Weird plot for the Braveheart reboot

Yeah emoluments clause went out the window in trumps first term. Like week one, probably.

Commoners have 4hp. So, for reference, 4 successful baby scratches drops an average, normal person to zero HP and they are rendered unconscious and have about a 40% chance of death if they don’t receive medical aid.

But STR/DEX would be 1 bc 0 is not possible. Would have a -5 to hit - so 30% on an AC10 unarmored commoner.

I think this means you have a 0.3% chance of permadeath in an encounter with a baby if they only make 4 attacks and you don’t hit back and they don’t keep scratching your unconscious body.

If they attack you 10 times (1 minute of scratching w/ 6 sec turns), there is a 20% chance they land 4 scratches on you and you have a 40% chance to permadie once downed - so 8% chance of permadeath in one 10 turn encounter with a baby with the same stipulations as above.

Art of the deal, folks

Go to the doctor. Especially if you are in otherwise OK shape and your capacity for exercise doesn’t seem to improve with practice. Being unable to walk for one hour without severe fatigue is pretty good evidence of exercise intolerance.

Exercise intolerance is basically an inability to perform physical activities that someone your age typically would be able to.

This can be evidence of various underlying health issues (heart, lungs, muscle disorders, nutritional deficiencies).

I’ll believe it when I see it

是很漂亮！It looks like a font. Extremely neat. Though, the “tails” on some of your letters are so short that they might be mistaken for other letters.

Like your P could be mistaken for a D

Fair enough. You aren’t wrong. I think we’re just concerned with different points here, which is fine.

If that were true, there would be a carve out in the provision for the use of gasses with transient effects, like cs gas. There is none. Just the opposite, there is a carve out for their use against civilians, but they are prohibited in warfare.

Many other countries do not use CS gas in warfare due to the CWC (Australia, Canada, Greece, India, Netherlands, New Zealand, Spain, etc. - there are a lot). https://ihl-databases.icrc.org/en/customary-ihl/v2/rule75 => pulls provisions from the laws of various countries as well as combat manuals detailing the usages of riot control gasses and their various rationales.

The US chooses not to interpret the CWC as banning riot control gasses for war, that is a minority position and the US gets away with it like it does many breaches of international law. The US uses riot control gas weapons against civilians… liberally and in a way that most of the world would see as police brutality. It’s use is on the rise globally, but it has been used extremely widely by US cops for a long time and in problematic ways.

If it is used to disperse dangerous protests as a deterrant to advance, sure, I get it. But that is not how it is typically used by US cops. In the US cops have killed a number of people by firing tear gas cannisters at them from close range. They deploy tear gas in the middle of crowds causing panic and the risk of stampede deaths/crowd surges. They deploy tear gas behind crowds causing them to move toward police. They deploy tear gas in situations that do not warrant it, on peaceful protests that may involve at-risk people. They use tear gas in enclosed spaces, increasing the risk of death due to respiratory distress.

Human rights groups have noticed this pattern of behavior by cops in the US and increasingly globally. You can find dozens of articles and studies by the CFC, ACLU, Red Cross, Amnesty International, Physicians for Human Rights, etc. It is a majority position among human rights groups that these agents should be banned or heavily restricted.

In response to a comment saying that it’s torture, me stating that it’s banned for use in war by the geneva convention?

Well, connecting the dots there, that if it’s too dangerous/painful/not controllable for warfare, it probably shouldn’t be allowed to be used on masses of civilians expressing their rights.

UNLOADS

Fun fact: Tear gas is banned by the Geneva Convention as a weapon of war under the chemical weapons provision, but it’s a-ok for use on civilians by law enforcement.

oh how the turn tables

EDIT: Thanks for the gold, kind stranger!

Also, even if you do pull over somewhere safe and put your hazards on, drive slowly, maybe call 911 to confirm it’s a real cop if the car looks weird, etc. the cop may freak out on you. It’s been known to happen.

I really don’t think original buldak noodles are very spicy at all. Like, I can feel it, but it isn’t what I would consider to be very spicy. They also don’t taste good, though. Like 3/10 spiciness.

Typical buffalo sauce or name brands like tabasco, cholula, etc. are not noticeably spicy to me.like 0/10 spiciness.

I have a decent spice tolerance, but I also don’t enjoy eating super spicy things “just because”. I want my food to actually taste good. Being able to eat spicy food lets me taste more flavor in hot peppers, but there’s zero point in eating really spicy stuff just to prove you can, imo.

Yeah it was his kid’s “career fair” day at school so he wanted something representative to show them

Don’t jump to conclusions just yet. Epstein had lots of ties to people. Not all of them are pedos. Look at the actual correspondence they had, there isn’t anything incriminating except the mere association with him.

And additionally, looking at the emails he actually sent and received from Epstein, they seem totally innocuous. Until I see actual evidence of wrongdoing, I’m going to withhold judgement. None about anything untoward, just literally stuff about politics and linguistics. Chomsky seemed to be corresponding with a similar rushed tone like he does in other correspondence - man answers a lot of emails.

By contrast, Trump has many accounts of sexual harrassment and assault perpetrated by him, lots of circumstantial evidence tying him to the shady side of Epstein’s dealings, etc.
