@# 17:30 < eryc> is it legal to deport people in texas yet 17:31 < eryc> there's got a be few jews they could go after 18:31 <@Dagmar> Give it time 18:31 <@Dagmar> People _know_ jews now, because their social circles are much larger than they were in 1947 18:31 <@Dagmar> You can't easily demonize jews. 18:31 <@Dagmar> ...but _teh gays_ are sneaky. They could be literally anyone. 18:32 <@Dagmar> ...and trans people! Trans people are just hiding in bathrooms waiting to grab you in the no-no square. 18:32 <@Dagmar> I have every reason to believe these conservative fuckwits will go after gay and trans people next, for hte same reason Hitler demonized the Jewish, and they'll start by _trying to reinstate sodomy laws_ 18:34 <@Dagmar> It'll come down to how brazen they think they can get away with if they manage to drown out the Jan 6 coverage and keep anyone who wasn't an idiot on the ground out of jail 18:35 <@Dagmar> ...and what their soulless market research tells them the impact of the shit they're doing is having on their frothing little fanboys who vote for them 18:35 <@Dagmar> This isn't about rights. It's about _political power_ 19:00 -!- Netsplit *.net <-> *.split quits: PigBot 19:00 -!- Netsplit over, joins: PigBot --- Log closed Tue Jun 28 00:00:26 2022
